  1. Updates were issued for SPC's SWDY1 and SWDY2 forecasts. SWDY1 - SWDY2 -
  2. LOL I remember years when there was a literal heatwave with 90s the 3rd week of April and anyone living in an apartment building still had to have required heat service until at least May. Currently 81 here (high so far) and dp 60, with a lot of high clouds.
  3. I think I hit near my low this morning at 53 but am currently partly cloudy and 54 with dp 49 just before sunrise. SPC SWDY1 Outlook - And SPC SWDY2 - Will have to see how the temps/humidity goes the next couple days regarding stability issues with the incoming front/precip Thursday.
  4. After a low of 47 this morning and a passing shower depositing 0.01" rain, I ended up tapping 72 as a high for today (at least so far). It's currently 70 and mostly sunny with dp 48 (although the dp got as high as 53 earlier today).
  5. That was back when the Flyers were flying high and would eventually get a pair of Stanley Cups (the first of which I dragged one of my sisters to go see when it was on display downtown). Barry Ashbee ended up getting that eye injury then and was staying right across the alley at what was the old Wills Eye Hospital (which was across from my school at the time). Me and my bunch of nuts buddies would yell out the window to the hospital calling out his name.
  6. We did used to have the Philadelphia Soul in the interim (although that indoor league went away right before the pandemic hit in 2019).
  7. Made it up to 61 today and it was an overall nice day. Currently partly cloudy and 59 with dp 40. I hate auto-correct but have found that Apple's auto-correct butchers words far worse than Android.
  8. Looks like I bottomed out at 37 and that only happened about an hour ago as there was only a brief period between ~3 am - 4 am when the winds went calm but the rest of the time, there were puffs of breeze to keep things mixed. Currently mostly sunny and 41 with dp 29.
  9. After a low of 40 this morning, I did make it up to 52 and the day has definitely been unsettled although much of the time, the sun was out until late in the afternoon. Currently mostly cloudy and 47 with dp down to 28.
  10. One of those popcorn storms came through here but only wet the sidewalk a bit (not enough to be measurable). If nothing else manages to tip the bucket, I so far registered 0.43" for the day (and 4.81" for the month so far). My high did make it to 56 around 2 pm and it's currently 49 with dp 41 and ever-changing skies as we close in on sunset.
  11. April showers bring May flo... floods? Currently getting a heavy shower (1/3 - 1/2" per hr rates), and with the lighter rain earlier this morning, currently have 0.41" in the bucket at post time. Am now at 4.79" for the month so far and not even past the 2nd week. Current temp is 43 after briefly hitting 48 before the heavier rain came in, with a dp of 42
  12. I think because many of us were still getting snow after the end of the met winter, there may have been a desire to hold...out...just...a...little...bit...longer! There were instances where some of us were getting more during storms in March than those in December. In any case, I got 15.62" between November 1st and March 31 (13.57" of that in D-J-F). My 2 biggest events were 1/7/22 (4.50") and 1/29/22 (4.75").
  13. Finished up with 2.55" of rain for Thursday (and 3.93" for the 3-day event). After a low of 45 yesterday, had high of 55 just after 7 pm last night. Currently 44 with dp 44 and damp.
  14. Flood Warning issued for the Schuylkill in Montco - Now up to 2.47" for the day (3.85" for 3 days) and am getting close to the monthly normal in just 1 week! Current temp is 49 with dp 48, and light rain/drizzle/mist.
  15. WPC's 5 pm update had penciled in our area for this heavy rain - Up here in my area (although this guage is about 5 miles south of me), the Wissahickon (at the mouth to the Schuylkill) is probably getting close to bankfull -
  16. Now over 2.12" for the day (3.50" over 3 days). Temp holding at 49 with dp 49 and currently moderate rain.
  17. Now in a little pause. Have 1.91" for the day (3.29" for the 3 days). Temp down to 49 with dp 49. Flood Advisory was expanded and extended -
  18. Almost 1 1/4" per hr rates (peaking at almost 2"/hr). Now up to 1.75" for the day (3.13" for the 3 days). Temp back down to 52 with dp 51.
  19. Real loud claps of thunder and getting some convection in the area. Currently up to 1.46" with a heavy downpour. Temp still going up and at 55, dp 55.
  20. I think it's about done here too. Now up to 1.21" for the day (so far) which is 2.59" over 3 days and 2.99" for the first week (and month) of April. Temp has crept up to 51 with dp 50 and light rain.
  21. Long discussion on that here (small excerpt below) - https://www.severe-weather.eu/global-weather/april-forecast-weather-pattern-polar-vortex-collapse-jet-stream-usa-europe-fa/
  22. As an obs, currently hae 0.80" in the bucket and it's currently misty with occasional drizzle, and 46 with dp 46.
  23. Flood Watch for the area issued - Also including the Flood Advisory issued a bit less than 2 hours ago -
  24. Have been getting a gully washer storm upwards of an inch/hour rates. Currently have 0.61" in the bucket so far. NWS bot syndicator retweeted from Mt. Holly with the Flood Advisory -
