Another day in the fog down at the Jersey Shore in Sea Isle City with a 66.3/61.3 split and no measurable rain...brutal weather on the beaches...however - back in NW Chesco wife is complaining about the humidity and urge to fire up the AC...splits today in Chesco were 73.9/67.0 with 0.21" of rain in the gauge. Through today NW Chesco is at 2.16" of rain here in May which is 1.74" below normal...however YTD we are at 20.57" which is 1.68" above normal through May 28th vs. 1983-2019 averages. Looking like a good shot an our 2nd consecutive below normal month with May running at exactly 1.0 degrees below normal through today in Chester County.

Ended up with a high of 83 Wednesday and of 78 yesterday (due to the overcast tropical-ey conditions), with 0.09" rain.  Finally got chance to move the rest of my overwintering tropical/subtropical plants (including herb seedlings) outside.  Some of that should have been out a month ago but the April showers and May frosts were precluding that.

Currently 72 with dp 68 and overcast with mist.

Sun beginning to peek through here with low-level clouds burning up, SPC mesoanalysis shows SBCAPE already over 2000 J/kg and LI at -5. Lapse rates are poor, but hopefully we'll have enough lift from the pre-frontal trough to initiate strong convection. Plenty of fuel to be tapped for the first decent severe threat in quite awhile. I'd bet with the decently high PWAT values we see some decent downburst winds.

Yeah it's been training over that are for awhile now. :blink:

I topped off at 85 (so far) but it's down to 84 now but with a dp of 69 and some ominous clouds off to the west. :yikes:

Reached a 90F HI.  Currently 83/74.  At least we'll get some nice spring weather after today.  Not a fan of skipping right to this summer stuff.

Sun and Mon say no!

Yeah, the line is moving ultra slow...would like to see some downpours and wind. If I'm seeing correct the last couple frames it's dissipating a bit.

84F/ DP 71F
