  1. Past hour
  2. 1/2” will be a lot for LI lol. I guess I shouldn’t have shut off the sprinklers
  3. Dumping rain. Maybe Raleigh breaks the all time July record
  4. Just hit 2" on the day. That dropped an inch in like 25 min.
  5. Looks like more scattered stuff developing to the NW. Hearing continuous thunder. 1.82" for the day as of now
  6. Well, had a tornado warning with the couplet basically over my head. Just a lot of torrential rain, incredible lightning and a bit of wind.
  7. That section and/or the one behind it looks like it will be directly over the round valley/spruce run reservoirs, which I think have been the lowest in NJ. Hopefully very beneficial. https://dep.nj.gov/drought/current-conditions/#reservoir-levels
  8. And I just got another pop-up type storm adding on more beneficial rains .
  9. 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.
  10. LOL ended up with .20 rain.
  11. That area developing near Bridgewater looks impressive.
  12. Also I must be having radar hallucinations, but there seems to be a curl of some really intense rain in Hunterdon County.
  13. Lightning is like a strobe light the last 15 minutes near Creedmoor and 540.
  14. Absolutely pouring again. Well over 2” now.
  15. 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
  16. 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.
  17. Tornado on the ground in eastern Durham county, radar indicated.
  18. Pouring again in Chester with lightening and decent thunder.
  19. I’m out watering. At least some of the MD rain will keep the Potomac running.
  20. 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.
