Here I'm seeing 20% and 30% POPs from tonight through Friday night with the exception of tomorrow which is 40%, so we should get some rain here, lol. Unless that system only works up your way....

Good eye Kamu, an adequate shower is a near certainty in that case lol

Matter of fact i just might pull it off this evening

The shower with the 5 mile wide flood watch near NE Philly is just hanging out with nothing to do and nowhere to go, finishing off a 6 pack

 

A very slight sea breeze front is approaching the Philly cell it might just bump it west, this is like billiards weather this evening.

I was out and about around Cheltenham and it's been thundering and lightning for the past hour with no rain.  It finally started raining about 10 minutes ago just before I got home.  The humidity and haze later this morning was awful so I knew something had to give. One sis in Delco said it was insane with the thunder/lightning and pouring down there.

A small popup thunderstorm literally just popped up over my house. Is it affecting you @KamuSnow.

It was just east of here, did get some rain for about 10 minutes (about 0.10"), then part of it pulled away to the east, another part settled down into northern Delaware, where they must be getting dumped on. Lots of lightning and thunder. Love these pop-up storms in the middle of the day, kind of tropical feeling. Although it cooled down nicely - 71F now!

No rain yet, plenty of thunder and gusty winds though. Temp went from a high of 87F (probably would have hit 90F with full sun today) to 77F currently.

It seemed that whatever pop ups had been moving east and on our doorsteps, suddenly pulled back and consolidated into a line further west. The main Montco line has backed into Northern Montco now.  I had a brief period of some light rain enough to get a couple hundredths of an inch more but am back to overcast.
