Just waking up to the bathroom at 4 am and along City ave in Overbrook Park powerlines and fences are still iced over for now (my patio is also elevated though, but I’m surprised to be hovering at freezing still

Finally getting the tiniest of flurries here on City Ave. Good sign I suppose that the column is moist enough for precip…radar echoes are creeping northward into Philly and Delco ever so… the HRRR still has SE PA in a small snowband through early afternoon so I’m crossing my weenie fingers lol

Wait is this forreal? The other footage was incredible but, (to quote Twister), “mother of God…”

Getting deluged here on City Ave…some of the heaviest rain I’ve seen all summer. My lights are flickering!

Was coming here to post the same. Prob 40-50 mph gusts here with that outflow boundary. I probably won’t see any thunderstorms now bc of it though lol

Wow that was probably some of the closest lightning strikes/ loudest thunder I’ve experienced in a long time. About a dozen or so extremely close CG bolts, all less than a half mile away or so. I live next to Morris Park so there’s a lot of trees/ open ground to catch lightning. Cars up and down the street had their alarms set off several times. Great show! Had me taking cover afar back from the windows haha!

Pouring rain with lots of lightning and thunder. my rain buckets are filling up! Thank ye rain gods

feeling like I’m at a casino playing roulette hoping for a good drenching today! I hear thunder from that popcorn storm in Delco near Drexel Hill… Do I feel lucky?

I’m gonna try to ignore that pop up storm by West Chester that fizzled out on its way to me here at the 3-way juncture of Philly, Delco, and Montco

So I’m not the only houseplant parent that spoils the kiddies! If only they knew how much angst I put myself through when we go stretches without heavy rain! Lol

Ok so here we go again…HRRR says there should be a thunderstorm sitting atop my head here on City Ave around 8 tonight. Don’t want flash floods but my rain cistern is almost empty! (I hate using tap water for my houseplants lol) I just need a good 10-15 min downpour!

Dissipated again! Just a quick spritz and distant thunder here to mock me lol. Never thought I’d turn into a summertime weenie lol

I guess I should be relieved to not have flash floods, but here in Overbrook Park we got maybe 5 raindrops total, same as it’s been all weekend as every thunderstorm complex has dissipated somewhere in central Delco or the mainline on its way here. my garden needed some of these storms today ugh

SN big fat lazy flakes on City Ave, these multiple-day, multiple waves of low pressure systems this winter have definitely come through in the clutch.

Yup another city proper lurker here, though I’m off city ave about 2 min from Wynnewood/Ardmore. still getting a SN/IP mix, + at times...though I’m envious of those with a fully cold column and pure snow ☃️
