I was in Columbia heading to Conestoga and the hail was significant - I was driving so no good measurements but the car was getting torpedoed. Best hail display I've seen in some time. "T'ed up in Columbia" The frozen reports are flying in fast and furious today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 The cell that produced hail here at work and at home is going nuts SW of Lancaster city right now. That area is getting smoked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temp dropped down to 50 at the height of the storm but has rebounded to 55 now. Not much if any wind so the hail did not drift. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only takes about a +6 departure to set an all time hottest April, right? I’m about ready to lock that one in with what’s coming later next week, unless we get an actual below normal stretch later in the month. Only fly in the ointment here is that in these dry stretches, overnight lows might cool off pretty well.

We are currently running 5.5 AN with some warm days on tap but then some normal to below normal-ish type days before the warmup. I'm banking on that SER really setting up shop for a prolonged period, but we shall see. I had the same thought about the clear skies creating some cool nights to mitigate things. But if I were a betting man, I think right now I'd throw some shekels on the over, dangerous as that may be this early in the game. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 We have picked up 0.67" of rain since late yesterday afternoon. We are still running over an inch below normal for April and almost 5" below for the year. We have a good chance at many spots across the area seeing at least an inch of rain by the end of the upcoming weekend. Temperatures for the next 10 days look to remain well below normal for late April and early May. Records for today: High 94 (1915) / Low 26 (1926) / Rain 1.92" (1913) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a T here for rain. May rain a decent amount every day for a while starting Friday (more than a T.) The Nam and GFS are true soakers Sat night and all day Sunday and have rain chances into next week as the ULL pivots over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GFS and NAM that you describe seem to go directly against what CTP is thinking - they have me at Partly Sunny and warm on Sunday with a chance of showers after 3pm.

I do not see any model that has it warm on Sunday but maybe they are forecasting beyond the modelogy I am doing right now. Ha. The Euro is a Sunday rain out as well. I had not checked that. Mid 50's for highs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I will stake an opinion on...if it rains all day Sunday (or at least a lot of a rain and a full day thick cloud deck) I would tend more thinking temps stay in the 50's for a lot of us.
