yes and the cells over Raritan to Bridgewater just dissipated and looked like the cell over you grabbed all the energy to reform over northern middlesex

Yep and I was consistently on the western edge of it so not too much rain here. Starting to see some sun in the western sky. A quarter inch is about going to do it here.

It just drifted north over me. Suns out but still torrential downpour

Yeah just some very slow odd movement with these storms in our area. If I was just a few miles to the east I would have gotten a lot of rain. Still it was just enough to give things a watering here.

The heavy rain area is just sitting over North Edison to South Plainfield - Flash Flood Warning

Yeah I think South Plainfield must be close to 3 inches of rain. I'm close to the border of South Plainfield so this heavy just barely missed me a few miles to the east.

Have to watch outflow from that north cell, development could end up occurring into the city or north Queens over the next hour

And the storm over Middlesex-Union county is just shrinking and going away - next 2 days should be interesting...

A storm will bring rain and possible thunderstorms to the region during Tuesday and Wednesday. The potential exists for a general 2.00"-4.00" rainfall with locally higher amounts. 

Following the storm, Thursday and Friday will see a continuation of below normal readings. Temperatures could return to near seasonable levels for the weekend.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +3.8°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +2.2°C for the week centered around July 23. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +3.38°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.92°C. The ongoing strong El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer.

The SOI was -31.27 today. 

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.804 today. 

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 96% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal July (1991-2020 normal). July will likely finish with a mean temperature near 76.3° (1.2° below normal). 

Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 0.2° below the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

Radar reminds me of blinking lights on a Christmas tree.

Storms pops up and then disappear while new storms pop up and then they disappear. Rinse and repeat.

The HRRR has tried its last few runs to make it worse too, its delaying or not having that initial 15-18Z push.  I think the later it begins the worse it is.  Some models still have that period from 15-17z with showers which would probably mess things up somewhat.  The system is dynamic enough I think the evening would still be bad

Nothing here, but I could see the towering clouds all around in multiple directions.
This station in Bergen County is showing an inch of rain in 10 minutes if you break it down into the 5 minute observations from 18:30 and 18:35.

Today was "exactly normal" in Philadelphia... high 88 and a low of 70. How often does that actually happen? Normal high and low hit on the dot, so to speak.

Deluge right now. It's been one of the best thunderstorm summers in years here in Whitestone.
