hit the forecast right on the nose. T storms redeveloping right around Philly. NWS discussion has left out the LV again of why we were screwed again.. What else is new.  They are too worried about PWAT's  in the forecast that do not even come to fruition.  The 70% chance of rain has dwindled to 30% by 1:00 pm for the LV. I really do not see a measurable rain over one inch for the rest of the month. Normal  for July should be around 4 in.  Have had less than .25 in at my house. Drought watches coming soon. Current streamflow on the Little Lehigh is now in severe drought conditions.

Alright folks, moving to  the end of next week to a place where it doesn't snow. They always called me snow storm Steve but all good things come to an end. I wish you white loving weenies the best 

 

Thanks. Good luck to you! Now you can be Hurricane Steve (if you're close enough to the coast).

Farmers are in dire straits most of the fields of sillage corn and soybeans are not irrigated 

Corn on the cob is super expensive. I remember going crabbing then picking up a dozen corn for a buck and tomatoes....then .79 gas/gal in NJ heading home. And maybe some cheap NJ booze. Always hit the NJ stands for produce on the way back home...every time.

THIS.

Grab a bushel of Jersey corn, tomatoes, and peaches as well as some crabs or clams and back across the bridge.  Soon as we got in the house, the corn husking began, and the big pot of water was already on the stove to boil. :lol:

As an obs, the humidity has thankfully dropped and it's currently 72 with dp 64.

Yep, and a big wooden basket/tub of apples for like $2 bucks and keep the wooden basket. Produce Junction which is probably the cheapest these days I get 5-6 apples  for $2-$3....in a plastic bag.  

When I went crabbing w/my father, around the bridge time, I would call my mother to turn stove on. (Big pot of water) so we could dump the crabs in when we arrived. Old bay and other seasonings and all...   

DPs are thankfully down...

I have a big crabbing trip planned for September. We usually go down to southern DE and crab off of a seawall in one of the bays but we haven't been since before the pandemic. It also used to be a day trip since we were relatively close when we lived in Chester County. This year though we decided to rent a camping cabin for a few nights so we could have more time to crab during the day. I can't wait, it's going to be epic.

Cool and cloudy this morning. Loving it.
