Hurricane Agnes

Ended up with another little cell that pushed up from the SE to give me an additional 0.18" for a total of 0.48" for today and a 3-day total of 2.70". My low was 61 earlier this morning and it's currently overcast and 65 with dp 65.

And my lightening detector picked up a strike right after posting and about 5 minutes later, I just heard a thunder (and just heard another with a lightning. The cell was moving up from the SE and is recurving around towards the east. Currently have 0.30" in the bucket.

Got one more light passing shower yesterday to finish up with 1.65" for the day and 2.22" for the 2 days. Am currently under a rogue cell that is producing over 1"/hr and have 0.28" in the bucket at post time (2.50" for 3 days). Currently 62 with dp 61, with a heavy shower and fog.

So far with today's round, I ended up with 1.64" at post time for a 2-day event total of 2.21" of much needed rain! It's currently overcast and misty and am at my high for today of 64, after a low of 58, and with dp 64.

After some light returns much of yesterday, I did finish up with 0.57". The significant rain has happened overnight and this morning where I am sitting on an additional 1.10" at post time, with a 2-day event total of 1.67". Got up to 68 for a high yesterday after a 60 low and currently have moderate rain (~1/3" - 1/2" per hr) and 58, with dp 58.

Watches are up. Have been getting on and off popcorn type little cells and streamers this morning and have 0.03" in the bucket from a couple. The sun did come out a couple hours ago so things are destabilizing. There has been a series of bands basically training, N->S, over portions of Lancaster and York Counties for hours. I know it has to be flooding there. I bottomed out at 60 this morning and have been bopping around 75/76 as a high so far. Currently 76 and partly sunny (but with some serious-looking angry cumulostratus off to the east) and a dp of 67.

Well another little scattered shower earlier this afternoon added 0.11" to the bucket for a total of 0.22" for the day so far and a 2-day event total of 0.89". The high so far today was 71 just before 11 am but that has dropped down since. It's currently overcast and muggy with temp 67 and dp 65.

And unexpectedly, the sun has popped out. Ended up with 0.11" from that isolated shower. Will have to see if it becomes "self-destruct" and the sky clouds up again. Currently partly sunny with the temp quickly rising and at 68, with dp 67.

I am surprised I didn't get any more overnight so did finish up with 0.67" from that round. It has started raining here again as another round comes in. Bottomed out at 63 just after midnight and it's currently raining (0.06" in the bucket at post time) and 67, with dp 65.

Down to light rain after that round. Have 0.67" in the bucket and temp down to 62 with dp 62.

Gully washer. Getting almost 1.75"/hr rates. Have 0.30" in the bucket at post time. Temp down to 69 with dp 68.

My sis just texted again to say she is getting hail. I am getting a light show with rain (nothing measurable yet) but no thunder.

Under a Warning right now. My Delco sis just texted about it where she is in Upper Darby! Currently 77 with dp 64 .

And here we go! It's been pretty sticky since last night and after a low of 64, I made it up to 82, but with dews in the 60s. Currently have big puffy cumulus as the sky begins to cloud up, and temp of 80 with dp 64.

Didn't actually *see* any frozen falling during the weekend event but I did register 0.88" of rain Friday night and 0.50" on Saturday, for a 1.38" total for the 2-days. Saturday's high of 43 was definitely toppled by yesterday's 60, where a non-diurnal warming had commenced after midnight yesterday with my low of 40 at midnight. Whatever has been attempting to cross the area this morning has mainly been virga IMBY so far and after a low of 39 earlier this morning, It's currently overcast and 49, with dp 40.

Before round 2 comes through, I did pick up 0.41" from the thunder-boomers this morning. Had a low of 61 so far this evening and made it up to 71 for a non-diurnal high just after midnight. Currently 62 with dp 41.

And another sound and light show incoming - this time early morning. STS up for south of me - Currently getting rain (0.07" in bucket at post time) and 67 with juicy dp of 66.

Finished up with 1.50" before midnight and another 0.37" after, ending about an hour or so ago, for a 1.87" 2-day total. Cold front passage(s) were obvious on the weather station! Currently a misty 47 with dp 42.

Nice sound and light show here. Getting about 1/2"/hr rates and now have 1.01" in the bucket at post time. Temp is down to 61 with dp 60. Made it up to 79 as a high just after 5 pm.

Gully washer here. Just got a STS lofted. Had up to 3"/hr rates about 5 minutes ago. Lots of convection and some loud claps. Already have 0.61" in the bucket. Currently >1"/hr rain and 61 with dp 60. Got some bowing going on with a segment over the city.

Bottomed out at 50 before 2 am here and it just hit 77 as I was posting. Dewpoint is a bit juicy at 63. I know folks are hoping to get the home opener in before the alternate fireworks begin, so any pre-frontal might affect the game, which has a 3:05 pm start.

Bottomed out at 43 earlier this morning and apparently the warm front has been hovering overhead much of the morning. The sun started popping out at about 11:30 am but the temp hasn't gone up too much yet. It's 70ish in Dover & near or at 80 in D.C. but in the 40s north of Philly. Currently partly sunny and 55 with dp 49.

Am actually sitting at 82 at post time. Last time I had this temp was back on Oct. 22, 2024. Will have to see if it keeps going up. I was surprised at how fast it shot up this morning (low was 53). Didn't expect the rise to happen until later. Current dewpoint is 55 and it is breezy. I had light rain on and off yesterday afternoon but not enough to tip the bucket until sometime before midnight, with 0.01". My east-viewing is blocked by trees and houses so even though I tried, I couldn't see what would have been just a few minute 11% - 12% sun chomp. I was actually surprised that the sky wasn't completely overcast as it usually is during celestial events. There was just some cirrus here this morning so the viewing would have been okay I think.

Finished up with 0.68" of much-needed rain. Currently breezy and 43 with dp 34.

I did get my first lightning strike of the spring, just after 8 pm. I think when the front goes through, you might get some flying calves (further north may have the full sized beef guys). Getting some moderate rain, just under 1/2" per hour and have 0.15" in the bucket. Made it up to 69 for a high after a 44 low and it's currently 56 with dp 53. Was glad I put some fertilizer out for the plants to get rained in!
