LVLion77 Posted Monday at 06:38 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:38 PM Same here. The lv got screwed again. The models cannot handle the dryness. The corn is smiling again. All we have gotten is the bad wind damage LingI suspect, but I can’t stay with certainty that the forecasting accuracy has gotten far worse for a place like the Lehigh Valley. I could be talking out of my rear, but I just wonder if overreliance on computer modeling eliminates the way that local human meteorologist would take into account other factors, such as local elevations, microclimates, stable airflows, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is dependent on the exact placement of outflow boundaries with respect to terrain. Any marginal error in timing, placement, strength of cold pool, etc will result in a completely different evolution of these storms 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Some light showers have been around this morning, and we will continue with some small chances of these through the day. We clear up tomorrow with what looks to be our best weather day of the week with sunny skies and highs several degrees below normal July levels in the upper 70's to near 80. Our next chance of showers and storms looks to arrive on Thursday night into Friday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a gorgeous day today... loved my morning walk in the mist/fog with the pup and my better half... loved that I was able to go for a run and not sweat 10 gallons, and am loving sitting on the porch listening to the birds and the kids playing outside (I could however do without the Mister Softee jingle in the background... but you can't have everything, I guess... :))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
