Central PA Summer 2025

[Jns2183]

So a few weeks ago I was complaining about how I thought this being the most humid summer I can possibly remember. Well I came across this article from a few days ago basically detailing that a lot of states have had their most humid summer ever recorded with dew points 6 degrees higher than the 1951-2020 average. That's actually insane.
 
https://www.wtnh.com/news/national/feel-sticky-this-summer-its-been-record-muggy-in-the-northeast/
"More than 70 million Americans sweated through the muggiest first two months of summer on record
Parts of 27 states and Washington, D.C., had a record amount of days that meteorologists call uncomfortable — with average daily dew points of 65 degrees Fahrenheit or higher — in June and July, according to data derived from the Copernicus Climate Service.
And that’s just the daily average. In much of the East, the mugginess kept rising to near tropical levels for a few humid hours. Philadelphia had 29 days, Washington had 27 days and Baltimore had 24 days where the highest dew point simmered to at least 75 degrees, which even the the weather service office in Tampa calls oppressive, according to weather service data.
The summer of 2025 so far has had dew points that average at least 6 degrees higher than the 1951-2020 normals in Washington, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Richmond, Columbus and St. Louis, the AP calculations show. The average June and July humidity for the entire country east of the Rockies rose to more than 66 degrees, higher than any year since measurements started in 1950.
The area east of the Rockies has on average gained about 2.5 degrees in summer dew point since 1950, the AP analysis of Copernicus data shows. In the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and part of the 1990s, the eastern half of the country had an average dew point in the low 60s"

This article has lots and lots of issues. Namely ones they have exact reading for and ones they assume from some calculation which is why I hate this. They assume an orange is an apple without proving an orange is an apple.

This little meandering rain shower just to the north of Harrisburg can’t make its mind up on which direction that it wants to go this evening.

Marysville got .13 of rain so far today.

Looks like I'm going to miss another 90 degree day by a tenth. So far the high is 89.4 degrees.

91 here so we flipped flipped today 

Well, sometime after I made my post, we jumped enough to actually go above true 90.

It is never going to rain again. All the grass around is dead deed dead.

I wake up to see I missed again. An overnight storm complex left southwestern Schuylkill County in a flood warning this morning. Some personal weather stations recorded as much as 4 inches of rain. Sadly, it drifted southeast into Berks County.

Low of only 73. Looks like some relief is on the way for the start of the work week.

Yesterday was our warmest day so far this month with a couple spots even reaching 90 degrees for the first time in August. Today may be a couple degrees cooler before again reaching well into the 80's on Sunday. We then see a front swing through on Sunday night and behind this we turn much cooler for the rest of the week with high temperatures remaining in the 70's by day and upper 50's to lower 60's by night. Slight chances of showers most days of the week with the greatest chances by Tuesday night into Wednesday.

Monday and Tuesday I see weather that would fit in my dreams. Temperature in the upper 70s, overcast, slight east wind. Beautiful

Erin's RI was insane as much as it was almost predictable with the hand it was dealt.

Radar has just been depressing this past month. I'm at 0.51" the last 30 days and the grass has gone fast

I’m at .2 since July 10. Everything is dying fast.  Had my roof redone 2 weeks ago and would love rain to help wash any remnants out of the gutters.

Twitter is a cesspool of bots but this is amazing eyewall of Erin footage

Noticed a lot of leaves down this evening as we went for a drive.  Sad stuff.

Plenty of rain in Marysville again today.

.86 of rain from that Perry County special storm this afternoon.

Got another mow in today & the weeds are never ending.
