CarlislePaWx Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I tied my high from yesterday at 98.1, however the dew point was a little higher around 75 versus 72 yesterday so my heat index peaked at 110. It's still 107 at 6:30. Ridiculous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be around the highest heat index I have ever recorded anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Continues to be amazing here. My weather station is now in the shade. Shortly before 7:30pm the temp is 93 degrees with a heat index of 103...in the shade!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I see a beautiful line out in Western PA. Question is, does it get this far east or does it run out of gas due to the loss of daytime heating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 A lot of lightning currently in the distance to my north. I think the line of storms will make it to the LSV a little later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been burned before staying up hoping to see one and they fizzle out, so I'm going to bed. If it's a good one I hope I don't sleep through it.

TheDreamTraveler Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Hearing tons of thunder in the distance. Might be a close call if it hits here but seems likely. Looks like there's a stronger line forming ahead of the older one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the line of storms will make it to the LSV a little later on. I’m seeing that too, just shy of 10 PM. Amazing to see the entire northern sky lit up like that! No thunder, wind, or anything else that would suggest a storm heading my way; I’m guessing those of you to my north will have all the fun this time. This is one of the warmest evenings I can recall so far this summer. Weather Underground is telling me it’s 85 out, dew point 72 and feels like 92. Definitely concur with the “feels like 92”.

You know, on my phone I don’t see locations unless I click on profiles and I was probably seeing something different from what Blizzard of 93 was seeing.

Mount Joy Snowman Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I topped out at 95 yesterday and bottomed out at 67 last night, got only .03" rain as most of the action slid by me. As others have mentioned though, a nice light show. One more day of extreme heat then we see some relief. Hang in there folks, and find some water to play in.

I'm sure there was a little home weenie station error in that but still......anyone else have anything crazy from that August 13th date, or any other date for that matter? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Had a low this morning of 66.9 degrees. Last night the dew point dropped about 8 degrees from 74 to 66. That made a huge difference regarding comfort. Before that drop, I noted that my heat index did not drop below 100 until 8:05pm. The drop in dew point took place around 9:00pm or so and this morning it's a "refreshing" 67 degrees...lol. It might be interesting to see what happens with high temps this afternoon. I know they are forecast to be around 95, but with the dew point drier my guess is I'll be back up around 98 later today. It's just that the heat index will only be around 102 versus the 110 yesterday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
