  1. We need rain, but I'm getting tired of it waiting until I start my 2pm work shift to start. Then it ends by midnight, ironically right when I park the truck at the end of my shift.
  2. I was shocked when I saw it. The only rain in the entire state, and it just popped up out of nowhere.
  3. Where did this come from? I didn't think any rain/storms were forecasted for tonight.
  4. Alright, who wants their lawn watered? I'm loading one up right now...
  5. Even better. When I came back they put me on an 8,000 gallon tank.
  6. It's cooler, but I'm not noticing the less humid part, either.
  7. Getting soaked in Allentown at my delivery location for the second time tonight. It just doesn't want to stop raining here. Nearest station here showing 0.89", and it's still raining. I thought it would stop shortly after the line blew through.
  8. We've been in solid sunshine all morning. Currently 92 degrees here. Missed out on last night's storms. Let's see what happens here today, considering the abundant sunshine.
  9. I don't know. It appears I'm in the ballpark. I'm sitting with DP of 73, and many stations are on or two degrees more or less than mine. Look at Allentown for example.
  10. Yes. A baseball's throw just west of the Little Schuylkill River which runs right through town.
  11. 90 degrees at 10am. Outside of Arizona, I don't think I've ever recorded an earlier 90 reading at my location.
  12. I did question this the past couple of days, but comparing my station against a mercury thermometer in the shade on my back porch, the numbers are comparable. I just now looked at the NWS hourly roundup, and my current 71 dewpoint is equally comparable with all the reporting stations in the region. If it's off, it's not by much.
  13. All this hype about the heat index for the upcoming days, and just last week I recorded a 110 and a 113 heat index, or "feels like" temperature if you prefer on my home station. So far they say what? 105? If so, my recordings were much higher and much worse.
  14. 93 steamy degrees here. That morning rain made it really humid now.
  15. So that unexpected little storm dropped 0.27" in my backyard. Now they've gone severe warned in Berks and Lehigh Counties.
  16. So that un-predicted little storm dropped 0.27" in my backyard.
  17. And now it's raining and thundering with three pop up cells around me...
  18. I'm at 91 / 94 / 88 for those same three days. We'll see if they bust low for my backyard.
  19. My station is evidently correct. Full sun and reading 83. The mercury thermometer in the shade under our patio roof is 82. I guess Tamaqua has just become one of the warmer locations in the region.
