MAG5035 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Figured that it might be time to update the thread title haha. I can't believe this thread has stayed well under 1000 posts this long.. I started this back at the beginning of March with a snow map. At any rate hope everyone has had a good summer, I've been fairly busy and it's been relatively quiet summer on the severe weather front. The tropics are starting to look fairly interesting though. TS Hermine might be the first hurricane of any strength to strike the US mainland since 2012 (Sandy). As it moves up the coast, it may bring some rainfall associated with the system itself to primarily the southeast portion of PA. Don't think much will get deeper into PA than that, as tonight's frontal passage is coming through a bit quick to allow a more moisture laden track directly into C-PA.

Voyager Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 It may as well be a winter storm. The most aggressive model (the GFS) is a typical non-event for most of Central and NEPA. No different from the majority of winter storms over the past 5-8 years. Big SEPA and NYC hit and a South Jersey jackpot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 91 at MDT, 37th day over 90. Wed-Sat should all be 90+ so we'll be at 40+ days over 90. Average IIRC is 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 It looks like a "Lee" type rain band over central pa. Just started raining in Camp Hill. Crazy loud, rolling thunder and lightningSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 1"-3"+ from this 10mi wide band.

NortheastPAWx Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I believe AVP just had its 21st 90 degree day of the summer. Going to fall a few short of the 2005 record but quite a run of heat after having just one 90 through early-mid July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 We kind of got lucky and picked up a quarter inch of rain overnight. Not sure if there was any lightning involved with it, though, as I slept through whatever came through. That's the first appreciable rainfall so far for September as it's been ridiculously dry here since the beginning of the month. We only had 0.07" since the 1st. The past two night have featured temperatures holding into the low and mid 70's (74 and 72 respectively) which is pretty impressive, to me anyway, considering the fact that there is significantly more darkness time as we've lost about 2 hours of daytime heating with the earlier/later sunset/sunrise times.

canderson Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 94/101 currently. Broken record. Last day of 90+ I'd guess, big wind tomorrow with the front push then a cool down as the week goes on. Friday morning will see a lot of 40s in northern PA.

sauss06 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Heat doesn't normally bother me but it kicked my ass today. I was finishing up pavers on my sidewalk before taking in a fire call, i think i list 10 pounds from sweating in my gear. 3 Gatorades, 5 bottles of water and 2 Sam Adams I'm rehydrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 sauss, were you at tonight's fire in Lemoyne? For nonlocals, a lumber yard caught fire. It's MASSIVE - I can see flames 3 miles away on the other side of the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Got down to 49 F here yesterday. We may have another shot at 40s F for lows on Thursday night/Friday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went responding on dispatch with 10 firefighters. i could have bumped a younger member, but i don't do that. I stayed back to cover our other rigs with 8 other guys. Went to 3rd alarm and i think i total of 5 buildings destroyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
