Lol, just rain up here brotha. Not sure why the warning.

 

There was a bit of a rotation couplet (+45-50kt outboundvelocity and some weak inbound velocity) on radar that prompted the warning from CTP which skirted the north side of IPT as it moved NW to SE. Parameters are generally not supportive for anything other than a very weak and brief spin up with one of these storms this evening, and there wasn't any noteworthy reports from that cell on CTP's Facebook.

Hi Guys.  I've temporarily come out of summer hibernation to talk about the upcoming potential excessive precip event from Bill.  Looks like at least 2"+ on the latest NAM.  Anyone care to comment?

 

Also, how much precip have you seen total around your area in the past 6 weeks?  I've had over 4".  It's definitely been wet around here of late, with more on the way the next few days.

 

BTW, I'm definitely NOT 'lovin the 70's dewpoints that have been common over the past few weeks....YUCK!  Can we just fast forward to September please?

Would not surprise me one bit if the models are underpredicting precip for this weekend across southern pa/md/etc and are causing the 1-2" forecasts that some are making based on these models to not be high enough. 

 

I just think there is a considerable amount of moisture coming north and east with "Bill" and approaching the frontal boundary and local terrain that I would not be surprised to see several 3+" reports over a 24 hour period Saturday into Sunday. 

 

From 7am April 21 to 7am May 16 (25 days) I recorded .66" of precip

From 7am May 17 to 7am June 19 (34 days) I recorded 9.74" of precip

 

(just noticed CTP issued a flood watch for FRANKLIN-PERRY-DAUPHIN-SCHUYLKILL-LEBANON-CUMBERLAND-ADAMS-YORK- LANCASTER)

I thought this was always just a rain event?

There's been some discussion about some severe wind / isolated tornado potential with the event.  The NAM is printing out it's silly instability profiles again for the Mason-Dixon counties and points south.  Blue box in effect through 11:00pm.
