Treckasec Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Doesn't feel as hot as some other days, but the dew point makes it feel pretty bad outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds~69 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Doesn't feel as hot as some other days, but the dew point makes it feel pretty bad outside. The thing that has helped out a bit is there's always some sort of breeze....all year. When it stops, it starts to bake. Radar looks horrible...

Treckasec Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Radar looks horrible... Don't like clusters of crap? Kinda surprised that it's been so underwhelming though. ML Cape 1000-2000-ish it seems, along with around 2000 surface based cape, but practically nothing on the radar except for some random downpour clusters it seems.

Tatamy Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I will take the drought back anytime. We are having an amazing deluge here in Bethlehem Township. I have had over 4" of rain today and most of it has fallen since 5:30pm tonight. It is continuing to pour. Mt. Holly has issued a Flash Flood Warning for the area.

Tatamy Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Those pictures are located at a gas station that is 3 minutes from my house. I was going to go down there and check it out as it is known as a flood zone but now I will not have to. Rain total today is up to 5". All but 0.25" has fallen since about 5:30 tonight. We are getting the grand finale with a lot of CTG lightning strikes right now. For a while I was sending rainfall reports to Mt. Holly every 30 minutes when I rec'd an additional inch.

stemwinder Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Some of that got down to this area last night. .57" on my deck. A thin line of precip per doppler radar from the Allentown area. No thunder, as I recall. God, it's humid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds~69 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Got a decent one on top of me currently....good winds / steady rain. No lightning or thunder yet. Hope this cools things off a bit. Going to be short-lived though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treckasec Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Pretty ominous skies outside... EDIT: Grr, can't catch a break...Radar seems to direct the worst of the storm away from me and just edge us with some weaker precip. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treckasec Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Supposed to be much nicer today. Really needed a break from the heat and humidity. Was outside for like 10 minutes yesterday and came inside sweating profusely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmorninglight Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Feels better out there for sure. Tennis match yesterday was rough. Had a headache for a good 2 hours after that one. Looks like unsettled weather returns tomorrow. Since this is a banter thread as well, I thought I'd suggest that the NWS change their images for days that have about a 20% chance of rain from all clouds and rain to sun mixed with rain. It is weird but in tourist towns like ours people seem to only look at the image and decide to cancel plans. I run an outdoor activity outfit (kayaking and SUPs) and it kills our business. Thanks.

KamuSnow Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Received 0.98" of rain overnight - somewhat pleasantly surprised since it had seemed things were trending a little drier yesterday. 5.08" for June so far. Light rain here now and 64F. Update - adding in 0.03" additional for Thursday morning brings June to 5.11". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBasile Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 0.58" today. 4.81" on the month. Talk about a break from the heat. It's currently 64F. That forecast high of 77F may be a bit....high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Had a nice thundershower move through here around 2 am - lots of lightning, woke me up with a couple of nearby strikes. Probably the most active storm of the season here to date as far as lightning goes. Also received 0.65" of rain overnight, bringing the total for June to 5.76". Could be an interesting weekend with the remnants of Bill moving through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an interesting weekend with the remnants of Bill moving through. You got lucky w/the overnight thunderstorm...not much here. As far as Bill, not only may it mess up Father's Day....also, it may screw up the garden w/torrential downpours at time. (The past several rain events have been a nice steady rain...no downpours) Either way it's going to be humid w/high DP's. 72.1F / DP 69.6F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
