I'm just west of that lihe now with only a few drops, but the southern end of the line is intensifying/expanding westward and now looks headed right for me. But these storms have been tricky with all the redevelopment as they move NE, so it can still miss me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cells that are heavy are really moving around fast with little in the way of predictability but hope you get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 For anyone who misses out today, 3K, HRRR and Rgem all have more rain over night so hold out hope...I am. And if it does not work out, more early yard watering tomorrow. LOL. That front sweeping through 65-70 level DP air on Wed has a high potential for all of us IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 The atmosphere is really being wrung out today. It’s the opposite of a couple days ago, in that it’s really coming down today even when the radar isn’t overly impressive. I’m at about a half inch here.

Blue Ridge is the drought capital right now as to people I know. One person on the downward side of Route 16 going west is at less than 15" for the year so far. Incredible. There is a flood watch out just to our Southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Lesser chances of showers today across the County but still warmer than normal for nearing mid-September. Cold front crosses the area on Tuesday night and that will set up a below normal stretch of great weather that should last through the weekend. Would not be surprised to see some valley locations touch the 40's by Friday morning. Records for today: High 99 (1897) / Low 34 (1924) / Rain 3.35" (1960) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Daily rainfall of .88" here. "Event" total going back to last Thursday of 1.8". Pleased. Looking forward to some fall-like weather moving in through the midweek. Anyone think Cape Cod needs to worry about Lee or do we think she'll be safely out into the Atlantic. NHC seems to think New England will be spared but some models say otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHC seems to think New England will be spared but some models say otherwise. It seems every year the NE thread tracks one that eventually slides farther East as the event gets closer. Still have to watch it but how often do we see a tropical or sub-tropical system sitting off the central coast of Maine? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 As we reach the one-third point of the month, MDT is rocking a +6.5 departure and sitting at an average temp of 78. Gonna be hard to knock that all the way back, particularly if we have another warmup after this cool spell, which seems possible. For the record, only two years in history have had a mean temp of greater than 72 -- 1961 and 1931. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like CXY is averaging 80.3F so far this month. Wow. Yep, crazy. Seems like a good time to re-up an article I've posted a couple of times previously on the history of the Harrisburg climate reporting sites. A complicated history indeed, and can be a bit messy to follow at times. Seems like CXY was used as the official site from 1939 to 1991. I love the blurb near the end on the "accuracy" of snowfall observations at MDT haha. Anyway, always worth a read.

TheClimateChanger Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 NOAA's NCEI has released the August 2023 and Summer 2023 rankings for the contiguous U.S. It was the 9th warmest August, and 15th warmest summer nationally. In Pennsylvania, it was a rather pedestrian 58th warmest summer on record, with a mean temperature of 68.5F, just 0.2F above the 20th century mean. In Chester County, NOAA's official ranking says that it was the 47th warmest summer on record countywide with a mean temperature of 72.5F, 1.0F above the 20th century mean.
