I really got lucky this weekend, with the rain and storms on Thursday and last night. Fridaty and Saturday were perfect, and I got late night swims in.

[BBasile]

Picked up 0.67" overnight.  Up to 0.86" for June. 

[JTA66]

Ended up with the usual 0.40". AC off, windows open, 65F/DP 60F.

another 5 minute downpour thats it. lucky to get a .25 in if that
 

I was not so lucky - 0.24”. More to the north and south of us. Needed 2.24”!

Did well with the rain in Worcester, PA last night. 1.4 inch for the event. Most before midnight. Not much wind, some lightning, but much needed rain. Surprised some sites in the area did not get near that much.  Looks like the jackpot was over in Chester county.

[MGorse]

0.80 inches of rain here. Decent thunder and lightning but not much wind with the storms. 

[LVLion77]

Looking at the precip map, the Philly region south of Lansdale down to Wilmington DE did exceptionally well. The southern Poconos also did very well too. The Lehigh Valley and the far northern bucks and Montgomery counties did poorly.

[The Iceman]

2.10" last night. We got trained on from 10:30 - 12:30. Lots of wind damage around the township too. Several trees down.

[Chadzachadam]

Sorry the Lehigh Valley missed out but that was a hell of a storm in NW Philly. 1.9” and 2 full hours of lightning. And now it’s a refreshing 68, dew point down to 52

[soadforecasterx]

Ended up with 1.17" last night, hopefully we dont go another 2 week before we get rain again.

We've pretty much, more or less, stopped gaining daylight at this point. The sunrises and sunsets are just shifting a little bit later each day, but we aren't really gaining or losing daylight. At least not enough for anyone to really notice. We are in the period of maximum daylight.

Sure we are This weenie notices down to the last second and it makes me happy to know soon we'll be heading in the right direction (Fall)...

Plenty of chilly lows in the 40's across Chesco valley locales this AM. The lowest I could find was the 45.8 low at our typical chilly spot up in Warwick Twp. Another near perfect day on tap today with highs from the mid 70's along the ridges to the upper 70's in the valleys. We warm up with shower chances both Wednesday night and Thursday with highs well into the 80's. We turn cooler again for the weekend with highs remaining in the 70's in the higher spots with lots of sunshine.

I’m a little surprised we’re still under a slight risk for Thursday. The timing of the front and associated storms looks like it’ll be in the late morning/early afternoon, which is too early for instability to really do its thing. It does still look like we’ll get some rain at least which is very helpful, especially for the areas that got shafted on Sunday.

I wouldnt really throw in the towel yet. The NAM runs, while still an overall miss, trended better. This system itself is also super dynamic and is expected to spawn a tornado outbreak in the Midwest the day before. I would never count out a strong low pressure system moving just to our north at this time of year. I think this is one that could surprise.
