  1. Does this include Delaware South of I-95 as well ? Mount Holly alluded to this potential in the recent 10:11 AM short-term AFDupdate, but didn't mention what the 12z CAMs showed.
  2. Dew point currently 71 at 8:00 AM., just nasty for mid September.
  3. Exactly, looks aweful ! September should be another August. Climo is getting warmer and warmer right before our eyes.
  4. Fits the pattern of the Euro weeklies which shows a robust WAR into early October. You just need the correct timing, but that is an odds thing. Overall, the potential is there.
  5. I can dream though. I imagine surf temps will be like the last few years, maintining above 70 F. deep into September, maybe even early October.
  6. Mount Holly just added Northern Delaware to a FFW Flood Watch National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 604 PM EDT Wed Sep 8 2021 DEZ001-090800- /O.EXB.KPHI.FF.A.0010.000000T0000Z-210909T0800Z/ /00000.0.ER.000000T0000Z.000000T0000Z.000000T0000Z.OO/ New Castle- Including the cities of Wilmington 604 PM EDT Wed Sep 8 2021 ...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT UNTIL 4 AM EDT THURSDAY... The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has expanded the * Flash Flood Watch to include a portion of northern Delaware... including the following area...New Castle. * Until 4 AM EDT Thursday. * Thunderstorms with heavy rain are forecast to move through the region this evening into the overnight period. Heavy rainfall of one to two inches may quickly lead to flooding of flood prone and other low-lying areas due to rapid runoff.
  7. As we lose a litte more sunlight everyday, along with mid September climo, it would suggest a downward trend regarding temps the next couple of weeks, however, the new normal September has us climbing higher and higher. Yuck ! From Mount Holly, this says it all....... < Strong southwest flow at 850mb will bring in much warmer air and daytime temps should have no problem rising into the mid to upper 80s through the midweek period.
  8. Thanks. FYI a rogue storm hit Middletown 30 minutes ago.
  9. That presentation by the 12Z 3K NAM looks strange for the Eastern areas, not to mention total rainfall is pathetic. Example, most of Delware gets nothing. except for an East to West stripe near Dover, DE. Areas in the FFW . although they will flood with much less rainfall, are still only in the area of .25 inches or under. General coverage is very eratic.
  10. Odds of wetter increased by Mount Holly. Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 105 PM EDT Sun Sep 5 2021 The next perturbation moves into the region tonight and appears to be positioned slightly south of the first one. Guidance has trended wetter with this vort max, as it appears to be interacting a little more favorably with the larger-scale trough moving into the Lakes Erie/Ontario region by 12z Monday versus what models have been depicting in previous runs. The GFS/CMC and most of the higher- resolution guidance are signaling for precipitation to break out in a band near/south of the I-76 corridor this evening into the overnight hours, with the CMC and some of the hi-res guidance indicating a quarter to half inch of rainfall possible in this axis. This is noticeably higher than recent guidance, and even the 00z ECMWF has become a little more bullish (though hardly "aggressive"). Given this distinct trend, did bump PoPs southeast of the I-95 corridor during the tonight period, but kept them fairly modest for now pending later guidance.
  11. And, create an almost perfect surfing scenario for various East Coast beaches after the well timed cold frontal passage. West winds and awesome incoming swells. https://magicseaweed.com/Wildwood-Surf-Report/392/
  12. Yep ! TORNADO WATCH OUTLINE UPDATE FOR WT 483 NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 1240 PM EDT WED SEP 1 2021 TORNADO WATCH 483 IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1000 PM EDT FOR THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS DEC001-003-005-020200- /O.NEW.KWNS.TO.A.0483.210901T1640Z-210902T0200Z/ DE . DELAWARE COUNTIES INCLUDED ARE KENT NEW CASTLE SUSSEX $$
  13. Watch that cluster of heavy storms North of Richmand as it moves NNE. Tornado watch is up a few miles to my West in Maryland. Hope to get active later this afternoon. Maybe the tornado watch will be expanded to cover the three counties in Delaware later.
  14. Not a drop of rain here. Northern Delaware getting good storms. Heard thunderstorms last 4 hours as they moved just North of my area.
  15. Robust WAR makes that depiction logical. Never thought heaviest rains would go South of us. Same issue as in winter with inland runners and Great Lake tracks. I am happy with one to two inches.
  16. Latest satellite shows rapid intensification.
  17. Not a great link, but it looks like a beast already. Massive cloud shield currently, and incredible /SST energy source in its path. https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=EXTENT&length=24

    Winter 2021-22

    Ah....................... the anti-concensus approach. Recently during the past five winters that thinking has worked out rather well most of the times.
  19. Tremendous flood potential for the Western Gulf states, not too mention the wind threat/ storm surge from an extreme Cat 4 or even 5 hurricance.
  20. Second storm in the series just went through, which intensified and has prompted a SSW for points South of me. BULLETIN - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Warning National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 714 PM EDT Mon Aug 23 2021 The National Weather Service in Mount Holly NJ has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Warning for... Southwestern New Castle County in northern Delaware... Northern Kent County in central Delaware... * Until 800 PM EDT. * At 714 PM EDT, a severe thunderstorm was located over Green Spring, or 8 miles south of Middletown, moving southeast at 25 mph. HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts. SOURCE...Radar indicated. IMPACT...Damage to roofs, siding, trees, and power lines is possible. * Locations impacted include... Dover, Middletown, Smyrna, Camden, Clayton, Cheswold, Woodside, Hartly, Rising Sun-Lebanon, Hazlettville, Delaney Corner, Dover Base Housing, Dover Speedway, Green Spring, Rising Sun, Townsend, Wyoming, Odessa, Kenton and Little Creek.
  21. Big time storm here. Moving SE from Elkton, MD. into Middletown and nearby areas.
  22. Any thoughts on September ? With a robost WAR reinforced with warm Atlantic SSTs it appears the usual heat/warmth of summer extends well into the Fall. Here is the recently issued Accu-weather Canadian Fall forecast which indicates warmer than normal over wide areas.
