why, this is the worst weather ever

I mean the data coverage. There should be another radar station somewhere around Reading, PA. 

[SACRUS]

 

64 / 59 light rain.  Kinds of luck yesterday going partly sunny as the next 72 hours starting today look like Ireland - coold cloudy and spotty rain / drizzle. Heaviest rains stay south and today looks the wettest of the next 3.   Highs near or below 70 each of the 3 days.  Clear out and warm up by Tuesday.  80s by Wed and next shot at 90 by Thu with continued storm chances.   Het builds out of the west to the north and east by the 20th with shot of a much hotter pattern especially inland from there and beyond.  

 

6/14 - 6/16:   Cool / cloudy wet around 0.5 for most
6/17 - 6/19:   Warmer / still chance of shower/storms
6/20 - beyond :   Heat builds north and east / Overall warm-hot and wet

1903 - The Heppner Disaster occurred in Oregon. A cloudburst in the hills sent a flood down Willow Creek, and a twenty foot wall of water swept away a third of the town in minutes, killing 236 residents and causing 100 million dollars damage. (David Ludlum)

 

1953: The warmest June on record occurred in Oklahoma City, OK. The main part of the heat wave extended from the 11th through the 21st, and seven of the daily high temperatures during that stretch remain records for their respective dates. June 14th was the hottest day, reaching a toasty 106°. The other records ranged from 100° to 105°. Even the nighttime lows were records. Eight daily minimum temperatures from June 1953 are still record-warm daily minimum temperatures, ranging from 75° to 80°. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History)

1957: An F4 tornado moved across the south and southeast sides of Springfield, IL. The tornado destroyed 25 homes and severely damaged 175 others; property damage was around $3 million dollars. On the north side of town, the storms produced a wind gust of 98 mph at Capital Airport, which still stands as Springfield's record wind speed. Two people died during the storm, with over 50 others injured. A separate tornado touched down in downtown Jacksonville, destroying or damaging 40 buildings. East St. Louis, IL recorded the state record for rainfall in 24 hours with 16.54 inches. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History)

1961 - The temperature in Downtown San Francisco, CA, soared to 106 degrees to establish an all-time record for that location. (The Weather Channel)

 

1974: A tornado took an intermittent 53 mile long path across northwest and west central Illinois. The tornado first touched down just southeast of the Quad Cities, and moved southeast into Knox County. In Abingdon, 200 homes were damaged or destroyed. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History)

1987 - Thirty-two cities in the central U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. The high of 97 degrees at Flint, MI, tied their record for June, and the high of 101 at Milwaukee WI marked their first 100 degree reading in 32 years. Thunderstorms brought much needed rains to South Texas, drenching McAllen with 3.2 inches in one hour. A thunderstorm soaked the town of Uncertain with 2.3 inches of rain in one hour. (The National Weather Summary)

1988 - Thirty cities in the eastern U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. (The National Weather Summary)

1989 - Thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front produced severe weather from the Central Gulf States to the Middle Atlantic Coast Region during the day and into the night. There were 62 reports of large hail and damaging winds. Thunderstorm winds caused 28 million dollars damage in Montgomery County MD. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary)

 

1990: Shadyside, OH was destroyed by a wall of water up to 30 feet high causing 26 fatalities. The flooding was caused by 4 inches of rain that fell in just 75 minutes. Localized, excessive rainfall fell on saturated ground over southeastern Ohio during the evening, resulting in a 15 to 20 foot wall of water that raced down three small tributaries of the Ohio River. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History)

1994: Norfolk: a bolt of lightning struck and critically injured a 50-year-old woman and a 38-year-old man playing in a golf tournament at Greenbrier Country Club in . Both suffered severe burns.

2010: During June 14, training thunderstorms associated with a nearly-stationary cold front and an intense low-level jet brought torrential rains to the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, area. Six to nine inches of rain in little more than three hours caused flash floods, resulting in more than three dozen water rescues. The North Canadian River at Oklahoma City rose from eight feet to over 21 feet almost instantly during the morning of June 14, Oklahoma City's wettest day on record (7.62 inches).

Only saving grace is while cool and cloudy we should avoid the heaviest rains these next 72 hours.

The next week is spotty rains Sat-Mon then some overnight showers storms Wed- and scattered storms Thu-FRi,

1953 had a historically hot summer for us too, with two legendary historic heatwaves with 4 100+ degree days spread evenly between them and even a historic severe wx outbreak with an F4 tornado in Worcester, MA!!

Summer Solstice.  My summer starts June first.  

[jm1220]

In the winter because the overrunning would be better this would likely be heavy 1-2”/hour snow. We only get these in the summer now on weekends.

Agree.  Other places not so much, but in the tri state we match up better with astronomical seasons overall.

with our snowfall too, it seems like our first snowfall is around the winter solstice December 21 and our last snowfall is around the vernal equinox March 21.

How so? Forget about snow, December is colder than March. June is warmer than September.

Wish it happens during October, this is garbage for June any way you slice it

We typically don't start getting sustained warmth until mid late June.  We typically don't get sustained cold until mid late December.   We typically don't get sustained cooler/crisp weather until late Sept early Oct.  We typically don't get sustained warmer days until late March/early April.  Snow chances drop dramatically around March 20, 90 degree days are few after Sept 20....

Then you are really going to enjoy the pattern in a little over a week. Both the Euro and GFS have westerly flow with 100° heat potential around the area. Even if the models are 7° too warm, the first 95°+ of the season looks like a good bet. 
 

 

wow this is absolutely amazing, even the Poconos at 2000 ft will hit 95!!

I guarantee you we wont get a day as cold as today in September.

4 weekends out of 15 summer weekends flushed down the drain

 

The loss of money of the beach businesses losing 9 days so far has to be enormous 

[SnoSki14]

Finally a good weekend next week in time for the solstice

No our news said the last dry weekend was actually April 17-18

The good news is this WILL be the last wet weekend, the rain party comes to a screeching end after this abysmal storm dies.

 

[NCPOW]

Is that rain that is currently in central PA going to reach here later today?

[SACRUS]

 

Mod - heavy rain and 0.63 in the bucket.
