It was like an amoeba that only survives on ridges Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Like usual the valley to our left/west dried it out as it approached. It did fine on the ridges to our East. We are in the unfortunate position over having two of the taller peaks in or near PA close together but a valley in between which acts to limit precip. It shows up in models all the time. Some people in Adams reporting over 1/2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get much here in Hanover. We've had the same issue with missing just to the nse&w. Headed back home so I will check the gauge then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Mcsherrystown is less than 10 minutes from mby. Unbelievable. So how often does your club meet as I may be interested in joining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Tonight, I really need to know, “How much for Philly?” The family & I are down at the Phillies game. It poured when we got here about 1 hour ago with thunder & lightning. The sky has cleared for now & the game looks to be starting on time soon at 6:05. Hopefully we get a 3 hour window to get the game in tonight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Paw Paw WV bagged 1.25" this afternoon and evening. Maybe there is some credence to living in that area. They now have over 35" for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 All the rain is dying as it moves up from Maryland. 80% of the days it has rained this summer have been days with at least a 60% chance of rain, yet they have accounted for only 20% of my totals. I do far far better when I have a 30% chance. Those days have accounted for 80% of my rain total and have an event average rainfall 10x any day I'm at 60% chanceSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 That storm packed at least a rain punch in Tamaqua. At peak intensity, the rate was 5.05" per hour. 1.22" and still raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 It completed its collapse before it reached the river. We will be lucky to hit .50" through Monday. If we get hit it will be on Some random overnight next week when nothing is forcast, or an evening when nothing is forcast and everyone is out. This is the first year where I seriously thing something is horribly wrong with the modelsSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Guys...I'm surprised the wind event I had wasn't experienced by more of you. I saw Canderson's comment. Honestly, I don't think I've ever experienced something quite like what happened here a few hours ago when that pretty strong cell moved due north up from Adams. There was no lightning. There was no thunder. It wasn't even completely overcast. When I heard the roar outside I was surprised. I went outside and watched the 80-foot tall trees in my backyard bending like never before. Fortunately the winds were coming out of the south, which is also a bit unusual. I knew right away that 30-40mph sustained winds with gusts to over 50 were suddenly upon me. I figured, alright, this will only last a couple of minutes. But, it kept going. The noise was amazing. Within 5 minutes the rain began and the wind just kept on going. There were momentary lulls, of course, but the event lasted easily for 15 minutes or more. I just wish I had better wind exposure for my anemometer. The back of my house faces north. That means the most blocked direction for winds is when they are out of the south. So, I recorded a whopping 9 mph on my Ambient, and 12mph on my Tempest. The temperature fell rapidly again, just like yesterday, from near 90 all the way down to 67 in about 10 minutes. I haven't had time to look online for the data, but I don't know if a severe thunderstorm warning had been issued for this. Again, not one lightning bolt or clap of thunder through the entire event. Amazing! Fortunately, no damage from the high winds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No storms here either and little to no rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summit Snow Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Wow. Never saw what I saw tonight. 4.35" so far and most of that since 6:00PM. Roads are close and it continues to pour with more incoming. Not good in the Northern Tier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
