Itstrainingtime Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Raining again. This time it's measurable- .02" so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomixwx Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Calling it now: Idalia is Michael 2.0. The Gulf is just too goddamned warm for it not to overcome any minor shear there may be to rip the top off.

Mount Joy Snowman Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Man, was I stunned to see .63" in the gauge this morning. I wasn't tuned in with the forecasts this weekend and had no idea we were supposed to get anything. Very pleased. Seems like we may be in for another midnight surprise on Tuesday night. Anyone else think we may need to start checking the record books with regards to this heat moving over the region for next week? September looking very likely to start very much on the warm side, after what should be almost an exactly normal August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Cloudy and still a bit humid today with rain chances increasing from south to north late tonight through Tuesday night. Models are bit all over the place on amounts but a general 0.25" to 0.75" look likely. The weather looks great from Wednesday PM through next weekend. Chilly temps toward the end of the week but warming by the end of the weekend. Records for today: High 98 (1973) Low 38 (1982) - of note this was the earliest sub-40 degree reading in Chester County since records began in 1888.

Wife and I were outside enjoying said pleasant day when the skies kept getting darker and darker until it started to rain. I was shocked honestly.

I did a double take this morning when I saw the gauge. "Screwed" was probably the wrong word ha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 FV3 craziness. Decides to take its focus off the actual hurricane for what it believes will be a weak trough/low on the west coast of Florida. One panel and then back again. FWIW, no pone who considers themselves a Florida west coast veteran will take their eye off the storm until it is north of their latitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomixwx Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Tampa/St. Pete is going to be spared the worst, but the super Saturn Moon is going to swell the bay no matter where the storm landfalls (I would suspect Mexico Beach like Michael). The further left it goes, the stronger it becomes as it will likely crash on shore while fattening up. This is a better case than a rightward jog no matter how strong it may or may not be.

I don't expect temps to start getting into around 70 highs until mid October.

I'm sure those nerds at Stanford can find some way to harness the energy of the sun to cool things down in Tallahassee.

Send your friends here in the east (Pa. in particular) some heat, some after September 1st will be in winter mode already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
