If you look at the wind profile on the skew t log P it's Indicative to rain falling directly from under the core. Your getting everything dumped right on top of you.

That said you have no skew t for our area to look at. Lol Pittsburgh Pittsburgh and Baltimore had it today.

That was fun rain. Got caught in on 12th St in Lemoyne.

One again I realize this is Baltimore at noon ,but Im pretty sure that the circled inversions kinking of the cape filed towards the lower levels is the culprit for the lack of bite at the ground. Pitt also had two inversions around the same levels.

Somehow that entire complex completely missed me - just .14" for the day.

I'm not sure what's funnier , people posting a skew T without saying a single word to try to explain anything and getting trophies from guys that have 0 clue what there looking at or a guy that has very little understanding with the balls to try his best at something we all wish we could do. I've already made my decision on that question. Lol

The only thing I really expected today or tonight was a great lightning show. Whether I'm watching it from a distance sliding south of me or it's stroking my back yard, I still have high hopes of that later tonight. It's good to see you got more beneficial rain  for your yard today.

Looks like I'm going to be working overtime tonight to bring this one home fellows.

I didn't find anything very substantial in terms of damage, but that was another awesome classic right turner that @Jns2183 spotted yesterday. I can't say I'v ever seen a cell do anything like that in terms of just snowplowing its way south through other cells heading east north east . Not to mention, when I first noticed it, I never thought it could affect our area considering the other storm motions I was seeing on radar. I didn't even have any idea it was on our doorstep when I responded to @Jns2183 post about it. That was absolutely amazing and it turns out that there is several local wind reports from Harrisburg and surrounding areas, including New Cumberland and another less than a mile down the road from my house on Steigerwalt hollow Rd. , although it does get a little foggy South of Harrisburg In terms of what's cell is responsible for what report.  Figures I'd be watching it from the PaulB parking lot in Mechanicsburg.

My Wednesday to Friday forecast doesn't get me above 60 for any of the three days along with the rain...

The purple time stroke dots show the cell getting its act together and pretty well illustrate  its hard right turn up by Penn State and again above Harrisburg. It appears to lose some energy over @Blizzard of 93 before another pulse over The Harrisburg area , then most likely collapsing and resulting in the minor wind reports and heavy rains over the area by the looks of the lightning map.

Low of 62 and .35” of rain.

We got heavy rain in Marysville yesterday with that cell around 6 pm. The wind picked up, but was thankfully not severe & no hail either.

I’m up to 2.55 of rain for the week since last Sunday am.

[canderson]

At least 14 dead in that late night Kentucky tornado. They expect that to increase.
