We have 1.33 inches so far this month, 1.6 inches from June 15th to today.

Just missed that pop up cell by 4 miles to the east this time.

lol thats nearly 3 inches of rain in a month...i work in wayne so i know. Its very dry and the down pours from thunderstorms do nothing besides fill the resevoirs and raise the rivers and creeks.

I actually meant 1.6 inches total since June 15th. Different places in Radnor Township have different totals, even just now the eastern part of the township picked up a quarter inch from that cell while we did not get a drop. Either way though we could use the rain lol.

It finally rained at my house, thanks to a shower that was north of all the main action. It was not much, but better than nothing.

Mike if you are working tonight, lightning strike to a house in Folsom, burned the garage completely up, along with a lot of the house. around 6:45ish. Note to self, fighting fire in a flooding severe storm, is not fun.

Thanks for the info. It looks like we have that listed in our LSR. The strong to severe convection this afternoon was more widespread and farther north than I was thinking. Looks like we had merging cells along with collisions with ouflow and sea breeze boundaries.

Ah yea, just noticed the LSR. Of course I was in Franklinville when the call went out. Ridiculous street flooding the whole way back to the firehouse. Had to do below 35 and try not to kill myself hydroplaning, lol.

Between inadequate air movement over the sensor and the fact you are driving continuously over a hot road surface, cars tend to run hot more often than not.

Car thermometers are generally pretty accurate at highway speeds, then get too warm at slower speeds for this reason.

Highs on Tuesday... I guess 98 at TTN isn't completely unreasonable, but it sure seems weird that my parents' sensor less than 2 miles away read 5 degrees cooler.

VAY 94

ILG 92

PTW 96

DYL 96

Lots of high temps in that list. I guess my 94 was pretty much accurate as well as the 96 I had on Monday.

Yeah, the 98 at PNE and 96 at DYL certainly would support the 98 at TTN. I'm extra cautious since I also saw a note that they're doing construction at the airport, though I'm not sure how close it is to the ASOS.

Something that I feel is a trend philly since 2005 (with the exception of 2009) has averaged in july nearly 2 degrees above the 1971-2000 norms which I believe is even well above the the 1981-2010 normals. It seems like hot summers are getting to be normal summers.

July 2007 was below normal on the 71-00 norms.

July normals are 78.1 on 81-10, 77.6 on 71-00.
