  1. Past hour
  2. We’re going to get slammed by the convection over Passaic/Essex and then the stuff near Bridgewater. We’ll see if the real heavy stuff North of Philly makes it here.
  3. LOL ended up with .20 rain.
  4. That area developing near Bridgewater looks impressive.
  5. Also I must be having radar hallucinations, but there seems to be a curl of some really intense rain in Hunterdon County.
  6. Lightning is like a strobe light the last 15 minutes near Creedmoor and 540.
  7. Absolutely pouring again. Well over 2” now.
  8. Today's Highs: TEB: 85 PHL: 85 New Brnswck: 83 TTN: 83 ACY: 83 EWR: 82 BLM: 81 LGA: 81 ISP: 80 JFK: 80 NYC: 79
  9. We received approximately 3.45 inches of rain in Lower Macungie during the past 24 hours, and it came in three separate events of more than one inch each. This is exactly the type of beneficial rainfall our farmers, streams, and groundwater resources have desperately needed after months of persistent dry conditions. For once, the Lehigh Valley received meaningful rainfall instead of watching storms repeatedly weaken, split, or miss the areas north of South Mountain. The response of the Little Lehigh Creek says it all. The creek is now at or near bankfull—the first time I have personally seen it at that level in more than four months. While the heavier rainfall has obviously created localized flooding concerns, we should not lose sight of the larger issue. Much of the Lehigh Valley has needed substantial, sustained rainfall for months. This event finally delivered enough water to provide meaningful soil-moisture recharge, improve streamflow, and give agricultural areas the soaking rainfall they badly needed. One heavy rainfall period does not erase months of precipitation and groundwater deficits, but this is certainly a major improvement and hopefully the beginning of a change in the pattern rather than another isolated event. After months of watching beneficial rainfall repeatedly miss the Lehigh Valley, 3.45 inches in three substantial rounds is a welcome sight.
  10. Tornado on the ground in eastern Durham county, radar indicated.
  11. Pouring again in Chester with lightening and decent thunder.
  12. I’m out watering. At least some of the MD rain will keep the Potomac running.
  13. Absolutely dumping rain here in Brier creek. Lightning has been very impressive. I think a street light got struck as there was a bright flash driving home near Wake Med hospital in BC. Flash Flood warnings in effect here as well .57" so far this evening.
  14. Heavy rain; vivid lightning, strong winds in Northern OC
  15. That training makes it all the way to central Jersey. Impressive. .
  16. It looks fake. Not saying there wasn't a funnel (there almost definitely was), but I doubt it looked like that.
  17. Just listening to NOAA Weather radio and heard the auto-guy call your area "Qwee-care-town. So far the rain band has diffused over me and I only have 0.10" in the bucket after a couple passes, with only light rain sitting over me at the moment. Not complaining since I got 0.90" yesterday . Currently 70 with dp 69 (had a high of 83 today)..
  18. I've never disliked a meteorologist more than this bum. He steals the NWS forecasts and then trashes them. Proof that a social media following doesn't equal quality. Embarrassed that he's from my town.
  19. Fairfax county is an absolute embarrassment on that map.
