  1. Gotcha. It looks like the storm was continually TOR warned since 9:04, but whether the polygons were inadequate is another issue.
  2. For everyone ragging on LCH, I noticed some problems with warnings not displaying in RadarScope this evening. For instance, the post above questions LCH's lack of warning around 9:25 or 9:30 PM, but there was a warning issued back at 9:04 PM. I thing something screwy was happening with the warning polygons (at least in RadarScope).
  3. This was a wind-based slight risk. Pretty strong gusts at some NJ sites, including 76 mph at Sea Girt, 66 mph Logan Twp., and 3 other 50+ mph gusts.
  4. It's below freezing up to around 850.
  5. Getting a few CoCoRaHS reports this AM. The 14.25" is as of 8:30 AM and apparently may be an underestimate as the gauge was totally full at measurement time. Not sure where this lies in relation to the USGS gauges, but at least makes their totals more plausible. https://www.cocorahs.org/Admin/DataEntry/ViewDailyPrecipReport.aspx?DailyPrecipReportID=0b230c32-4195-46d8-b55b-670698c50688
  6. Tipping bucket gauges tend to be biased low in heavy rain events. Is there some aspect of these gauges you're aware of that would cause this? Or wind-induced tips? Edit: Just saw the post above about the wind effects.
  7. New development to the southwest. Think we'll be rocking and rolling in the Piscataway area before long.
  8. Pretty prolific lightning, and assuming the strike locations are accurate, a number of strikes some distance away from the parent storm. Those are really dangerous.
