I'm surprised the ssts are this warm off the coast this "early" in the season (image from yesterday before it started churning up this way)!
-
Now at 0.77" here...

The GFS seems to have the cyclone a bit further north and east versus the GFS-para...

I guess to line them up, you'd have this...

Radar has been lighting up to the south. Currently 75 and overcast here. Overnight/morning statements - For the coastal Jersey counties - For the area -
-
Mt. Holly office issued a statement for here in their CWA about 90 minutes ago - We usually get Hurricane and/or TS remnants most times - and that's usually in the early fall period.
-
I actually made it up to 91 today surprisingly because it didn't look like it was going to do it but it did - right after ~3:15 pm. Currently partly cloudy to the north but starting to cloud up to the south, and 87.
-
The coastal is Tropical Storm Fay now! Don't see one of these very often...
-
Flash Flood Watched issued pretty much everywhere in the CWA - Currently 89 and partly cloudy and humid although it could be worse (dews only in the 60s).
-
Actually made it up to 91 yesterday before it clouded over and stayed generally overcast much of the rest of the day. After I had gone to bed, it looked like we had some lightning around here in the 10:30 pm timeframe but apparently no measurable precip. Currently 73, mostly cloudy and steamy (yup, windows steamed up).
-
Mt. Holly tweeted an animation of that excitement from yesterday - Although it didn't get as hot here as yesterday (I just barely tapped 90 today), the dews were awful and it was pretty rough the brief times I was outside. Currently 80, mostly cloudy and soupy.. and I saw some pop-ups that formed in Montco and Bucks within the past couple hours moving SW --> NE into Jersey.
-
Ended up with another hundredth of an inch around 8 pm last night and final total was 3.13" for that wild event. Literally a month's worth of rain in a couple hours. Currently 66 at post time (and @ sunrise) and fair.
-
Looks like Mt. Holly picked up the Watch ball in the past hour now and does include the tristate area (ETA it looks like most of the convection has been backing to the west and south now) -
-
Wanted to add that Norman, OK had put in the Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 11 pm and the way these cells are building and back-building, that might verify!
-
Looking at my data, I had about 5 minutes worth (from 2:09 pm - 2:14 pm) of 4.82"/hr rates! You would think at this time of the evening, the convection would start dying out but it keeps coming. Still 70 and overcast here.
