  1. Tropical always outperforms the radar it seems. I still think we’ll get close to 2” when all is said and done, just don’t foresee any real flooding issues.
  2. Low of 73 with a meager .18” of rainfall. Nothing on the horizon either. Got to hand it to the Mesos on this one. We should get a couple downpours when it pulls through later this morning or this afternoon but no real flooding concerns over this way. Happy for all the big winners to my west, assuming no wet basements ha.
  3. Just goes to show how hard this stuff is to predict and how there are always surprises. I don’t think anyone out that way was expecting anything that vigorous this early.
  4. I don’t believe it’s being made public, which absolutely stinks if true.
  5. It’s out and it’s east. Biggest totals over eastern Cumberland, Dauphin, and Lebanon.
  6. Multiple rounds pointed right at Bubbler. He may be over an inch before Friday even hits. #Firehose
  7. Yes I've been feeling this for days, just didn't want to dampen the mood ha. Also, it may only pertain to us in the far eastern sections of the valley. Been of the mind that it could just be an on/off showery kind of day with some embedded spinners and brief downpours and then a squall line that sweeps through later in the day, but I don't think we get in on much of the main slug of moisture associated with the heart of the low. I'm fine with however things play out. Let the chips fall where they may!
  8. In terms of max totals, if I could be anywhere for this storm, put me on top of Seven Mountains outside of State College.
  9. Low of 66 with .08" of rainfall. More importantly, all three American wrestlers who are competing in Paris today have advanced to the semifinals. Let's goooooo!!!
  10. Whoa whoa whoa Training, now you've gone too far. Let's reign it in a bit.
  11. They pissed me off when they stopped serving the UTZ medley chips with their sandwiches.
  12. At range, the HRRR and 3k NAM are both in the "keep the bulk of the precip west" camp.......
  13. I remember it well. I left work early that day and when I got off the train in Mount Joy I went to Isaac's for lunch. I recall watching the deluge hit as I finished up my "insert funny bird name" sandwich and thinking that I needed to get the heck out of dodge. I just made it home before things got crazy, with Main Street flooding and all the car rescues and whatnot. I got "only" 4.45" from that event, but that August is my wettest month on record, with a gaudy 17.79". I had three separate events where I got at least 4" during that month -- madness!
  14. I randomly checked a WU station near Willow Street and it just so happened to show exactly 5.91" for yesterday. I found you Superstorm! In any case, that station got an inch of rainfall in 10 minutes at one point -- extremely impressive. My heaviest period yesterday took 20 minutes to get an inch.
  15. The radar is insane right now. Just line after line. Going to be some big totals come morning.
  16. Getting throttled over here. Over an inch already. Gutters couldn’t do their job ha.
  17. Just under .2” here from this afternoon’s storms. Some real deal action on the way for tonight.
  18. I'm starting to get mini-Lee vibes with this. Obviously not nearly as bad because, well, that was just such an anomalous event but also because it should be through here fairly quickly. But man, things could get interesting around here come Friday through Friday night, especially if some of those N-S bands end up orientated over the same locations. Time to make sure all those gutters are flowing smoothly boys! Also, and most importantly, national high of 123 at Death Valley and Tecopa, CA and low of 34 at Isabella, MN. Carry on.
  19. Low of 75. And so begins our wild week of weather. Happy tracking, all.
  20. I got 23" from that bad boy, and yet, much less than many others.
  21. Low of 69 with .01" from a tiny little storm that rolled through yesterday afternoon. I wasn't home but my wife said it dumped for about one minute and then abruptly ended. She would know about such things @canderson it appears Debby may throw a wrench into your hottest August of all-time plans. It actually had me checking the record books for lowest max temps later in the week. I believe Wed - Fri were all 68, probably a bridge too far. Things could go in all types of directions with this storm but it appears we should be in for some bountiful rains at some point. Hope the flooding isn't too bad down south. The dreaded pink dot has appeared on the WPC map that @Itstrainingtime posted. Busy week ahead.
