  1. Past hour
  2. Yeah by radar that storm looked very severe.
  3. PPl customers without power. Customers currently without power: 125,284 Last Updated: Jul 05 07:30 AM
  4. They managed to put road blocks by the downed trees, haha. The people without power barely moved all night, so I suspect this may be a long long duration event. It sucks I can't even get ice to save my food Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  5. The drought just keeps winning. Boring ass weather continues.
  6. Wasnt a fun storm… lost some trees and an xbox :/ .
  7. It is basically falling at its steepest rate since the real drop began. Showers over the next few days should slow or stop the bleeding for a short time.
  8. Nothing but some light rain last night in Vienna. Overcast sky.
  9. Ended up with 0.32" of rain which I guess is better than nothing but am hoping for more the next couple of days to get all this heat-storing infrastructure cooled down. Looks like I bottomed out at 72 and it's currently overcast and 73 with dp 72.
  10. 0.89 from last night is the total so far and is probably similar for PF. Based on radar, I think they got a lot more down in the southern part of the county. Forecast has us dry here through tonight and more showers tomorrow. Other than last night, it has been extremely dry here.
  11. No morning update from the Spc yet but the national weather service seems pretty confident we are going to see more severe weather in cpa today. Highlight Changed Discussion -- 998 FXUS61 KCTP 050843 AFDCTP Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 443 AM EDT Sun Jul 5 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... * Dense Fog Advisory issued early this morning for the western and central Alleghenies * Targeted Moderate Risk Excessive Rainfall Outlook (level 3/4) for east-central Pennsylvania through tonight * Flood Watch issued this afternoon through Monday for east- central Pennsylvania && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) Breakdown of heat wave pattern gives rise to severe storms and torrential downpours today and Monday && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1: Breakdown of heat wave pattern gives rise to severe storms and torrential downpours today and Monday 40 severe thunderstorm warnings issued in the past 2 days. The days following a transition from an extreme heat pattern are often marked by severe/active weather, and that trend continues through at least Monday. As the heat dome shifts to the west and troughing develops over the Great Lakes/Ohio Valley/Northeast, the upcoming week will feature relatively cooler (more seasonal) temperatures with a bullish signal for almost daily rain chances particularly early and late in the week. In the very near term, clearing sky and nearly calm wind following last evenings widespread rainfall has resulted in areas of dense fog over the western and central Alleghenies. IR sat shows the fog expanding as higher clouds peel away. We issued a DFA through 13Z/9AM with several ASOS and RWIS sites already reporting 1/4 mile visibility. Another active wx day ahead with dual severe T-storm and flash flood risks to manage. We anticipate another diurnal uptick in convective development within a very warm, moist and increasingly unstable environment indicative of steep low-mid level lapse rates. Pockets of stronger deep layer shear 30+ kt may exist in the upper OH Valley and eastern PA, but the general expectation is for pulse to multicell storms to once again merge/form into line segments with some cold pool organization to promote damaging wind potential from mid afternoon into the evening. SPC placed the highest damaging wind probs near/southeast of I81/78 where max temps should reach 90F. Focus will should evolve from severe to flash flood/hydro ops by later this evening and continue into Monday as a robust +RA signal continues to manifest over east-central PA. Atmos conditions will be quite favorable for heavy rainfall and flash flooding potential with 2+ inch pwats correlating to intense rain rates >2 in/hr and repeating/back-building storms along q-stnry/wavy frontal zone. Latest HREF/REFS mean QPF guidance is signaling 1-3" in the 24hr period ending 00Z Tue with PMM/LPMM max values exceeding 5 inches. WPC coordinated a targeted and relatively small moderate excessive rainfall outlook (level 3/4) within a broader level 2/4 or SLGT risk area. We issued a relatively large/broad flood watch along with WFO PHI as there remains some spatial uncertainty to exactly where the greatest rainfall will occur. The setup (multiple rounds of slow moving/torrential downpours) favors locally significant flash flooding particularly in terrain areas and highly urbanized corridors. One limiting factor is obviously the drought conditions and corresponding elevated FFG values that may offset the overall risk to some extent https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=CTP&issuedby=CTP&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off
  12. This is just like the old times when we get a deluge following record heat. The current heavy rain flash flood potential looks like it could be the most significant event here since the last ones in August 2024 and July 2023. Widespread 2-4” and localized pockets over 5”+ where the best training set up. This is also the most juiced that we have seen the SPC HREF since then. This will be the first chance NYC and some other spots see a wetter than average month since way back in May 2025. The heat over the next 10 days will shift to the West with the potential for over a 600 dm ridge. In the past when we have had 103°+ major heatwaves and heavy rains, the maximum temperatures remained the highest of the summer. So hopefully this will turn out to be the highest temperatures which reached 105°-106°of the entire summer. While this doesn’t rule out more 95° to around 100° heat, the patterns in the past haven’t been able to follow up with as much heat in the following extreme heat to very wet.

  15. What happened to the njweather.org site
  16. Models have been pretty consistent. Jackpot Southern Connecticut but substantial rain almost to the pike. Looks like more than a half an inch.
  17. I guess I should apologize for my rant last night. A lot of you had damage and I'm sure some are still without power this morning. That sucks. I guess I just love good, solid storms, and for some reason Tamaqua is protected from getting them, so it's frustrating to miss out on so many highly anticipated storm outbreaks.
  18. Ask CoastalWx about such an experience when he lived in Dorchester!
