Congrats! This has been happening lately where a storm misses me just to the south and hits you hard. I've been having bad luck with the strong storms missing me just to the south here in the extreme northern part of the County, but at least I got enough rain in recent days. 

Strongest wind I have ever experienced in a thunderstorm 

Numerous trees down 

Just as some wicked winds 

Down burst!!!

Mesoscale Discussion 1653
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0135 PM CDT Tue Jul 16 2024

Areas affected...Eastern Pennsylvania into Northern Maryland...New Jersey...and far Southern New York

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 161835Z - 162030Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...A severe thunderstorm watch may be needed later this afternoon for storms capable of 60-70 MPH wind gusts.

DISCUSSION...Visible satellite trends and short-term WoFS guidance suggests that thunderstorm activity should increase over Central and Eastern Pennsylvania this afternoon, bringing a threat primarily for damaging straight-line winds. These storms are expected to progress eastward into New Jersey and far southern New York.

Surface observations show a hot, dry boundary-layer in place over the highlight area, with surface temperatures in the upper 90s F to low 100s F and dewpoints in the upper 60s F to low 70s F. These conditions have resulted in MLLCL heights of around 2-3 km and low-level lapse rates that are dry adiabatic beneath the LCL. Additionally, the better deep-layer wind shear supportive of organized convection is confined to northern and central PA, suggesting that the primary threat is for damaging winds from disorganized to weakly-organized multi-cell clusters. Weather watch issuance may be needed later this afternoon.

No hyperbole, but likely 70+ dews into September. Just stand out there with open arms in the air..letting the dews take you away. 

So not looking forward to 4 months of fall starting in December

Big bust on the HRRR for storms modeled for last night in eastern PA and northern NJ.

Uadvertised storms..one mid afternoon and one overnight brought over a half inch in my area. Now about 1.5 inches for the last 5 days so it looks like we are in full cutting mode as the weeds esoecially crabgrass will now be non stop til late September 

Yup, very little talk or hype. Best storms of the season here locally

An area of strong thunderstorms w/heavy rain moving thru portions of NE NJ.

About a half inch with this storm overnight. It had loud thunder and decent lightning 

1.24 total here of much needed rain. It probably all came in about 20-30 minutes 

More convection to my west! I’ll probably be over 2 inches today

Upton has a 1% chance of rain out here…

You’re to far from the best trigger today. Expect nothing
