I wasn't sure if it was gonna get down to you. Very close. It's coming down in buckets here.
-
Temp is down to 71 now with this storm going on.
-
Yep some lightning and strong winds. Heavy rain. For a change a storm that's hitting me here in the extreme northern part of the County but is missing you in Metuchen. Lately most of the storms have been hitting you and mostly missing me just to the south.
-
Pouring now. Wind-driven rain with strong north winds.

I'm getting into the southern part of that storm. Starting to rain here.
-
If he was in Plainfield, but I think he's still to the west in Franklin Township so he's missing it.
-
I hear the thunder and a very dark sky to the north. It's gonna go right over Plainfield, but I'm gonna be right on the southern edge of it here. Hopefully I'll get into it. Getting windy here now too.
-
Here it was just moderate rain for a few minutes with that small cell. Not enough to give things much of a watering, but I got enough rain yesterday that I won't have to water today or tomorrow. Then with what looks likely Tuesday through Saturday, we probably won't have to water for quite awhile. It'll be quite a change from all the watering that was needed the last several weeks.
-
Yeah it looks similar to that 2 minute downpour we had the other day.
-
Not anything like yesterday, but some small downpours popping up in Hunterdon and Somerset. We might see something.
-
I see lots of 1.5" to 2" totals in Middlesex County. Of course just a few miles to my south and east like usual. I ended up with 0.68". I don't know what it is that constantly causes the heavier storms to slip just to the south of my area here in the NW corner of the County. But at least I got almost three quarters of an inch, so decent. That seemed like a deluge after how dry it has been lately.
-
Odd that there was almost no lightning with the storm here. Not as impressive as it looked and radar and a very weak t-storm as far as wind and lightning, but the main thing is it poured. I got 0.62" from it. Finally a nice very heavy downpour that was enough to give the vegetable garden a good watering, so I'm satisfied.

Extremely heavy rain here too. Not much wind or lightning as you said, but the important thing is we're getting a good soaking.
-
No warning with that cell right now, but it's going to come down in buckets. I'm excited.
-
Yeah storms are strengthening in eastern Hunterdon right now. Radar looks pretty good for us right now.
-
The southern part of the line in PA looks a lot stronger than the northern part, but hopefully the northern part will pulse up as it moves east. Yesterday a lot of Hunterdon, Somerset, Mercer and Middlesex got screwed and I'm hoping we don't see a repeat today. We really need some rain. Hopefully this line pulses up.
-
Most of the storms stay to the north and west for the afternoon, but then HRRR hits us hard around 8pm. Hopefully widespread activity.

I hope we do well today or tonight. The models look pretty good. Hopefully the heavy downpours will be a little more widespread than they were yesterday. Really could use significant rain ... it has been a few weeks since since I've gotten even just a half inch of rain here. I know it's looking encouraging for the week too, especially late week with potential heavy rain from Debbie. Hopefully this dry pattern is about to be busted.
-
Yeah just a shade too late for my location. That has happened several times this summer, but at least I got a quarter inch. That's a start.
-
Hopefully. HRRR says it's gonna fall apart by the time it gets here, but who knows.
-
Nice. I've noticed that has been a theme this summer with your area getting heavier amounts than mine. We haven't done very well overall, but when we have gotten storms the heaviest has missed me just a few miles to the south. It hasn't worked out well being in the extreme northern part of the County. I hope we can get a more widespread event where everyone does well. We had that one nice line that hit almost everyone a few weeks ago, but other than that it has been very hit or miss this summer with the heavy rain.

Nothing down in Atlantic City, but see I got a quarter inch here. Pretty meh but at least it was just enough to water the garden for the first time in quite a awhile. I see other parts of Piscataway got closer to a half inch. The heaviest missed me just a few miles to the south and east. I hope tomorrow's potential event is more impressive. I see from radar estimates that a lot of north-central NJ didn't do well today. The very significant amounts were well up in northern NJ.
-
I just got that 2 minute downpour from that same cell here. Anyway I'm going to Atlantic City today (leaving in about a half hour) so I won't be here to share in the excitement with you guys if our area finally gets hit by heavy rain later today, but I'll hope to come home late tonight to news that our area got hit. Boy do we need the rain. I'm glad we have another good chance this weekend. Having a good chance hasn't worked out for our area in recent weeks, but hopefully this time will be different.
-
A cell popped up just a little to our east. Too bad it just missed.
-
It was just a very brief minor downpour here that dropped 0.05". Not enough to water the garden, but at least the ground is wet and I see puddles in the street for a change lol. It did drop the temp to 80, so some nice relief from the heat. I see there are a few more small downpours behind it, so hopefully we'll get some more.
