Angel?

Holy moly, a tropical-like deluge started here out of nowhere. Radar suggests some big totals incoming - I'm already at 1.31" for the day.

How much more rain will we receive the rest of the day?

Maybe 1 to 2"?

And it is pouring...

Below normal? I wish. Not so here.

It is in almost the entirety of the thread that you posted in, but you knew that.

As we round out the first quarter of 2024, I thought it might be a good time for a review of temperatures. Through the first quarter of 2024, it's been quite toasty in central Pennsylvania.

Williamsport: Third warmest start to the year [of 130 years], behind 2012 & 2023.

Harrisburg / Middletown: Sixth warmest start to the year [of 136 years], behind 2020, 2023, 1998, 2012 & 1990.

 

You probably shouldn't think so much. Just enjoy the BN temps today.

Some people may get more precip Thursday than they do today.   Those pop up showers mean business and could drop 1/2 to 1" if you catch several. 

Thursday is definitely a wild card - CTP says less than a tenth of an inch. I tend to agree with your assessment.

MU still hyping snow and graupel on Thursday - "funny things happen under upper level lows..."

You are going to pass my since Saturday total which is still at 2" after just drizzle for the past 5 hours, 

At this moment I'm at 1.36" for the day, 2.39" since yesterday and 2.61" including Saturday.

.30" in the past 15 minutes.

Thunder and heavy rain.

 Could be some minor flooding later in the week on the main stem Susquehanna- flood stage at Marietta is 49'. By late Thursday the river is expected to reach 48.8" and it's still rising.

So far today, .89" of rain has fallen. 2 day total is 1.92".

That's a bit concerning.

I know people in here are focusing on one last potential wintry threat, I certainly respect and understand that. But the bigger story to me in the next 48 hours is the severe threat that's unfolding not too far away from us. I feel that the pretty colors aren't finished moving towards us, too.

Nooners...back to Mostly Cloudy and 50 degrees. 

Mostly cloudy for sure here- but an impressive amount of blue skies overhead. Sun has been out in pretty much full force for nearly 30 minutes so far.

I see NWS forecast mentions thunderstorms in my forecast tomorrow. 

Thanks for mentioning this - with the storm track a bit farther north, the chance of storms here increases accordingly. Would not be shocked if we get a low key severe threat in the southern tier tomorrow night.

It became partly to mostly sunny here not long after I posted that.

Yeah looks like I'm approaching 3/4" now.  I ended March with 4.65". 

I'm at .94" today to be precise. Great start to our rain totals.

I was hoping for sun today.  It is low 50's.  I did not need the fireplace but parents wanted it.  

My family and extended family didn't want the AC on...

They lost.

It is quite overcast here as well.

Fireplace is on for Easter.  

It got too warm inside for me this morning - AC is running.

SPC has R-Ville under a SLGT for severe weather on Tuesday.

Mostly cloudy and 55. Sun was out earlier but is taking a break now. Needs to rest up for all of the sun coming this week.
