I wonder what the non tropical storm record for qpf in a month at MDT is. I don't know about MDT, but I had over 11" a few years ago and none of it was tropical. There was a day in August when Maytown - Mount Joy - Manheim all picked up between 6-11" of rain in about 2-3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Looks like .4” in 10 mins so far but hard to see the gauge and it might be covered in water so can’t accurately see the number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah was discussing August of 2018 with someone last week, how it's my rainiest month of all time with 17.79". I have missed out on absolutely everything so far today, swear some it may have just been the next farm field over. So close yet so far. Things are plenty windy and dark though.

I'm at .11" for the afternoon - what rain I've received has fallen under sunny skies. Gorgeous rainbow to my south. August 2018 - that was before I had my station and I was estimating off local reports. I know from my garden gauge that the day that Mount Joy proper had over 10", I had just a smidge over 6" at my place. Very quietly, some areas of southern Lanco are approaching 4" of rain since 2:30pm today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Mount Joy shopping and had gotten out of town just in time before the flooding got bad, lots of car rescues that day. My total from that day was only 4.45" ha. Man those cells in Solanco area are just dumping while barely moving, always a scary situation. Meanwhile, it's uncanny over here how closely I'm being missed again on all sides, sun back out.

CarlislePaWx Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Gee, after reading through over 120 posts in which I skipped over the sports posts, I can say that what I saw 30 minutes ago was the rapidly intensifying thunderstorms that barely gave me 0.01" dumping on Harrisburg just like last night. Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
