Maxwell03 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 November 3. Hopefully soon. In my opinion, nothing more fun than getting socked by a strong coastal gale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvantHiatus Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I'm calling BS, the noreaster is only 1020mb and cuts way inland with southeast winds. More like the first big rain of fall or summer for that matter. It has been dry as all get out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 12z ECM has .27" locally and around .75" in Philly. Don't think this is a bonafide noreaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 3" NAM VS .3" GFS in this area The disparity is outrageous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolute Humidity Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 My winds are out of the NE and it's about to rain. The pressure means squat because its relative to the massive high to north this the gradient is sharp despite having a week low. Feb 2003 and B of 96 had relatively high pressures and we all remember the results. This rainstorm is indeed a nor'easter. Red Sky you win.

Treckasec Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Wow, it's pretty cold outside. A couple big gusts as well. Wasn't expecting a nor'easter so quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Looking at radar estimates looks like over 0.50" both east and west of NW Chester County but just over 0.30" here so far - still way above normal rain for the date but has been a bit dry over the last couple months so - nice to see Currently Rain Temp 56.1 Wind NE - 3 to 5mph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noctilucent Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Chilly (57 degrees) and a gusty wind, mainly out of the ENE, but also becoming more variable as the low center approaches. We are just about to .50" of rain, much less than anticipated 24 hours ago. But, still much needed. Seems like it's weakening as it moves closer to us. There have been brief bursts of heavy rain, but it has been sporadic, with times when it was barely raining at all. As to whether this is a "bona fide" Nor'easter, I think it is. Not a very strong one, but it's affect on the surf and the wind and temperature profiles would tell me this is a "bona fide" Nor-easter. Someone raised the objection that storm was essentially inland slightly, but, based on Wikepedia FWIW: Sometimes a noreaster will move slightly inland and bring rain to the cities on the coastal plain (NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore,...etc.) I will leave it to the owner of the thread to decide whether RedSky wins, but I think he does.

RedSky Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I didn't want to win on a weak sauce faux nor'easter but it did get it's act together enough to be one. Tight coastal hugger this would have been rain in winter. .6" total so far Coldest day of the young fall season with current temp of 57F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtd208 Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Picked up 0.28" of rain so far today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Picked up 1.69" of rain. Puts the monthly total at 4.05". I guess the 3+ inches from the NAM didn't pan out. Wasn't expecting my prediction to be almost a month too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemwinder Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Only .42" so far. Looks like it will be < .5 at any rate. Another shot at rain if a coastal takes shape early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
