  1. You laugh. Sometimes we actually do open up and dump it. Mostly is happens if, after testing, there's too much turbidity which sometimes occurs right after the spring filters are changed, or we get a heavy rain. With our overweight 8,000 gallon tankers, the state only gives us a permit to run from spring to plant. We can't legally take it back to the yard if something goes wrong.
  2. Watching Debby's remnants keep drifting westward just depresses me.
  3. Nah, bring on the flooding. I need interesting YouTube content...lol All kidding aside, no one really wants flooding, and a slow soaker is the most beneficial. But the cameras will be rolling Friday afternoon/evening anyway.
  4. He's going to have to wait. I'm self-serving. Since I only got .35, I'm taking some to my house first.
  5. I wish I knew. My rain gauge malfunctioned while I was in Arizona, and I fixed it on Memorial Day. I have 9.53" since then, but don't know what I got prior.
  6. You southen guys robbed me of a good rainer...lol Up my way it was rather pedestrian. I got .35" and what's still coming appears to be shrinking south as well. Maybe I get another 0.05" if I'm lucky.
  7. Me too, but that a topic for some other forum...lol Up to .26" in my backyard. Lightning and raining again at the water plant in Fogelsville (Allentown).
  8. That line did do the damage for Tamaqua. All of the good stuff is/was from the Blue Mountain south. Nothing but 0.01" so far in my backyard. .
  9. I just wonder if the line running along I-78 is going to rob energy from up north toward Tamaqua and the Poconos.
  10. They're popping quickly now. Just drove through a deluge from New Tripoli down to Fogelsville/Trexlertown.
  11. And up here I'm wondering if it's not going to live up to the hype. I'm not impressed with the radar thus far. Maybe things will change in a few hours...
  12. It's gonna be a fun night of trucking for me. Watch for a YouTube video sometime by the weekend...
  13. That was really incredible. We were on the eastern fringe and still got 5" out of it, but what happened west of here was something to see. I really thought that band would move east, but it never really did, and the end result was just epic, from a weather geek standpoint. I'm sure those severely impacted didn't think so.
  14. From Walt Drag in the NYC forum. If any of this even comes true, and I'm not sure of the timing of Debby's remnants, it's going to be ugly for some folks. The fact that Drag kind of agrees with this scenario (I highly respect his met skills) speaks volumes to the potential magnitude of this event...
  15. Perusing the meso's this morning, it looks like the region is going to take it on the chin tonight. Nearly all of them indicate some serious storms/rain in the 8pm to midnight hours.
  16. I just woke up, but I finally, just NOW, saw what you did there... She'd have made a great 'cane to do the Gulf up into Texas, that track to the metroplex. The innuendos would have been off the charts.
  17. I don't remember, but they are trying to create their own NWS, along with the unnecessary hype that S&S does.
  18. Arizona has their own version of S&S. Those guys even go so far as to issue their own statements, watches and warnings...
  19. Need to bump that zone west and north. We need the rain, and after living in AZ for a year and a half, I want to see a prolific rainer...lol
  20. I'm late to the party (as usual) but you are correct. If we all got 10 inches of rain each month JFM, and then hardly got anything since then, even though everyone showed a surplus, we'd still be bone dry with low stream levels and dead yards. I'd put more weight on a surplus if that 30+ inches was evenly distributed month to month.
