Not nearly as widespread as yesterday though. Yesterday we had lines of storms, unlike the isolated smaller cells today.

True - todays are taking 5 minutes to pop up and produce heavy rains another fast popper near south Old Bridge

In south plainfield pretty good downpour but not much else

Here it was just a brief moderate shower. Hopefully that's it for today. Nothing more behind this on radar right now, but will keep an eye on it in case something else pops up.

We'll see how much we can heat back up after these clouds move out in the next hour.

Yes at around 1650 ft elevation near Lake Harmony.  When I set up my Ambient WS-2000 and Ecowitt HP2584 weather stations I had to find the exact lat long and elevation and it came up with 1531 ft but I think that's wrong because it underdoes my Barometric pressure. I had to adjust it upward by about 0.05 inches on both units.  If you have an easier way for me to calculate my exact elevation I'd appreciate it Chris.  Here are the two numbers I used.

Absolute air pressure

28.55 inches

Relative air pressure

30.08 inches

Is the low absolute air pressure the reason I dont feel the Florida type humidity up here?
