blackhound Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 5.5 inches of rain so far. Wind is gusting. My wind gauge registered a 50mph gust. Power just went out. Sounded like a transformer boom in the distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I currently have light rain and am at 4.84" and 71. I saw a flood warning issued for the Perkiomen Creek but I expect the Wissahickon may be out of its banks since it is normally less than 2.5 ft and it is now over 7 ft as of the noon report. The Schuylkill is getting close to 10 ft (also per the noon report) and starts minor flooding at around 11 ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Rain has mostly let up here, getting a little sun at times now, but the winds have been really cranking here from the WSW. Don't know the speed but our neighbor had a pretty large tree blow over, roots and all. The top of it is up against his house, but not enough to do any serious damage, from the looks of it. Strongest winds of the storm by far. Total rainfall here is 6.40", probably close to the final total. Pretty good storm when all is said and done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Di Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Here too Kamu. Higher gusts were on the back side. I opened some windows so hoping the sun won’t come out. The breeze feels good at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a lot of water upstream yet for the Schuykill...might take until tomorrow for it to max out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup that was the concern - particularly if the Wissahickon is adding to whatever is coming downstream from Montco. I am sure the feeders to the Wissachickon like the Cresheim Creek, are flooded. Am currently up to 4.92" but the winds have kicked in big time and temp is down to 70. I popped out and it wasn't soupy. I did accidently interrupt a hummingbird out at my feeder trying to get a drink. EDIT - Mt. Holly just declared a Flood Warning for flooding of the Schuylkill at Pottstown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
