  1. It's coming down in buckets again here now. This 3rd torrential downpour will take us over an inch of rain. We're getting a nice soaking tonight.
  2. Yeah it's just hitting here now. Starting to pour again and just had a very close lightning strike. My DirecTV just went out again too. Annoying that it's messing up me watching the football game, but I'm glad we're getting the rain. Another very small storm, so it'll pour for only a few minutes again but it's very intense.
  3. Yeah a good amount of rain even though it was very brief. Came down in buckets. Looking at radar, we could see another downpour in a little while.
  4. Pouring here now and a decent amount of lightning. Glad we're getting something good afterall.
  5. Too bad the northern part of the batch weakened. Just some light to moderate rain for a little while here.
  6. Yeah that 2nd batch is what I've had my eye on. It looks good on radar right now and is on track to hit us. It's getting ready to move into western NJ, and hopefully it'll hold together.
  7. Some decent downpours in eastern PA right now. Hopefully we'll get enough to give things a decent watering.
  8. Beautiful now. Sunny and the temp popped up to 68.
  9. Ended up with 0.11 here. Temp is down to 63, but it'll probably pop back up to the upper 60s later this afternoon when the sun comes out.
  10. Had some moderate rain for a little while ... not even a tenth of an inch. Looks like a few more showers over the next few hours.
  11. It was because the models had been showing almost nothing. I was surprised when radar was looking that good. You're right, you have to adjust and increase the rain chance in the forecast when radar shows that the models were wrong. I had a pretty good downpour with some wind here too.
  12. 88 degrees here right now. Had a high temp of 85 yesterday.
  13. 75 degrees with a dewpoint of 43 here. Spectacular ... a top 5 day of the year.
  14. Yeah looks like no rain chances for a long time. At least our area finally cashed in the last couple weeks. As Allsnow said, about three and a half inches of rain for our area the last couple weeks. We finally had better luck and it has revived things outside.
  15. It's going to be quite a dewpoints swing, with 70s now dropping all the way to the low 40s thursday and friday. It's going to be spectacular bone dry weather late week before our big late season heat stretch sunday and next week.
  16. I'm actually gonna cut the lawn this week. The grass has finally been growing again. Very few lawn cuts this summer, but thankfully we've been getting more rain lately to revive the lawns. Hopefully it's not too late to help for the fall foliage this season too.
  17. Yeah Euro is early with the event, and clears it out by tuesday afternoon. A solid inch for a lot of the area. Obviously it'll be awhile before the details are worked out for this event.
  18. Euro now holds the rain off until wednesday next week.
  19. 0.97" here so far. Far from a drought buster, but can't complain about a nice 1 inch soaking. Especially considering some areas really got screwed. A shame that this didn't end up being the truly widespread heavy rain event that the area needed.
  20. RGEM backs a good amount of rain back in from the east tonight into tomorrow. Not sure how realistic that is .... we'll see.
  21. Yeah I just noticed that too. I'm skeptical but hopefully it's right. I've picked up 0.88" here so far. Good to have a nice steady rain for a change.
  22. Good to see that the RGEM that Rjay just posted is still showing a good soaking for everyone. Hopefully tonight's NAM will be wrong, but who knows.
  23. I picked up a little over a half inch with a heavy downpour earlier this evening. Got lucky since most areas didn't get much. It was a nice watering for the garden. Glad I got that early since there's no guarantee that monday night into tuesday will deliver. NAM just cut way back on the amounts as Stormlover74 just showed. It's just 1 model run and I'm not saying 0z NAM will be right about the event being disappointing, but it certainly wouldn't be shocking if that happens since almost every potential heavy rain event has fallen apart during this horrible drought.
  24. 12z Euro continue to be mostly dry for the day monday, and holds the rain off until monday night. It does give us a pretty good soaking monday night into tuesday morning though. A half inch to inch for most of the area.
