Of interest of the 31 NWS/FAA sites across the Tri-State area of PA/NJ/DE only 12 sites or 39% of all such stations reported a heat wave with the last 3 days exceeding the 90 degree mark. While 13 sites saw 2 days over 90; 3 sites saw only 1 day over 90 and of course the old chilly standbys of Mount Pocono; Chester County Airport and East Nantmeal Township saw no such days. If it wasn't for the local news only using PHL airport would a report of a heat wave in the philly area constitute fake news? The heat here hasn't been fake, and I don't live at the airport, nom sayn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading has reported 88, 92, 90 the past 3 days. The dews have definitely been lower than they were back during the heat of July however. Instead of high 70s dews, we got high 60s dews.

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 The 92 did end up being my high yesterday here in NW Philly. It briefly dropped down to 84 as the storms moved south of me towards Jersey (had no rain here but heard that Manyunk got slammed), but then the temp recovered back up to 89 about an hour or so later. The dews did drop down into the upper 60s (from the low 70s). What was cool was the red sunset to remind me of RedSky (who was apparently getting nailed). Currently 84 and sunny with a few wispy cirrus here and there. As a sidenote - ever since last week, there have been almost non-stop cicadas going - from dawn to dusk. It's been pretty jarring to say the least (at least in terms of the continuous droning of them). The brood X that had hatched this year are way over in western PA but I'm guessing these are some 13-year type (not the red-eyed ones) that happened to be prolific this year. I've been seeing an increased number of them flying around too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But was it really a heat wave (3 straight days of 90+) ? It certainly could be at your location....but for the majority of the area it has not...just sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently 91 here and this is my 3rd 90+ reading. Lots of cumulus out there though so that has been a factor for keeping it from ramping up even higher I think.

Also had a brief shower this morning around 3:30 am giving me 0.01" but also making it real soupy out. Currently 79 and party sunny with lots of cirrus.

Went out to plum island on my Uncle's boat via the Merricmack last fri. Then up to Stowe, Vt to camp saturday and then downhill mtb bike at sugarbush sunday,, which was so sick. . Then chilled in Mass mon with family and then I went solo down to Rhode island to camp and surf/skimboard tuesday and wed night. Just got home, surfed at Naragasett this morning! It stormed 2/3 nights I camped, the night in Stowe i set the tent up in the dark during a thunderstorm and last night a really heavy storm rolled through RI but I was luckily not in the tent at the time. I've never seen so many bugs than at burlingame state park campgrounds in Southern RI, it was insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
