    Yesterday was as nice a day as you could ask for in July, high was 80F and dew points stayed in the 50s. Feels a little warmer/stickier today but still nice. Low 60s in the mornings have been awesome

    Happy to miss the severe so far, any risk of the smoke sticking around if the rain busts though?

    AQI is much lower than 2023 but the news said this was the first code purple since 2008, confusing. Even still, AQI of 265 imby is grounds for staying inside all day

    Quite a storm in Philly today. Saw some reports of a possible tornado in West Philly and wouldn't be shocked based on the damage I saw driving through West Fairmount Park. Severe tree damage, power was out and several spots were under a foot of water

    Reverse jinx worked, been under a training storm for the last 40 minutes that wasn't even on the radar when I posted an hour ago. Pushing 2" total now

    Only about 0.95” here last night, missed the first storm and the second never really got especially heavy. still early but I’m having a little trouble seeing how the 3-4” forecasts would verify

    No rain here but the front cooled us off a bit. Much better out this morning than last, got down to 76 and now I’m at 80 with dew point 70. Yesterday at this time it was already 87

    Sorry the Lehigh Valley missed out but that was a hell of a storm in NW Philly. 1.9” and 2 full hours of lightning. And now it’s a refreshing 68, dew point down to 52

    well we actually got a passing shower in NW Philly (and a few serious wind gusts), which I believe technically brings us to 9 consecutive days with rain, although today's was not measurable
  10. Chadzachadam
    2.6” since Wednesday. Maybe another quarter inch tomorrow. Looks lush out there
  11. Chadzachadam
    4 day total 1.5” so far

    got about 0.40" here yesterday, the sky never really opened up like it threatened to... until today, as we have had a couple legitimate downpours in the last hour or two. steady rain now, approaching 1.00" over the last 24 hours

    I'm not saying that it accumulated but we were under a squall that was frozen precip, bouncing off the cars, much too small/atmospherically stable for hail. so yes, it was sleeting heavily and I don't think that's all that historic
  14. Chadzachadam
    heavy sleet in NW Philly (:

    Rain has arrived well ahead of schedule in Philly, which might diminish the severe threat since I don't expect to see much more sun or make a run at 80 given the radar

    Winter holding on for dear life. Still haven’t made it out of the 40s this week…maybe this evening

    Dec 14: 6" Dec 23: 0.3" Dec 26: 0.5" Jan 1: 0.5" Jan 17: 0.8" Jan 18: 3.5" Jan 25: 10" Feb 15: 0.1" Feb 22-23: 17" Total 38.7" for the season, by far the most I've recorded in my current spot but got ~4 ft in Conshy in 2020-21

    I actually think 20" in Philly will be about right, at least if measured properly (clearing snow board every couple hours). but on the ground total will probably be more like 14 or 15"
  19. Chadzachadam
    Basically a perfect storm here: 1) started as rain to wash away any annoying salt 2) wet snow stuck on all the trees 3) winds were light so not many trees/branches down 4) roads are already rapidly improving, 32F with sun peeking through still light snow here, final total will probably be around 18" but hard to be totally certain because there was lots of compaction
  20. Chadzachadam
    NW Philly 12.5" but the places where I cleared 6-7 inches last night have over 10 so technically more like 17" without compaction. I imagine Center City got more based on radar
  21. Chadzachadam
    6.5” in NW Philly. Pretty peaceful out, no blizzard here yet and temps must still be pretty marginal because there’s only 2.5” on the untreated road. Easy shoveling too, nice and fluffy and comes up in big clumps
  22. Chadzachadam
    Yea it’s ripping now. Heavy snow and 31F, looks windy out. Right around an inch
  23. Chadzachadam
    In an area of lighter returns right now in NW Philly. Road is just wet but everything else is covered, not quite off to the races just yet. side note I think models being a little unreliable is part of the fun of all of this. second side note, why do we get 1”/hour rates of rain fairly regularly in a thunderstorm but never 10”/hour snowfall? I’m sticking with yesterday morning’s guess here, 14-18” but I do think I’m more likely to be too high than too low at this point
  24. Chadzachadam
    LV may get fringed but philly area still in a great spot imo. This happened last storm too where day of everyone on here suddenly got super pessimistic. Trust the experts, could be a top 10 storm in Philly

    was curious about it being called a Miller B. doesn't really look like a B to my eye, seems like the southern wave digs down into NC whereas B would mean it originates in the Ohio Valley right?
