0.57" here, and the sun is back out. I'll take it. I would imagine areas a little further north got a lot more with this batch.
-
Just getting clipped by the heavy stuff this round, that tracks from here to further north. Raining hard with rumbling thunder and some wind kicked up before. Up to 0.4". I have to work the Sussex County Fair tonight, starting at 7, so it looks like this batch will be out by then.
-
Skeptical. Looks like the precipitation is what's typical southwest to northeast movement from western PA into NY state and will miss the area entirely. It matches closely the blue region on bluewave's map where much of the rainfall has formed and moved recently, over the same areas. Unless more of it forms down towards the Philly area later on. Which is always a great unknown, what forms on radar, and lately, it hasn't been much for most.
-
Looks like a rainy and stormy morning just off to my north. I would love to see a comparison of the last 45 days or so for total rainfall for Port Jervis, NY vs. Andover NJ. It seems I'm spending a lot of time this summer watching storms train off to my north while remaining high and dry here. I'm not sure where to readily pull such information myself or I would.
-
Some rumbles and funky sky with the setting sun, but it looks like almost zilch on the rain, just a few drops. The cells split me, one to the north and one to the south.
-
Overcast, but muggy. Thinking if cloudy conditions persist, that will reduce the chances of severe this afternoon.
-
just evaporates north of Atlantic City/Philly.
-
The slopes of these graphs are astounding. Close to a 2 degree increase per decade.
-
We're already there, they've been here, upper 70s, low 80s dews have been quite common this summer.
-
Several stations in NJ are reaching 80+ dewpoints, with HIs already topping 105.
-
Honest Question: Does any reputable source track average dewpoints over time? It would be interesting to see if there is a correlation toward higher dewpoints and recent changes to our climate.
-
0.65" overnight - brief but torrential rains with thunder and lightening.
-
Surprised there was no Heat Advisory today, unless I missed it. Dewpoints of 80+ can be found on a few stations, with Heat Indexes reaching 105-110. Felt just lovely.
-
A several stations, particularly in Southern, NJ, have reached 80-81 dewpoints this afternoon. Make sense given all that rain they had this morning, combining saturated ground with very humid air. Yuck!
-
0.77" total so far. It keeps backfilling, prolonging it some. Also looks like a bow could be starting again, last frame or two.
-
Quarter inch of rain in 4 minutes.
-
Getting in on it now. Absolute deluge, with thunder and lightening, but no wind yet.
-
I'm under a warning now. Cell looks nasty, maybe bowed out a bit too. Time to move the truck again. We'll see what happens.
-
It's interesting watching again the storms go about 20-25 miles off to my north along the Sussex/Orange County border. It's not that we don't get anything (think Thursday), but this seems to be the case 7 or 8 times out of 10. You can almost pick Montague/Port Jervis/Warwick, as the start of the line and from there on north and east, and you'd be right 80% of the time.
-
Looks like things weakened. Just some light to moderate rain. Looks like that's over shortly.
-
I was down in Ledgewood and Randolph today. Once I hit about the southern part of Stanhope, and then into Mount Olive, I noticed tree debris increase substantially and that continued down Route 10 for a ways. The trip back took me along Lower Berkshire Valley - noticed several large limbs down and crews were still out working in spots this afternoon. Nothing to that degree up this way, so whatever it was really got cranking down in that area.
-
Ouch. Not quite that bad up where I am in Sparta, but still very gusty which knocked down a few smaller branches. Power was out for about 30 seconds. It was enough though for me to jump in the truck and quick move it down the block away from the bigger trees, and pray I didn't get pegged in the process. I've been after them for years here about tree trimming because, eventually, my luck will run out.
-
Love the 82 degree dew point, which might be accurate for that particular moment. My station was showing 79 earlier. Oppressive.
-
I can see the lightening off to my NW. All afternoon I've been watching the storms skip off to the north over High Point and Wantage - looks like I'll get something from these, although not as impressive as up north from earlier.
-
They've been getting hammered pretty good the past couple of afternoons up in NE and upper NY state.
