Bubbler86 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 A line of storms is forming to my west and is moving West by South in unison as if a front of some kind was triggering them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You look at this map and you might say "eh...what's so great about that?" (particularly for our area) 1. Our forecast was for 1-3". I had 16". That's a pretty colossal bust in a good way, which is rare. 2. Sustained winds even in our area were stronger than ANY storm that I've experienced, including the Superstorm. Like Nut said, we all have elements that are important to us. For some, it's all about the final total. I completely get that. For me, I like to see blinding snow being whipped sideways by 40+ mph winds. This storm had that. We had a drift in our driveway that exceeded 9' in depth.

Bubbler86 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Euro on a totally different planet for this weekend. Warm and no rain for anyone in PA. No rain for anyone until Central VA actually. Suppressed by a blocking High. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paweather Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 It's another Delaware Valley special today.....and something even worse @Itstrainingtime STOP the O's from beating the Phils please.

Itstrainingtime Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 I'm just glad that Miller B came when I was 13 years old - I was more than happy with 16" of wind-driven snow. I wasn't old enough to be super pissed that parts of New England got like 4', LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 1/4" through most of your area. Not enough to help the river though. Here is 48 hour estimated rainfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 My 80% of rain yesterday resulted in a sunny day. My 70% chance today gave me partly sunny skies. Can’t wait for the 20% day when it pours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paweather5 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I don’t ever remember being under three flash flood watches in one week and not one drop. If this was winter a lot of people would be upset haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 It looks more and more like we aren’t getting any precipitation until at least Sunday and that might be going away. At least it’s in the 80s finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro shows little to no Precip for most of PA for the next 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
