Well it all collapsed. I might get .05” maybe - it’s a heavy sprinkle. 

I did the same in Elysburg. It did rain hard enough to wet the ground pretty good though

Glad it worked out! Didn’t even get the we ground here - oh well. I’ll water. The sun is out and it’s like a billion degrees dew point.

We are visiting some friends at their campsite here near Dutch Wonderland and it’s absolute mayhem. Mega drenching storms with round two on the way! Mill Creek is about to rage. 

Wonder why the storms keep raking the same general areas this year. South of 78 and north of 80 seem to be the hot spots.

Wow 

We just talked to some people who were trying to tent right by the creek and they have four inches of water inside their tent with all their clothes soaked. They fled to their car for a while and are now deciding to abandon ship. Grateful to be in a camper.

NWS State College:

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
The widespread stormy and unsettled pattern resumes Monday with
a shortwave trough and subsequent falling heights progressing
through the Great Lakes, putting the Commonwealth back in the
warm sector as deeper moisture is pulled north. Partly cloudy
skies to begin the day on Monday will allow for plenty of
destabilization. This combined with the above mentioned moisture
return and increasing deep layer shear of around 25-30 knots
will provide the ingredients for another round of strong storms
Monday afternoon/evening. Strong outflow winds and heavy
rainfall look to be the primary threats.

They forgot the part that says "except wherever Voyager is located, and/or Tamaqua"....lol

So here's how yesterday at Knoebels panned out. Around 4:30 the sky to the west got black as night, and it looked like a solid pummelling was to commence in short order, so we bailed and headed to the car. The rain came, but it was nothing more than a shower that got everything wet, but no thunder or lightning. The line had broken apart. Some went north of 80 and some stayed south along and near the 81/78 split. By the time we got to Frackville (Cracker Barrel) it was high and dry.

The "Tamaqua Split" yesterday became the "Elysburg Split"...

We picked up just 0.05" of rain last night with the thundershower that rolled through. Today looks sunny and dry with temperatures a few degrees above normal in the mid to upper 80's. We remain humid. Shower chances increase by tomorrow afternoon and evening. We then look dry and mostly sunny for the remainder of the week with highs not too far from average for the start of July with temperatures in the mid 80's. No significant heat with highs in the 90's for at least the next week to 10 days.

Yearly rainfall deficit going into July is 2.23". I'm at 18.3" for year with 8.5" coming in May. This month seems to be a lock for another below month at 3.10". At least it was close.

It must follow you where ever you go. I think you should call it the Voyager split at this point. Since I don't need rain for at least another  week I want you to come down and camp along the creek to keep the rain away

Back home from camping. Low of 69 with 1.3” of rain. Perfect summer day on tap today, great for pools or boats. 

Between Friday and Saturday you received 1.8" of rain while I got 0.12".

Another warm and humid day with temperatures well up into the 80's. Rain chances are increasing tonight and through tomorrow. Some spots could pick up another 1" to 2" adding on to our rain surplus so far here in 2025. We turn a bit more comfortable with lower humidity and temperatures not far from normal for early July as we head toward the holiday weekend.
