Big line of storms west of a Chambersbirg to Newport Line. Wonder if they can keep it together as they cross the mountains?

Wednesday might be interesting with severe wx.

Back to the weather - while it's about to pour rain again for a few hours here (nice 20 percent chance of rain we had this morning haha), this is INSANE: @NWSStateCollege We have now finalized the 5-day rainfall total for Dehart Dam. 16.75" fell between Saturday 7/21 and Thursday 7/26. That total includes a 1-day rainfall of 8.11" on Tuesday. Crazy amounts of rain! #PAwx

I believe so; I don't know her at all but have heard she quickly found a new job and bolted.

Combo of sexual harassment and gender bias. Hopefully Flora's lawsuit goes through and they all win and put them out of business.

It looks less and less serious.

Thankfully that was a massive nothingburger for the HBG region. No wind at all, light gray skies, light rain for 20 or so minutes. I got .15” at my house. Very glad we finally caught a break.

Is it me or does the system next week look like it's not going to end up being too much of an issue - just random passing showers for a day or two?

Oh cool another FFW. Flood Watch National Weather Service State College PA 936 AM EDT Fri Jul 27 2018 PAZ057>059-064>066-280300- /O.NEW.KCTP.FF.A.0012.180727T1700Z-180728T0300Z/ /00000.0.ER.000000T0000Z.000000T0000Z.000000T0000Z.OO/ Dauphin-Schuylkill-Lebanon-Adams-York-Lancaster- Including the cities of Harrisburg, Hershey, Pottsville, Lebanon, Gettysburg, York, and Lancaster 936 AM EDT Fri Jul 27 2018 ...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM EDT THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THIS EVENING... The National Weather Service in State College has issued a * Flash Flood Watch for a portion of central Pennsylvania, including the following areas, Adams, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Schuylkill, and York. * From 1 PM EDT this afternoon through this evening * Showers and thunderstorms will develop this afternoon and continue through late evening, with heavy rainfall rates likely. Given saturated soil from this week`s excessive rainfall, flash flooding may again result.

The Susquehanna at Harrisburg crested an hour or so ago at 17’ even and is now falling. The city itself got extremely lucky it was so low prior to Sunday.

I don’t like the wording CTP is using in the discussion. .LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... Med range guidance remains in fairly good agreement into next week, all of which track surface high pressure across the state this weekend. By next week, a deepening upper trough over the Miss Valley, combined with an anomalous upper ridge off the east coast, could potentially result in another atmospheric river setup along the east coast. A generally dry and seasonable weekend appears likely, as high pressure drifts across the state. However, can`t rule out a stray shower each day in association with the passage of a pair of shortwaves. Early next week is looking increasingly wet, as deep plume of tropical moisture overruns an approaching warm front. Med range models indicate warm front is likely to lift north of the state Tue/Wed. However, central Pa will remain within belt of anomalous pwats and susceptible to widespread, diurnally-driven convection into midweek. &&

I am putting down I ended with 10.75" rain from this event. It likely is off because my gauge was knocked over twice but looking around at totals I feel comfortable there. The river is quite angry this morning. I'll get some photos or videos after work if the light is OK. If not tomorrow morning I will.

I think it’s finaly over ...

It’s backbuilt in strength, which I didn’t expect.

I mentioned this the other day but I’d be very interested in a thermal dynamics study. The lower Susquehanna Valley for a decade or more has cashed in on all sorts of extreme setups - snow, rain, wind. The exact same spots.

That first cell skirted the city proper - it rained but we’ve had heavier - but it appears our luck(lol) runs out soon,

Flash flood warning fir Harrisburg until 9:30. At this point CTP should issue headlines if it won’t rain.

I guess this is the finishing punch.

Storms riding up 81 mean business, wow.

Oh hey it’s pouring again - it’s like a broken record.

Latest forecast has the Susquehanna at 19.1” in Harrisburg which is good news.

It's absolutely pouring rain downtown HBG again.

Interesting that Camp Hill/City Island have about 1.5" more - what weird totals. You have any issues with basement flooding or anything? If anyone around HBG needs help, just shoot me a PM and I'll do what I can to help you out. FWIW 322 is likely to close today going toward Hershey, and 422 as well.

My house is in no danger of flooding, it was a block and half away during Agnes in 1972 so if my house floods the capitol will be partially underwater. My business however ... not so lucky.

Two park rangers and a NWS truck were on Riverfront Park and Front and Calder in HBG this morning doing some river gauging I believe. That's maybe not a good sign.
