Thanks Bro! I'll report this in my Newsletter. I've had 3.07 since July 1. Last year I had 7. 17" in July.

I’ve been on a mountain tops as a t-storm popped up and saw long hair float straight up. Immediately ran for cover,

Juuussstt to the river . Shocking

Shocked to see those areas in Slight. Shocked. Let’s get EWR another G65

0.08” at MSP yesterday. Extended forecast looks good temp wise, but could use more precipitation.

Just 0.10” yesterday. Everything is lush and green again after the past week. 74F/DP 73F

Yeah only .38” but the lightning was all I needed to see.

You did say NE MD was the place to be yesterday.

We ride

Very well documented for decades...

I believe you. Marietta had 5.8” iirc and you were sitting under it longer.

Guess you won’t have to worry about watering for a few days. Been a summer to Remember with all these near misses,then out of nowhere these heavy storms that just dump half foot of rain. I still wonder how much of your 7.52 ended up being runoff?

Todays storms might have better potential. The sun is out already and the atmosphere is going to heat up again and support the convection already on radar in western PA SPC has central , southern and western NJ is marginal risk area just west of the immediate coast. UPDATE -SLIGHT RISK NOW AND EXPANDED - MAP JUST UPDATED !

Coming in after dark tonight they probably will

Yeah yesterday seemed to skip over us

Learn something new everyday. I've been noticing the Hawks have been getting louder. Happens every late summer. Always thought they were prepping for migration. Apparently not.

Interestingly, there is pre-1894 data available. From 1873 forward there is daily temperature. I am somewhat awed by the level of scientific competency shown in these (and other) old records. Observer is hard to read, but not Jesse Green. Almost certainly there are usable archives at West Chester that would provide more information, including photos. Tracking this stuff down and building a story line would be a perfect cross-disciplinary project for a college intern. Would you mind if I had Claude run your method above on Chester County and nearby stations? The output would be a complete human-readable timeline for how reference stations are used to arrive at adjusted records for these stations--something the OP has requested numerous times. As I understand it the actual NCEI process involves matrix math, too complex for easy communication if you ask me; a manual method using your approach will be easy for anyone to understand.

Let’s collapse again

It completely collapsed as it hit the river . They all have this summer

Wild storm here with constant CTG lightning last night-moved in really fast

Due to an inverted trough, heavy showers are occurring in the area moving from off the ocean including here. Rain started just after 8AM.

Shocked, looked like decent lighting in Ellington
