Today is 5/27 and those clouds around 5:00 PM seemed to split and miss us in Santiago. What the heck! I was looking forward to a good rain!

Maybe OP has something there …

I wonder if Electric golf carts were required, would that CHANGE the local rainfall and temperatures?
It would raise the temperature of lots of very angry Villagers.

I am not a meterologist but I talked to an air force navigator and he said that storms have a hard time climbing over big hills which the historic side is built on. Therefore the storms slide around the hill instead of going over top of them so that is the reason for lack of rain in the historical side of the villages.

Right, I’m sure the 52 foot elevation steers the storms away from that area????

That is a better explanation than the one about air conditioners.

It rains more in Ocala and Leesburg than TV.
I will text god and open a bug report.

God knows that in TV there are lots of gas carts that emit lots of carbon dioxide and water that feeds the plant life in the area.. God reroutes rain clouds to other surroundings that need it more.

It's just sound logic.

In all likelihood, much more sensible heat flux comes off the residential and commercial roofs, and roads and parking lots than is given off by heat pump condensers. If it was still virgin land there would be more latent heat flux. Land use changes can have an impact on the local weather but I doubt there is much impact on the annual precipitation totals.

Warm rising air holds more water, keeping it from falling from the passing clouds. Any meteorologist have an idea?

Nice rain today. I'm predicting the start of the rainy season.

It's the Indians in New Eastport..they are performing anti-rain dances every week just to dry up the villages...SMH.

Don't look outside................Conspiracy theories might be impacted.
