I got 0.72" here tonight. 1.90 over the last 5 days. I agree, we've had enough rain and could use a drying out period now. Looks like a nice dry period the next 5 days with lower humidity and near normal summer temps. I'm looking forward to it. The high humidity with rain chances will come back on Tuesday. By then I'll be wanting rain again.

You predicted at least a half inch earlier, and that's gonna be a good call for my location. I just hit a half inch and it's almost over. Gonna end up a little over a half inch here. As Warlock said it was kind of meh. A solid heavy t-storm instead of severe, but it was nice to get a good soaking and see a pretty good lightning show. I see the southern part of the line strengthened and a new warning is out, so it is gonna be more severe for southern Middlesex County and Monmouth County.
-
I just had a very close lightning strike.
-
Pouring here too. Some lightning. Had some wind gusts in the 30s earlier. It's well below severe levels, but a nice storm.
-
Gusty here now and the rain has started.
-
Nice to have a pretty solid line coming in instead of the hit or miss stuff we've had this summer, even though the storms are below severe levels.
-
The most widespread activity is supposed to be way later. HRRR has it around 8 to 9pm. Hopefully the majority of the area will get hit then.
-
Latest HRRR hits us hard here around 8pm. Hoping to see a good storm tonight! I'm also looking forward to the nice break in the humidity. Dew points in 50s on Friday will feel great. That looks like one of the nicest days of the summer. Dew points will go up a little over the weekend, but I don't think they'll get back to the 70s until Tuesday. A nice break from the high humidity.
-
Hopefully tomorrow will be a more widespread event so most people can get in on the action.

I was in Longhorn Steakhouse in Piscataway when there was a heavy downpour with wind. I was wondering if it was gonna be the same situation with a storm missing my home by a few miles to the south, but I got home and saw that there was a heavy downpour here that dropped a quick quarter inch. So at least I got something here. It's good to continue to have moist soil for the vegetable garden during this big heat. I see this next round now is missing to the south as it goes through central and southern Middlesex County.
-
The storm missed me to the south but at least it provided some relief from the heat. Temp is down to 80. We'll see if any of those storms in PA make it to our area, but I'm going out to dinner now so won't be following them.
-
Congrats! This has been happening lately where a storm misses me just to the south and hits you hard. I've been having bad luck with the strong storms missing me just to the south here in the extreme northern part of the County, but at least I got enough rain in recent days.
-
The northern part of that cell fell apart, so it's mainly missing me to the south. Just a light shower and a little wind here as I was near the edge of it. I hear lots of thunder to the south.
-
That storm moving into Somerset County looks pretty good. Hopefully it will hit both of us.
-
It did make it to 100 here today. Now down to 97. I see a few stations in north-central NJ made it to 101 or 102. Very impressive. Watching those storms in PA. Doesn't look like a big widespread event, but I'm hoping those storms heading towards Hunterdon County will make it our area. Radar looks pretty good right now.
-
That map is for tomorrow, not today. We're expecting more widespread storms tomorrow.
-
Already up to 96 here. Looks likely that we're going to hit 100 here.
-
It's usually a safe bet that the 3km NAM is overdone, lol. That thing is INSANE.
-
95 with a dew point of 72 here right now. Good chance we'll hit 99 or 100 tomorrow.
-
Yeah not a surprise that SPC extended that slight risk well to the east on the last update. Those storms could make it close to our area.
-
Yeah like you said we probably have to wait until Wednesday for our next storms, but you never know. Slight chance we could see another storm tonight, and I would also keep an eye on tomorrow night. The severe storms in PA tomorrow are supposed to fall apart before getting to us, but it's certainly possible that something could hold together for us tomorrow night.
-
Just like Stormlover, I slept right through it early this morning. I was very surprised to see that I got 0.42" here. We really got lucky the last 2 days. Crazy how it worked out. All the potential and big hype for mid to late last week and we got almost nothing out of it, yet we got hit good the last 2 days when it was only a slim chance. You just never know ... it's freak luck with these summer storms. Anyway I'm glad we got a good amount of rain before the big heat.
-
Looks like it's about over. 0.26" here from two quick downpours, about the same amount I got yesterday morning. Not bad. Didn't get the big storm that Allsnow got, but it was enough to give the vegetable garden another decent watering. It was important to get some rain before the big heat the next few days. I'm glad I won't have to water tomorrow.
-
This one is pretty similar to the last one I got. At least between the 2 I'm getting enough rain for a decent watering.
-
Yep pretty good downpour here again.
