Meteorolgically-speaking, this year has definitely been one with extremes. And we haven't even gotten to the peak of hurricane season yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT TRACKED NEARLY PARALLEL TO SOUTH STATE STREET THROUGH ANNEVILLE, THE SOUTH SIDE OF DOVER, WHERE SIGNIFICANT TREE DAMAGE OCCURRED, INCLUDING SOME TREETOPS SHREDDED FROM POPLAR LANE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND STEELE ROAD. IT WAS HERE WHERE SOME ROOF DAMAGE OCCURRED TO SOME HOMES ESPECIALLY DUE TO FALLEN TREES, HOWEVER A GARAGE WAS SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED ON DYERS TREE FARM. THE TORNADO THEN CROSSED OVER ROUTE 13 NEAR THE EDEN MEDICAL CENTER AND VERY NEAR THE WILLIAM HENRY MIDDLE SCHOOL. A COUPLE SECTIONS OF THE SCHOOLS ROOF WERE BLOWN OFF ALONG WITH SOME TREE DAMAGE NEARBY. A WAREHOUSE ADJACENT TO THE SCHOOL HAD A FEW SECTIONS OF ITS METAL WALLS TORN OFF AND A COUPLE OF TRACTOR TRAILER TRAILERS FLIPPED ONTO THEIR SIDE. THE TORNADO THEN CROSSED OVER WALKER ROAD AT ROUTE 15 THEN TO WESTMINSTER VILLAGE AT DOVER NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF ROUTE 15 AND COLLEGE ROAD. THE TORNADO THEN TRACKED NORTHWARD JUST EAST OF CHESWOLD WHERE THE DAMAGE MAY HAVE BEEN MORE SPORADIC BEFORE MOVING THROUGH THE EAST SIDE OF SMYRNA WHERE MORE NOTABLE TREE DAMAGE OCCURRED. A 96 MPH WIND GUST WAS MEASURED AT A DELAWARE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION WEATHER STATION LOCATED ON ROUTE 1 JUST NORTH OF SMYRNA AS THE TORNADIC CIRCULATION PASSED BY. FROM HERE, THE TORNADO CONTINUED NEARLY PARALLEL TO ROUTES 1 AND 13 ON THE EAST SIDES OF TOWNSEND AND MIDDLETOWN IN NEW CASTLE COUNTY. NUMEROUS TREES WERE SNAPPED OR UPROOTED ALONG PORTIONS OF BLACKBIRD LANDING ROAD AND GUM BUSH ROAD IN TOWNSEND WITH SOME DAMAGE TO ROOFS. A GARAGE AT A RESIDENCE ON BLACKBIRD LANDING ROAD WAS DESTROYED. THE TORNADO THEN DAMAGED HOMES IN MIDDLETOWN ALONG SPRING HOLLOW DRIVE. IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, SOME HOMES HAD ROOF MATERIAL AND SIDING BLOWN OFF WITH NUMEROUS TREES UPROOTED. SEVERAL GARAGE DOORS WERE BLOWN OUT. ONE HOME HAD AN ENTIRE SIDE WALL BLOWN OUT, ALTHOUGH CONSTRUCTION APPEARED TO BE POOR. ONE PICTURE SHOWED A HOME WITH A MISSING EXTERIOR CORNER WALL ON THE SECOND STORY. THE TORNADO MAY HAVE STARTED TO DISSIPATE BETWEEN MOUNT PLEASANT AND GLASGOW IN NEW CASTLE COUNTY, HOWEVER IT IS POSSIBLE THE TORNADO TRACK EXTENDED INTO CECIL COUNTY, MARYLAND. DOPPLER RADAR DATA SHOWED A CONTINUOUS AND WELL DEFINED ROTATIONAL SIGNATURE AND A TORNADO DEBRIS SIGNATURE. SPECIAL THANKS IS EXTENDED TO KENT COUNTY AND NEW CASTLE COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, TRAINED SPOTTERS, AND THE PUBLIC FOR THEIR EXTENSIVE ASSISTANCE WITH THIS SURVEY. 1 NNE STRATHMERE CAPE MAY 4/1345 EF1 - 39.21 -74.65 A WATERSPOUT CAME ASHORE NEAR THE SOUTHERN END OF CORSONS INLET STATE PARK NEAR STRATHMERE THEN ACROSS MARSHY AREAS. THE TORNADO THEN CROSSED THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY THEN TRACKED ALONG ROUTE 9 ACROSS THE SOUTH SIDE OF MARMORA. THERE WERE SEVERAL PICTURES AND VIDEOS OF THE WATERSPOUT AND TORNADO INCLUDING A TRAINED SPOTTER REPORTING A TORNADO ON THE GROUND WITH DEBRIS IN THE AIR. THE TORNADO PRODUCED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO HOMES AND BUSINESSES ON THE 500 BLOCK OF ROUTE 9, STARTING IN THE VICINITY OF A COCA COLA FACILITY WHERE CONTAINERS WERE TOSSED AROUND WITH EVEN A TRUCK TRAILER FLIPPED ONTO ITS SIDE. ADJACENT TO THE COCA COLA FACILITY, A LARGE SHED AT A RESIDENCE WAS UPENDED AND VEHICLES WERE MOVED FROM THEIR ORIGINAL LOCATIONS. SEVERAL HOMES HAD PORTIONS OF THEIR ROOFS BLOWN OFF WITH A COUPLE OF HOMES SUSTAINING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO A SIDE WALL OR CORNER WALLS. THE TORNADO CROSSED ROUTE 9 TO THE PINE HILL MOBILE HOME COURT WHERE SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE OCCURRED TO TREES AND BUILDINGS. ONE HOME WAS SHIFTED OFF ITS FOUNDATION AND OTHERS HAD ROOF DAMAGE AND DOWNED TREES CRUSHED SEVERAL CARS. THE TORNADO TRACKED NORTH NORTHWEST CROSSING TUCKAHOE ROAD AND MAY HAVE DISSIPATED OVER THE ADJACENT MARSH AREAS. DOPPLER RADAR DATA SHOWED A WELL DEFINED TORNADO DEBRIS SIGNATURE AS THE TORNADO MOVED THROUGH PORTIONS OF MARMORA. SPECIAL THANKS IS EXTENDED TO CAPE MAY COUNTY, TRAINED SPOTTERS, AND THE LOCAL MEDIA FOR THEIR HELP IN THIS SURVEY. 1 NNE EAST NORRITON MONTGOMERY 4/1444 EF0 - 40.16 -75.33 AN EF0 TORNADO OCCURRED IN WORCESTER TOWNSHIP IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA AS TROPICAL STORM ISAIAS MOVED NORTHWARD ALONG THE EAST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES. WITH SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA BEING IN THE NORTHEASTWARD, RIGHT FRONT QUADRANT, THE TORNADO AND PARENT STORM MOVED IN AN UNUSUAL NORTHWESTWARD TRAJECTORY AHEAD OF THE MAIN CENTER OF THE TROPICAL STORM. AN AREA OF CIRCULATION TIGHTENED IN A STRONG CELL WITHIN A RAINBAND IN SOUTHEASTERN MONTGOMERY COUNTY. AS THIS CIRCULATION TIGHTENED, A BRIEF TORNADO FORMED NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF BRINDLE COURT AND TOWNSHIP LINE ROAD IN WORCESTER TOWNSHIP, WHERE A FEW SMALL TREES WERE DOWNED IN A SMALL RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION. FROM HERE, THE TORNADO CONTINUED ITS NORTHWESTWARD TRAJECTORY THROUGH THE TOWNSHIP, DOWNING TREES ALONG POTSHOP ROAD. THE CIRCULATION MAY HAVE LIFTED WITH THE PATH BEING SOMEWHAT DISCONTINUOUS. A SOMEWHAT DENSER AREA OF TREES WERE DOWNED AS THE TORNADO MOVED ACROSS VALLEY FORGE ROAD AND NORTHWESTWARD ALONG HEEBNER ROAD. SEVERAL TREE TOPS WERE SHEARED OFF IN ADDITION TO SEVERAL UTILITY POLES BEING PUSHED OVER ALONG HEEBNER ROAD NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF SHEFLEY LANE. THE TORNADO CONTINUED NORTHWEST FROM HERE, EVENTUALLY DOWNING SEVERAL HARDWOOD TREES ALONG HOLLOW ROAD. ONE TREE BROUGHT DOWN SEVERAL UTILITY LINES AS IT FELL. FROM HERE, THE TORNADO LIFTED WITH ONLY A FEW OTHER TREES BEING DOWNED A LITTLE WAYS FROM HOLLOW ROAD IN A SMALL WOODED AREA. SPECIAL THANKS IS EXTENDED TO THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY EM OFFICE ALONG WITH SKYWARN SPOTTER LOU RUH FOR THEIR HELP IN THIS SURVEY. 4 W WYE MILLS QUEEN ANNES 4/1218 EF0 I 38.93 -76.14 THE TORNADO TOUCHED DOWN ALONG STAGWELL ROAD IN QUEENSTOWN. PICTURES AND VIDEO SHOWED A DISTINCT BUT NARROW PATH IN A CORN FIELD PARALLEL TO THE ROAD WHICH IS MOSTLY EAST TO WEST. THE DOWNED CORN WAS IN A CIRCULAR PATTERN, AND AERIAL FOOTAGE OVER THE CORN FIELD SHOWED SOME DOWNBURST SIGNATURES ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TORNADO PATH. IN ADDITION TO THE CORNFIELD DAMAGE, SPORADIC TREE DAMAGE OCCURRED ALONG STAGWELL ROAD ACROSS FROM THE CORN FIELD. THE TORNADO LOOKS TO HAVE LIFTED BEFORE IT REACHED THE WYE RIVER AS THERE WAS NO ADDITIONAL VISIBLE DAMAGE NORTH OF THIS PATH. RADAR SHOWED DEFINED ROTATION, HOWEVER GIVEN THE WEAK INTENSITY OF THE TORNADO IT APPEARED TO HAVE OCCURRED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF A LARGER ROTATIONAL SIGNATURE AND THEREFORE TRACKED MORE EAST TO WEST. SANDTOWN KENT 4/1225 EF1 I 39.03 -75.72 THE TORNADO TOUCHED DOWN IN THE VICINITY OF ROAD 258 SOUTH OF SANDTOWN ROAD, THEN TRACKED ACROSS A SECTION OF MOSTLY OPEN FIELDS BUT DAMAGED SOME TREES ALONG THE WAY. IT THEN TRACKED DOWN THE WESTERN PORTION OF SANDTOWN ROAD CLOSER TO ROUTE 10 DAMAGING SEVERAL HOMES AND SNAPPING AND UPROOTING SEVERAL TREES. A HOME HAD SOME WINDOWS BLOWN OUT ALONG WITH ROOF DAMAGE, ANOTHER HOME HAD ITS ROOF BLOWN OFF AND THERE WAS A LARGE GARAGE THAT HAD ITS BACK SHEET METAL WALL TORN OFF. THE TORNADO CROSSED ROUTE 10 NEAR THE INTERSECTION WITH SANDTOWN ROAD AND MOVED ACROSS THE SANDTOWN LANDFILL FACILITY WHERE ADDITIONAL TREES WERE UPROOTED OR SNAPPED, TWO FRONT-END LOADERS HAD WINDOWS BLOWN OUT AND SOME TRUCK TRAILERS WERE FLIPPED OVER. THE TORNADO EXITED THE LANDFILL AND MAY HAVE DISSIPATED BEFORE REACHING THE MARYLAND-DELAWARE STATE LINE. DOPPLER RADAR DATA SHOWED ROTATION AND A NOTABLE TORNADO DEBRIS SIGNATURE NEAR AND JUST NORTHWEST OF SANDTOWN AS DEBRIS WAS TOSSED INTO THE AIR. 3 WNW SURF CITY OCEAN 4/1454 EF1 I 39.68 -74.21 A WATERSPOUT DEVELOPED IN MANAHAWKIN BAY BETWEEN SHIP BOTTOM AND BRANT BEACH. IT TRACKED NORTHWESTWARD AND VIDEO FOOTAGE SHOWED THE CIRCULATION WITH LIGHT DEBRIS IN THE AIR CROSSING THE ROUTE 72 BRIDGE OVER THE BAY. THE WATERSPOUT THEN CONTINUED TRACKING TO THE NORTHWEST AND PASSED EAST OF MUD CITY BEFORE MOVING ASHORE INTO A MARSHY AREA OF THE MANAHAWKIN WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA. OTHER THAN SOME LIGHT DEBRIS REPORTED IN THE AIR AS IT CROSSED THE ROUTE 72 BRIDGE, NO OTHER DAMAGE REPORTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED AS OF THIS REPORT. HOWEVER, THE CIRCULATION TRACKED RIGHT OVER THE LONG BEACH ISLAND WEATHERFLOW WEATHER STATION LOCATED NORTH OF EGG ISLAND AND WEST OF FLAT ISLAND IN MANAHAWKIN BAY WHICH MEASURED A 109 MPH WIND GUST AT 10:53 AM EDT. THIS MEASUREMENT WAS USED TO RATE THIS WATERSPOUT/TORNADO GIVEN THE LACK OF ACTUAL DAMAGE. DOPPLER RADAR DATA SHOWED NO EVIDENCE OF A TORNADO DEBRIS SIGNATURE. DOPPLER RADAR DATA HOWEVER DID INDICATE VELOCITIES TO 112 MPH AT ABOUT 1,600 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND VERY NEAR THE AFOREMENTIONED WEATHER STATION. 1 WSW DOYLESTOWN BUCKS 4/1510 EF2 I 40.31 -75.14 A TORNADO TOUCHED DOWN JUST EAST OF THE PHILADELPHIA MILLS MALL AS IT MOVED IN A NORTHWESTERLY DIRECTION ALONG OR NEAR KNIGHTS ROAD AND MEDFORD ROAD TOWARD DUNKS FERRY ROAD. THREE EXHAUST SYSTEMS AND 6 RTU SYSTEMS WERE BLOWN OFF THE ROOF IN LESS THAN 15 SECONDS AT THE FORMER WALMART STORE CURRENTLY UNDERGOING RECONSTRUCTION, AND NUMEROUS TREES, SOME CLOSE TO 100 YEARS OLD, WERE SNAPPED OR BLOWN OVER ALONG KNIGHTS ROAD, MEDFORD ROAD, AND DUNKS FERRY ROAD. ROOFS, SIDING, AND AWNINGS WERE BLOWN OFF MANY HOMES IN THE AREA. A FEW CARS WERE ALSO TOSSED OR TURNED OVER AS THE STORM MOVED THROUGH. THE ESTIMATED WIND SPEED IN THIS AREA WAS 100 MPH, EQUIVALENT TO EF1 ON THE ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE. CURRENT EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THE TORNADO THEN LIFTED OFF THE GROUND AS IT PROCEEDED IN A NORTHWESTERLY DIRECTION, BRIEFLY TOUCHING DOWN IN THE SOUTHAMPTON AREA OF BUCKS COUNTY. NUMEROUS TREES WERE SNAPPED IN THIS AREA AS WELL, WITH MANY HOMES AND CARS DAMAGED DUE TO FALLING TREES AND TREE LIMBS. THE SYCAMORE DRIVE AND HARDING ROADS AREAS WERE HARDEST HIT. THE ESTIMATED WIND SPEED IN THIS AREA WAS 90 MPH, EQUIVALENT TO AN EF1 ON THE ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE. CURRENT EVIDENCE AGAIN SUGGESTS THE TORNADO LIFTED ONE MORE TIME AS THE PARENT CIRCULATION TRAVELED TO THE DOYLESTOWN AREA, WHERE IT TOUCHED DOWN ONE FINAL TIME NEAR THE CENTRAL BUCKS WEST HIGH SCHOOL. HERE BLEACHERS ON THE VISITORS SIDE OF THE ATHLETIC FIELD WERE PICKED UP AND TOSSED BEFORE THE VORTEX MOVED ON TO THE DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL COMPLEX WHERE AT LEAST SIX AUTOMOBILES WERE TOSSED SOME DISTANCE, AND WHERE SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE OCCURRED TO THE CHILDRENS VILLAGE DAY CARE CENTER WITH NO SERIOUS INJURIES REPORTED. NUMEROUS TREES WERE FELLED IN AND AROUND THE HOSPITAL CENTER, AND SEVERAL METAL LAMP POSTS WERE BENT FROM THE WIND. THE ESTIMATED WIND SPEED IN THIS AREA WAS 115 MPH, EQUIVALENT TO A LOW-END EF2 ON THE ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE. THE TORNADO THEN CONTINUED MOVING IN A NORTHWESTERLY DIRECTION, SNAPPING AND FALLING TREES, AS WELL AS CAUSING DAMAGE TO HOMES AND OTHER PROPERTIES, ESPECIALLY ALONG AND NEAR SANDY RIDGE ROAD, JEFFERSON AVENUE, AND LOWER STATE ROAD, BEFORE LIFTING ALONG FERRY ROAD NEAR THE PEACE VALLEY RESERVOIR. THE ESTIMATED WIND SPEED IN THIS AREA WAS 100 MPH, EQUIVALENT TO AN EF1 ON THE ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtd208 Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 Not to start digging into winter yet since we are still in August but Larry Cosgrove hinted that this could be another disappointing winter for cold and snow lover in our area. I have zero expectations going into the winter especially after the last couple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Didn't quite hit 90 today (only made it to 89 because as that storm passed way south of here, the sky clouded up and dropped the temps), but had a little fog this morning with a low of 71. Currently 80 with the dp at 73, so it's starting to steam up again. As a sidenote, my little lightning sensor had 2 hits right around the time that little storm complex blew through southern Chesco, Delco, and into Delaware and New Jersey. In fact, that little thing managed to hang together until it finally sortof dissipated right outside of AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it's down in a slight valley, not much air movement, and everything is damp from all the rain last week. And then we had a shower in the pm just to keep things nicely humid. AC feels great now!

You should have weighed yourself before/after. I bet you lost 3-5+lbs of water weight. When I worked outside or played hoops on a hot/muggy day I could easily lose 5+lbs. I usually grabbed a gatorade to restore some electrolytes then water. Then I would sit in the A/C and grab a beer which is probably what you're doing.

Rtd208 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Pretty wet 0z GFS runs especially late week into next weekend. We could have some flooding issues from slow moving showers/t-storms especially in those areas recently hit with heavy rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Days like these and working outside, I like it to feel like a walk in refrigerator when I come inside. 73F on the t'stat does the trick, although I could take 70 if it wasn't for the electric bill, lol.

I'm cheaper than you, 75 does the trick, 73 is a treat and 70 is a full blown out party! The main thing w A/C is not only is it cooler but low humidity which helps w/breathing for those who have allergies like myself. 74F / DP 73 ....and foggy windows. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mine on 72 - 73 and that works. But I supplement in my bedroom at night to get it down into the upper 60s or less. That lets me sleep like a log. It is currently a steamy 75 with the dp at 74 (the steamed-up windows don't lie), and there is some low stratus around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
