What?? Noooo! Maybe it'll flip back.
-
Looks like it on GOES-East. That's fine, it can stay up there this time thankyouverymuch.
-
Ok, this is weird. Here's my radar at the moment: and here's my view to the west: I think there's so much wind behind this that it blew all of the precip out in front. It got crazy gusty here, and then we had some brief rain spattering on the front of the house, and now it's calmer and sunny. Pretty wild. FWIW, none of this even registered in the rain gauge.
-
Crazy windy here on the back side. Looks like we might get a 2-second downpour as well.
-
Must be something local to you:
-
Reading redirect in full effect here: Ah well, I'll take my measly .12" from this morning and hope for more next time.
-
It did here, and temp shot up from 61 to 70 in les than an hour. Big anvil-shaped clouds to my west, we'll see if anything comes directly my way. But you guys further east should keep an eye on the radar--it looks like all of these discrete cells might want to link up after the roll through here.
-
Looking forward to maybe a little bit more rain tomorrow. My garden really enjoyed yesterday. In other news, it's only 8 days now until the days start getting shorter again!
-
Ok ended up not bad, 1.41". That's a start.
-
Got home from work early today. I'm in my downstairs office and just sneezed my head off. My wife heard it upstairs and this conversation ensued: We've only got .15" so far today. I'm not really superstitious, but come on. I bought a new snowblower and it didn't snow. I bought a new rain barrel and it didn't rain for a month. What gives?
-
Woo Hoo! .01" from the first round. Lessgooooooo
-
Huh. Some slightly angry sky just to my NW. Like, regular-angry, not perpetual-sunset-on-Dune angry.

Learned a while back from this forum to use my imgur account and post the direct link here. It's never been easier: Shift-Windowskey-S (or whatever the Mac equivalent is) to capture the snapshot, then use Ctrl-V to paste it into your open imgur page, then copy the "Direct" link and paste it here.
-
View out front looks like we're on a more lush version of Tatooine. ("Second sun is a reflection from the window in front of my security camera.) I've only ever seen that far tree line obscured in such a way due to fog though.
-
Holy cow. My wife opened the patio door for two seconds and now the house smells like a campfire. That's just insane.
-
.48"! Also, my neighbor is already up on a ladder inspecting his roof. Apparently there was a bad hail storm here in 2014, so if they didn't get theirs fixed back then, then I could see why they'd be concerned. However, we're still hearing thunder here and it's waaaay too soon to be getting up on a ladder, lol.
-
Finally, a good, soaking rain here. Up to .37" now. Just a little bit more pea-sized hail as well.
-
Saw that. Reading proper getting nailed right now. Hope it clears out some of that smoky haze, it was really bad here today.
-
.25" hail confirmed, and .12" in the bucket. Feisty little storm! But wait, there's more! lol another one right behind it.
-
I think I might be next... Ooh, might be the first, real shot for enjoying a beverage on a lawn chair in the garage of the season!
-
Checking out the reports on Radarscope, there's one for blowing dust/sand. Berks haboob confirmed?
-
That one's juuust going to miss me to the east. Hope you get something out of it at least!
-
Weird, hazy sky right now. Cool and breezy. There doesn't look like a lost of smoke on the smoke map (https://fire.airnow.gov/#) but GOES-East paints a different picture (https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=continental-conus-truecolor-48-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined).
-
Yup, got .12". This, combined with yesterday's .06" should help green up things a little bit around here. And, there's finally rainwater in my rain barrel that I installed a month ago. Not much, but some.
-
Big pop-up heading my way. It woke me up with a huge crash of thunder. I was in bed, trying to sleep off a massive sinus headache... ugh.
