    Big time hockey night tonight...local team going for yet another Calder Cup while a dramatic game 7 unfolds for the Stanley Cup. Drop the puck!

    MU Weather Center Some crazy wind out there today by #summer standards (in the absence of T-storms). Peak gusts through 1 PM have reached 39 mph at Lancaster Apt, 37 mph at Harrisburg, & 31 mph at York Apt. Keep a tight grip on the wheel, especially on east-west oriented highways.

    100% agree. Monday-Friday were tolerable enough, but Saturday was a bit much. I'm sure being outside for 7 hours continuously had a lot to do with my perception.

    A very pleasant 80 at noon. 5 from the normal high...so we might end up very close to normal. But it feels so much better.

    @MUweather Some stats from the #heatwave 1) The mercury reached 99F on Saturday for the 1st time since July 3, 2018. 2) Saturday's mean temp of 87F tied the highest on record in #June. 3) Sunday's low temp of 77F matched the highest minimum temp on record in June.

    I'm not saying which size I need. LOL

    Severe weather threat on Wednesday followed by a couple of nice days to close out the work week. Maybe some unsettled weather next weekend as the warmer, more humid air mass is overhead. Interesting comments you made about Saturday - my wife is fazed by nothing. Like literally nothing. I don't ever recall her in our 30 years together of her once complaining about any type of weather. Certainly never about heat. Saturday broke her. She was miserable. I was miserable. She has her own little business and we were vendors at a craft show Saturday. When we got home, we "died" together. We were home by 3pm and did virtually nothing the remainder of the day. We were exhausted. So we did what normal people do after that...we got up early yesterday and promptly drove to Philly and sat in the heat for 4 more hours yesterday afternoon.

    Wrong person. I haven't had that bod since... Hmmm.
  9. Itstrainingtime
    Quite possible. I knew today was going to be an improvement but it seems more drastic than I realized...it's REALLY nice out!

    After last week and the last few days in particular, it feels amazing outside today!

    Doing my best between Baltimore and Philly - as of now we have tickets to 5 more games in Philly. We got 10 games in Baltimore and 8 in Philly total for the season. During the 1980s and much of the 1990s I would go to a minimum of 30 games a season. We haven't done anything close to that since. The 18 games this year is by far the most since then. We upped our baseball games after we completely dropped the 76ers season tickets.

    Final numbers for last week: Heat wave locally lasted 7 days High temps were 91, 93, 93, 93, 98, 101, 94 8 days this year with temps at or above 90 MU's high of 99 on Saturday broke a record that stood for 103 years. (previous record of 98 was set in 1921) Depending on how this week breaks, could end up in double digits for 90 degree days for the season heading into July.

    @Mount Joy Snowman - did you hear any reports out of Mt. Joy proper from Saturday afternoon's storm? That storm dropped .25" of rain at my place in the form of a steady shower, but when we drove through the town yesterday morning on our way to Philly it looked like a war zone...trees and lines were down everywhere. A little research (social media) showed that people reported "definitely seeing a tornado" where others were like no, it was straight-line wind damage. Regardless, there were no warnings issued and I wasn't aware that there was even a storm...but just a few miles down the road from me, they got crushed. Scope of damage that I saw, winds had to be over the threshold for a warning.

    73 when I left for work at 6:30, 72 was the overnight low. Storm overnight had a lot more bark (thunder) than bite (rainfall) as just .08" fell.
  15. Itstrainingtime
    Thunderstorm in progress here now. Lots of lightning and thunder.

    I'm going back down to Thursday's game.

    Drove through 2 separate deluges on our way home from Philly. Temp ranged from 74 up to 98. High at home today was 94.

    Next Wednesday looks sneaky hot - type of day where many could easily make a run at the upper 90s.
  19. Itstrainingtime
    Totally agree.

    I do know that the 7 day QPF map I posted last Sunday was valid until 7am tomorrow had my area just inside the quarter inch line. I'm at .25". Obviously this time of year there will be winners and losers with convection. From what I remember the overall maps this week were quite accurate. They consistently portrayed more rain up north and that happened. The lowest amounts were focused on your area and south.
  21. Itstrainingtime
    No one will convince me that they're as bad as snow maps.
  22. Itstrainingtime
    Temp down to 73. Still windy. And... .23" of wet goodness!
  23. Itstrainingtime
    Temp down to 82. Windy. Thunder. Dry.
  24. Itstrainingtime
    Let me try my luck - it never rains in Maytown. My guess is it won't rain here until October 10th with 47 days before that over 105 degrees.

    That 1-2 hour period between 1 and 2:30-3:00 probably shaved 2-3 degrees off their final high.
