here we go again. Chester county into Philly metro getting more  heavy rain right now at 11:20 pm  Unbelievable. that same area has received more rain in the last two weeks than the LV has received in over three months. The sinking air  lid is over the LV even at night now. The line of t-storms west of Harrisburg is also fizzling out.  The forecast has literally stated that the LV was to expect by the end of the weekend 2-3 in of rain. I have had less than .25 of precip in this same time period.  Localized t- storms do not help in a long term drought situation.- it just makes it more frustrating.

Heavy duty downpour...

I apparently got under some of that because I picked up a couple more hundreds just before midnight (total 0.03 for yesterday) but then had received another 0.47" just after midnight! :o  I had seen some of it bubbling up before I went to bed but since I got missed by almost all of the stuff yesterday, I figured that would be a miss too.  But nope.

AND there looks like things have already fired up out west.

Currently 68 with dp 68.

Just to my north probably Albedo getting slammed. Looks like it's late today early tonight or bust for me. Tomorrow has been reduced to light amounts .25" and Wednesday is now forecast to be dry. Seven days of showers shrunk down into one little window left.

less than .10 in the gauge overnight. Rumbles of thunder- nothing more. Not a good day to start off for producing rain-  no sunshine and cloudy from this early mornings showers. Have got to get the sun out out like in VA in the last hour satellite image below.  Yesterday, the debris clouds from surrounding t- storms in south eastern PA and in the Poconos absolutely killed any chance of training t- storms in the LV.  This morning  is looking the same as yesterday afternoon. Very localized t- storms popping up where the sun is trying to peek out on the current radar.

wow, I hear the thunder as the the skies are beginning to darken in the southwest just as as the debris clouds were beginning to thin out here - just maybe a quick downpour as the radar is starting to light up in eastern Berks County. If this current scenario is any indication this morning, those areas where the sun gets out in the afternoon - big time  training t- storms and severe potential will be popping.
