86.6 at 2:53am

This should not be legal! I'm pretty sure that's even slightly warmer than last night

[NortheastPAWx]

82.9 still.

NWS has only forecasted 94 for tomorrow. If we start around 80...don't see how we're not 95 or better.

[Voyager]

78.6 here @ 5:00AM. Warmer than yesterday at this time.

[Voyager]

Map of yesterday's high temperatures for PA. Quite a large chunk of real estate topped the 100 degree mark.

[SmokeEater]

Seeing this for the 2nd day in a row, makes me want to break down and cry.

Today: A chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm. Mostly sunny and hot, with a high near 104. Heat index values as high as 114. West wind between 3 and 9 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

[dryslotted]

Just a few degrees cooler progged for here. Sitting at 86 right now at 8:10am...Going to try and wrap up any outdoor activities before 10am. Tried to sneak some stuff in yesterday around 1pm and the heat smacked me around a bit.

Today: A chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly after 2pm. Mostly sunny and hot, with a high near 102. Heat index values as high as 111. West wind between 6 and 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

[tombo82685]

if phl can hold off the clouds to the west over chester co they should do 100 easily... already 91, hotter than yesterday already at this time.

[NaoPos]

[NaoPos]

[NaoPos]

...NY/PA...

THE COVERAGE OF CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT APPEARS LIKELY TO DIMINISH

WITH EASTWARD EXTENT INTO PA/NY. WEAK UPPER FORCING OVER THIS AREA

SUGGESTS ONLY WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL FORM IN THIS

REGION. NEVERTHELESS...THE POTENTIAL WILL EXIST FOR A FEW SEVERE

AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE MAIN THREAT.

..HART/HURLBUT.. 07/23/2011

[BucksCO_PA]

Newark was 90 (+) from 8am yesterday to 3am this morning

20 consecutive hrs

[BucksCO_PA]

big break so far today, dewpoints down considerably from yesterday & currently mostly cloudy

see how it plays out the remainder of the day but so far much better

[Grothar]

Bingo- 100 degrees at 11:15 am. mertztown at 98

[Thunder Road]

hit 96.7 at 10:41am then got socked in with clouds...fell all the way down to 93-something. Rebounded now to 96.0/73 (although apparently Davis DPs are running too high)

[Sunny and Warm]

Bingo- 100 degrees at 11:15 am. mertztown at 98

The Mertztown station is VERY reliable for temps and rainfall, as I tested it against my system over the years. Only 1.25 miles from your house as the crow flies.

[Thunder Road]

amazing what a little sun can do

97.5/72

up 2 degrees in about 12 minutes

[ChescoWx]

Up to 95.1

DP 72.3

Record high for Chester County today is 98 set back in 1991...we might get close this PM if clouds remain at bay. The incredible dry ground should help some. Rain so far this month just a scant 0.29". Since May 24th only 2.03" (ouch!!)

[Parsley]

99.5 @1:20pm
