E PA/NJ/DE Summer 2026 Obs/Discussion

Not that you want it to verify but I can’t remember the last time one of these hyped up flash flooding potentials actually happened in the LV, but we have been a targeted bullseye all day 

[Hurricane Agnes]

So far with that spontaneous cell, I picked up 0.87".  There is another blob out west although I don't know if it will hold together if it encounters more stable air.  Currently 73 with dp  73.

A little late but heres some pics from 7/3 (derecho?) in lower macungie. still have no power and cellular is spotty here
same front that tore up alburtis on friday.
all the trees in my front yard blew toward the house. house itself didnt get hit but clobbered 2 cars. lots of toppled trees for about a mile stretch north/south on my road, beyond that it looks like nothing happened

facebook vid is by someone else in the area

There's currently a decent light show here, but the heavy rains missed to the west, just barely.  Only picked up 0.05".  Have received less than 0.3" these last few days.  Really could use some good rains.  75.7F, 71 dew.

I watched that storm go by! This is looking north from Reading, the storm moved west to east. Thought it looked pretty impressive. Glad your house is ok!

Yeah it was nice here too, lots of "sky lightning" with a lot of long branches. I was hoping you'd get some pics, lol.

[KamuSnow]

Nice rain here now, thunder and some closer lightning. About 0.55" from this storm so far. Alao have a severe thunderstorm warning and a flash flood warning - busy!

[SouthernNJ]

Some isolated strong winds along the line from Marcus Hook to Woodstown.  Frequent lightning occurring as well as this will move into South Philadelphia and Camden.

[SouthernNJ]

Winds decent here for the past several minutes, now pretty strong winds signature (and some spin) entering East Greenwich.

[BBasile]

It's like the 4th all over again.
