Sounds like a lot of damage from that storm this morning in Harrisburg.

Thank you for not using the image of the index card game. I would have had to come throw you through a window lol

That sounds like a penalty to me.

I had 1.8" last evening and it had not rained much until this AM.   The storm went WAAAAAAAY west of me....dry slotted in some manner.   I am fine with what I have.  I scored big in the pregame with the 1.8". 

It's good to have you back in the game!

Just now, Bubbler86 said:

It is pouring.  Looking at around 2.5" event total now.    It did not rain at all after last evening...until now. 

You must live in some restricted rain zone controlled by DT or the government. Your only allowed to get precipitation when they say. I thought you'd have more till morning.

1.09 rain since yesterday.

Creek hasn't risen very much.

I'm still on the outside looking in... 

Bring your tanker down here, I'm sure you'll be able to fill it up.

I see they expended the Flood watch. To put some counties on the east side of the Susquehanna River.

He denied me water per his post.  He was hoarding and said something about "us skooks need to take care of skooks first"

I'm disappointed. I was looking forward to Voyager doing a video of him opening that back valve on the tanker and emptying the entire tanker of 8000 gallons of water in your yard.

9 minutes ago, Bubbler86 said:

Yes, it has been a soaker.  Counting last evening there has been around 1.2".   Ninja watering may be done for the year if the GFS/GEFS has any clue about much of the rest of August.   A lot of rain and little in the way of heat. 

.02 here yesterday. Glad your getting rain. I hope it's not too late to cancel your Voyager delivery of water.

29 minutes ago, Bubbler86 said:

About .6-.65. 

Sounds like you'll need a load or two of water from Voyager to catch up to almost everyone else.

My creek this morning, not bad. So the Mahantango Creek watershed area east of me didn't get the rain I got last evening. But it's muddy nonetheless.

Most recent instantaneous value: 2.57 08-07-2024   06:00 EDT

1.56 rain yesterday

1.93 for the month

6.05 rain the last 30 days

31.65 rain for the year* but my internet was down for a few days in May so i'm missing about .50

Are we gonna get what's in western PA. Or will that fall apart till it gets to the Susquehanna Valley?

My rain rate was 4.51 in hr. In that thunderstorm. 1.25 fell. Currently up to 1.41 for the day.

My rain rate was a bit ago 4.51 in hr.

That's headed my way!

Had .15 rain earlier. Then sun came out with a dewpoint of 80.

Is it me, or are some of the models trending a little higher on precipitation?

From Walt Drag in the NYC forum. If any of this even comes true, and I'm not sure of the timing of Debby's remnants, it's going to be ugly for some folks. The fact that Drag kind of agrees with this scenario ( highly respect his met skills) speaks volumes to the potential magnitude of this event...

 

2011 in September had a similar set up before Lee came . We were in a drought and we had thunderstorms roll through  that dumped over 2 in. of rain. WE were at Kipona in Harrisburg to see the fireworks. Well you could see the lightning in the distance that seemed to be nonstop. Harrisburg said they will start the fireworks early because some of those storms were severe with heavy rain. On the way home we got caught in those storms in Dauphin. It was very hard to see driving with the intense rain coming down. I remember the creek was very low at that time. I remember the creek was high the day after those thunderstorms rolled through then a few days later Lee rolled in...the rest is history. So I wonder if the same thing will happen again. I hope not but anything is possible.

I just woke up, but I finally, just NOW, saw what you did there... 

She'd have made a great 'cane to do the Gulf up into Texas, that track to the metroplex. The innuendos would have been off the charts.

It took you awhile!
