mahantango#1 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Will there be a threat of heavy rain again later this week, or has the threat diminished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a piece of energy progged to move near PA Thursday night. Nam and Icon would give the LSV heavy rain, GFS a bit North in the MSV and CMC farther north than the GFS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think there is a good chance of rain Thursday night. Even if not heavy/it is just scattered. We got 1" of rain Sunday and already have to water the plants and veggies (potted and in ground) so it will be welcome if we can get some. Grass is more resilient and would be good until Thursday.

I am up to 4.37 on the Ambient and 4.67 on the Accurite for the month. Both gauges are accurate with light and moderate rain. But when it pours the Accurite totals are more. So I guess i';ll have to put out my standard gauge to compare them when it pours. The rain is welcome but I at least should have a few more days to dry out untill the next bout comes. Hopefully you'll get more later this week. I'll pass on the next rain chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure seems like mother nature loves to screw with us with how she distributes rainfall in winter vs summer (i.e stratiform vs convection) vs what is actually best for gardensSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timing of the day is important as well. I think 1/2" of rain at 10 in the morning followed by baking July sun is less beneficial than 1/4" of rain at 8PM.

Definitely helped the grass. If it were cloudy all the time, we would be fine with rain once or twice every two weeks. A little smokey over here as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From reading an LNP article on it the other day, it wasn't clear to me if it's going to be primarily for university use or widely distributed to the public. I also got the impression that companies like RadarScope won't have access to it. Hope I'm wrong. Can't imagine they wouldn't want it to be widely available given all the hoopla about it.

ChescoWx Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 It looks like a couple slightly above normal temp days are on tap for the area over the next couple of days. However, 90 degree plus temps look to yet again miss most of Chester County. Later tomorrow the weather looks to get a bit unsettled again with a good chance of showers and t-storms by Thursday night and chances continue through much of the upcoming weekend. Records for today: High 99 (1936) / Low 45 (1898) / Rain 2.09" (2009) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 12Z GFS and Nam 12 both are not all that thrilled about Thur night now. GFS clips me as the precip is fading but Nam is a big nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NAM delays shit hit to morning Friday. At some point timing matters for instability. Another point is I've gone to using ensembles for anything over 48 hours and only use HRRR or NAM3k for 3 maybe 6 hours at a time. Because the mesos between 6-48 have been that badSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted July 11, 2023 Author Share Posted July 11, 2023 I think every day over the next 7 I hit 90. Hopefully this is the extent of the extended heat we see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had a dollar for every time I was told that bad news on the Op's did not mean anything because the ensembles said so......Not to say models should not be used but it has been a bruising journey the last 6-12 months.

In fairness, 90 on the dot is only 2-3 degrees above normal. That is why I am not a fan of using it for heat wave designations. 3 AN is not a heatwave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
