What started a few days ago as a 4-5 day 1.5"-2" soaker has already shrunk to a 3 day 0.75" event with as much soaking power as the Steelers. Soon I fear it will move to Bengal soaking levels.

This looks closer to 3" this week. 

Temp up to 87 at both home and at MU. Warmest day in some time. 

0.28" of rain fell here.

Low of 57 with a very solid .53” in the gauge. Could really hear it coming down through the night at times. 

You have been cleaning up on me over the past several events - .27" of rain fell at home. To your point about hearing it coming down, .2" of my total fell in 11 minutes from 1:35am through 1:46am. You must have gotten in on an additional band that missed me.

Will that slug of rain die before it reaches HBG? Or will it be pouring when I have to load the car to head to IAD, ha. 

Definitely looks like at least some of it will reach you in the next 30 minutes or so. We've already had 2 nice bouts of rain down here at work.

We were staying with some friends just outside of Bethany, so went to Bethany Beach one day and the Delaware Seashore State Park beach another day (the area just south of the Indian River Inlet with the Big Chill restaurant and bar area).

I know that area very well - my parents had a home in Bethany in a development directly across Coastal Highway on the inland side. I also have a lot of extended family that live in Lewes and Rehoboth. Pretty much my 2nd home growing up. I love the area between Dewey and Bethany in particular.

Low of 60. Back from the beach. Kids had an awesome time and the weather was perfect. No rain in the bucket here. 

Glad to hear it! Where did you go if I may ask?

I am REALLY excited for the 48-60 degree days I get to experience starting Tuesday for 10 weeks while you guys bake. My garden will die since it’s drier than ever before but whatever. 

You're going away for 10 weeks?

Sounds very intriguing.

A not so fall-like 65 this morning.

Thursday and Saturday rainfall totaled just .37" here. (.02" on Saturday)

46 in Maytown. Coolest morning of the season. 

MU talkin' drought today. Extended looking very dry.

Nothing matters but Oregon and ohio state as long as they win other games. What I mean I mean is they could win other games by 1 or 60 and it won't matter which as long as games are won because regular season will be judged on those two games alone

Absolutely; however, watching them struggle in games like today doesn't exactly instill a lot of confidence when we play those teams.

New season new underperforming PSU football. Sorry for the banter.

The entirety of next week looks nothing short of spectacular. After that, a bone extended to our warm weather lovers. 

Behind Saturday's cold front, winds will turn northwesterly and usher a much cooler, drier and less humid air mass into the mid-Atlantic States on Sunday. Skies should clear by the mid-to-late morning hours, and the rest of the day will turn out mostly sunny and pleasant with high temperatures in the mid 70s for most. A refreshing, 8-16 mph breeze out of Canada will cause dewpoints to tumble into the mid-to-upper 40s by late Sunday afternoon or evening, as well (see below). Needless to say, the weather during the second half of the weekend is shaping up to be absolutely spectacular and perfect for outdoor activities. Better yet, a sprawling high pressure system of Canadian origin will settle into the Commonwealth by Monday and then hold its ground across the Northeast and mid-Atlantic States through the rest of the week. That means Sunday's autumnal air mass will be sticking around from Monday-Friday and perhaps even through the following weekend.

The large-scale subsidence, or sinking motion, associated with the high pressure system will thwart both clouds and precipitation, so skies should be mainly clear during most if not all of next week. Humidity will also remain very low with dewpoints no higher than the low-to-mid 50s. The combination of light winds, dry air and clear skies will promote efficient, radiational cooling at night, so low temperatures should bottom out in the chilly mid-to-upper 40s on 4 consecutive mornings (Monday-Thursday). They may hold in the low 50s in downtown York, Lancaster and Harrisburg each night, but that will still be perfect for sleeping with the windows wide open and turning off the A.C. Afternoons will be pleasantly cool with highs in the low-to-mid 70s from Monday-Wednesday and upper 70s to low 80s on Thursday. A weak cold front may slide southward through the Commonwealth on Thursday night, but there won't be a drop of rain associated with it. Instead, the front will simply bring a reinforcing shot of cooler air into the region next weekend with highs on Saturday and Sunday similar or identical to Monday-Wednesday. Don't be fooled by the persistently cool weather, though! There are signs that a significant warmup could occur during the third week of September with perhaps one last run at a 90-degree day or two. One thing's for sure.. after tomorrow, I have no idea when measurable rain will fall again. Then again, that's not abnormal in the absence of tropical activity during the month of September. Lather on the sunscreen and "enjoy the calm!"

Glad you posted this, because 2 wrongs dont make a right. 

Dak absolutely played a part in this.  Carter has apologized to team, and I hope he learns from his stupid mistake.  Gut says Sirriani tore a piece outta his big butt after the game.  Hope so.  If the league really wants to clean up, then clean up in every corner and look into all of it.  Part of me says trash talk is part of the game.  Also vids out showing Dallas punchin our guy right in the helmet w/ no yellow parachute flyin.  We can go on and on and on about all of it, or just define whats acceptable and stay consistent.  The taunting call on our defense for flexin muscles...ridiculous.

Ugly W is still a W.

Happy weekend all.

Correct. My original post had emotion as I hate to see someone from a local team cross boundaries. There was a lot going on and my comment shouldn't have been so one-sided. 

There's been ongoing debate for years on the role that athletes play when it comes to visible behavior. Some don't like the idea of being a role model. Well, much like my 3 year old granddaughter watches and listens to every move and word that Pappy makes, athletes likewise are viewed under the same lens. Like it not, a whole lot of kids of all ages have Carter jerseys that they wear and behavior such as last night's tarnishes the image for many. 

Disgusting behavior tonight by Jalen Carter. And to cap it off he laughed at himself. Most people in most jobs get fired for that kind of stuff. I hope he gets suspended for a long time.

Man oh man, the lightning here was downright scary. House was nearly struck again on a few strikes. Looks like a little under three quarters of an inch out there. Good storms. 

You did much better than I did - .32" is my total. 

68 in Maytown with 0.23" of rain for the day.

Much, much worse storm down here at work. One of the best of the season. Near zero visibility along with very strong winds. 

79 and sunny at 11:15. Southerlies are pumping in more humid air now quickly.
