Itstrainingtime

What an incredibly beautiful weekend. #perfection

I respect that idea, I truly do. For me, it is therapeutic. I honestly feel better and truly love early darkness. It feels very homey and very sentimental. I associate those nights to the holidays and the onset of winter which are both hugely important to me.

Sweat through it indeed. I'm going to be sweating and thinking about how wonderful it will be when it's dark prior to 5pm. Magical time of the year. Just over 3 months away!

That might be a usable excuse except for the fact that my comment was made after walking around campus here at work where it did not rain yesterday. LOL

Maybe it's just me but after a very pleasant morning it feels decidedly more humid outside now. The change over the past several hours felt striking. Edit: Just reviewed the dewpoints over the past 24 hours and it's been between 62 and 64 the entire time. No uptick at all. So...it is just me.

Picked up a shocking .27" of rain yesterday. The tiniest cell popped directly over Maytown and dumped. There was zero rain in any direction outside of town...at least in our general area it literally rained only over about a 2 mile area in circumference.

I will be in Florida from August 17th to the 24th!

Just in - he's concerned about mixing issues southeast of interstate 81 that might hold down accumulations.

I'm surprised that you were able to sneak this post in before Climate Change. He loves to promote cold weather records.

It was 61 at midnight but I only managed to get down to 59.3 from there. Just a splendid weekend. As @Mount Joy Snowmanalluded to, a warmup ensues but nothing that we can't handle after what we've already been through this summer.

@MUweather Due primarily to oppressively warm nights and a slew of days with highs between 89-95F, #July2025 concluded as the 2nd-hottest on record @millersvilleu since 1914. It was also the 10th-wettest on record thanks to a seemingly endless onslaught of slow-moving, drenching T-storms.

I got down to 64 - and 64 never felt so good. 0.42" of rain for me.

0.22" of rain has fallen in Maytown. Looks like part of the Rt. 30 corridor is closer to 3-4" of rain so far.

Cell in Cumberland County is diving more SE and probably away from you. Meanwhile, after getting 0.02" the rain at home has stopped. LOL

Yep, wife just texted that it just arrived. It is a deluge down here at work now.

Nary a drop in Maytown...

No rain at home nor here at work, but the latter might be changing soon. Nothing imminent at home.

My in laws are getting crushed in Landisville.

Storms are already rapidly developing east of the river currently. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/?parms=CCX-N0B-1-24-100-usa-rad

Another note - a lot has been said about flooding/rainfall totals (rightly so) but Elliott is really hyping severe weather this afternoon. He said that CAPE is as high as it ever gets in these parts and he fears that storms will pack winds of 60-70 mph. That concerns me.

I'm at 89 currently.

Every single time I've been missed the past couple of weeks I immediately think of that post that you made.

Yep. I've had your yearly total of rain just since May 1st BTW. And I've gotten missed repeatedly over the past 10 days.

From CTP: Southern/Southeastern PA/Lower Susquehanna Valley Farther south, this area is more removed from the jet-streak dynamics to the north. However, this region is closer to the deepening surface low with strong surface-925mb southerly theta-e advection directed into the southeastward advancing surface front. A tropical air-mass (depicted by 2-2.25" PWATs and low-mid 70s dew points) will coincide within a warm sector that becomes increasingly unstable (MUCAPE between 1,000-2,000 J/kg). It is worth noting that SST anomalies along the Mid- Atlantic and Southeast coasts are well above normal too, acting as an abnormally rich moisture source for southerly low-level flow to draw from. By this afternoon, low-level WAA into the front will support storms enveloping the region with additional storms from the Laurel Highlands/south central Alleghenies tracking east. Modest vertical wind shear aloft will also support organized clusters of storms, some of which will have the potential to backbuild and train between the I-81 and I-95 corridors into tonight. Latest 12Z HREF guidance shows 24-hr probabilities for >3" of rainfall are high (>70%) across southeast PA. Just as concerning is this same region sports 30-60% chances for >5" of rainfall with 24hr PMM/LPMM values close to the ensemble maxima approaching 8 inches.

Good point. Thoughts last week of temps approaching the century mark down here have ended up in the 93-95 range in reality. It helped it feel so much more refreshing to be outside.
