See some possible thin spots to the west but can't see the moon at the moment. The cloud bank has a SW to NE vector so I'm not optimistic, but still hopeful. The total eclipse lasts a while so we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Just saw it for a few minutes before some thin clouds slid over. Woohoo! It's pretty dim-bulbish so it doesn't take much to obscure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you can catch some past totality. Took some time because the clouds were moving parallel to the moon but cleared it a little before midnight it looked bloody good.

Cut the lawn, storms brewing. 62F/slight fog I heard a robin still going at it at 8:22 pm last night well after the sun had set. One just started up here right now at post time (4:52 am). Made it up to 78 yesterday and of course there was a layer of clouds blurring the moon here. Have spotted it this morning as it's low in the SW sky starting to set but with some scattered clouds in that direction (and still have the high cloud deck still in the NE). Currently partly cloudy and 63 with dp 63. SPC SWDY1 holding with the Enhanced Risk for the entire CWA (except coastal NJ, which is under a Slight Risk).

RedSky Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The NAM and HRRR say the current disorganized scattered showers in eastern PA are the storms that hit us in just a couple of hours between 2 and 3pm they have nothing behind that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sun has not made an appearance until briefly just after noon here today and that had kept the temps in the upper 60s until the sun popped out and shot the temp up to where it is now at 76, with dp 70 (and you can feel it ). Have had some non-measurable drizzle about an hour ago enough to wet the walk and add the soup to the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Ok, just saw a possible hail core pop up in the storm that just passed over Harrisburg. Not seeing anything concerning in relative velocity though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolHandMike Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 First storm fizzled as it went over us, didn't even register in the rain gauge. Temp dropped from 80 to 73 in 30 minutes though, and humidity lowered by only a few percentage points from 69.8 to 67.8. Still soupy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolHandMike Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I'm juuuust inside of that severe warned zone but it looks like everything is going to fringe me to the north. I guess that's good, seeing some hail signatures popping up here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 Getting the infamous "self-destruct sunshine" that destabilizes things, generates the clouds, produces the little pop up showers, drops the temp some and stabilizes the air. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. So far I've gotten up to 77 for a high, but with sun gone again, and 0.01" of rain (so far), temp dropped down to 72. Have crept up to 73 at post time. The dp of 69 is rough though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
