Chief83 Posted Monday at 02:20 AM Share Posted Monday at 02:20 AM Worcester, PA. .70 rain. Initial shower to our east seemed to stall and backfill west and we got in on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted Monday at 01:35 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:35 PM Our extreme heat watch goes into effect starting on Wednesday. The next couple of days will be close to average for the end of June. Most spots should reach the low 90's starting on Wednesday with the peak hot days being both Thursday and Friday with highs in the upper 90's in most spots to near 100 in lower elevation valley locations. Storm chances increase a little on Independence Day and will help trim temperatures a little by the end of next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted Monday at 01:47 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:47 PM Heard a lone cicada on this morning's Jebwalk. Seems a little early in the season, so maybe he's just an early riser. Finished with 1.05" last evening. I'm sure most was just run off, but hopefully whatever the lawn was able to absorb will help it survive the week. 70F/DP 69F 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted Monday at 04:20 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:20 PM With a chance that some locations could see a 100-degree day later this week I went back and analyzed 30 temperature stations across the area to see just how rare such a day has become. A 100-degree day is a rare occurrence across most spots across the County. With the potential being even more rare across the relatively higher ridge stations above 595 ft. In fact the last time any ridge location station saw a 100-degree reading was 15 years ago back on July 22, 2011. Of the 18 current stations across the area that report temperatures 9 of these have never recorded such a day. Our lowest elevation stations at Phoenixville and nearby Spring City both recorded a 100+ day last June. To illustrate how different the temperature elevation impact can be on June 26, 2025 while Spring City (256 ft ASL) was hitting the century mark....not too far away at Glenmoore DEOS (620 FT ASL) but 400 feet higher the high was 10 degrees cooler at "only" 90.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeymac5306 Posted Monday at 05:31 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:31 PM Got an email from the guys doing the 250th parade Friday in Philly. They are cutting the route down to one mile rather than the 2.4 miles it was planned for. They are adding extra water stations and have SEPTA buses on standby for cooling areas. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted Tuesday at 03:13 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:13 AM Keep an eye on Wednesday. Some of the 0z mesos are suggesting there could be some strong storms that day. These ring of fire pattern storms can be hard to nail down until the day of. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted Tuesday at 11:37 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:37 AM Today should be our last sub 90 degree high until Monday. Mid to upper 80's today rising into the low to mid 90's tomorrow and then upper 90's in higher spots to near 100 in our valley locations both Thursday and Friday. Shower chances increase later July 4th with the days trending slightly cooler with highs by Monday in the upper 80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Derechoes happen, widespread 100s, and some places will get to 105, on Thursday and Friday. Remember in 2012, when this area got widespread 100 and DC got to 105 after the Derecho.

JTA66 Posted Tuesday at 03:02 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:02 PM Currently my forecasted highs for Thursday and Friday are only 100F. Somehow that feels like a small victory. (But yeah, I taking the over.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychguy Posted Tuesday at 11:46 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:46 PM Hey all... Newbie here. I live in the Northwest part of Philadelphia (Mt. Airy is the section of the city), am a Philly Public School teacher (Psychology and history) for 29 years, and have been a "lurker" on here for quite some time. I have learned a lot by reading the Philadelphia, NYC metro, and New England discussion forums over the years. I have been interested in the weather since I was a kid growing up in Wisconsin... I think the summer of 1977 with its heat and severe weather along with the winter of 1978-1979 (I was in 4th grade... we had so many snow days we had to make one up on a SATURDAY) are what sparked this interest. In any event, I look forward to perhaps joining in on some future discussions. Take care and stay cool this week. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the 90s you got heat stroke and liked it. You cooled off with a warm PBR and hanging out in the 700 level of the Vet. Kids these days are softer than Tasty Twisters Pretzels™. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in Roxborough near Manayunk Ave & Ridge Ave. Went to school in Manayunk then Norristown. Loved biking and fishing back the Wissahickon from the Septa bridge up to the Valley Green Inn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airy but what I remember about '77 was the glacial winter, with sheets of ice formed after endless melting and refreezing. The winter of '78-'79 (my senior year in high school) broke a long time snow drought, and after the biggest storm, my sisters and I built a good-sized snowman on the front lawn, and we ended up getting "tourists" stopping or slowing to take pics. Currently sunny and 80 with dp a juicy 73. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted Wednesday at 01:12 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:12 PM We finished June with temperatures for the month only slightly above normal. Our extremely hot stretch of weather begins today and will continue through the weekend. The hottest days look to be both Thursday and Friday where we will be in the upper 90's on the ridges and near or above 100 degrees in the valley locales. Shower chances increase by July 4th night and continue into Sunday and Monday. This will start to trim the extremely high temperatures and by next Tuesday we will be back to near normal with highs in the mid 80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
