  1. Worcester, PA.  Rain was .23" with the line going through. Really came down for about  5 minutes - maybe less.  Then a light rain for about 20 more minutes. Looking around it appears my general area was .2" to a higher amount over towards parts of Towamencin Twp. Closer to .45" at a site over that way.      1.89" for the month here in Worcester.

  2. Worcester, PA.  For the month so far 8/1 to 8/16      1.04" of rain and most of that was in the first few days.  Interesting,  but not surprising how some locations not far away are well above that. Local showers and storms have consistently missed us or dissipated before getting here.

    I'd like to see a close-up map for central Montco. I'm not sure which side of the line I'm on. I know a few miles either ways doesn't make a difference, just curious where my neighborhood is in relation. Lansdale itself is in the WAA, but I'm west of the borough over by NP High.

    In Worcester it is Grange Ave.  Worcester is eastern Montco. Skippack is western Montco. Not sure what line it follows in Towamencin etc.

  4. In no way am I saying the accumulated ice map as shown a few posts above will verify (or even close to it), but i feel there is way too little pubic awareness of what COULD be in store. If we get above .10 of ice then there could be a few power issues. Above .25 and some significant issues.  Above .50 then ????????. I know the media is cautions to say much until it becomes "likely", and there is the issue of a huge range of difference between south Jersey and say Berks County - all in the same Philadelphia  viewer coverage area, but if someone is caught off guard and they are 24 to 36 hours without power I think there will be a lot of "I wish I had known.

  5. Eastern and Western Montco are the two NWS zones for Montgomery county.   Happens to go along Grange Ave. They always split the forecast there.  I happen to live on the edge. My home is in eastern and looking out the window I see western.  Sometimes the forecast is the same,  but not at all unusual for watches and warnings to be issued with one of the zones and not the other.   Not sure that explains the earlier question, but that is how it works. I expect they are busy and grouped the two zones into one "warning" to cover both.
