I think the eastern PA activity that has been west of Hunterdon is going to get us tonight, but we'll see.
-
Latest HRRR hits us hard tonight, which seems possible based on the way radar looks.
-
Radar certainly looks good for tonight with all of the activity in eastern PA.
-
Finally a little downpour here but it lasted only 90 seconds, lol.
-
I can hear the thunder to the east now after hearing it to the west earlier. Frustrating that torms missing here in all directions. I do see on radar more popping up to the south in Middlesex County, and this time a little more to the west. So there's still some hope of getting clipped by a downpour here this afternoon.
-
I see 18z HRRR hits our area pretty good around 10pm, but as you said who knows. The cell that popped up to the south that caused the current warning for Middlesex County will miss our area to the east. We might get through the afternoon with almost nothing here, but hopefully later tonight will deliver.
-
At least we've gotten a good amount of rain in July which knocked our area back down to a moderate drought after being in the severe drought. i was hoping for some heavy rain today though. This early round is mostly missing our area, but we'll have to see what the potential round for later tonight does. Maybe we'll get some decent rain from that one around 9 or 10pm.
-
No surprise. I was puzzled when they issued the warning for northern Middlesex County because you could see on radar that it was going to go northwest of here.
-
Radar not very promising despite the warning for northern Middlesex County.
-
Yeah I think South Plainfield must be close to 3 inches of rain. I'm close to the border of South Plainfield so this heavy just barely missed me a few miles to the east.
-
Yeah just some very slow odd movement with these storms in our area. If I was just a few miles to the east I would have gotten a lot of rain. Still it was just enough to give things a watering here.
-
Yep and I was consistently on the western edge of it so not too much rain here. Starting to see some sun in the western sky. A quarter inch is about going to do it here.
-
That cell popped up almost on top of me, but I was on the western edge of it. So not too bad here -- mostly moderate rain with some low end heavy rain for a little while. I saw a few lightning strikes a few miles to my east. 0.20" here so far. Still some moderate rain coming down but it's almost over. Looking forward to see a lot more rain tomorrow.
-
The soil here has dried out again so I'll be watering the vegetable garden today for the first time in awhile. It's great that we pulled out of the severe drought, but we're still in a moderate drought and need more rain. So hopefully early to mid next week will deliver. In the meantime this low humidity weather is spectacular. The dewpoint here right now is only 51 -- feels great.
-
Very little activity today too. Probably 90% of the area will stay dry.
