    I’ve never seen it be so soupy outside for so many days and yet get so little rain

    It's especially remarkable given the flooding that has occurred over the past week in Maryland, Virginia, and New Jersey.

    I watched entire storms get murdered by the mountains tonight, while I had a .1” of rain. I’m thinking anyone near and south of the turnpike gets almost nothing this weekend. 

    Looking at some of the information this morning, you might be right on with that...

    Is this forecast rain actually going to occur over the next two or so days, or will it be another large miss for us? 

    I think we're in line for a pretty good soaking between now and Sunday evening.

    What I want to know is this - how many sunny, refreshingly low humidity days have we had this spring?

    Northeast Cumberland County got smacked. My department handled over 30 incidents for service, which we received in about 10 minutes. I'm sure djr will report in ( not sure if he has power) his road had about 20 trees across it. My nephews house ( which I built and lived in for 10 years) had a tree go through his roof. Pretty crazy storm. 

    Wow...I'm so sorry to hear that. 

    We ended up with what really was a pretty pedestrian thundershower. After the initial gust front we had zero wind to speak of, no hail, and some decent rain. Sunday night's storm was far more impressive in my neighborhood.

    The outflow boundary blew him down to Lewisburg...lol

    Seriously though, that line is really moving. Thunderstorm warnings are hoisted as far east as Berwick already along  I-80, and tornado warnings from Muncy Valley to Dushore...

    Yes sir, and the southern flank is moving much slower. Us down here near the M/D border are going to get drenched tonight...

    Be it winter or summer, the Mason-Dixon line seems to be the place to be. It sure looks like we'll be in the cold rain portion of the storm, while south of the Turnpike sees the best storms later today...

    I typed that yesterday, but didn't post it, but it looks to be true. We've been cloudy, cool (61f), and dreary all day since this mornings rain. The band from the north is slowly pushing down, but the good stuff does indeed appear to be popping in the warm sector in south central and south west PA. The temp map on my phone app clearly shows the cool wedge of air over east central and northeast PA this afternoon, limiting us to not much more than a cool, synoptic rain event...

    You can have all of my severe weather any day, all day. I want no part of it. I so wish we could trade locations today.

    Yea that was lame. Mod rain at best, no thunder, a little gusty for a few minutes. 

    We actually had several decent flashes and rumbles. This was one of the few times reality seemed to exceed the radar depiction here.

    I'm in Tulsa OK right now heading back east from California. You all better finish up that cold and snowy pattern and give me some spring weather...lol

    Nice weather pattern developing that should make most happy. Sunny, milder days (though still below normal) and clear, chilly nights look to be in store into the middle of next week.

    Can't believe it...but its actually snowing steady here in elevation outside of Hazleton...thought this was going to finally just be a rain event for us.  Looks amazing. 

     

    Any accumulations? i was looking at cams from the Laurels this morning and it looked like a couple of inches had fallen there. Regardless...enjoy!

    Back at 6:10 snow squall #2 moved in and through the area.  Heavy snow with huge flakes for about five minutes.  With the wind and temp around 37 degrees it really did feel like mid-winter.  I wonder if we're on pace to set a record for the most number of days in the month (April) where a trace or more of snow was observed?  I've lost count, but certainly it's been at least six different times / days when snow was seen flying through the air. 

    Did you guys know that Minneapolis and surrounding areas recorded between 12 and 24" of snow over the weekend?  Blizzard warnings were issued as winds howled sustained at 25 gusting to 40mph with near zero visibility.  My son was on a layover there the night before, and they got as far as the plane being de-iced before the snow got too heavy and visibilities dropped to below 0.125 miles...which in turn shut down the airport.  He said even the city itself seemed caught off-guard by the magnitude of the snow.  That upper air energy and pocket of arctic air is I think what ended up triggering our squalls today.

    Some areas in Wisconsin had north of 30" over the weekend. In mid-April. It's been that kind of year.
