We've now gone six days without any measurable rain at the airport and we missed out on the showers that fell across eastern Iowa very early this morning.
And, the 10-day forecast looks pretty dry, too.
If a little disturbance doesn't drop in from Canada in the northwesterly flow of air aloft and we remain dry through next Wednesday, that would be 15 consecutive days with no measurable rain in the Quad Cities.
I know it's a long-shot to be dry that long, but if that happens, it'll be the longest dry spell since this past winter when we went from January 13-26, 2013, with no measurable rain or melted snow. That was 14 days.
For the record, we did have some snow flurries during that period and 0.2" of snow was reported on January 13, 2013, but melted down, it didn't amount to 0.01", which is considered measurable precipitation.
