Central PA Summer 2025

[Jns2183]

91 today. Next date to not hit 90 is maybe next Tuesday, which would be 10 days hitting it in a row. 

We may not hit tomorrow if we can actually get some rain in here

72/70 this morning with some fogged up windows. Might be some big winners in the forum today.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for central Pennsylvania.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

Thunderstorms with very heavy rain are possible today and early
tonight. The heavy rain may cause isolated incidents of flooding.

Showers and thunderstorms are becoming more likely as we move toward later this afternoon and into the night. For most spots this will be our first measurable rain since August 1st. The sun returns by Friday with above normal temperatures through the weekend and then cool back to near to below normal by early in the new work week. Our best chance at what could very well be our last 90 plus day of the summer looks to be Sunday.

True - I’m playing the “predict against it” in case it happens. My garden is brown as can be.

Nipped this from the Mid Attlantic forum.

This looks promising

Mid-Level Vort Energy would be a great band name.

That mcs is taking its good old time working its way here. All I see are ways it can fail.

If I get 0.25" of rain from this I'll feel lucky. Whatever this is, it is a far far cry from heavy

Looking like a .05” type nuisance.

If I get 6 drops I might be happy. 

[Itstrainingtime]

Looks like between 2-4" of rain has already fallen just north of Lancaster with a lot more to come. Not a drop at home. 

[canderson]

I overshot. .02”.  Didn’t even get moisture under any leaf. 

[Itstrainingtime]

Big storm here at work. Glad I stayed for the electric show. A ground dampening at home that did not register in the gauge.

A couple tenths here. Big winners just to the east of me today. 

[Superstorm]

0.63” in the rain gauge today.

Time to start praying for a 5-10" tropical miracle in September or else I may not top. 30" for the year

Looks like I missed out on the rain today.

[canderson]

It’s still dusty out. 
 

And the humid is like Panama.

We are going to have the only high ground in a tropical system from our grass being able to suck down 10" easy

Nothing measurable in Maytown. Disappointing.

[Mount Joy Snowman]

Low of 70 with .2” of rain. 

[Blizzard of 93]

.75 of rain in Marysville yesterday.

[pawatch]

No measurable rainfall yesterday. NWS was showing on a map we got .10” of an inch yesterday. 
You go to the daily climate site it sais no precipitation yesterday. Don’t know who got precipitation??
 

Got up to P at 2:30 am “old head thing  “

And the temperature was 73 degrees, definitely prefer them 50 degree mornings.

[pasnownut]

1.7" in Akron yesterday.  Funny thing is that it didnt "feel" like that much.  Ida guessed half of that tops. 

Happy pre Friday all.

Most folks across the north and west parts of the county saw little rain (under 0.05")....much different across other spots with West Grove 1.39" / Nottingham 2.33" / Avondale 1N 0.55" / Kennett Square 1.26" / Devault 1.70". We do have a chance at some more showers this afternoon. Mainly dry and sunny weather looks likely for the weekend. Of note most spots across Chester County have not experienced any days over 90 degrees so far here in August. The exceptions were West Chester and Devault yesterday. Most spots in the county look to have potentially their next shot at a 90-degree temperature on Sunday with highs well into the 80's. As we move through next week temperatures begin to cool back down to not far from normal levels with some higher spots seeing highs mainly in the 70's by mid-week.

[canderson]

None of the cold fronts will take it to the LSV it seems so no reprieve from this humidity for a week at least.
