  1. Temp soared to 74 today with an active breeze after a low of 43 and it will only get warmer each day for the remainder of the work week. It did briefly cloudy up during the mid-afternoon but that cleared out for a mostly sunny finish through to sunset. Am currently at 65 with dp 38.
  2. Really nice day yesterday and I made it up to 58 for a high. This morning was actually a degree "warmer" for the low of 34 compared to yesterday morning's 33, even with calm conditions maintained through the night and early morning. Temps have recovered however and am now up to 44 with dp 37.
  3. Bottomed out at 33 this morning. Interestingly enough, there were some puffs of breeze between 4 am - 6 am that probably disrupted the full radiational cooling before it went calm before 6 am. In any case, the temps recovered quickly and it's currently 53 and sunny with dp 32.
  4. Some areas west are dry but not our area - Ended up hitting 59 as a high yesterday and watched the dp slowly drop into the low 20s. It's currently 39 with dp 22.
  5. Got up to 82 for a high and only have a measly drought-inducing 0.10" of rain in the bucket so far. Currently 62 with dp 56.
  6. You're under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch down there - Eyes on the skies!
  7. Well in the meantime it's 81 IMBY at the moment! And that is with dp at 64 so am glad the AC is on because the brick does absorb that warmth. It's possible that the cold front might moderate some.
  8. SWDY1 has shifted the area's severe threat further south into the Delmarva - Am currently at my low for the morning - 53, with dp 52 and the sidewalk is wet, so have had some non-measurable something overnight.
  9. Had to fire up the central air a couple hours ago to cool it down in here since the fans were useless and I figured that it was a good time to test it out to make sure it was operating okay. The warm front has been wavering in the area and it took a bit to get the temps here into the mid-60s vs yesterday's 77. So far it has gotten as high as 67 after a low of 55 and it's currently partly sunny and 64 with dp 56.
  10. SWDY2 has a good chunk of the lower 1/3rd of the CWA under a "Marginal Risk" for severe - I managed to remain mild overnight with a "low" (so far) at 57. Currently overcast (had some low stratus earlier) and 59 with dp 58.
  11. SPC SWDY2 has Philly metro, S. Jersey, and all of Delaware in "Marginal Risk" - If the temps do get anywhere near the 80s on Thursday and the cold front manages to generate a significant a strong squall line, then it might get interesting around these parts.
  12. Actually ended up hitting 77 for a high and it's currently partly sunny and 72 with dp that has crept up to 60.
  13. I was seeing some sites forecasting possible 80s Thursday. Someone busted out a weed whacker too. Now up to 76 with dp 57. Also partly sunny with lots of cumulus!
  14. Solid 75 IMBY with 57 and partly cloudy. Heard someone nearby pull out the lawn mower.
  15. Latest severe storms reporting - I know one of those was barreling on the ground not far from Great Adventure and I hope they really check and double check and triple check before trying to reopen Wednesday.
  16. You were the first one I was thinking of when I saw them mention "Wrightstown". Glad you guys got through that!
  17. Definitely where you are! I know I grew up with the "avoid planting until after Mother's Day" and for the tenders, we wait until after Memorial Day. A lot of garden centers have been wiped out in the past and will often hold back on putting out tender annuals (mostly veggie plants like tomatoes and peppers) until later in May, although a few forget and sometimes get their plants fried expectantly.
  18. Finally getting chance to post but latest summary from Mt. Holly - 2 EF1s from 6 tornadoes confirmed -
  19. With the rain that we have gotten so far, assuming it doesn't suddenly go bone dry, chances are there would be no "triple digit" summer. I do recall a pile of heatwave or near-heatwave 3rd-week-of-Aprils during my years of living in an apartment building that had central heat/air and that didn't turn on the chillers until May. Ended up buying my own window AC to mitigate that. Glad to be in a house with a thermostat that I can control.
  20. I have seen frosts as late as the 2nd or 3rd week of May. I had actually bottomed out at 40 on May 8, 2017 and I expect it was colder north and west of here. But for now, I'm at 61 and mostly sunny with dp up to 41.
  21. Looks like I bottomed out at 32 at 6:19 am this morning (with dp having gone as low as 13) and then a couple puffs of a breeze broke that up. Currently sunny and 37 with dp recovering and at 24.
  22. A 5th tornado (4th for NJ) confirmed - Cinnaminson tornado was determined to be an EF1 -
  23. One of Brett Adair's crew chase of the Bridgeville, DE tornado -
  24. Tornado confirmed near Bridgeville, DE - Also for the tier now with the growing season underway, some frost/freeze headlines are up - There is a star magnolia not far from me that has been in bloom for sometime although I expect it is past its peak. My lilacs have started leafing out although I don't think the late-blooming one has flower buds up yet (have to look closely). That one doesn't normally bloom until May.
