Albedoman Posted Wednesday at 02:08 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:08 AM OMG what a utter failure. Severe thunderstorm warning issued for Lehigh county-- all I got was a light shower of less than .05. Talk about a fast disintegrating squall line. As soon as it hit the Blue Mts, it was done for. Totally unbelievable. It just does NOT want to rain anything harder than a light shower right now. It was just enough to make the pollen stick like concrete on the cars. Car washes are going to love this tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted Wednesday at 05:51 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:51 AM Worst allergy season since 2021 for me. And I have to be outdoors for hours at a time every day for the rest of the week. This sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car washes are going to love this tomorrow.I was in State College at the time of that Line going through last night. It was absolutely wild and impressive. At the time, I thought it had a chance to make it over the mountains all the way across the state as it still had good form even exiting the Harrisburg region. It just wasn’t meant to be for the Lehigh Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted Thursday at 12:57 AM Share Posted Thursday at 12:57 AM Haha, just saw a lightning bug! First time seeing one in April. Sighting was confirmed by multiple flashes, and my wife saw it as well. Now if we could only get some aurora borealis here! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhiEaglesfan712 Posted Thursday at 10:44 AM Author Share Posted Thursday at 10:44 AM PHL finishes April with a 56.6 avg temp, which is 2.6 degrees above the 1981-2010 average. PHL is on track for a 5th straight spring with well above average temperatures. For the 2024-25 season, PHL finished with 8.1 inches of snow, which is the 7th time in 9 years (dating back to the 2016-17 season) that PHL finished with below average snowfall. 2017-18 is the only season in that timespan that had slightly above average snowfall, while 2020-21 had near average snowfall.

Albedoman Posted Thursday at 10:50 AM Share Posted Thursday at 10:50 AM OK Mt Holly, what do you guys have to say about this 40 degree diurnal temp change today? Woke up at 38 degrees this morning with a projected high of nearly 80 degrees? Wow have not seen this range in temps in a 12 hour time frame in a very long time on a nice day. Definitely living back in the CA Mojave desert environment in eastern PA from my younger days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted Thursday at 05:12 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:12 PM CMC/GFS backed off to 1-2" over the next 7 days concentrating the precipitation north and northeast. A trend? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted Thursday at 06:18 PM Share Posted Thursday at 06:18 PM Below are the May area climate records since 1893 for Chester and SE Berks Counties.

LVblizzard Posted yesterday at 01:14 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:14 AM Nonstop rain starting Sat/Sun...then I leave to go storm chasing on the plains next Thursday and the pattern looks horrid for the first half of my trip. I will be hating the weather for a good week or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albedoman Posted yesterday at 02:22 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:22 AM Missed again tonight. Had to water-Its been a long time since I had to water a garden on the first day in May. The Blue Mts are absolutely destroying every cell that comes near them. Just incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted yesterday at 02:05 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:05 PM Today and tomorrow will be warm and humid with highs well into the 70’s with some spots touching 80 degrees if we see enough sunshine. Rain chances to increase tomorrow and will last through Tuesday. Not a wash out but some beneficial rains look to be on the way. We should see some drying by Wednesday, but some shower chances look to continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVblizzard Posted yesterday at 02:33 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:33 PM Wouldn’t be surprised to see tomorrow upgraded to a slight risk. Looks pretty decent for some severe wx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro had 10” a few days ago and what I’m seeing the percent starts at 90% then drops to 80% the drops to 60% then drops to 40% then drops to 30% then zippo. This has become tracking a winter storm like looking for a needle in a haystack. NWS last night had heavy rain here for 3 days see about that! Guess it depends where the front and storm get stuck. Think someone said a few pages back hope the rain stops by next Saturday! Can’t stop if it doesn’t start. also nice to see the Southeast Ridge Bermuda high in place like it’s mid summer damm lightning bugs brought it I’m sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its in eastern Berks near Kutztown. C'mon baby my air needs to cleaned out of pollen and the pollen cement dust needs to goo bye bye off my car.

Not severe but a nice t shower Need much more.I am just a few miles away from you and missed that first thundershower by literally 1/4 of a mile. I got a subsequent brief heavy shower a bit later for a quick but paltry 0.13”. Should be lots of opportunities to see good rain totals this weekend.
