  1. Light rain commenced here a few minutes ago. Not enough to put anything in the gauge yet, though. The HRRR has gotten a bit more robust with getting a decent amount of rain back into the Skook, and initial radar trends seem to back that up, but we'll just have to wait and see...
  2. It's an Acu-Rite all in one. I got it back in 2012, so they make a nice, newer, more technically advanced set-up these days that's fairly reasonable in price. https://www.acurite.com/shop-all/weather-instruments/weather-stations.html
  3. I can't seem to get a good grip on what this potential tropical system is going to do. The NAM seems to want to keep it east of the Delaware river now, while the GFS now is bringing decent rains into Eastern PA. The Euro from 0z looks like the NAM and the Canadians were always OTS.
  4. More rain. I'll have an updated "total" when I get back in the house...
  5. We just got another 1.50" of rain today. I guess from here on out I better shut up about the Tamaqua Split...
  6. Had one last little burst that put us up to 2.82" for the event. Both storms that got us formed nearly right over Tamaqua, and just kept building. Each one produced hail, but the second one was more intense than the first and produced the larger sized stones pictured, as well as wind that brought down a few large tree limbs. There was about a half hour lull between the storms. The USGS automated gauge shows slightly more at almost exactly 3 inches...
  7. Had a pre-line storm form right over Tamaqua which split the line up in Hazleton. Now we'll be in the gap in that line created by the out front renegade.
  8. Bring on the heat! It ain't summer without it... But we here in the east have been wetter than other parts of the sub forum. What we lose in temperature we may gain in humidity.
  9. Had what looked like a nice cell taking direct aim at us from the Bloomsburg area only to hit I-81 and nearly disintigrate. It reformed southeast of town and looks to soak West Penn Township and the Blue Mountain.
  10. Just finished off a good rain storm. Not much wind and no thunder, but touched 6" per hour rates. Got 0.86" out of it in a very brief time.
  11. Ended up with 0.35" overnight. A more organized cluster came up from Pine Grove after I went to bed and gave us some rain and a few rumbles of thunder.
  12. Thought we were going to get a good storm as there was a line moving northeast from the Pine Grove/Tower City area toward Pottsville. As it got close, a rogue cell moved north from Kutztown up to Parryville and exploded east of Lehighton, which robbed the line to my west of most of it's energy. The Tamaqua Split® is still in effect...lol
  13. What??? Were you up here in Tamaqua yesterday?
  14. For their employees, but what if the employee is the one with the virus? Now they just passed it on to the customer by returning the bag they had their hand in.
  15. As far as the kick in above the state unemployment weekly benefit rate, I'd be happy if the Feds would just add in the difference to get folks to their normal 40 hour work week. Even that would be a big help.
  16. Aren't we kind of getting into the better range for the mesos over the globals, though? If we are than that would give the edge to the NAM. I'm watching this closely as I'm a trucker heading back east from California in the time frame for the storm. I usually run 40 to 44 to 70, but if it's going to be bad in Oklahoma, I may just head right on up to 70 and go through Colorado and Kansas.
  17. I just notice that on the radar. Wow. DC is ripping snow and you are getting rain. This is the most unbelievable winter I've ever seen...
  18. And as it turns out, it wasn't warmth and rain we had to worry about...
  19. While this may be true, for some people it's just not possible to look outside the region where they live. Take me for example. If I were in a career where it would be likely I'd have to move to get a job, since my wife WILL NOT leave the region, I'd either be jobless or divorced.
  20. If this weren't a weather board I'd swear you were talking about truck driving. What you described is almost dead-on in the transportation field as well.
