  1. I also bought a good manual rain gauge so that I could start reporting to https://www.cocorahs.org/ I implore everyone here to start that. This area is hurting for people and it would actually make a real difference since there data is ingested for model verification. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  2. I'm excited for this little toy to add to my sensor network. Hopefully will be here in a week. After that I'll have just about all the bases covered from ultrasonic winds to two rain gauges (one tipping bucket), to lightning detector, soil moisture at 5cm/30cm, soil temperature at 5cm along with conductivity, an indoor air quality sensor that has readings available at the 1, 2.5, 5, 10 ug level and CO2. The only little toys left are an evapotranspiration detector on back order that is sold as a "leaf wetness" detector and a really cool laser measurement one that is technically for water tanks but can be converted to snow measurement. That last one is so tempting but I feel like I would just be burning $70 with how little snow we've been getting around here. What I really need to do is get over my fear of heights a bit more so I can move my main sensor from 15 ft up to 25 ft Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  3. I just got nicked so managed .05" but it happened in 3 mins which is 1" per hour rates Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  4. Pure swamp ass outside Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  5. I'm hoping we can get some steady rain. These fast downpours suck due to run off which does nothing to recharge groundwater Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  6. They all are going to be like that today. The AFD kept hammering how efficient the warm rain process will be today with tall skinny cape and warm clouds up to 11k ft. A little blob is going to put down a whole lot of rain. Someone is going to see 2"-5" today. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  7. Heavy heavy rain in camp hill. These little cells are hyper efficient rain producers. I have a feeling the main issue today is going to be some bad flooding. The whole atmosphere is primed that way. Any storm damage is going to come from wet microbursts, but any wind is bad with weakend trees, now a wet upper soil. Uprooted trees are going to happen with any semi significant wind. Hopefully the bigger wind issues stay south today. I'll gladly take my chances with 5" of rain vs even a 40mph gust today Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  8. I'm jealous of the sleeping weather over by Kansas city. Some areas there have had 4 to 6 hours straight of rolling thunder and moderate rain with that MCS slowly crawling. I'd take that so fast. Window open another to hear it all. I think it was summer 2011, that we had that week straight of overnight MCS as we sat on edge of heat dome. It was horrible during the day living in swampland, but every night for a week straight around 2-3am I awoke to thunder, lightning, rain from a slowly dying MCS. If I remember correctly the plants were turbo charged all summer from the plentiful moisture and heat. I feel like some of you still have records from cutting grass that summer.

  9. I think I can find the radar. I texted my friend, but he's on his way to Brazil currently so we shall see. How are farmers summer crops coming along? Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  10. Here are my updated heatwave rankings. It doesn't have the latest one in them simply because I need to wait till July passes to properly weight the temperature. I don't think most people know just how dry the summer of 1966 was, nor that our hotest summer by max temperature was 1949. The 1930's to 1940's were brutal here. Hot summers and crappy snow in the winter. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  11. I tried to find the most defensible position in putting every summer day from 1895 to 2025 on a 2025 scale. I looked at various methods. Homogenization is not meant to answer that question and it provided less clarity the deeper I went. Future work is to try to get more a handle of what I saw there. This i feel is a strong position where I honestly put forth confidence positions. I look forward to feedback. For future work I think there's lots of potential in an area I have not seen developed at all and that is using the aerial surveys that were digitized by Penn State starting in the 1930s through the 1960s all across Pennsylvania where we could actually see the land use changes in real time in the placement for some of these long-term climate sites and the stations that they are correlated with maybe combining that with the metadata we can get a better idea of what was going on at different times and what adjustments are supported which ones are artifacts of piecewise correlations. I find this absolutely thrilling and exciting because it really has a bit explored much from the angle I'm looking at. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  12. I wonder if we are going to get a single good cape verde Atlantic storm this year or if it will all be Gulf and homebrew Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
  13. I need to get the video from my friend. He does his roto drone up so we had a good view of rotating wall cloud. It was cool as shit Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk
