As soon as I got started a pop-up storm built up right over me. Thirty minutes and 1 inch of rain later I was able to start my project. That was the best rainfall I have had in some time.

John it will be on Levi's site tomorrow....tropical tidbits.com.................July 19: As of the 12Z run on Wednesday, the GFS model will be upgraded. Unlike the recently upgraded ECMWF, the new GFS behaves a bit differently in the tropics compared to the previous version.

well awhile ago had a few more sprinkles,but suns out here..no storminess at all...good night folks.

Good evening. All quiet around here. Looks like a dry period coming up in these parts. Looks like the general Melbourne area were the big winners today.

Nothing at my house today. All around me.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but when I go to the Tropical Tidbits site, all's I see is stuff from June. I used to watch it all the time, no problem.

Gee ALOT of Lightning and Thunder in the gulf and overhead,woke me up....

Good afternoon. Zip here too but I wasn't expecting anything. One very small cell did pop up about 10 miles to my NNW and dropped half an inch on a few lucky folks. The distant thunder was soothing. The cell has since poofed.

The ULL is pretty much over my head now Largo. The north flow on the west side pushed in drier air today thus the reduced precip here. Once it moves west and we get into more a southerly flow on the east side the moisture should return and increase rain chances.

Static loop.

TGIF. Had a nice mid-day shower yesterday drop .35" and then we got a glancing hit by a large, strong outflow storm at 9:30 last night that dropped another .10" That storm I believe was enhanced by the upper low that came in from the Atlantic and it extended from west of JAX all the way to the Gulf south of Cedar Key. It looked like it packed quite a good punch in some areas, but it was collapsing quickly by the time it got to my location. Looks like more rain chances for most everyone through next week.
