That was one of the more intense storms in some time. Winds were just your typical thunderstorm gusts but the rain rates were torrential, picked up a quick .50” in 20 minutes or so.
Also, that’s the first time I’ve seen hail here since 2009 or so. Finally, lost power for a few minutes.
60F/DP 58F
A thicker line fizzled as it started coming over me although I'm getting some light - moderate rain. Currently have 0.07" in the bucket.

Pea sized hail!!
Lots of convection in that bowed line. Have gotten splats as it has approached. Temp 69 and dp 60.

Whatever was left from that broken line gave me 0.01" sometime around 11pm on top of the 0.88" that I had earlier, for 0.89" total for the day. My high ended up being 77. This after an 89 high on Sunday (with low of 69).
Currently clearing with sun breaking through the clouds just after sunrise, and 66 with dp 64.

It's pretty cloudy here. I don't see a chance the sun makes an appearance. Gotta get lucky and hope a random popup blossoms right above my house...
71F/DP 69F
Sun just popped out here again. May end up being a self-destruct sunshine type of scenario. Don't know if those cells will ever consolidate on their way here but if the sun manages to stay out long enough before setting, a few more might fill in the gaps in the current line.

Sun briefly popped out completely here but not quite long enough to fire up the temps (it clouded up again), although it did go up a degree to 73. Dewpoint is still oppressive at 71.
The actual cold front is still back where that broken line is, but we only have a couple hours left before sunset.
ETA - looks like Delaware was added to the Watch with the MD counties -

Ended up maxing at 1.44"/hr rates and have 0.87" in the bucket total from that little round. The plants much appreciated it!

Had a quick-hitting shower early this morning for 0.05" but have been under heavier returns the past hour or so and currently ave moderate rain and 0.53" in the bucket. Temp 71 with dp 71. Low this morning was 68.

Have been trying to "make hay" out on the patio in between the rains, to prep my planters for some new plants I picked up.
It has definitely been "spring"/April-like weather so far this month with the ups and downs of the temps. Ended up with a high of 86 last Wed. (5/8) vs a high of only 52 this past Sunday (5/12) and got 0.87" of rain between 5/8 through to today (5/14) so far.
Didn't get to spot any aurora - the only "clear" period here was about 4 am Monday (where the low was 43), but then it quickly clouded over right before sunrise (probably with some stratus too) and then the sun of course blocked any other viewing later.
It's gotten humid as the morning has progressed and after a low of 51 this morning, I am currently at 68 with dp 61.
-
First "steamy windows" day of the season this morning. Thunderstorm rolling through with 0.40" per hr rates.
Ended up with a high of 74 Monday after a 56 low and a high of 81 yesterday after a 60 low. From Sat. - Mon., I picked up 0.74" of much needed rain.
Currently 66 with dp 66 and moderate rain from a thunder shower and 0.07" in the bucket.
-
To start off May, I made it up to 81 on Wednesday after a 57 low and 0.02" of a stray shower around midnight, and got to 87 yesterday after a 54 low. April rainfall IMBY ended up being 5.23", where there has been less than an inch the past almost 3 weeks, so things dried up.
My high for today might end up being the 69 at midnight if the backdoor is strong enough, and it's currently 57 with dp 50.
-
Had been waiting to see what my high would be today but I did finally tap 89 (88.7) at 3:23 pm and the temps have so far been hanging in the 87/88 range after that.
Currently mostly sunny and 87 with dp 62.

I don't think it's going to be that bad this week for the burbs (even the city.) Mid-upper 80s for Mon, low 80s or so Tues, 70s rest of the week and maybe 60s next weekend.
70F
I'm already at 88 with dp 64. It's not like a July sauna but there is a blast furnace feel even with the humidity at 45%, which is something for the end of April.
I ended up hitting 80 for a high yesterday and had a low of 61 this morning.

Looks like a "reverse Wiggum-Rule" in effect, going from frosts/freezes to almost heatwave for the following week.
My past week's lows since 4/21 were 39, 38, 37, 50, 43, 36, 40 for yesterday morning, with a high of 59 and a low of 49 this morning.
It took awhile for the warm front to push up this morning but once the sun came out, it was off to the races.
Picked up 0.18" of much-needed rain after midnight (it has been dry the past 7 days) and it's currently mostly sunny and 77, with dp way up there at 63.

Ended up hitting a high of 82 on Monday after a 59 low, and then had a step down to 72 for a high on Tuesday after a low of 48. Today ended up being an even cooler 67 for a high after a similar low of 48 this morning.
Round 1 of rain gave me 0.20" before exiting but I did get a few hours of sun and cirrus this morning before it clouded over and started to rain just before 1 pm today.
Currently have an overcast sky and a temp of 60 with dp 56.

Had jury duty today (got caught and am a juror) and when I went out the door to head on downtown, I saw RedSky...errr... a RED SKY. And I mean RED. I see there are storms galore to the south right now.
It made it up to 82 IMBY (much higher downtown - my car thermometer kept reading like 86 on my way home today).
Currently partly sunny and 79 with dp 55. Turned the ole house AC on for the first time this season. I know that Aprils sometimes have these hot spells around this time so not unexpected.

That line "looked good on radar" but seemed to have fizzled by the time it got here after 9 pm. Deposited 0.06" in the bucket and some kind of pop-up happened after midnight for an additional 0.05" (total 0.11" for the 2 days). It did drop the temp almost 10 degrees when it came through.
Had a low of 40 yesterday and made it up to 74 for a high. Looks like it'll get fairly warm today.
Currently 60 with dp 55.
-
Sun has mostly popped out and finished up this round at 0.62" in the bucket (0.68" 2-day total). Ended up bottoming out at 55 and it's currently 62 with dp 52.

Under one of those segments and getting a gully washer here with >1"/hr rates and some good wind gusts. Had on and off rain overnight and currently have 0.51" in the bucket (with 0.06" yesterday have a 2-day total of 0.57:).
High/low the past couple days were 74/53 & 74/52 and it's been humid those couple days.
Currently at my low for the day of 59 with heavy rain and dp 58.
-
After a 44 low, I actually made it up to 78 for a high!
Had been watching a sea breeze front move inland until it hit the Delaware River and dissipated. It did bring in some more clouds as it approached though.
Currently 69 with dp 49,

Looks like the cluster that formed earlier is fizzling as it approaches Philly. After a low of 69, I did get up to 86 for a high.
It's currently an overcast and muggy 82 with dp 73 and "Feels Like" of 88.
