  1. It's official. Chief meteorologist Cecily Tynan to retire after more than 30 years with Action News Her last broadcast will be on Monday, Aug. 31. https://6abc.com/post/cecily-tynan-retirement-announcement-6abc-action-news-wpvi/19562769/ Birds will be in mourning !
  2. EF0 confirmed at Cape May Point plus info on 3 other tornadoes that day - As an OBS, I bottomed out at 63 this morning and it's currently a sunny 75 with dp a refreshing 58.
  3. Well I finished up with a whopping 0.09" while watching the training sefere slobg the PA/ND/DE border. high was 86/low 71. KYW was talking about the waterspouts becoming landspouts down at Cape May Point. Area will be surveyed today. Currently overcast and 71 with dp 70.
  4. Tornado Watches up for the area (plus a TOR in north Jersey) -
  5. Amazingly, I dropped even lower for a low this morning after posting, that hit 59. That meant AC off and house aired out. Did get up to 85 for a high and it's currently 77 with dp 62 - more normal for summer.
  6. I was wondering what happened when my GR2Analyst stopped updating yesterday. I eventually switched to KDOX. I ended up at 87 for a high after a 69 low and only picked up 0.34" total from 2 rounds yesterday . Today was like day and night with the dp drop... actually tolerable. High was 82 after a 69 low and smoke mostly cleared out. Currently mostly sunny and 80 with dp 60.
  7. Similar here with temp 83 and dp 77. Lightening detector is picking up the stuff north of here.
  8. Fell short of any triple digits here in NW Philly yesterday but did make it up to 96 after a 73 low. it was still brutal with the humidity and dps into the upper 70s... until some convective outflow boundary from the upstate storms, washed down over the city and knocked the dps down almost 10 degrees. Currently hazy, smokey and 80 with dp 72,
  9. Plus he was the Superintendent of schools there. it was just over 4 years ago when you sent me down the rabbit hole, eventually finding the guy's house! As an OBS, got up to 86 yesterday after a low of 65. The dps have been in the low 60s making it tolerable but that's about to change. Currently 66 with dp 62.
  10. Ended up with 0.14" where the heaviest hit SW of me. I have 3.95" for the month so far, so it was not a desperate need for now. Currently overcast and 77 with dp 73. Heard someone on Accuwx earlier today mention triple digits again for later next week .
  11. Under a red blob but just getting tupjca thunderstorm rain. My sister whose flight to FL was already 90 minutes late (due to overbooking), finally got off the ground about 45 minutes ago as the storm cells were approaching. Currently have 0.06"with temp 75, dp 73.
  12. Finished up with 0.40" yesterday (the heaviest missed me mostly to the south). That brought my July total to 3.81" so far. Topped out at 80 after a 69 low yesterday. Currently 72 (my low so far) with dp 71. As a sidenote, I heard Ray on KYW this morning.
  13. Got up to 85 for a high after a 65 low. Started out nice but the dp has crept back into the 70s. Currently 79 with dp 70.
  14. Glad for the heat break today. Only made it to 75 for a high after a low of 65. Also managed to get 0.02" between 1am - 2 am (event total now 3.09"). Currently 73 with dp 68.
  15. Well ended up wit another 0.42" for today, raising the total to 1.43". 2-day Is 3.07". Got up to 79 for a high and am currently at my low of 68.
  16. Under a blob (with convection and some thunder) that gave me another 0.66" since my last tally, so have 1.01" for the day and 2.65" for 2 days. Temp, dp are 72/72.
  17. Ended up with another 0.77" before midnight and 0.33" after for a 2-day total of 1.97". Heard the EAS last night. As I was posting, got another couple hundredths for 1.99". Bottomed out at 71 and currently overcast and 73 with dp 72.
  18. So far with that spontaneous cell, I picked up 0.87". There is another blob out west although I don't know if it will hold together if it encounters more stable air. Currently 73 with dp 73.
  19. Have a cell spontaneously form over me. Getting over 2"/hr rates. have 0.42" in bucket. Temp 75, dp 73.
  20. TS watches up (and there is a TOR NW of Harrisburg) - I actually made it to 91 for a high and am currently at 85 with dp 75.
  21. PECO workers are striking. The criteria uses the heat index and duration of the heat event (and the dews have been horrible the past couple days, although at least not in the 80s yesterday or today like last week).
  22. Ended up with 0.32" of rain which I guess is better than nothing but am hoping for more the next couple of days to get all this heat-storing infrastructure cooled down. Looks like I bottomed out at 72 and it's currently overcast and 73 with dp 72.
  23. Finally getting some heavier rain. Have 0.15" in the bucket and temp is down to 73.
  24. Rocking and rolling here but no measurable rain yet. Gust front came through and knocked the temp down to 81, dp is 74.
