ChasingFlakes Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 My flight is landing at 11:50pm in PHL tonight. Think I'll be alright? NWS says 20-30mph out of the SW with gusts up to 50mph. Philly's runway is oriented ESE-ENE, so that may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I wouldn't want to drive a rig sunny and 70F. With my eyesight I'd hop curbs on every turn and backing in would take hours. Current winter is a D+/D IMO. Anything somewhat decent before we close out the season may raise the grade into the C's... 62F/Looks like when the front passes through 4-6am is our best chance of thunder/high winds (squall line)...

Yeah, my job is the number one reason for my dislike of snow and ice. If I were driving for an asphalt paving company and got laid off for the winter, I'd say let it rip.

CoolHandMike Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 We got down to about 55 but are now almost at 60°F again, with .4" in the gauge and winds gusting in the 20 MPH range. Crazy weather for the middle of February at 11pm. Going full weenie on @RedSky's uncharacteristically optimistic digital snow post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolHandMike Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 1 AM and back above 60°F. Super gusty. Pressure still dropping so the front is still well west of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Oh wow. It's actually roaring out there! Wondering if the neighbor's trampoline will still be there in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 0.26" on the storm. Winds gusting into the low 30's. 61.1F Nice little rope plowing through PA right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Diurnal low was just after midnight and am now back up to 61, with dp 59 in anticipation of a roller coaster non-diurnal temperature change day.

CoolHandMike Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Eh, seemed kinda underwhelming. Picked up another tenth of an inch. Still, not cool to see a spring-type rain event in the middle of February. Will be glad to return to more seasonal temps (and hopefully precip!) in the days to come.

Hurricane Agnes Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Fast moving line and it is past me now with a max of about 0.66"/hr rates but dropping.

Rockem_sockem_connection Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I think this is the worst sustained wind in a few years since I moved in. Couldn't sleep at all. Wind just absolutely pounding the house still as we speak and branches all over the yard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 62F for an overnight high, now down to 51F. Just over .50" in the bucket. The front really made it's presences known here -- heavy down pour with strong winds for about 10-15 minutes. Never bothered putting the trash out last night, just took it to the curb now.

Hurricane Agnes Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Now down to 48 but what took the faster hit was the dp, which is now down to 37. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
