They are aware as they should every year. My friend lives in Cape Coral and Sanibel ground zero from Ian last year. Thank goodness it is only one run but definitely need to keep tabs with 92-97 water temps it is a powder keg. The only thing the models do for me right now is tell me that the conditions for tropical cyclone development is improving, Saharan Dust is currently diminishing, water temps are hot, but all of the models are showing different solutions which will be evident run to run especially 200+ hours out.

So, looks like Hilary has already peaked at 939 mb but that was an estimate from satellite imagery. Now with that said Hilary will not intensify any further moving NW into dry air, cooler waters, and eventual shear. It will just maintain then slowly start weakening over the next 24-36 hours.

Looking at the water vapor map I would say peak intensity is over the next 24-36 hours then Hilary should move into an awful lot of dry air to the north as it moves in that direction unless it gets pulled up into the moisture evenelope.

Yea fire season has been suppressed north way north!

Ratings at it's best1! However tropical storm is not out of the question with 8-12" of rain now that is not ratings but a possibility, I am sure that would be interesting for them out there in all of southern California.

Had 1.10" this morning between 3:30 and 4:00 am no lightning just very heavy rain I mean we were hammered by flooding rains. I am guessing that was the front but according to all weather outlets last night all rain was to come to an end at midnight last night. This front is unlike the others it's having a hard time clearing the coast. Looks like the Bermuda High is fighting back for the first time this summer. Now with that said above there seems to be some subtle changes that may become major changes allowing for a big uptick in tropical activity in the Atlantic we shall monitor the East and Gulf Coasts. I guess you have to include the West Coast too. Seems a Pacific Hurricane wants to pay a visit to Southern California next week that would be something. Models say stay tuned.

Umm check out the 18z GFS run lol tropics city!

Think that must be right with the front itself winds here in Media just shifted due to frontal passage.

Zippo here Mostly Cloudy 86 Humidity 54% dewpoint 73 Thunderheads Well to the East shows the stuff in New Jersey moving NE looks weak though.

The Severe Thunderstorm watch is like a Winter Storm Watch Philly South and East in the Winter! I doubt we see much definitely south and east stuff Delaware and South Jersey. I am not expecting much here in Media, Delaware County.

A weather outlet had 76 degree dewpoints at the airport at 11 pm. I mean they were off by 10 degrees on the dewpoint. I was sitting at 61 dewpoint at 10:30 pm. That's like not even close.

Local News had dewpoints in the 72-76 range for tonight most of the area where is that at???

I think that would be a warm front pushing NNE the main low is leaving Ohio and moving into Western PA.

There appears to even be a weak low now off the west coast pf Florida not far off of Sarasota too much shear from the Northeast at the moment.

Looks like a mesoscale low leaving Altoona moving ESE very quickly towards Harrisburg definitely severe weather with that pretty good-looking hook.

The storm south of Pittsburgh looks rough and the one moving quickly towards Altoona, PA

This is incredible how many confirmed tornadoes have we had in the northern Mid Atlantic VA, MD, PA, NJ, DE. This has been a repeating theme all the way back to April.

Latest HRRR model has a line coming through between 11 PM and 1 AM on the west side of the Delaware River moving east southeast.

Anyone have a total of confirmed tornadoes for this year so far? I mean we had 4 confirmed tornadoes just last week. When I was younger, we were lucky to see a tornado like once every 5 years in the 80's. The number of confirmed tornadoes for Pennsylvania in our area is WAY up!

Rain done in Media picked up 0.80" the entire time wind was calm no lightning or thunder except one rumble of thunder to the east with what became the tornado warned storm in Burlington and Ocean County as it pulled away. Currently cloudy 73 dew point 68 pressure 29.79 steady. Skies brightening and as I look at the water vapor map clearing, and dry air poised to sweep in from the northwest. However, with a dewpoint sitting at 68 most likely there will be a quick line of thunderstorms pop up around 4:30 just to the west of the Delaware River before the drier air rolls in after 5:30 pm and moves east bound.

Here is a question then? Tropical Cyclones are a means to evacuate the building up of heat along and just north of the Equator what will happen in the northern hemisphere come the later fall and winter months with all the record trapped heat air and water? I am going to assume very wild weather events on the horizon October 2023-March 2024.

NWS is out that way seeing if it was a tornado. Now Media where I am is directly east of Glen Mills and I will tell you I heard what sounded like a jet plane (probably the low-level jet passing above my head) as 60-70 mph winds were ripping through for about 5-8 minutes could have been a remnant of a tornado yesterday.

It just came through Media Delaware County winds have just shifted to the NW last 5 minutes sun is out now. I would say the cold front is right on the beaches of the Delaware River heading east into New Jersey fairly rapidly too. The front should clear the beaches along the Jersey Shore by 10 am if not sooner.

Still moderate rain and lightning. It now has been raining and lightning since 6:35 pm. We have a 24-hour total of rain here at 2.50" 67 degrees currently. Our next two storms are in the pipeline leaving Montanna into the Dakotas right now and another for the weekend leaving Puget Sound. I don't remember an active patter like this in August. The sky today was hazed up a bit not sure if it was an overabundance of water vapor or Candian Smoke?

Over up here 60-70 mph winds and dime size hail picked up 1.05" some minor damage.
