So when's this rain supposed to start? 1-2" that wunderground is calling for seems a little far-fetched imho...

Caught those crazy roiling clouds on camera right before the gust front went through. That was wild.

I've been outside working in this heat for two weeks, and today it finally broke 90°F. However the strangest thing is that I think I've become acclimatized to it! Sure, you still sweat a lot, but I don't feel nearly as wiped out right now as I did after last Wednesday. Then again, my job isn't particularly strenuous and my company looks out for us by providing plenty of breaks, water, and shade to escape to. Sure feel sorry for the guys working on our apartment complex's roofs this week though... Looking forward to a 3-day weekend kicked off by our coastal!

That was a fascinating storm to watch develop last evening! Got down to 68°F by ~9pm and has stayed there pretty much all night. Hoping today won't be as oppressive--working outside in that heat is not fun for long imho.

COD Meteorology has the capability to download animated gifs, but it runs in flash, which is apparently being discontinued at the end of this year in Chrome. I'm hoping they update before this happens.

That's so cool. I love catching stuff like this on radar.

Humidity and temps creeping back up here. Was 82 and 60% an hour ago, now up to 83 and 63%... Whole heck of a lot of activity to our SW, I wonder if it'll make it here by this evening.

Just had a cell "erupt" over us, for lack of a better term. A handful of pea-sized hail, to boot. So much water, it's like somebody turned on a faucet!

Got absolutely dumped on about an hour ago. Also, I think our storms might have taken out several cell towers because my signal was all over the place when I went out earlier...

Lost power from round two last night until about 1:30am. Was all set to finally have to drag out the genny this morning but glad I didn't have to. PECO's original estimated restoration time for us was 11pm tonight! Those guys are awesome.

Downpoured for a few minutes and only heard distant rumbles. Probably didn't need to put the car in and take down all the hanging plants, but you never know. Wonder what the rest of the afternoon is going to look like--it's still pretty juicy out there.

saw a small bit of purple in the returns near Pottstown, and saw there was an 83mph gust in Reading, PA.

Power was out for almost 12 hours, making it the longest outage since the summer of 2016. I was all set to break out the genny this morning since we have a fridge and freezer full of apocalypse food.

Is it unusual to be consistently hitting the low 40's / upper 30's overnight this late into April? I was wondering if the vastly reduced amount of chemtrails er, airliner emissions might be having any effect on diurnal heating and dissipation.

Not liking the look of that line just about to cross the Susky. Large rotation indicated just about to cross the MD line, headed NE...

I think if you look really close, you can spot the trail of hail left on the ground after this cell blew through WV in the infrared imagery. Neat!

Me: checks models for the first time in days GFS: 18" of snow on the 12th Me: *blows raspberry noise* Ok back to not checking the models again until November

Long flash and rumble just a few minutes ago. Wow.

Anybody got any bets on thunder and lightning tonight? I'm seeing some, but not much, out west. HRRR and NAM show a strong but skinny line moving through around midnight. Thoughts?

Maybe I'm looking at it wrong, but I see zero indication of any rotation in the relative storm velocity. It actually looks like it glitched out for a few frames, I'm wondering if that automatically triggered the warning? I mean, look at it: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=DIX-N0S-1-48 It's just wacky

33° F and pouring. What a winter. I mean, I consider myself a foul weather aficionado, but this is pretty sad for what should be the heart of our climo winter. I am seeing patches of rain/snow mix on the radar but so far nothing but rain here.

I wouldn't mind a gander at that myself. Care to share? I can request on Researchgate if that helps (and if it's posted there .

I sure hope you're right. We hit 60 here yesterday afternoon according to my unofficial back-yard thermometer, which is actually reading 64 right now...

Spent the morning clearing brush from the horse trail behind my parents' house with a tractor and chainsaw. Don't know about you guys, but I am absolutely loving this cold and grey weather. Could be snowier, but I'll take this over any summer day, period.

Looking forward to wxsim saying 4-6 feet of snow next weekend.
