Mitchell Gaines Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 96/77 imby. Damn those high Davis dew points. Dewpoints on Davis units can run a little high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowlurker Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Probably something like 88/66. A heat index of about 90 or 91. Whether it bothers them will depend partly on how acclimated they are to those conditions. If they spend a lot of time playing outside, then they ought to be OK. If they spend most time indoors in AC, then its gonna be an issue. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Road Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Dewpoints on Davis units can run a little high. Obviously. Nothing in the area supports 77. At school they always say to knock ~3 degrees F off the Kestrel dew point readings too. Is there a common problem with electronic moisture sensors?

ChescoWx Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Highest reading of the year for NW Chesco today with an 88.2 in the last hour - even the Wxsim sees some low 90's possibly starting here tomorrow - but I am not holding my breadth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman56 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Highest temperature of the year so far in NW Chesco - 88.0. As ground starts to bake out I think we touch 90 a couple times this week. Run of the mill July heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run of the mill July heat. Yes I would agree this nothing out of the ordinary for the hottest time of year. Only philly seems to break heat record which is nothing new for them!

Run of the mill July heat. I don't think this was advertised to be any kind of all-time, record breaking heatwave. It will likely be the hottest stretch of weather so far this summer, so that makes it worthy of some level of "hype". It seems to me that the high elevations of Chester county need big time heat to crack 90 degrees...usually need widespread 97+ temps at the lower elevations around Philly to accomplish that. Tomorrow/Thursday have the best chances...although it could possibly happen today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're wasting a lot of heat trying to evaporate the moisture out of the saturated ground. Last year had no trouble getting to the upper 90's when the ground was like a rock. The media seems to hype the heat every year - particularly with the recent annoying practice of numbering the heat waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Road Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I think we're wasting a lot of heat trying to evaporate the moisture out of the saturated ground. Certainly seems plausible that we're losing heat energy to latent heat processes, given that it's been so wet, and that operational models are overdoing the numbers because they're not accounting for the soil moisture. Note that I said "plausible" and left it at that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jims Videos Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Working outside in a live news truck all day near Hershey, I've gone through like 5 waters and haven't had to use the bathroom once. It's all sweat. Looking forward to Belmar beach Friday and Saturday! But hey it's July and I'd rather sweat than dress in layers and bundle up and have your fingers frozen trying to operate a camera.
