LMolineuxLM1 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 it would be interesting to note when everything moved out. I could see if we had rain till like 9 then had several hours for the atmosphere to recharge. But most of the areas around here didnt stopp raining till after 113o or 12. Also, we really arent getting full bore sunshine it more or less just broken clouds with some peaks. It has been mostly sunny since about 12 to 12:30 where i was in ardmore and here its still sunny. We still i guess have a shot small at that but i'll take what i can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still i guess have a shot small at that but i'll take what i can. the sun is out better now, but around 12 is was not full sunshine, we had breaks in the clouds which allowed the sun to come out. You can see from the vis satellite loop their have been a lot of clouds around. http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~gadomski/SAT_PA/anim8vis.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMolineuxLM1 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 yes i noticed with stuff still trying to form in and around the delaware river south of us riding into NJ. I could clearly see that cell or rain shower forming off to the left while driving home along the blue route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike2010 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I saw on one of the high res models , what looked like a possible MCS for us tonight. Starting out where that cell in western MD currently is. will be interesting to see how it pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombo82685 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 seems like that stuff in south central pa is being driven by some good shear in the 35-45 kt range....instability is pretty low around the region Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslotted Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Well round 2 was an epic failure and yawn. Thankfully we got heavy rains this morning. yeah, tombo called bs on it earlier this afternoon and was absolutely correct...wound up with 0.83 here. seemed like it would be more given how hard it poured for a time...looking forward to a stretch of sub-90 highs, at least for a little while...

You guys are acting like we're going to see clear skies from here on out. Granted I highly doubt we see severe, but, there's chances of garden variety stuff through tomorrow.

Parsley Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Ended up with 0.55" for the day here. Nice afternoon/evening for the most part. The weak tornado on Long Island today missed my parents house by roughly a mile. I was just home visiting Tuesday-Wednesday too. Bummer I missed all the fun.

I was more comparing it to the way spc framed their discussion this morning of this being a two part event for today. I also got caught up I thinking that all the afternoon sun here was going to fuel something decent in the late afternoon or evening, but nothing wound up firing...

Voyager Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Halfway decent line forming back by Chambersburg and Carlisle. Let's see if it holds. I might actually get something from that one as it's headed northeast into Schuylkill County at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormspotterlive Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Looks Like 2 distinct wild cards setting up for early am and tomorrow. First of all would be it appears the front is now slow down if not stalling as convection to the southwest is riding northeast along with moisture increasing at different levels of the atmosphere. also it is starting to spread more north northeast towards the area. Could pose a threat in the am as a disturbance is developing along the coast spreading northward. That we will just have to wait and see what happens. The second wild card comes tomorrow afternoon as the front may still be in the area or just west of the city due to the slow to stalled movement models have been hinting at yet another disturbance this time a bit stronger riding up the coast with more convective activity moving into the area. 00z High restitution Nam took this to the next level and has strong training producing 1-3 inches of rain in localized areas. Here is the H5 of the High resloution Nam for tomorrow afternoon which clearly shows energy riding along the front which would be the trigger for training storms most likely non severe. Now here is sim radar for tomorrow evening showing the strong training with this disturbance/ energy. Not 100% sold just yet but it will defiantly be worth watching as this front is going to be slow to clear. A lot of times in august we see wildcard bands with slow moving fronts like this.

dryslotted Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 looks like showers for eastern jersey this morning, but 6z hr nam keeps things interesting for this afternoon/evening. Doesn't look as intense as it did at 0z, but still there... see text from around 1am... ...MID-ATLANTIC/NEW ENGLAND AREA... TSTMS ARE EXPECTED IN THE VERY MOIST AIR MASS IN ADVANCE OF THE COLD FRONT SAT AS FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH LIFTS NEWD ACROSS THE MID-ATLANTIC/NEW ENGLAND COASTAL AREAS. DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS ONCE AGAIN MORE THAN ADEQUATE FOR ORGANIZED TSTMS FROM THE MID-ATLANTIC NWD...BUT POOR LAPSE RATES AND WIDESPREAD CLOUDINESS WILL RESULT IN GENERALLY WEAK INSTABILITY. TSTMS DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE ISOLATED STG WIND GUSTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormspotterlive Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 12z gives both sides of the river heavy rainfall this evening/tonight... Convection firing up in the Carolina's moving north northeast. I suppose that is the wild card convection for this evening and tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazwoper Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Just drove to the Deauville Inn in Strahmere. I have never seen flooding so bad in OC. Multiple areas along West Ave down the southend completely flooded over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximum lawman Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 There was some discussion over in our sub forum about this. Apparently a lot of the big outbreaks have had heavy rainfall in the morning. Not saying this will happen here but it's worth noting. One event I remember is June 2008 for the DC folks like me - we had showers and storms in the morning (even a few rounds maybe) and then a massive derecho type thing in the afternoon). I was at the ballpark for that one. I made a run for the car which was a big mistake. Scary. Getting a nice storm here now, absolutely torrential downpours.

cast4 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Got split again in Wayne. It seems like the only time we get hit is with a solid West to east moving squall line. I don't think we have had a pop up storm all year. Looks like almost 1.5" so far from Caln to Uwchlan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
