    Some updated OBS and a couple links for winter progs by an EU site I like to read as they monitor SSWs. Sunday's high/low were 59/40, where the high didn't come until almost 6:30 pm after 0.43" of rain. Monday's high/low were 56/39 with quite a bit of changeable skies but mostly on the cloudy side. The breezes finally went calm long enough to drop the temp this morning to my low of 31 and there was definitely frost out there with a dp of 30 at that time. The breeze has picked up again and it's currently partly cloudy and 40 with dp 31. This is the site that I like to look at this time of year - https://www.severe-weather.eu/ Their latest blog posts - https://www.severe-weather.eu/global-weather/winter-pattern-december-blocking-cold-air-polar-vortex-split-united-states-europe-fa/ https://www.severe-weather.eu/long-range-2/winter-season-2022-2023-snowfall-predictions-final-forecast-united-states-canada-europe-cold-start-fa/

    Thanksgiving temps were in the rare mild range as many years it has been bundle-up cold and even with flakes flying. But my high Thursday was 55. Ended up reaching 57 yesterday with 0.02" of rain, and since the sun came out in the afternoon, I was able to get some outdoor window wreaths up, albeit with some windy conditions to deal with. And after a 39 low this morning, it looks like 55 will be my high for today. It's currently 52 and clear at sunset (with a crescent moon also setting) and with dp 33.

    And the little puffs of breeze overnight finally died down after 6 am and I bottomed out at 32 about 15 minutes before sunrise. It's currently partly sunny and 33 with a thin deck of cirrus and a dp of 30.

    Weather recap as the temps continue to moderate - I eventually had a high of 41 on Monday, 52 on Tuesday, and 55 yesterday, with Tues/Wed. lows of 28 & 30. This morning's low may finally be above freezing. Currently clear and 38 with dp up from earlier in the week, at 32.

    Bottomed out at 22 this morning, the coldest since March 28 of this year. The winds went calm overnight which aided in that radiational cooling. It's currently sunny with blue skies and 37, but with a dp that is still vacillating between 9 and 10, so the cold dry arctic air is still making its presence felt.

    Beat me to it! I managed to just tap 34 IMBY today as a "high" just before 4:30 pm and that was it. That's like January weather. It's currently a clear and breezy 31 with dp 10.
  7. Hurricane Agnes
    Made it up to 40 as a high yesterday and bottomed out this morning at a "warmer"-than- yesterday-morning 30 due to the wind gusts overnight, so not ideal for radiational cooling. It's currently sunny and 32 and don't expect to get much warmer as the dp is now getting close to or in the upper single digits at 10 (9.7). Humidifiers working overtime!

    Ended up with a high of 43 yesterday and got my first flakage of the season to boot. Was at the movies last night in Flourtown and when I left to go there, it was around 40 with some sprinkles. Then outside the theater with the active breeze, the flakes were noticeable (took a few minutes for me to point them out to my sister because the winds were blowing almost horizontally which made it harder to see but when it let up, they were definitely there). After the movie, it was already down to 35. This morning I registered my first "hard freeze" (temp = 28 and below) with a 26. It's recovering now and up to a partly cloudy 32, with dp an arctic 20 (had to start pulling out the humidifiers yesterday because it got down to 22% inside ).

    Ended up with a high of 49 Wednesday and another humdredth of an inch of rain for a 2-day even total of 1.65" After a low of 30 yesterday, only made it to 44 and was out in the gusty winds of it too. I will say since this is fall (vs spring) the ground warmth has still been holding so the temp mix didn't make it too annoying. Low so far this morning has been 30 and it's currently clear and 31. The brief intermittent light breezes overnight and early this morning, have kept the bottom from falling out. See you guys ended up jinxing me to watching one of his chasers with Hurricane Ian. I will say though, I won't forget Randy, forky and crew driving up to the Tug Hill Plateau to chase a big lake effect snow event and live-blogging it here (with pics) on what I think at the time, was still EasternWx before the site name change.

    Ended up with 1.35" of rain yesterday and so far 0.29" this morning as the storm wraps up (event total 1.64"). Low so far this morning has been 39 and it's currently misty and 41 with dp 41.
  11. Hurricane Agnes
    Although down to some lighter rain, I did have a heavier period and currently have 0.73" recorded from the event so far. Currently at 38 with dp 37.
  12. Hurricane Agnes
    Made it up to 44 before the precipitation started and so far I haven't observed any frozen but mainly light rain, which has picked up in intensity a bit now. The temps are marginal with current at 38, with dp 35, so will have to see which air mass wins out. Have 0.12" in the bucket so far.

    12z NAM and 12z GFS for today's precip (NAM & GFS really west along the coast compared to the Euro).

    Looks like we went from summer to winter. LOL Saturday's final high was 69, Sunday's H/L was 59/38 and yesterday's H/L was 45/32. This morning's low was 31, which is the coldest here since the end of March. It's currently clouding over, and partly sunny, and 42 wit dp 30. 6z EC shows the expected warm/rain scenario for the southern part of the CONUS.

    Ended up with another 0.17' of rain this morning for a 2-day total (with yesterday's 0.61") of 0.78". Had a mild "low" this morning of 64 and the sun has finally busted out in the past hour or so where there is lots of cumulus so it is a partly sunny 66, with dp slowly dropping, and at 55.
  16. Hurricane Agnes
    Managed to pick up 0.61" today (so far), the heaviest being between 3 pm - 4 pm. It's been hard to call a high with the warm temps but will go with the 70 that I hit around 5 pm. It's currently an overcast, soupy and misty 68 with dp 68. Big changes on the way!
  17. Hurricane Agnes
    Well the "S word" storm was an example of one and 2012 was also a La Nina ENSO year - https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/monthly-report/summary-info/global/201212#:~:text=2012 was also warmest "La,La Niña year on record.

    Lessee where I left off... ended up with highs/lows of 53/44 (Tues), 53/37 (Wed), and 67/38 (Thurs). After a low of 56 earlier this morning, I also had a light passing shower deposit 0.02" but now steadier light rain has overspread the area and I'm up to 0..07" so far. It's currently 63 with light rain and dp 63.

    My 44 low this morning meant they got to sleep in... possibly for good! I was in and out watching it from about 4:40 am until it disappeared behind a nearby house just before 6 am. Pic was taken just before 5:30 am. The Orion constellation in the general vicinity, was prominent! It's currently mostly sunny and 49, with dp down to 34, and some wispy cirrus overhead. Am keeping an eye on Nicole as we seem to be in the cone for rain.

    Just popped out back to take a look at the moon and actually heard a lone cricket out there chirping. The winds have dropped off noticeably so looks like I might get some decent radiational cooling. Currently a moonlit 68 with dp 46.
  21. Hurricane Agnes
    Managed to hit 75 as a high today and the cold front that blew through took the dews almost 20 degrees from earlier this morning. It's currently 71 with dp 46, and with what might be a very high deck of cirrus. Big pile of RERs today too for highs broken -
  22. Hurricane Agnes
    Ended up with a 74 high today and actually picked up 0.02" from that light band that came through earlier. There's currently a deck of cirrus overhead and it's an amazing 69 (just dropped from 70), with dp 64.
  23. Hurricane Agnes
    Got some light rain, enough to wet the sidewalk but so far, not enough to tip the bucket. Did hit 70 before it clouded over and it's currently overcast and 69 with dp 65.
  24. Hurricane Agnes
    Some RERs yesterday at multiple sites - Allentown (record high tied) - Record high at Reading - Record high min at Mt. Pocono - And a couple records in AC (record high min and tie of that at the airport and Marina) - As an obs, so far my "low" has been 64 this morning, and it's currently 65 with a deck of cirrus overhead, and dp 63.
  25. Hurricane Agnes
    Got up to 76 as a high and yup, busted out the grill! Also needed to turn the AC on 'cause. Brick house. Had lots of cumulus bubbling up out there today, so the sun was in and out, but there was a nice breeze... Otherwise it's currently partly sunny and 75 with dp 62.
