Big cooldown coming next week, most models have mountain snow and the occasional run has it down to Denver. Snow or not, 40s and 50s will feel very nice after this stretch of unseasonably warm weather.

I’m just looking forward to the very early and late season snowstorms. The 6z fantasy range GFS has a few inches of snow in 2 weeks…probably won’t happen but I love knowing it’s not totally far fetched!

Don’t sleep on the Union. 12 game unbeaten streak since the World Cup. They’ve gone from last place to solidly in a playoff spot.

Moved to Denver from PA recently, being on the wrong side of a precip cutoff is a feeling I unfortunately know all too well. Pretty massive bust…even just 24 hours ago some of the hi-res models brought an inch of rain to the Denver metro.

That line coming through Lancaster looks nasty. Wouldn’t be surprised if it leaves a trail of wind damage and even a tornado or two.

Decent storm ongoing right now. I was surprised to hear thunder because I checked the radar an hour ago and it looked like the storms to the west were petering out. Apparently not.

Total screwjob for most of SE PA today. One line missed to the north and another line missed to the south. Sigh…

Insane CG barrage right now just west of Allentown. Best lightning I’ve seen all year.

Decent light show to the north and south this evening. Just wish it would have hit the Lehigh Valley instead of going around us.

I will definitely be doing some chasing out there! It’s actually a big part of why I’m moving, so I can be a short drive from the plains of eastern CO. They get some nasty supercells out there and a decent amount of tornadoes.

Yes. I worked hard to organically build a community of 14k followers. I’m not giving that up.

Here comes the humidity. It was comfortable here 2 hours ago…not so much now. Hopefully we get some rain later to cool us down. This will be my last full week in the Lehigh Valley for awhile - possibly ever? I’m moving to Denver in a week and a half because it’s somewhere I’ve always wanted to live and I’m now in a position to give it a try. It gets hot out there sometimes but it’s a dry heat. “Humid” there is a DP of 60. It’s going to be quite the adjustment but I’m looking forward to living in a place with such volatile weather.

That cell over Allentown tried to go into tornado making mode. I was getting gas at Costco and I noticed some pretty intense rotation, despite radar not really showing it. Didn’t see any funnels but the motion in the clouds was pretty crazy.

There’s been near constant thunder here for over 3 hours. Our only break was an hour ago when the first storm left and the second one hadn’t formed yet.

Yeah this is a tough area to chase in. Might not matter though…that little supercell is making a beeline directly towards me. Hearing lots of distant thunder. If it does try to tornado it’ll happen very close to my house, likely just south.
