    In terms of max totals, if I could be anywhere for this storm, put me on top of Seven Mountains outside of State College.

    Low of 66 with .08" of rainfall. More importantly, all three American wrestlers who are competing in Paris today have advanced to the semifinals. Let's goooooo!!!

    Whoa whoa whoa Training, now you've gone too far. Let's reign it in a bit.

    They pissed me off when they stopped serving the UTZ medley chips with their sandwiches.

    At range, the HRRR and 3k NAM are both in the "keep the bulk of the precip west" camp.......

    I remember it well. I left work early that day and when I got off the train in Mount Joy I went to Isaac's for lunch. I recall watching the deluge hit as I finished up my "insert funny bird name" sandwich and thinking that I needed to get the heck out of dodge. I just made it home before things got crazy, with Main Street flooding and all the car rescues and whatnot. I got "only" 4.45" from that event, but that August is my wettest month on record, with a gaudy 17.79". I had three separate events where I got at least 4" during that month -- madness!

    I randomly checked a WU station near Willow Street and it just so happened to show exactly 5.91" for yesterday. I found you Superstorm! In any case, that station got an inch of rainfall in 10 minutes at one point -- extremely impressive. My heaviest period yesterday took 20 minutes to get an inch.

    Low of 68. Total 24-Hr rainfall at MJS headquarters: 2.27”

    The radar is insane right now. Just line after line. Going to be some big totals come morning.

    Getting throttled over here. Over an inch already. Gutters couldn’t do their job ha.
  11. Mount Joy Snowman
    Just under .2” here from this afternoon’s storms. Some real deal action on the way for tonight.

    Happy birthday Wind Sage!

    The only guarantee is that Amtrak will let you down. Book it.

    I'm starting to get mini-Lee vibes with this. Obviously not nearly as bad because, well, that was just such an anomalous event but also because it should be through here fairly quickly. But man, things could get interesting around here come Friday through Friday night, especially if some of those N-S bands end up orientated over the same locations. Time to make sure all those gutters are flowing smoothly boys! Also, and most importantly, national high of 123 at Death Valley and Tecopa, CA and low of 34 at Isabella, MN. Carry on.

    Low of 75. And so begins our wild week of weather. Happy tracking, all.

    I got 23" from that bad boy, and yet, much less than many others.

    Low of 69 with .01" from a tiny little storm that rolled through yesterday afternoon. I wasn't home but my wife said it dumped for about one minute and then abruptly ended. She would know about such things @canderson it appears Debby may throw a wrench into your hottest August of all-time plans. It actually had me checking the record books for lowest max temps later in the week. I believe Wed - Fri were all 68, probably a bridge too far. Things could go in all types of directions with this storm but it appears we should be in for some bountiful rains at some point. Hope the flooding isn't too bad down south. The dreaded pink dot has appeared on the WPC map that @Itstrainingtime posted. Busy week ahead.

    Low of 71 with .32” of rain.
  19. Mount Joy Snowman
    Yeah these storms look really impressive for this early and like you said aren’t budging. A flash flood warning for central Cumberland Co.
  20. Mount Joy Snowman
    A tiny unexpected little shower just rolled through here. Good omen for later ha.
  21. Mount Joy Snowman
    Low of 72 with .18” of rainfall. Today could potentially be the real deal for much of the forum. Could be.

    And yet the Mount Joy Snowman himself got a grand total of 0.0" yesterday and less than two tenths from today's line. To be fair, I don't live as close to The Joy as I used to and in fact now have a Lancaster address, but I'll be damned if I'm changing my screen name ha. Really, the entire reason for this post was just so I could refer to myself in third person haha. Carry on.

    Sure does. We always seem to have our worst flooding episodes when tropical remnants interact with stalled out frontal boundaries. Lee in 2011 really stands out.

    Welcome to my every-morning routine for the last 18 years. Well, since Covid we are only back in the office two days a week, so not quite every morning anymore. Side note, a 2" difference between MDT and CXY in rainfall yesterday. Sheesh.
  25. Mount Joy Snowman
    Ah my mistake. For some reason I thought you were going to OBX and were leaving earlier in the week. In that case, I think you'll be mostly fine.
