E PA/NJ/DE Summer 2025 Obs/Discussion

[Hurricane Agnes]

My rain rates have gradually increased to almost 1"/hr give or take, as the heaviest, and now back down to about 1/3"/hr and currently have 0.53" in the bucket at post time.  Temp down to 74 with dp 73.  Most of the current heavier returns have moved to my east.

Looks like a TOR up in DE.

[BBasile]

Well, it's raining.  

[BBasile]

Just an example of why some locations measure more rain than others (mine) lol

[Kevin Reilly]

Light to moderate rain some left over lightning and loud thunder.  69f humidity 97% dew point 69f

 

Total rainfall: 2.52" 

[Kevin Reilly]

Looks like another tornado warning down in Sussex County Delaware Moving NE towards Delaware Bay currently.  Thats an impressive line down to our south. Looks like a mesoscale low just south of the Delaware Memorial Bridge moving NE at 20 mph or so.

Sharp cutoff above 78 with the precip. Had a few drops here in whitehall.

Lower Macungie and only had 0.17. I am shocked we have not gotten torrential rains over the last few days in this soup, but the bands have setup elsewhere. I am over 2” for the month but relatively little recently.

Still waiting for my turn!  lol.  Picked up 0.46" which is, oddly, exactly the same as yesterday.  So, 0.92" over two days is great, especially for all the brown foliage, but... I am requesting mayhem.  Just once this year?

Necesitamos más, por favor.  Gracias.  

[Nodriveslow]

1.51" last night

2.80" for the week! (so far)

[JTA66]

Seems the TP was the dividing line between the heavier rains. Ended up with .40” last evening bringing my weekly total up to .70”.

69F/DP68

You sound just like me. I know it's probably wrong, but I want my turn with a true severe event with flooding rains, wind, and strobe like lightning. Just like in winter with snow, I want to get dumped on. I'm a "go big, or go home" type of weather weenie...lol

[Hurricane Agnes]

Finished up with 0.99" yesterday, 2.88" over the past 3 days, and 4.45" for the month of July so far.

Bottomed out at 67 this morning and it's currently overcast and 72 with dp 69.

[ChescoWx]

Large differences as usual in these set ups regarding rain amounts yesterday - Kennett Square 3.88" / Longwood Gardens 2.05" / East Nantmeal 0.35" / Chester Springs 0.24" / Devault 0.41" / West Bradford 1.38" / Nottingham 0.33" / Warwick 0.28" / West Grove 2.71". We should see a reduction in heavy rain over the next week but still some rain chances most days. The warmest couple of days look to be both Friday and Saturday in the mid to upper 80's before we fall back to closer to normal next week with highs in the middle 80's.
