  1. Got a hoodie and winter hat on and half a tank of gas. I’ll be fine.
  2. Oh baby they are out again! Bright red and green pillars overhead! Wow!
  3. Just a word of advice for you guys. Don’t go to a golf course to view the northern lights. I did and I went to leave and now I can’t leave because they’ve locked the gate. I didn’t know they had a gate. So now I think I’m stuck here till the morning.
  4. Northern horizon starting to glow green now. Pretty dull to the naked eye but very vivid with the phone camera.
  5. Yep still visible with the naked eye. Just barely. Really hope this ramps up again at some point.
  6. WOW!!! Naked eye aurora visible in Allentown! Didn’t even have to leave my driveway!
  7. Looks like some late nights ahead. Watching chaser streams tonight then chasing the aurora tomorrow and Friday nights. Bring it on!
  8. Another big chance for aurora tomorrow night. Looks like clear skies for all of us too. Assuming the predicted solar conditions hold I’ll be heading to the hills of northwestern Lehigh County to try to view them.
  9. Our significant, newsworthy events are far less severe than in other areas. We’re getting 20 inches of snow? Try 6 feet in a week in the mountains out west or the lake effect snow belts. A hurricane is traveling up the east coast? Probably a cat 1 at best here after devastating the southeast. Severe weather outbreak likely? Lots of minor wind damage and maybe a tornado or two, meanwhile Alabama and Oklahoma are dealing with EF3+ tornadoes.
  10. I'm already over fall. The worst season for northeast weenies unless we get a strong tropical system affecting us. Storm season passed a month ago and snow likely won't get here for another 2 months. We're just stuck in a boring cycle of sun and rain without anything particularly exciting.
  11. Well, we all complained about how dry it was just a week ago. We just didn’t think the streak would break by not being able to see the sun for an entire week.
  12. That’s Connor Croff, he’s a very experienced storm chaser. I see him streaming all the time during tornado season in the plains. Not sure how much experience he has with hurricanes.
  13. Clear skies for days and suddenly we get clouds on a night when the aurora is visible. Unreal how that always seems to happen.
  14. Nice to get some rain today as it looks like we’ll be dry for at least the next week and a half.
  15. My match next weekend is women’s tennis but I also get assigned to lots of men’s matches.
  16. I ref NCAA tennis and next Saturday is my first match of the season, I bet it rains just because that’s how it usually goes. Dry for weeks and suddenly rain when I need to be outside.
  17. I saw a single distant lightning flash from those frontal showers earlier. Might be the last lightning I see for quite awhile.
  18. Slight risk N&W of I-95 tomorrow. Could be one of our last chances for severe storms this year.
  19. Drove through a heavy downpour on my way home from a concert in Camden. There were even a couple of lightning flashes.
  20. So much for that slight risk today. Nothing severe anywhere near Philly. I saw some distant lightning in Allentown from that line that passed to the north but that’s about it.
  21. 12z GFS doesn’t get dews above 60 at all for the entirety of the run past Labor Day.
  22. So are we keeping this thread going till 9/1 and then switching to the fall thread? Very hot and muggy out today. Hoping this is the last of this type of weather this year. Short range models like a complex of storms somewhere in eastern PA this evening but they disagree on whether it’s in the Poconos, Lehigh Valley, or Philly area.
