Hurricane Agnes

11 am advisory (as noted, now a hurricane) -

I lucked out at the time. Where I lived (apartment) I had strategically parked my car on the WSW side of the building and since (around here) it was a 23F snow during much of the duration, so that made it a powdery snow - with probably 15 - 20:1 ratios. Once the wrap-around winds came through, my car was almost completely clear of snow with just a little powdery stuff on the front bumper. However with the successive plowing during the storm, one of the side streets by my complex had 6 - 7ft mounds along the sidewalks and cars that got stuck earlier during the storm, were buried and trapped in the middle of the smaller streets all around the neighborhood.

Pablo continues to strengthen and is booking it past the Azores - MW still popping an eye here and there...

5 pm AST update (continues slow strengthening and and is moving to the NE) -

Kinda interesting - a "tiny" tropical storm in the middle of a big low -

11 am AST update (Pablo has strengthened a bit and has sped up - but expected to be post-tropical by Monday) -

This was Levi's tweet yesterday about what is now Pablo - Of course it looks to be jamming up against a trough and will probably sheer away. I circled where I believe it is -

But then if you look at the years that the climatology data covers (1981 - 2010), it's literally missing the last almost 10 years, where some significant temperature extremes have occurred - notably warm temps even in the last 5 years. I blame you for this but I generated some temp anomaly maps for data from 2010 - 2018 (the latest they have so far) - (top is "annual" and bottom is "cold season Nov - Apr")

As of 10 pm CDT last night, Olga went post-tropical -

5 am AST update (generally no change except slight slowing of forward speed and expected to be extra-tropical in a few days) -

Olga has been born -

Posted in the other thread - you can see the swirl in the SW quadrant of the blob.

TD-17 is born - You can see a bit of the naked swirl in the SW part of the blob of convection.

Latest (8 am) on this disturbance, and it is expected to get caught up in the front that will be moving across the central U.S. - With all that convection, it'll certainly be a wet system. The temps in the GOM are still pretty warm.

Was surprised that I picked up a higher amount of rain from the front yesterday (0.89" w/high of 63 & low of 56) than from the Nestor remnants on Sunday (0.59" w/high 55 & low of 46). Had some fog this morning interestingly enough and bottomed out at 52 earlier this morning. Currently 55 and mostly sunny.

I ended up with a low of 36 here early yesterday morning and had noticed the Frost Advisory had been expanded right to the city line some time later Friday night or early Saturday morning. It did rebound to a high of 61 though. This morning the low was a bit warmer at 46 and it's currently 53 and overcast with some sprinkles. The dews had been in the upper 30s and low 40s yesterday so it's slowly moistening up and moving to the mid-upper 40s.

Seeing all sorts of wind damage reports coming through in Berks, Chesco, Delco, and Montco. Temp is down to 53 here now with light rain and breezes (although the earlier winds, that were like a gust front, have lightened up a bit for the moment).

Now up to 1.69" of rain and the back edge with some gusty NNW winds, is starting to move through. Temp is down to 57.

Under a gully washer at the moment as a heavy band is coming through. Currently up to 1.61" and rising. Temp is 61.

Started getting the rain here just after noon today and the rates have steadily increased throughout the afternoon. Currently up to 0.90" at post time with varying rates from about 1/3rd to 3/4"/hr, but with the heaviest sustained rain occurring now. This is the highest rainfall total here (so far) since 8/14 believe it or not (when I had 1.03"). High today was 64 after a low of 49 and the current temp is 60 with heavy rain.

Bottomed out at 43 with dews in the lower 30s, which was the coldest low since May 15th here. Currently clear and 56.

After yesterday's midnight high of 75 (that did in fact end up being the day's high), the temp stayed pretty much @60 most of the day and slowly recovered overnight to 62. Ended up with 0.28" of rain through the day. Received 0.01" of additional rain early this morning with a low of 58. Current temp is 68 and partly cloudy.

Still seeing MW data for Lorenzo -

Ended up with a high of 91 yesterday and I expect the 75 I had at midnight may be my high for today. Light (measurable) rain started here around 4 am and have 0.09" so far at post time. Currently 59 with light rain.
