The amounts are miniscule, but there's no denying a two-day rain event (this late in the spring!?) with perhaps a third measurable event in progress. Today's tally: 0.03 inches.

Thunderstorms in Pasadena cancelling concerts. Floodwatches in the high desert. Here in Silver Lake, dang if the clouds above this morning didn't dribble out a measurable amount of rain to the tune of two-hundies by gauge check bringing us within a 10th of 32 inches for the season.

At 5:15 this morning I thought the heater had rumbled on, but no. It was the sound of a relatively substantial cloudburst that mostly wrapped up by daybreak, but when combined with yesterday's and last night's raindroppings totaled out to another almost quarter-inch at this morning's gauge check.

#SilverLakeStormWatch In the immortal words of Ned Ryerson to Phil Conners in the award-winning documentary "Groundhog Day," "It's a doooozy!" which translates to a whopping 2.61" of recorded rain that fell upon our backyard precipitometer at gauge check this morning (roughly 1.91" of which dropped between now and 5pm yesterday). I don't know how we haven't all just washed away and I'm very much hoping no one has.

#SilverLakeStormWatch A twofer, from this morning's and yesterday's measurements. Gauge check Saturday at 0530 yielded almost 9/10ths of an inch whereas the drizzly smatterings that followed only amounted to 3/100ths of an inch this morning. I blame Daylight Saving Time because I hate "springing" the eff forward with an unfathomable and deathless loathing, but I digress.

#SilverLakeStormWatch Winter ain't through yet.

#SilverLakeStormWatch Seventh straight day of measurable rain and it was strong with 1.02" tallied by this morning's gauge check. Would I love it if before this system checks out it squeezes at least another 0.01" onto our backyard, making an unprecedented 8-day measurable rain streak? Of course I would.

#SilverLakeStormWatch Just an interim tally as we look at more rain to come later today and possible into tomorrow morning: Since rain started falling on February 22 through to this morning's check, my backyard rain gauge has measured 6.20" anchored by the 3.70" found Saturday morning. In comparison, the annual total for the previous year in LA was 10.31", and the year before that? A bone-dry 5.00".
#SilverLakeStormWatch Another day, another winter storm with a total additional half-inch found at gauge check this morning. It may be too cold and wet for too long for many, but I am eating up this extended meteorological rarity with a spoon.

#SilverLakeStormWatch After a never-before-seen more than five mindblowing inches in two days I'm grateful the system was able to eke out just a leeetle beet more -- 0.02" -- so as to make it a three-day streak with the potential from the next storm of giving us five -- maybe even six straight measurable rain days. #CoCoRaHS ☔️ Running Total: 22.09" ☔️ 02/27/23 Total: 0.02" ☔️ Season Total: 22.11"

#SilverLakeStormWatch Well we did it. Following up on the record-breaking one-day amount of 3.70" registered yesterday, there was juuuust enough hydrometeoric activitay -- 1.35" at this morning's gauge check -- to shatter the two-day total by putting us above five combined inches (5.04 to be exact). Looks like we might have a break today and then more at the start of the work week. Stay tuned. #CoCoRaHS
