Mount Joy Snowman Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 .31" for my daily total. Fitzgerald with a pretty weak write-up for CTP's AFD this morning but at least they still mentioned a bit of what @Newman was talking about. What's become of me when I'm calling out NWS forecasters by name, a new low for Snowman haha. Strong low to mid level flow, combined with a moist tropical airmass, could yield a few storms that possess transient supercell structure this afternoon. The primary severe wx threat will be localized damaging winds and an isolated tornado, primarily along and to the east of the track of Fred`s remnants.

Newman Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I think much of South Central PA has a chance at something significant later today, but Harrisburg is probably the bullseye spot to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand .26" for me yesterday, .44" since midnight. 2 day running total at .70" I'll pass on the tornado threat. Paid off my house and became 100% debt free last week, I'd like to keep things intact now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Yeah for Central PA, it would take a miracle and a half to get any impacts (other than maybe some breezy conditions?) from Henri. But very fun to watch evolve regardless, SNE and perhaps even as far west as NYC are still very much in play as of now. More hurricane spaghetti models continue to show that capture and tug back west. GFS and UKMET are on board. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Congratulations man. That is so awesome. The first house i built would have been paid off when i was 45, but choose 16 years ago to buy my family homestead and completely redo and add a 40x40 addition. Would have been paid off in 2023, but the big D changed those plans. lol 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
