  1. I only started hearing them around here about 5 or 6 years ago. Don't know much about their migration habits, maybe I'll look it up!
  2. I always thought of them as an August critter, maybe showing up the last week of July? Beautiful day outside!!!
  3. Got 0.62" last evening from what I'll call the main event, didn't really get any measurable earlier, a few drops here and there. Much more pleasant today, thank you! Currently 75F, dp 67.
  4. Getting dumped on nicely here, with decent thunder and lightning. 75F currently with a dewpoint of 70. Nice...
  5. Some thin greens moving in here. Nothing dramatic, but it is raining lightly and slowly cooling down.
  6. Lol, it sure does. Tomorrow looks like a nice change.
  7. Hammock weather! 88F here with DP at 78.
  8. It's like a wall of hot dogs' breath, minus the aroma (depending on the dog). It's also steamy glasses weather, I get outside and put on reading glasses to do stuff on the phone, and because they've been at 71° they fog right up.
  9. Funny I saw the first Spotted Lanternfly nymph here yesterday. Last year was the first year I'd seen them in numbers, and this year at first I thought they might be late due to some spring cool spells. Lately I'd started to think maybe they'd take the year off, or something. Apparently not. They love the Walnut trees here.
  10. 91F here at the moment, with the DP at 71, relatively "comfortable" compared with recent days.
  11. 89F here, DP 73, made it to a high of 90 earlier.
  12. Nice work, and thanks for doing this! Interesting to see it graphically (haha). I think August might show a similar trend, maybe a lot of months would, but it's most noticeable obviously in warmer temperatures. I've experienced more issues with fungus, etc. (with the lawn and plant life) here over the last few years and have wondered if there's a connection. Seems possible.
  13. Not sure if anyone is having dry problems, it's just been real feast or famine since last Friday. Lots of action, but not for everyone. Too much in some spots, and longing radar watching from others, lol. Here we've had 0.25" since last Friday, but 3.41" total for July, so it's not dry here anyway. About the temperatures, it would be nice to have historical dewpoint data, I'm sure these days we're above normal dewpoint-wise, and that's become pretty typical for July and August.
  14. Getting a neighborhood shower here, most rain since last Thursday night (about 0.10"). Not much but nice nonetheless! High here was 91F today, and it was a touch less humid which was slightly noticeable. Eta - wound up with 0.21" of rain.
  15. Yeah, pretty regularly I have to delete some files too, I sort by size to get the largest ones first, but all the low hanging fruit is gone. Mostly now I delete radar snapshots. 78F here, dp 74, pretty much full sun, and been that way. I did some stuff outside from 8:30 to 9 and had to change my shirt already.
  16. 88F here, dp 78, which I believe is the highest dp here so far this summer. Sitting in the shade sweating up a storm, lol.
  17. Yeah, we had radar reds and thunder west, south and east, and wound up with a driveway wetter with dryness under the trees. Did cool things off a bit but dewpoint is still 74.
  18. I'm getting some rain here, enough to wet the ground so far, and it looks like you should get some too, even if not a downpour.
  19. Yes, that outflow boundary made it all the way down here, and knocked a couple of degrees of the temp and dewpoint. Meanwhile that complex that was over Philly backbuilt down into eastern Delco, there's a line coming from the west, and it looks like some action popping up in Delaware. A squeeze play for here if things don't dissipate. Hearing rumbles off to the west and a couple to the east. Currently 84F, dp 74.
  20. Good luck to the people getting pounded this afternoon, doesn't sound good at all.
  21. Nothing here today, been watching storms to the west roll up and around north of here, or dissipate, another one popped up about 5 miles to the NE of here and off it went. Heard some thunder, and it clouded up for a bit, but that's about it. Not a drop here really since Thursday night. High today was 93F, after a low of 74, with the DP ranging between 76 and 77. Currently 87. Eta - oh yeah, did get about 0.05" Friday afternoon.
  22. That's funny! We first started hearing them in the woods about 5 years ago (in the afternoon), and at first we thought they were birds calling back and forth, but we'd never see them. So we looked up tree frogs, and that's what we found that matched the sound, gray tree frogs.
  23. We've had a few cicadas for the last week or so, nothing over the top. Lightning bugs seemed to have peaked, plus that wind late Thursday probably did a number on them. We've got the tree frogs here too, and the other night my wife found a "mini-frog" on the storm door - it was about 5/8" long. No, it wasn't a cricket, although at first glance it looked like one, size-wise. First time for that!
  24. Not a bad day out. 76F here, dp 67, partly cloudy. I mean it's not low humidity, but along with the temperature it's a nice break.
