Radarscope had me around 1.25" 

My gardens really needed rain so I was really hoping I got at least an inch.

Yesterday was the 5th chilliest low maximum temperature for the date with highs remaining in the 60's at Atglen, West Grove and East Nantmeal and just past 70 degrees at most other locations. We should remain below normal today but with highs a good 8 to 10 degrees above yesterday. A great weather week ahead with temperatures at or a bit below normal for the first week of August. Low's this morning were in the 50's with the lowest at Warwick Twp. at 54.8 degrees. Lows continue in the 50's the next couple of nights with lows not too far from 60 for the rest of this week. So a great break for all of our A.C.'s.
