Itstrainingtime

"She" says she hasn't used that word since her college days. I told her that I wasn't aware that she was such a weather nerd back then. Environment seems ripe for things to blossom soon enough.

Hopefully, there is an increase soon...or it might not be so...copious. LOL

Yep, my split is 80/73 right now. That's gross.

Clouds and rain have given way to full sunshine now. The match has been struck...

72 here now. .31" of rain is today's total.

I just have to say that this is by far the most active our thread has been during any summer that I can recall going back to Eastern and I'm enjoying every bit of it. Somehow, it's helping move summer along faster. Before you know it, we'll be talking about partly cloudy and 52 in January.

I might have had a wind gust to 5 mph...maybe. Only about .2" of rain as it lightens up. Storm really faded as it reached the Susquehanna.

Stunning shelf cloud getting ready to move in over me. This has the classic feel of a big daddy boomer.

It is menacingly dark here. Judging by the looks of the radar, Maytown might be even more historic soon

At this rate you'll finish the month near 6".

Temp has spiked to 92.4 here. Sun is out, awaiting to see what happens in a bit.

Hopefully the next run brings the goods in a big way. I've had distant thunder for nearly an hour now and yet the sky looks almost exactly like it did an hour ago. Guessing flood advisories for you soon.

Indeed. Everyone here except for Bubbler looks to "Cash" in today.

Looks like it's going to slide JUST south of me. I might have to wait for the line following it.

Finally hit 90. Doubt I'll get much higher...I can already hear thunder from the warned storm in York county.

Think of the money you're saving on gassing up the John Deere! Hopefully you and Cashtown get a good soaking.

Well, we got a nice line forming to our west and a big 'ole cell just popped over Adams...let's see what the next several hours brings.

I have a high dew (71) but a lower temp (85) which gives me a HI of 90. We have some work to do to reach advisory criteria. In other news - I was reading some comments in LNP this morning from a met at CTP. He mentioned that temps have been running 5-10 degrees above normal, but that the heat isn't abnormal. If the temps are running well above normal...wouldn't that be abnormal?

Very bad. Well, welcome back to the soup kitchen. My dews are back up into the 70s. Feels oppressive here.

How much (little?) did you get yesterday?

What becomes of the line currently moving into the central mountains?

True that! We got the goods several minutes ago. Nice quick .28" in the bucket.

Nice little cell just popped to your east to add insult to injury.
