Outside of a rogue sprinkle or shower it looks like 2.69" is going to be my event final total.
-
Can you imagine PLAYING football in that??? On to the local weather. Rain is falling once again, and we are now up to 2.46" for the event which is in the ballpark of what "some" of the models were pointing out. Considering the flood warnings and advisories, I suspect some got more, but still, I was kind of expecting about an inch and a half, so we did ok for a change...
-
2.19" as of 6:00AM...

Well, it's starting to look like the eastern part of CTP's zones will get the shaft and end up with just another miserable light rain day from what's left of Florence. The heaviest axis of precipitation appears to be in far west central and the Pittsburgh zones...

I think I'm just going to keep my mouth shut on this one...

Yeah. It was feast or famine, but mostly famine. I had one four day work week, and the rest were two or three. Can't earn a living that way. Relying on the general public to book charters is risky business. Hauling freight has some slow times, bit is still more consistent. Now for some weather to keep on topic. Looking at my CTP forecast, Sunday appears to be the only nice day for awhile as clouds and showers return next Monday for most of next week.

I knew you guys were. How could you not resist considering how much I complain? As for me, I'm feeling much better. Still sore sometimes, but my overall health feels much better. Who knew how bad an overactive thyroid could make you feel? I sure didn't. I'm sleeping better, I have a crazy appetite right now, and I feel less tired and more energetic.

What we miss on is the exciting rains and events. Since the rainy season started on July 21st. many areas have had out and out deluges. We, on the other hand, were mostly on the moderate side. Duration, and not intensity is what got my location to where it is. I'd rather an intense deluge than a long, drawn out, dismal event.

1.24" was the final. final total here.
-
Got 1.17" since 7pm tonight. Crazy...
-
We usually miss. The planets and stars must have aligned just right tonight...
-
Picked up another half inch of rain tonight from some quick hitting, heavy showers that I wasn't expecting... Yearly total is now 52.78".
-
Well, the 12z ICON did show that, but I don't believe it's a very reliable model. There's a reason why the NWS and NHC use the Euro/GFS/NAM/UK/Canadian as their models. As much as I'd love to see the ICON scenario happen, it most likely won't.
-
The GFS (which doesn't seem meteorologically possible) destroys the OBX as she sits just offshore with days and days of hurricane force winds and rain. The Euro on the other hand brings her in at Wilmington, NC and then a slow crawl past Raleigh to the VA/NC border and kind of stalls her there where she rains herself out over that region.
-
Total precip for me is 0.36" and a rather chilly 54 degrees up here. Gonna get shafted some with Gordon's rain, and then, as it looks right now, Florence doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of impacting PA at all with that crazy stall. The Euro track would be perfect if she'd just keep moving...
-
I just looked at this mornings Euro and GFS. The Euro gets Florence's precip right to the Mason-Dixon Line, hammers Virginia with 15-25 inches, and then shuts it off, and the GFS, well...it's out to lunch as it keeps all the rain offshore, with a whopping 95 inches out over the open Atlantic...
-
I'm looking for the ridge to align itself so Florence doesn't stall, rides the Chesapeake, and heads straight into eastern PA before exiting New England...
-
For some, maybe. My area? I know better. We will miss a good chunk of Gordon's remnants to the west and north, and Florence's will never get here.
-
And to think, I gotten a whopping 0.00" so far. For some reason, Tamaqua is known as the "Land of the Running Water", but I'm not sure why. Whenever we have a precipitation event, we are one of the areas with the LOWEST totals. Perhaps what they meant was that the water "runs away" from Tamaqua...
-
Amazing...not a single drop here yet. Gauge reading 0.00"
-
I've been paying so much attention to Florence, that I totally forgot about Gordon's remnants. Looks like 3 inches+ for many here per the 3k NAM.
-
Exactly my sentiment. My family gets so angry at me for it because they don't understand...
-
Thanks Maytown! Staying overnight, but got the Eagles game on, so all is good...lol
-
Thanks! Been out of surgery for about 4 hours now, and sure am sore in the front throat area, especially swallowing. They are keeping me overnight for observation, but have said I'm doing good!
