My apologies for posting a misleading statement in my Tuesday report. I did not mean to imply any sort of inaccuracy of my VP2 tipping bucket rain gauge. My friend Marty made the necessary repairs/fixes and […]

Greetings Harry! Thanks for your post. I sure have missed hearing from you about your daily station data and/or monthly summary for August. Are you having problems? I have had problems of late myself, with my station down most of the time the past week so I have not posted during that time till a brief report this past Tuesday the 18th. My friend…[Read more]

My apologies for not pasting a daily blog report from my station since Tuesday, September 11. I have had problems with my VP2 and it has been down more than up over the past week. My friend Marty came over on […]

Loved your post Charlie! I have been following Florence updates very frequently the past week. Looks like up here in central MD we will get the most significant effects early next week from heavy rain remnants. Path is really up in the air (literally) after it comes ashore on Friday. Love the tropicaltidbits website, I checked it out and…[Read more]

Tuesday made its small contribution (0.28″) to our wet week, how wet will depend on what kind of initial visit we get at the end of the week from Hurricane Florence which looks more like it will mostly be out of […]

Friday turned cloudy by afternoon after some morning hazy sun, with temps holding in the mid 80s because of the clouds, then cumulus clouds bubbled up quickly in the late afternoon and early evening, and we got […]

Thursday was mostly sunny through most of the day with a few scattered cumulus at times in the afternoon, hot and humid like it has been over the past several days. But then there was a “dry” thunderstorm about […]

Hi Cathie! Great post. Hope you had a great labor day. I noticed in the title line for this post the last word says “Michigag” instead of “Michigan”. You might want to fix that up. Just noticed it going through all the posts the past few days. Thanks for keeping us up on the latest weather updates in the Durand MI area. Kevin

Thanks Cathie. Makes more sense. I found West Branch on my Large Print Road Atlas. Looks like it is about 20-30 miles SE of Gaylord off of I-75. I just love travel and following routes with good maps. I was always the navigator on family trips while growing up.

I’ve seen more flooding in Maryland. Anywhere close to Earth Networks or is it another area in Maryland?

There are a handful of Montgomery County stations where I live and where Earth Networks is located, but there are no reporting stations within a few miles of Earth Networks Headquarters in Germantown. You will see station like mine at MD-MG-115 in West Rockville, and several fairly close by stations in Germantown, Gaithersburg and Rockville. The highest amount stations are in areas north and northeast of Baltimore with a few just to the south of that city. I saw a video of a flooded bridge in Harford County, which is a good 25-30 miles NE of Baltimore. Thanks for your question Nathan.

Hi again Cathie. I double checked the location of Lapeer and found it considerably south of the Gaylord MI forecast office area of responsibility (AOR). It showed up in Google Maps east of Flint and within the Detroit/Pontiac NWS forecast office AOR. So I went to their page and unfortunately they apparently did not go out to Lapeer that I could…[Read more]

Thanks for the great report Cathie. I dug up some more information on the 4 confirmed tornadoes from the Gaylord MI NWS website. I didn’t see an F2 tornado in this report – 2 F0 and 2 F1 tornadoes and they didn’t use Lapeer that I could see. But they mentioned the same counties you did. Perhaps the F2 tornado you reported from Lapeer was evaluated…[Read more]
