famartin Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 #2 hottest May for Philly Is it just me or has this been a relatively comfortable second hottest May ever. Not even one 90F day bizzare Its not the first in the top 10 to be without 90-degree days, but it is the warmest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treckasec Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 #2 hottest May for Philly Is it just me or has this been a relatively comfortable second hottest May ever. Not even one 90F day bizzare Eh, I wouldn't think so. I got a heat index of around 95 at times this week and I could feel the sun beating down on me. And being outside has caused me to sweat after a little while most of the days this month. Also, little to no rain relief. Though, no 90 degree days is pretty surprising.

Birds~69 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Not sure if anyone is working outside but damn I'm sweating like Robert Hayes from"Airplane". Dewpoint in the 70-71 range... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear pulled over the large recycle can this morning, boy was he disappointed Yup, slow storm motions and really high PW values Sunday night into Tuesday means someone is going to get quite a bit of rain.

I won't be too surprised if the cells avoid my area like the plague and weaken tremendously if they get over my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Here in NW Chesco we have had only 0.61" of rain so far for the month of May - we are 3.73" below our normal May precip of 4.34" for the YTD we stand at just 14.81" or 78% of normal of 18.99". This May appears to be going into the books as the 2nd driest May on record behind only 1964 when just 0.14" of rain fell here in the county. The Wxsim program does spit out around 0.50" by this evening and 2.37" be tomorrow PM.....but I am also in the camp of dry begets dry and will be thrilled if we can just get 1.00" over the next couple days. The lawns and farmers in the county are not happy campers, Top 5 driest in Chester County are below: 1964 - 0.14" 2015 - 0.61" 1939 - 1.11" 2005 -1.19" 1905 - 1.19" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Looking like the entire area is getting nothing besides north and west today. Even my condo complex that hires landscapers can't save our grass, half of it is brown already despite the inch of rain last week. The problem is most of it just ran off and little got absorbed In the ground due to the quick nature of the storms. My parents yard is practically burned out in Levittown already. Hopefully the rain tomorrow and Tuesday actually happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Nothing here yet today but the radar is starting to get pretty busy, especially north of the PA turnpike. Nice line to the west also. Spent most of the day working outside, the high here was 89F, and so humid. Edit - something popping up just to the SW of here, and hearing thunder.
