LVLion77

There are parts of the Alburtis postal code that sit up on the mountain there. I am very close to Alburtis and only halfway up that ridge and got around 3/4 of an inch. The ridge is high enough that during very marginal events you can see the snow line about halfway up if you’re looking at it from Rt 100. .

0.65” before the changeover to Snow here. We actually have a little less than 3/4” snow on nonpaved surfaces. .

It is interesting how this batch of precipitation hits a wall as it comes north and disintegrates. There has been minimal action in the Lehigh Valley and nothing points north. The northern LV and southern Poconos have seen very minimal rain in recent events.

Yes, that was the most rain i had in several months. We were very fortunate to be in the that band. I was literally in the center of it and had prolonged heavy rain. That band did not quite make it north of the 22 corridor. .

I ended up with 1.71” last night in the heavy showers and t-storm band but the ABE airport only had 0.18”. That was a sharp cut off! The northern Lehigh Valley certainly has gotten screwed over the last couple weeks, but I feel fortunate to get in the action last night. Only 45F this morning with some drizzle. .

You will need an ark soon! .

We bitched enough that mother nature gave in! Nice shower. Possibly more on the way. .

It has been frustrating lately. I think it’s a combo of that stable easterly flow off the cold Atlantic ruining our precip dynamics on days like today and bad luck where the lines setup when the flow turns around to the southwest. .

The Philly region has been doing much better than the Lehigh Valley with rain. I only got 0.18 this am, and the airport, a bit further north, only got a few hundredths of an inch. The northern LV in general has seen very little rain, even earlier in the week.

43 F and a cold rain from this line of showers. Less than 1/10 of an inch of rain but it still feels like bonus rain. .

It’s amazing how the lawns greened up and the trees budded overnight. .

I am a few miles south of you and I am at 1.12” as this winds down, maybe with luck i hit 1.20”. During the worst of it the first line slightly split around me, which was my limiting factor. The airport is at 1.5” and likely hits 1.75” in the next update. If I had to guess I would say Emmaus to Coopersburg got close to 2”. Overall I am happy. Not a drought buster but we did well. .

True! Closest lighting strikes in a few years as well. And an actual round 2 forming. .

Nice tstorm here with heavy rain sw lehigh county. 0.29” has come down in buckets in a short time with a lot more to come. .

It is rather interesting to see it unfold. I I now have hope. Probably helped big time that we had some late afternoon sun to help destabilize things. .
