  1. So far I have 3.09" of rain since ~1:00 pm (max rain rate hit 3.19"/hr so far). Temp is sitting at 69 now but I see the new batch coming this way. The cells are slow-moving and dumping like crazy apparently. Heard Hurricane Schwartz on and off on KYW the past hour and he was talking about all the back-building of the thunderstorms. The latest cluster might sideswipe me to the south if it continues the current storm motion.
  2. This thing looks like a MCS developed right over the area! Now up to 3.04" of rain at post time. Temp is still 68.
  3. EAS and all hell breaking loose on phones and whatnot again. Temp down to 68. Rain is up to 2.87" after having let up some.
  4. Have already surpassed the entire amount of rain that I got in June in just an hour! Now up to 2.24".
  5. Now getting some winds... it has been mostly a lot of rain, thunder and lightning with just moderate wind. Temp is holding at 69. Now up to 2.02" of rain from this event so far. Rain rate is averaging around 4.5"/hr. Huzzah!
  6. Temp down to 69, 25 degrees less than 2 hours ago. Rain rates runing over 4"/ hr and am now up to 1.75" at post time and moving up fast! " ETA OMFG now at 4.75"/hr.
  7. Temp is now down to 72, 22 degrees less than at noon. Currently up to 0.77" of rain (over 3"/hr rate) so far at post time.
  8. OMG HAIL. I have not seen hail around here in at least 20 years. It always melted before it reached the ground. Getting pea-size hail.
  9. Like a full frontal assault on the city. Getting heavy rain here now (of course after I watered this morning) and temp is down to 78 - literally 16 degrees lower than 90 minutes ago!
  10. All hell just broke loose on my phones and weather radio! Good afternoon Mt. Holly. Finally got enough rain to tip the bucket (0.02" so far).
  11. Flood advisory now issued too. Am geting some big droplets but not any of the "rain". The temp was knocked back almost 10 degrees here now (down to 85).
  12. Hearing thunder and temp now down to 87 but that big blob is missing me to the south and east. They are also issuing a Flash Flood watch now -
  13. Yes literally within about 15 minutes. It just blew up out of nowhere.
  14. This is literally missing me to the south and east (DIX and DOX views since DIX was out for about 20 minutes and I think a SPS was just issued for it, and the sky is dark here dropping the temp a high so far of 94 back down to 88 + hearing thunder)
  15. I actually heard my first cicada at my sister's house in Upper Darby on Saturday. Just came in from watering about 30 minutes ago. Currently mostly sunny and 91 here with a dp of 71.
  16. I think you had some rain from a few pop-ups where you are. All the pop-ups either missed me completely or fizzled by the time they got here. The last I had any was barely enough to wet the walk and street one early morning last week, but that was basically a trace and didn't tip the bucket. Last measurable here was 6/27 and that was only 0.04". Maybe the possible coastal next week will throw something up here.
  17. Ended up hitting a high of 89 yesterday and 95 today (so far). More and more grass around the area is turning brown. Currently 94 and partly cloudy.
  18. It briefly tapped 95 here around 1:15 pm before the sky hazed over and threw some sort of high cloud deck overhead. Currently "down to" 93 with dews in the mid-60s. Haven't stepped out since earlier this morning but I know it's awful. Grass around the area is starting to turn brown too.
  19. Made it up to 92 here just after 4pm. Currently 91 under a hazy sky and looks like we will be jumping from the frying pan into the fire tomorrow.
  20. Got shafted again. I only got 2.01" of rain for the entire month of June, (in contrast to last year's 4.57"), so am already starting July with a deficit. I figured the only way we would have the progged above normal temps this summer was that the faucet had to turn off after a year of above normal precip, and apparently it did. Had to pull the hose out this morning. Currently at 86 and partly cloudy so far today, with a tiny bit lower humidity than yesterday.
  21. 79 here after making it up to 86. It felt a bit sticky today with hazy skies and lots of cumulus.
