MAG5035 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Gotta say, for an area like ours that really needs rain, that radar isn't encouraging. Yea, its like our area has been in a bubble all afternoon. We'll have to see if we can get some stuff to fire as the afternoon wears on but right now it seems we lost out on the main show with the line of storms that developed further southeast.

What to do you think about rain chance next few days? NAM moves the axis of heaviest rain around a good bit. Now north of us. I still think most of us sees at least .75 by Saturday am.

PennMan Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 0.69" today! That's over twice what we've gotten the whole month! Nice. About 20 drops here in Bellefonte today. I'm not sure we've even cracked 0.20" for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Nice. About 20 drops here in Bellefonte today. I'm not sure we've even cracked 0.20" for the month. I have to say, if we don't get rain tomorrow and Friday, that's on helluva epic model bust. Have you looked at the NAM/GFS/Euro? All showing around an inch or so (or more depending on the run). The SREF about the same. We miss that and it would be like a forecast of a foot of snow and we get flurries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r-ville Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Mammatus (I think) overhead right now as the storm approaches Definite classic Mam's there - thanks for that peek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r-ville Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Rain gauge showing just under 2 inches here. Some great ponding in the ditches IMBY. *scratch that I forgot to move it back after mowing the weeds yesterday. Got some runoff from the gutters. Despite your face palm - you may not have been too (two?) far off - my hyper accurate (LOL) rain gauge showed I got 1.25". But again, so much run off that is not really as much relief as it would seem. Bet I can dig 1" dirt and hit dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r-ville Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Looking at storm reports via Wunderground. Peter's Mtn reported hail, my buddy in Dauphin was laying a block wall and just told me he got "light drizzle" - I got 1.25" of crazily wind driven down pours and freq. c-g lightning (4 miles south in Hbg where I work was the same). All are basically in a line north south along the river. Each with differing results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, so much run off that is not really as much relief as it would seem. Bet I can dig 1" dirt and hit dust. That's why I have my vegetable garden in rows with a ditch in between each, which the Chinese invented 3000 years ago while everyone else was scattering seed and feeding the birds. In my veggie garden the water can't escape. Hopefully we get more than the .06 we got today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 CTP's radar is down, apparently. So's the HRRR. I follow rain in dry periods like this with more intensity than I do snow, so this is kiling me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Tomorrow night and Friday continue to look like the exact kind of soaking rainfall we all need to curb the advancement of the low stage (D0-D1) drought levels into western/central PA in recent weeks. It looks like at least a pretty decent chance of a general inch or so for most of us. NAM continues to be very wet.. the 0z focuses the heaviest QPF on PSUHazelton and NE PA (3-5" thru 60hrs) with a widespread 1.5-2" across most of the rest of central and eastern PA. I still think the high ends probably overdone a bit, but we def have the pieces available for a pretty heavy rainfall in the form of a near stationary frontal boundary, a fairly decent shortwave, and a forecast anomalous easterly flow coming off the Atlantic.
