Hurricane Agnes

STS Watches up - After a low of 69 yesterday, I only made it up to 77 and actually eked out 0.06" of rain. Today after a low of 70, I managed to cash in on the overnight thunder-bumper to get 0.47" of rain (had hit about the limit before needing to hand-water out there, although the temps the past week were thankfully not the mid-upper 90s, so that helped stretch it). Currently partly sunny, 86 and tropical, with dp 76

Had a high of 86 yesterday and a low this morning of 67 as the dewpoint finally got down into the lower 60s. There's a quasi-stationary front nearby that I guess is streaming clouds and stuff up along the coast and overhead so it's currently overcast and 75 with dp 62. Probably October! At least down this way. That's when I start preparing my potted "tender" tropicals to bring in for winter (that set of plants don't like night temps below the low-mid 50s). Also keeping an eye on the Atlantic as Ernesto may pop off in the next couple days. The first WINTER CANCEL! Bookmarked.

The round 3 of rain took me up to 0.37" and a final round of rain last night depositing another 0.04", gave me a total of 0.41" for Friday (4-day event total was 3.27" and am now at 5.24" for the month of August so far). Had a low of 70 this morning and it's currently mostly sunny and 75 with dp 70.

The heaviest portion of the band seemed to break apart as it approached MBY but has since reformed to my east. I had a round 2 of rain that had taken me to 0.10" and am currently under light to moderate rain that has given me an additional 0.18" for 0.28" at post time. So after a 75 low and 85 high, it's currently 76 and moderate rain with dp 76.

Got some dribs and drabs between 1 am - 5 am for 0.04" in the bucket. SPC just expanded the Tornado Watch into our immediate CWA - There's a strip of overrunning rain just to my west. Currently 76 with dp 76 and misty.

Ended up with a high of only 72 today but it was so muggy that I needed to put the AC on anyway. I got a not-too-shabby round 3 of rain that pushed up from the SE that added 0.75" onto my 0.31" to give me 1.06" so far for today (3-day total of 2.88" and monthly total of 4.83"). Currently in a rain pause with temp of 72 and dp 72. I was up there about 10 years ago on a muggy overcast and threatening day and i can see why they might cancel given how much of it is "outside", although they do have much of it normally under tents. Could be they were concerned about some cell that might pop up and upend stuff. Yeah i saw that and I know the possibility was progged as Debby pushed north.

After a low of 66 this morning, I managed to get a round 1 of rain between 5 - 6 am from a pre-Debby band that lifted up from the south, giving me 0.19". Have been under some more scattered rain now backing in and lifting up from the SE for an additional 0.12" for a round 2, giving me 0.31" total at post time. Currently misty with some intermittent light rain and 70, with dp 70.

Ended up with 1.48" overnight and 0.32" after midnight, for a 2-day event total of 1.80". Currently a misty 70 with dp 70.

Just passed the 1" mark and under a heavier blobette. Getting >1.75"/hr rates and up to 1.03" in the bucket. Plus now getting thunder/visble lightning. (ETA about 1" in just under 45 minutes)

Got an EAS for Flash Flood Warning. Currently getting >0.5"/hr rates. Have 0.75" in the bucket with temp 74 and dp 73 (+ steamy windows).

>2.5"/hr rates. Currently have 0.46 at post time for my own round 1. Temp down to 75 with dp 73.

And as soon as I posted, here it comes!

As solid as the radar looks, I still haven't gotten anything yet. There is a band approaching so might get something. Temp is down to 77 with dp 73 and have been picking up nearby convection (but no thunder).

Complete fizzle, miss, and formation of a precip. hole here. Temp had dropped some but is back up to 83 with dp 74. Am not whining yet since I did get some last Fri/Sat/Sun. i know there are plenty of chances the rest of the week from Debby. Seeing more sagging down.

92 and 80 dp.

There's a bunch forming now including one that may be zooming north of you.

ST Watches are up - Current temp here is 93 with dp 78.

Had a low of 77 this morning and it's currently 91 with dp 78, so something is definitely bound to pop up later this afternoon with that combo (particularly with the front). WPC has it juicy here... Once Debby drifts back out into the Hotlantic, it will refuel and just tear up the coast.

Get ready! As an obs, I made it up to 92 as a high and it's currently 88 and partly cloudy with dp 73.

After a low of of 73 this morning, am currently mostly sunny and 89 with dp 71. You're almost in the cone!

Getting a round 2 shot - so far with an additional 0.05" along with some thunder. Currently have 0.43", temp 78, dp 77. Oh and "steamy windows alert".

That little line gave me 0.38" when all was said and done, giving me a 3-day total of 1.40". Before the rain, I hit a high of 83 (with a low of 72) and it's currently overcast, but clearing and misty, with a temp of 78 and dp of 77.

> 1"/hr rates for what will probably be a quick hitter. Have 0.19" in the bucket as post time. Temp 78 with dp 75.

There is a little line that formed that is incoming here in NW Philly. Will see if it holds together and gives me anything of note. Am just starting to get rain and am hearing thunder and it's coming down! I think the names are done by the international met organization. I was trying to check to see if there was a "Debbie" that might have been retired in the past.

Ended up with an additional 0.14" for a 3-round 0.65" for Saturday, and a 2-day total of 0.72". The high yesterday topped off at 91 before the rains dropped the temp significantly. Currently 72 with dp 71.
