  1. 65F at 2:00PM. Saw people in sweatshirts on the river trail at noontime. Not me of course, but still pretty awesome to see at noon in mid-September.
  2. From Horst: "Nice visualization of the smoke plume crossing North America from the western fires. The smoke layer over Pennsylvania is mainly between 15,000 - 20,000 feet, so there's no impact on surface air quality."
  3. Do I ever! I believe we had just had a strong cold front push through, and the forecast was for several days of refreshing, cool breezes and brilliant sunshine. At first I thought it was a colossal bust by all the mets until it was reported that the strong NW flow behind the front had ushered smoke from the Canadian fires right over PA. This is the 2nd most impressive "smoke event" that I can recall here.
  4. What a surreal sunset tonight. Wish I could have captured it but I was in traffic.
  5. Interesting that the sky is clearer in the direction the smoke is coming from.
  6. That's interesting...reading posts in the DC thread that smoke is obscuring the sky EAST of the Chesapeake...surprised it's not noticeable where you are. The sky here is almost 100% "white" with little to no blue visible.
  7. That's my assumption based on what I've been reading. Sky is very hazy.
  8. Certainly possible, but it's also possible we get that warm right into October. If I was a betting man (I'm not) I would hedge that a few of us hit 80 or better again this year. I think the first opportunity comes tomorrow...saw a couple of forecasts for 82 in Lancaster tomorrow.
  9. Very little sun but a pretty good east wind here. Feels good outside.
  10. If that was a snowfall map, I would have had an epic meltdown. I got .17" of rain yesterday. 2 miles to my SE there was nearly 1.5"
  11. Nice little bullseye over Adams county - Franklin county...notsomuch.
  12. Some isolated areas in the DC metro area have eclipsed 6" since 1PM. Not quite as impressive as the 10" in 3 hour deluge that hit Mt. Joy a few years ago, but still...
  13. Just saw that I'm under a flood advisory and that 1" - 2" of rain has already fallen in my area. My gauge says .16" so the worst must be JUST south of me.
  14. Oddly enough, it's rained more than it hasn't since noon here. Yet, most of the rain has fallen when the sun was at least visible if not out completely, and the only times it hasn't been raining is when it's been dark as night. DC area is getting crushed right now. Bad situation developing down in southern MD and DC metro area. Sounds like water rescues are ongoing...
  15. Got about .15" so far and when the rain started it got even worse out. House windows are all steamed up.
  16. Off and on showers the past hour or so here. Very, very muggy out.
  17. Yes it is, and I guess at least in part due to that, Mt. Holly has hoisted flood watches for my bordering counties.
  18. I briefly reached 82 for today's high. I got a couple hours of sun this afternoon or else I wouldn't have cracked 80.
  19. Unless you have a lot more sun than I do, I don't see how you make it to 87 today. I'm at 78 here now.
  20. I have 82 today and 81 tomorrow. Stop hoarding all of the cool air.
