  1. Made it up to 60 for a high today after a 49 low. Dews were definitely down today compared to yesterday and the breezes that had kicked in yesterday evening, continued much of today. Currently partly sunny and 56 with dp 36.
  2. Ended up with a couple hundreds more rain this morning for a grand total of 0.11". Bottomed out at 55 and hit 67 for a high so far today once the sun came out. It's currently mostly sunny, with a few clouds here and there, and 66, with a dp 42.
  3. He sent a follow-up email to report he had at least 6" of snow and I told him that it had to be that wet heavy stuff since the temps were marginal. Got some moisture here starting after about 1 am and have registered 0.09" of it so that's more than Sunday's bust. Currently overcast, misty, and 58 with dp 57.
  4. Wow. You can't catch a break. Maybe the fish will be bountiful! this year!
  5. My uncle who lives in a 'burb outside of St. Paul, MN emailed this morning that they broke a record last week of 85 and this morning, he has a couple inches of snow. lol Wiggum Rule on steroids. Currently overcast here and 66 with dp 61.
  6. The cell(s) just sat over that general area for hours. There was a flash flood in Ancient Oaks too... Bur I had this vision of you doing this - Ended up with 77 as a high yesterday and 0.01" of rain. It's currently 60, overcast and misty with low stratus and a dp of 59.
  7. I have been in a hole here too - stuff to the north and west. Have exactly 0.01" from when I had originally reported drizzle and nothing since. I know sometimes in these "popcorn storm" situations, something can bubble up out of nowhere but if not, then I suppose I can look forward to Monday. Currently changeable skies and 72 with dp 61.
  8. Sun's been in and out and with it out now for a little longer, some popcorn stuff is bubbling up including something up near birds. Have been hearing thunder and getting convection registering on the detector. Currently some foreboding clouds but party sunny and 74 with dp 63.
  9. Getting some dribbles out there (was out dividing some perennials). I think my accumulation of hail last month was "winter". Currently overcast, 73, and drizzling strike that, am actually getting rain now, with a humid dp of 66. Am also picking up some convection on my lightning detector.
  10. I "heard" the notifications beeping for here, checked my radar, and sure enough saw something had spontaneously appeared up north. Am wondering if our buddy in Macungie is outside dancing naked in any rain (or hail). I ended up bbing yesterday afternoon figuring it would have been raining here today (at least some spotty showers were forecast beginning overnight and into the morning, and on/off all day. Haven't had any of that yet but at least yesterday was pleasant. It has been mostly overcast here with some occasional self-destruct sun. Am currently at 77, which is my high so far for the day (nowhere near the highs the past couple days), after a low of 62, and with a more juicy dp of 66.
  11. Made it up to 86 for a high today in the "cooler" parts of the CWA based on the position of the high. Just came in after firing up the grill and getting some stuff cooked up for next week, and the temps today were fantastic. Not blazing hot nor humid. I know the rain is incoming this weekend so wanted to get the grill-on now. Currently all clouded up, 80, and am seeing stuff lifting up from the south. But have a dp that is a pleasant 44.
  12. When one of my sisters moved into her house back in the summer of 2003, her neighbor's oak tree was literally raining down a billion acorns that fall. You could barely sit out on her deck without getting the equivalent of weeks of hail (but not with ice) raining down until frost. LOL As we know, that year before, the area was in a major drought that had started the winter of 2001 and peaked by August 2002 - It finally broke that September with what eventually was downgraded to TS Isidore (one of the retired "I" storms) that wet the ground and was the beginning of the end of that unusual dry period. Fast forward 20 years and over that time, there have been years of some acorn drop, perhaps light to normal, but nothing like 2003 - at least until last year, when the acorns rained down again. That was the year after the remnants of Hurricane Ida flooded the area and spawned multiple tornadoes. From my weather station, August 2021 had almost 11" of rain, and on Sept. 1, 2021 when that Ida precip. blew through, I had an almost 5 1/2" single day rainfall. As a quick obs, I am already at 84 with dp 54 and a lot of cirrus above!
  13. Actually bottomed out at 57, which was a bit cooler this morning than yesterday and I'm off to the races and currently 70, partly sunny with lots of cumulus, and with a dp of 53. El Nino Watch is on after the La Nina 3-peat!
  14. Bottomed out at 61 this morning and have just hit 87 with full sun and relatively "low" dp of 53.
  15. Looks like I maxed out at 82 today, with blue skies and an active breeze. It's currently 80 and sunny with dp 49.
  16. Like the acorns on oak trees, it is usually a result of the previous year's weather and the tree's response to it. The baby pine cones form now and eventually mature in the fall and will fall off during late fall through winter. It is like this every year around this time. It's the brief "dry warmth" before the slop bin humidity hits. I always chuckle about the period from now until maybe mid-May being the perfect time for roofers to do their work without excessive rains and heat. After that... As an obs, I have already surpassed my yesterday's high and am currently mostly sunny and 76 with dp 48.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. You're under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch down there - Eyes on the skies!
  23. 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.
  24. 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.
