Hello everyone!
It's happening again right now.
The strangest thing is recurring here in Denton, Texas: whenever area radar shows a huge line of thunderstorms moments away from us, just before it arrives it all separates and goes around us--like a giant herd of mice passing by, but avoiding, a sleeping cat. This is a regular, even expected, occurrence here.
Rain events attract surges of area visitors to my web site, and many of these folks are getting pounded by the heavy rain that has avoided my VP2. So they are repeatedly tuning in and finding my scant rain amounts, giving rise to some doubt about my accuracy, no doubt.
Maybe not. I don't know.
I could speculate as to what may be causing this rain-avoidance phenomenon--e.g. slightly higher temperature, or air pollution, or just plain coincidence, or some sort of voodoo hex, or biased observation, or am I just crazy? (don't answer that), or whatever--but before I do speculate, I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same sort of thing.
I'm dying to know...
