Bubbler86 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 48 this Am for the low. GFS keeps ticking the Fri-Sun amounts a little back with each run. Widespread 40's on the first day of met summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Low of 51. Gorgeous day on tap. My driest month ever at .37" is officially in the books. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 So we finished May as the 20th chillest May in Chester County history back to 1888. It was also our coldest May since 2008. The dryness was also historic as we only received a scant 0.21" of rain - the only drier month was May 1964 with just 0.14" of rain. Much warmer today with temps rising into the low 80's. Tomorrow looks to be the warmest day so far this year - spots outside of the higher ridges could touch the 90 degree mark for the first time this year. Records for today: High 96.5 (1895) / Low 34 (1930) / Rain 1.69" (1977) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have this convo every year and I cannot imagine how warm it gets in your house. It would be in the 85ish range here with no AC yesterday. Stifling for an in-house temp. And we have tree cover about 3/4 of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had mine serviced yesterday, ready to go. i will add, my daughter, who i think is @Itstrainingtimekid, has not been happy about the lack of AC. In my defense, it has been spectacular sleeping weather with the temps falling overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my defense, it has been spectacular sleeping weather with the temps falling overnight. My house would probably not fall below 77 right now with no AC. That is not good sleeping weather indeed. The basement (finished) is cooler but still stuffy if no AC. It is not insultation as my house stays warm in the winter....my heating bill was paltry this past winter. Less than $800 for Nov-April. In contrast I know people who had $1500-$2000 heating bills during that time...they are all electric. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Early 12Z Meso's are not inspiring for Fri and Sat rain. The ULL and front does not back into PA as the same trajectory as yesterday and timing with a vort sliding up from the south is not as great... so just scattered qpf.

As my kids marry and start families, my son in law and daughter in law aren't super thrilled with me...seems that my kids are keeping their homes down in the "ITT chill zone" a little more than they hoped they would. 1 hour ago, Bubbler86 said: My house would probably not fall below 77 right now with no AC.

We lost power for 4 hours in 2020 from a storm - temp inside went from 66 up to 75 and that was with temps outside only in the 70s after the storm. At 75, I'm melting.

Northeast Drought Summary Some rain fell across the far southern parts of the Northeast region and in northern New England this week. But most of the region received less than a fourth of an inch, and the rain that fell was mostly below normal. Temperatures averaged near to below normal. With soils drying, low streamflow, and very low precipitation for the month of May, D0 (abnormal dryness) was expanded across much of the region, from Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia to southern New York, and from western Maine to western Massachusetts. Large 90-day precipitation deficits prompted expansion of D1 (moderate drought) in Maryland and eastern Pennsylvania. Soils rapidly dried this week. According to May 28 data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), 80% of the topsoil moisture in Pennsylvania was rated short or very short (dry or very dry), an increase of 48% from last week. The values were 100% for New Jersey, 78% for Maryland, and 52% for New York. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With how dry it is I can definitely see that contributing to the summer being a few degrees warmer some days than what would have originally been forecast as well. Since dryness like that likes to invite more heat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
