Hurricane Agnes

Have had on and off very light rain since ~6:30 this morning. Got 0.05" so far from it and it looks like it will be moving out soon. Temp has dropped down to 71 after the rain.

Just tapped 90 yesterday and currently getting some sprinkles this morning (surrounded by all sorts of pop ups). Temp is 76, much warmer than yesterday at this time.

Ended up hitting 87 as a high yesterday after an earlier 0.06" rain with fropa. Humidity finally came down and there was actually a bit of a breeze too. Currently 70 & clear with winds calm, so getting good radiational cooling. You can really tell the days are getting shorter now.

Looks like I maxed out at 92 today, so 4th 90+ degree day in a row here. With the buildup of heat by buildings and on the streets, it was pretty oppressive out. Currently 87 and mostly cloudy with quite a bit of cirrus. Am a bit surprised (or maybe not due to the sluggish front which is sitting way back west over Indiana), that the near-categorical rain forecasts from earlier in the week for tonight, have all but evaporated and we're now essentially down to scattered pop-ups. In other news, the cicadas were going full bore earlier this morning and then I think they wore themselves out. lol

Ended up getting a surprise 0.07" of rain yesterday evening. Currently a steamy 72 and mostly sunny.

Heard a couple pretty loud thunders with multiple lightning strikes. Looks like NE Philly has something going (which is where I'm seeing the lightning). Current temp is 78.

Topped out at 93 today (same as yesterday), so day 3 and an official heatwave here IMBY. Currently 89 & partly sunny.

Made it to 93 yesterday although there were multiple periods during the day where clouds (although never complete overcast) blocked the sun and dropped temps. Currently 74 and steamy.

Have hit 90 here just after 11:30 for the first time since July 17th. Will see if a "heatwave" pans out here the next couple days.

Sun is starting to pop out and skies are slowly clearing. Just some clutter left on the radar. Ended up with 0.15" for the day, 0.86" over the past 2 days, and a grand total of 1.31" since August 1st. Current temp is 73.

Have been getting what may be the last round for today, over the past 30 minutes or so. Have added 0.1" since earlier this morning for a total of 0.14" (2-day total of 0.85"). Currently light to moderate rain and temp is 72.

Ended up with 0.71" yesterday and an additional 0.04" early this morning for 0.75" over 2-days so far. High was 86 yesterday and currently overcast and 74. May only get fringed with the trough moving through as it looks to be breaking up on its southern flank as it moves NE, so not sure how much measurable will make it to the ground here.

Round 2 gave me almost 1/2" (0.48") so am up to 0.69" so far for the day. Temp is 74 and an absolute steam bath.

Another round of showers coming through to add to my daily total. Getting a gully washer at the moment. Temp is 78. When I was coming back from a store yesterday, I saw someone's front yard covered with large mushrooms. ETA getting >2"/hr rates. Up to 0.64" as of edit time.

Down to very light stratiform rain with some brightening off to the west. Picked up 0.21" so far at post time (below what I got yesterday). Hearing a few lazy claps of thunder here and there. Temp down to 74 and not as steamy out.

Under heavier stuff now. Not getting the wind or thunder (had heard thunder earlier). Temp is down to 80 and precip up to 0.15".

Wow. Got a teaser 0.01" earlier but the heaviest is still to the SW of me. It just started with some more serious ready..set...go stuff now. Huge drops.

Mt. Holly has an SPS up for the line. I just put my umbrella down on the patio. Looks like it may be a fast mover though.

I think this is incoming here soon. Sortof blew up out of nowhere! Temp up to 85 here now.

Ended up with 0.27" of rain yesterday from the scattered showers, not long after I had already pulled out the hose and watered earlier. Was trying to help everything get through the weekend and early next week prog of 90s. High ended up being 89 yesterday and currently 79, mostly cloudy, and steamy.

Your wall 'o rain became a sprinkle here although it looks like some more may be incoming. I really need to pull out the hose though. It got up to 88 before the pop-up sprinkle and is currently 85 and mostly cloudy, with peaks of sun and big fluffy cumulus and cumulo-stratus clouds.

I had an isolated quick hitter with huge rain drops come through but it was not enough to even merit the term "shower". Sun is back out. Florida has arrived in Philly!

Got the rain going right now (since about 4 am). A blob of it moving in from the SW. So far dropped 0.14" here. Had very isolated sprinkles yesterday afternoon enough to wet the sidewalk but not tip the bucket. High yesterday was 80 and currently 74 and steamy here with light rain. ETA - looks like the the rain has cleared my area for now and ended up with 0.15".

High today was 78 and it was overcast most of the day, with just a few peeps of sun. Currently 73 and not too bad out.

Got 0.09" out of that and may not get much if anything more since there are a few holes in the precip on radar. Temp is 71 and the katydids are out and loud (at least a couple of them)! Had no rain yesterday but I guess I could tack this on to the 2.88" previously, to get 2.97" for the week.
