Joshb32689 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Holy torrential downpours in the Coatesville area this is some of the heaviest rain I’ve ever seen - at least as a fully functioning adult 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Now up to 1.06" after more heavy rain. Glad to see the FFW that was carved around to exclude NW Philly, was supplemented with a new one to include it as I know there are some low-lying areas bordering creeks, that do flood with these kinds of heavy rain bursts. Currently in a break from the rain, with temp 75 and dp 74. Steambath! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Today will be the most pleasant day of the week with low relative humidity and temperatures not too far from normal for early August. Shower chances increase again later tomorrow and additional chances remain for the rest of the work week. No total washouts but plenty of shower chances.

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Have managed to get under a rain blob that moved up from the SW, briefly giving me >1"/hr rates. Currently 73 with dp 72 and moderate rain that dumped 0.44" in the bucket so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVblizzard Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Here comes the humidity. It was comfortable here 2 hours ago…not so much now. Hopefully we get some rain later to cool us down. This will be my last full week in the Lehigh Valley for awhile - possibly ever? I’m moving to Denver in a week and a half because it’s somewhere I’ve always wanted to live and I’m now in a position to give it a try. It gets hot out there sometimes but it’s a dry heat. “Humid” there is a DP of 60. It’s going to be quite the adjustment but I’m looking forward to living in a place with such volatile weather. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well good luck out west. Oddly enough, when I was out there about 25 years ago, other than there obviously being the wall of Rocky Mountains nearby and not being near a harbor, Denver reminded me of Baltimore (probably due to the extant buildings there built during a similar era as those in Baltimore). Denver has their notorious "spring snow", so that might be an adjustment . Regarding this round 2, I got side-swiped by the heaviest rain and picked up 0.35" for a total of 0.79" today. Sun is out and temp is 78 with dp an awful 77. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
