Current radar looks pretty unimpressive right now. I wonder when, or if, anything good starts to fire up.
-
Maybe, just maybe....today's the day for Tamaqua.
-
Currently 80/55 here in Tamaqua with a nice breeze blowing. This is about as perfect a summer day as you can get.
-
That "taste of fall" next week will even be felt in Phoenix...lol Wednesday A 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly sunny, with a high near 97. East southeast wind around 5 mph becoming west southwest in the afternoon.
-
Same as it ever was... The stuff east of Tamaqua FORMED east of Tamaqua.
-
I feel that pain my friend because it happens entirely too much for me.
-
Negative Nancy post here, but I have no confidence in seeing storms in Tamaqua anymore. That being said, the radar (so far) looks like I may get skunked again with a repeat of the storms north and south, but nothing here. Last week's storms slammed Hazleton north to Scranton and Allentown and southeast... Just like it's been for most of the summer. The pattern of have's and have nots might continue.

I couldn't be more opposite than most of you, mahantango not included. This post, the one above it, and the fact that some trees are changing color here, is a bit depressing.
-
I wake up to see I missed again. An overnight storm complex left southwestern Schuylkill County in a flood warning this morning. Some personal weather stations recorded as much as 4 inches of rain. Sadly, it drifted southeast into Berks County.
-
Well, sometime after I made my post, we jumped enough to actually go above true 90.
-
Looks like I'm going to miss another 90 degree day by a tenth. So far the high is 89.4 degrees.
-
The other is that Tamaqua won't...lol
-
I had 91 yesterday. Wasn't expecting it to be so warm.
-
91 today at the Tamaqua homestead.
-
I cracked 90 with a high of 89.8 yesterday.
-
I moved my Tempest once again to a much more stable location. The neighbors removed a big pine tree, which opened the spot up for me. It's solid now. The "jury rigged" clothesline prop was a bit shaky, and I thought if we got a good enough windy thunderstorm that it might come down. It's not going anywhere here, but is still above the fence, and a bit farther away from the house.
-
Of course! I wouldn't let you down...

Hush....not yet, although I have noticed the later sunrises already.
-
53 this morning here.
-
Two jobs I couldn't imagine doing on a hot, humid day. Roofing and asphalt paving. Both have got to be brutal.
-
The only explanation I have is that I'm a jinx. My wife told me they used to get good storms all the time. Then I moved here and since then, not so much. Actually, I do remember 2006. We got that 16 inches in 4 days. It prompted nearly half the town to be evacuated because they thought the Tuscarora Dam was going to fail as the water from the lake was flowing over the top because they couldn't initially get the flood gates open.
-
On a regional level, I think the flooding rains were over hyped a bit. Locally, I'm sure some places saw torrential downpours and some street level flooding, but otherwise, in my travels from Allentown to Tamaqua, it was not much of anything.
-
Well, I'm a weather geek and a YouTube trucker, so I was hoping for deluges and flooded roads so I could make an interesting video today.
