Lady Di Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Huge downfall of living in an older unit is having to turn off my 220v -18000btu window unit as we only have 60 amp service here. Trying not to blow that when we’re getting intermittent surges. I turned it off. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's interesting is that the line is less than 8 miles from here and only now am starting to hear some faint rumbles of thunder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have one of those 220V behemoths at work (old building) before they put in the (useless) retro-fitted cooling towers & chillers (that were totally unbalanced). Temp here is 89 and it is getting dark already. That line looks like it means business! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been moving pretty slowly (in a relative sense) which could prolong the rain amounts (have been shifting between 2 laptops with the 2 GR programs).

Newman Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 So much lightning and flooding rain in that line. Not much wind where I was but still a good storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Wow. Was just outside. That's a fierce looking storm. Getting the winds right now. Temp still 88. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Gust front is coming through. Looks like the heavier cells broke up as they hit the hills around here. Temp is down to 87. Rain is on the doorstep. Getting lightning but not hearing thunder yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Decent looking shelf on the outflow. Probably had close to a 40 MPH gust (station only measured 25 about a mile away.) Very little lightning. Dropped the temp and dew significantly, so there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Well dang. It broke up right over me. Still getting impressive lighting occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Still haven't gotten the rain yet but still breezy and just had some thunder. Am in the green hole that formed between yellow/red blobs... Mt. Holly just threw up a warning just as I was about to post. Temp is down to 85. ETA - am getting some rain droplets but nothing measurable yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 This is how it looked right before I sat down to dinner, about an hour ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChasingFlakes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Storm that never ends, it's been 45 mins since the gust front and it's still lightning and raining. Heard some really loud thunder that shook the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtd208 Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 High for the day was 97 here. Current temp 84/DP 73/RH 70% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Still no measurable rain here. It sortof scooted around us here where I am in NW Philly. The temp is down to 80 but the dews are still in the low 70s so what moisture did fall from the sky is keeping it juiced up. Still getting occasional thunder and lightning. ETA - finally got enough to tip the bucket to 0.01" & temp down to 78. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Temp down to 73. Dew down to 71. 0.09" of rain. Storm looked mean as hell before it hit like a feather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Have finally been getting some steady rain. It's light (am up to 0.08" so far) but at least it's cooling the hot pavements and asphalt. The temp is down to 75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Wow that was a crazy storm. Driving back to Allaire from Brielle and it was like the movies twister. Debris flying past from what seemed every direction. Trees falling....large branches flying....lightning was insane. The entire way through Wall there were explosions from transformers popping. The blue green light was blinding. The rain forced me to stop a few times due to visibility, but standing still was also not a good option. There was no power on until we crossed over the GSP.....and no sooner we saw a few more blue flashes close by which made it all dark. Finally home....our small area still has power. Everything around the hill is dark. Strange. Been some time since I was caught driving in severe storms. It is exhilarating.
