BBasile Posted Saturday at 05:34 PM Share Posted Saturday at 05:34 PM Once again. Maybe I'll actually get something today? It's currently 89.7F with a 76F dew. Edit: Just hit 90F for the third consecutive day. Edit 2: It's all collapsing into a pile of blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernNJ Posted Saturday at 06:12 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:12 PM Outflow has weakened the northern line segment, and strengthened the storms on the Eastern Shore into Central Delaware, however isolated strong winds are still possible east of Wilmington.

KamuSnow Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM Had a severe warning here but it weakened on the doorstep, so a little wind with some thunder and lightning, and about .30" of rain so far. Total of 0.75" between yesterday and today so far, still raining a bit. 77°F at the moment, that's not hard to take! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted Saturday at 07:07 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:07 PM Got/getting very little. Dissipation is the name of the game. It did drop the temp down to 75F and the dew down to 68F, so there's that. Storm didn't look bad approaching, but what developed down towards Vineland looked more impressive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Good luck, and enjoy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted yesterday at 02:00 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:00 PM Continued warm and humid through Tuesday before we start a welcome cooling trend which by Saturday morning will see some locations with lows in the 50's with highs by the end of the week in the pleasant 70's. Best chances of any rain will be Monday night through Wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshb32689 Posted yesterday at 02:47 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:47 PM Oh good, a return to base state At least we put a good dent in the drought. I suppose we take a breather before the STJ on steroids gets going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted yesterday at 02:57 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:57 PM I had a request to update the "heatwave" stats to something potentially more meaningful. Which is 3 or more consecutive days with daily maximum temperatures above the 90th and 95th percentile for all Chester County Stations. The below rank summary makes the absolute-vs-relative divergence concrete. Sorted by absolute rank, the biggest movers are the 2010s (11th → 4th) and 2020s (13th → 6th), both rising 7 places once heat is judged against each station's own norm — meaning recent decades have been locally extreme even though they weren't absolutely record-hot. Going the other way, the 1960s (−4) and 1990s (−5) fall under the relative lens, and the 1940s slip from 1st to 3rd. The 1930s hold firm near the top under both definitions, and the 1950s actually take the #1 spot under P90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Hit 91 for a high today after a 72 low and it's currently 85 with the dp finally out of the mid-upper 70s and sitting at 70. As a precip note, I only got 0.04" out of that storm that came through yesterday as most of us watched it disintegrate as it moved east, north of I-76. For the first week of August though, I actually have 4.42" of rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago The mesoscale storm system that brought this morning’s clouds and rain across eastern Pennsylvania is finally beginning to fizzle out and move away. That could actually set the stage for a more active afternoon. For the first time in several weeks, the stubborn all-day cloud cover is beginning to break, allowing some afternoon sunshine to return. If we get several hours of heating, the atmosphere could destabilize fairly quickly given the abundant moisture already in place. That means the Lehigh Valley and eastern Pennsylvania could see thunderstorms redevelop later this afternoon and into the evening. Any stronger storms that form could produce torrential downpours, frequent lightning, strong to potentially damaging wind gusts, and localized flooding. The big thing to watch over the next few hours is how much sunshine and heating we get behind the departing morning system. The more clearing we see, the greater the potential for stronger convection later today. I would not be surprised to see the National Weather Service issue a Severe Thunderstorm Watch later this afternoon, especially if instability builds as expected. Keep an eye on the sky and radar this afternoon. The morning storms may be ending, but they may only be setting the table for round two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
