Here comes round #2, you should cash in on this one.
-
Actually, I am a little west of Lansdale proper, more like Towamencin. Anyway, picked up a quick .20" and a ten degree drop in temp, 69F. The lawn enjoyed that!
-
Looks like a downpour is on my doorstep. Hearing thunder. 79F/DP 67
-
Getting a nice downpour right now. It's been a bit dry lately, so the rain is welcome. 66F
-
After nearly two weeks, I finally got cable and internet back yesterday. I didn't miss TV at all, but it's difficult to work from home w/o internet. Another gorgeous day out there! Got down to 58F overnight and currently sitting at 70F.
-
A week+ with still no cable or internet -- sign me up for lame...lol! 74F/72DP
-
Ha! Maybe several cold ones. And the Wine & Spirit Shops are reopened, too!!

Glad your power is back, Paul. Got mine back around 6:30 last evening. But Comcast says cable and internet won’t be restored until Monday pm. Seriously, I’m not one to exaggerate. I can honestly say I’ve never personally seen such damage from a storm in my life. Not Sandy, not any of our ice storms or any other severe weather events. But again, it was very localized to just a certain area of my neighborhood. Two, three streets over, just your typical storm damage, if any. It’s almost like an F0 tornado came through, but I’m certain it was straight-line winds. Anyway... 86F/69DP. Not the most comfortable today to play with the chainsaw, but at least the AC is running!
-
Good luck! Hopefully more comfortable weather after today.
-
Still in the dark. Asplundh trucks are on the street behind me, they have their work cut out for them. Picked up .8" overnight.
-
No word from PECO when power will be restored, but I’m thinking several days. Two large trees are down on my property and the wires are under one of them. Fortunately no damage to the house. Amazing how localized events like this are—the other end of my neighborhood looks completely untouched.
-
Massive trees down in the yard. About as bad I’ve ever seen it here. Power out.
-
It is night outside! Wind is picking up and I can hear boomers in the distance.
-
12Z NAM looks out of touch as it doesn't have the line of storms in north-central PA. I think it's a day of looking at the radar, not the models.
-
92 days until the start of met fall. Just sayin'.
-
Got down to 42F overnight.
-
Picked up .8 in the bucket yesterday from two heavy downpours. Currently 68F/63DP.
-
First time this season I failed to get below 70F for an overnight low -- bottomed out at 70.7F.
-
AccuWx updated their forecast for the remainder of winter. No real surprises -- overall above average temps and precip for our region (and Jan remains a dumpster fire). But they do have Feb averaging a degree below normal with above average precip, so there is some hope. No mention of March. I suppose the forecast is for met winter only.
-
Latest ideas from Accuwx on the summer... Temps +2-3 above avg. While there may be more 90F+ days than last summer, there should be fewer 70F+ overnight mins. Precip below avg. Isolated serve with mod to high risk areas off to our south and west.
-
Early summer 2019 thoughts from AccuWx: Temps +1-2 above avg, near normal precip (which would actually feel dry considering this past year!)
-
Accuwx going with a warm, wet autumn for us with perhaps some tropical mischief. Sounds like the current pattern keeps rolling along.
-
July-Sept update... AccuWx going with temps and precip averaging near normal for our region. Bouts of severe wx still possible but the worst of it looks to be upstate NY and New England.
-
A quick follow up to the post above... Looks like their summer forecast is a continuation of the May-July period -- temps slightly above average with near normal precip. The big heat looks to stay out west over the Rockies. Above normal precip to our west/southwest (Ohio Valley region), this would lead to below average temps there. All in all, I could live with this. Not a fan of those summers where the AC runs weeks on end.
-
Bump... Just read Paul Pastelok's (AccuWx) thoughts on the May-July period. He's going with normal to slightly above normal temps. Cooling energy usage will be near average. Looks like near normal precipitation with below normal severe (but there will be some). Confidence is moderate. His June-Aug ideas will be out next week.
