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

 

@MUweather

 

Isolated showers and storms may essentially occur anytime between ~12-7 PM. I think coverage will definitely be greater than the 3k NAM or HRRR models suggest, but the cold front will already be S/E of the LSV this afternoon. A few brief downpours are the main threat..

Interesting - CTP disagree! Lol

Nice to see this on the latest weeklies. Temps have been dropping for that period over the next few days.

Very interesting that you posted this because I was just coming here to say that I wasn't expecting this many blotches on the radar near us today, let alone at this hour.

@canderson we find ourselves in a familiar spot currently

And they appear to be slow moving

Temp down to 77 at home with 0.12" of rain. It's better than nothing.

Now multiple areas in dauphin county have announced voluntary water restrictions due to lack of "productive rainfall". Seems Lancaster county is on a whole different planet compared to everyone else.

Looks like I got at least .4" from what just went through.  Yet another potent line going through Etown as we speak.  Can't believe how active it is for what I thought was going to be a down day.

We sure are but even within Lancaster there are winners and losers.  Also, I'd say there are other swaths of eastern PA that have really been cashing in as well.  Hey, it's late summer, which means you never have to go far to find dry areas.  The madness of summertime convection is what makes it so fun and frustrating ha.

Just read on MU's X account that parts of Cumberland County are over 2" for today so far.

Can you imagine back in the day when it not raining was due to witchcraft? No wonder stuff got so crazy.

0.65" of rain. Very nice.

Leaving in the morning for 2 weeks in Florida. Bucket list trip including the Overseas Highway. Back at the end of the month.

That’s awesome, enjoy my friend!

No rain, 87 for a high. Didn’t hit 90 like I thought I would.  

Can’t tell you how much I’m over his summer. The humidity has been Houston level for months.  This new climate sucks.

I had 91 yesterday. Wasn't expecting it to be so warm.

In a few month we'll be suffering from an endless wind and cold. I'll (and a few other ones on here) will enjoy of what summer has to offer us.
