Itstrainingtime

Just a little over a month shy of the 8 year anniversary of Tropical Storm Lee - dropped 15.25" of rain here. Will never forget it.

Take care and get better soon Steve!

.32" here after a big-time tropical downpour. Hoping for 3.54" to get me to 6" since Saturday.

Hoping I can get into the CCB action tomorrow. Should be some good ratios with that.

It's not truly a winter vibe until @Wmsptwx stops in and asks you 6 times if you think significant snow will make it into his 'hood. Then, and only then...is it winter.

Well, you should be set...I shaved mine off last night.

I was just shy of 2.5" on Saturday night and needed to make it up. Sorry it came at your expense.

Raining.

LNS is 2.53" below normal YTD, so this event has an excellent shot of getting us AN rainfall for the year. Hard to believe...

Mostly cloudy here. Stop hogging all of the moisture.

Some of the those cells approaching from the south were showing some decent rotation in the past hour or two as well.

How about that? 89 here as well...though it's still 89 and perhaps one final push to 90 is still possible here.

And yet somehow in that setup the FV3 would depict 2' of snow. Anyway...I see Tropical Storm Warnings have now been extended all the way up to the M/D line. It's fun to have something to talk about other than 97 with a 30% chance of an isolated (not over Rouzerville) thunderstorm.

No way. Storm track, being an inland runner is far too west for at least paweather and me not to have significant mixing issues. Bubbler might be far enough west to hold off most of the taint, but WAA aloft waits for no man...

DP is down 10 degrees from this time yesterday.

Those of us in the southern tier can see the outer edge of the system in the southern sky this morning.

Time for my single Horst post for the upcoming snowstorm...I mean tropical system. He's calling for 2.5 - 5" of rain in Lancaster with 15-25 mph winds. Of real note, and the main purpose of this post, he shared some numbers for the month of July: 23 days of 90+ temperatures (new record, previous record was 21 days in 1955) New record average temperature for the month And the most fascinating thing to me - NO daily temperature records were broken. In fact, while we had a record number of 90 degree days, the record is largely due to the anomalously warm overnight lows.

According to CTP there was nearly 4" west of Lebanon to my NE.

Final tally in the bucket was 2.48". Saw a report of 3"+ between Elizabethtown and Palmyra.

Storm after storm after storm...might say that it's been training time for me tonight. Gauge is at 2.16" and it is raining harder than at any point.

I might end up with more rain tonight than from the tropical system. It's been a soggy evening and there's an even heavier cell heading towards me.

As you know, it will likely change, and change a lot. Since the first rain event that was set to begin last night, I've had a grand total of 0.00"

@Bubbler86 Fringed...

The 1PM hourly update at MDT showed a temp of 81 after a morning low of 73. This is officially the warmest July on record in Harrisburg!

Cannot imagine not running the AC today. 81 here as well. Feels gross out.
