I disagree, the flow is clearly ENE with the one exception being that rogue cell near Coatsesville which is defying fluid hyperdimensional physics and going the opposite direction. Interesting to say the least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Been hearing thunder here to the north, south, and east, and the radar confirms it, surrounded on 3 sides. Been mainly sunny here most of the day, high was 90F, currently 87, dp 74. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Ended up with 0.08" from getting fringed from a pop-up but it knocked the temp down to 79 now with dp 76. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Still roasting in bright sunshine and high humidity. Went out at lunch and bought a fancy-pants new leaf blower, came home and put it on the charger. Then I went outside and within 10 minutes of simply WALKING AROUND my yard with my shiny-new, giant cordless lawn hair-dryer, I am soaked for the second time today. I'm gonna run out of clean clothes at this rate! As for rain, I can kinda-sorta see some threatening-looking cells over the horizon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 The sun has been peaking through the haze and the temp recovered to 82 here. But the dp is now 80. I noticed that the current pop-ups have literally been stationary. There doesn't seem to be anything to move them along and they eventually fizzle out.

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Sun pretty much full out now and temp is back up to 85 but with dp 79. It's a sauna. Radar is lit up like a Christmas tree with all kinds of boundaries moving around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 UNBELIVEABLE. First I get fringed to within a mile south, and now I'm getting fringed to within a mile NORTH. Reading Rain Shield™ in full effect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have watched some these cells doing this. The temp has now recovered here and is up to 86 with dp 77. I did just see Mt. Holly's AFD and they did note all the "boundary" traffic in the area - sea breezes, bay breezes, and convection outflows, and the radar is showing them overlapping and intersecting. And then at the intersection points, stuff starts firing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't this like the third time this year we've had these incredibly hard to track/predict, nearly stationary storms? I don't recall seeing it like this too often in the past. Watching the radar loop it just looks unreal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Just look at all the different "tracks". Maybe mostly pointing north-ish? I guess whatever algorithm is used to determine likely storm tracks is just as confused as I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Never saw crazy storm movement like this before. The prevalent flow is east but they are moving like poking a hornets nest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess whatever algorithm is used to determine likely storm tracks is just as confused as I am. They probably are confused trying to shoe-horn a track in because there's no flow to move the storms around they just sit there and rain and thunder and lightning themselves out and fade... and the bubble up again a little ways away. I suppose that's why they call them "pulse" storms because when one pop up, it'll increase in intensity might suddenly decrease in intensity and then might swell up on one side and shrink on the other, and finally move around in place like an undulating blob.

CoolHandMike Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 The Rain Shield™ opened up just enough for .42" to sneak in. Temp down to 75 as well. Some lovely distant thunder and lightning are adding to the evening's ambiance. Good little storm, that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazleton (12 miles) and Middleport (8 miles) had 3 and 2 inches respectively. Base of the Blue Mountain on 309 in Snyders (9 miles) had a half inch. Tamaqua proper? A whopping 0.08 inch.

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 OMG I had some mutant cell form, bubble up, and undulate right over my area between about 3 am and 4 am, depositing about 1.20" in that time. I am still getting light rain at post time (now at 1.31") and it's 73 with dp 73. This round has taken me to 10.36" of rain for the month of August and there is more possible over the next couple of days, not counting whatever Ida generates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now sitting at 2.1" for the event--not bad. Only 7.8" for the month though but you're right, let's see what the weekend brings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
