Up to 3.10" in East Nantmeal on the VP2 station and 3.03" on the Tempest so nice agreement on the automated stations - that said suspect more than that in the manual rain gauge in NW Chesco. Down here at the shore we had some sun and much warmer with temps in the low 80's while East Nantmeal stayed in the chilly 60's all day
