Voyager Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 So here's a snippet from our AFD this afternoon. Heading through the rest of the week and into this weekend, the central anticyclone is expected to slide west-northwest or develop a new center, with increasing H5 heights. The high is expected to center over central CA this weekend before drifting back over AZ early next week. This will unfortunately continue the prolonged excessive heat we have been enduring. Surface temperatures are expected to go up with the strengthening of the high. NBM has the hottest temperatures this weekend, pushing 115-120F for many lower desert locations. Morning lows will also remain quite warm, ranging from mid-80s to low-90s, and even mid-90s in some locations like Phoenix. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Lol. Down goes jns!My parents keep the a/c at 74/75. Their room isn't on the top floor. The one spare bedroom is. It defiantly is warmer up there. I've actually gone as far as having two big fans blasting on high while I soak a pillow case in ice water, with a couple frozen gel packs inside to place on my back as both fans blast me.

CoralRed Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 It looks like we here in Williamsport are done with the rain that has been coming down in the northern half of the state off and on for hours. We received .42. I saw this post on Twitter from the guy who covers fires. He did a podcast that covers, among other things, the question: "The U.S. sends a massive resource order to Canada. Are the U.S. resources left enough to cover the coming fire season?" Usually the international help for other countries like us is a question of firefighters, not resources. I sure hope we didn't send too much up there. I have been very surprised and relieved that we haven't had more fires, considering we get hotter and Canada's fires have been an out of control mess for over a month. Ocean temps are elevated so God knows what hurricane season will bring as it really starts to get going in another month. Our weather may soon become too interesting. https://twitter.com/HotshotWake/status/1679169290988142594 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTP still has a HWO for heavy rain possibilities tonight - though they dropped you and me from "likely" rain down to "chance" of rain...Harrisburg on N&W is still looking good though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked my grass yesterday and it is fading back faster than I thought it would. No rain today or tomorrow and brown town is back. We are back to watering the garden twice a day as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how quickly it happens this time of year. I watered everything well on Tuesday evening...I got home from work last evening and my wife was going on about how dried out the veggies were already.

Yea, 2-3 days of sun and it does not matter if it rained 1/2" or 4" as to the plants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you'll cash in the next few days on beneficial rainfall. I hope you get 2 in or more till Monday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 New Drought Map. D2 limited to a very small area of the LSV and D1 pulled back quite a bit. All of LSV in some level of drought/D0 still with D1 for most of Franklin and Cumberland and much of the southern LSV. Northeast Drought Summary The recent dryness in much of the Northeast Region was abruptly ended by heavy to excessive rainfall last week. Rainfall totals of 3.5 to locally 8.0 inches of rain pelted much of eastern Pennsylvania and the west half of New England, with numerous reports of flash flooding. Maine, lower New England, eastern New York, much of New Jersey, and a few patches across the mid-Atlantic Region and West Virginia recorded moderate to heavy amounts with isolated totals exceeding 3 inches. A few tenths of an inch of precipitation fell elsewhere, at best. Broad drought improvement or removal resulted across much of New England and the adjacent Northeast, but conditions were generally unchanged in the relatively drier areas, including parts of the mid-Atlantic Region and western sections of Pennsylvania and New York. The worst conditions on the Drought Monitor (D2) are now restricted to central Maryland and adjacent Pennsylvania Full Summary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 80 in Maytown. When it's 80 before 10, great likelihood of 90s on that day. Today I reached it at 9am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not realize how dry areas like central and western Cumberland county has been - I thought it was confined to south of the 'pike but I guess not.

Thanks as always for sharing. ....and this Drought map is as of 48 hours ago, so conditions have trended worse. With the GFS only showing 1/4"-1/2" of rain for the LSV over the next 5 days, there is a chance the drought map makes a decent push to the negative next week. The CMC is more wet during that time. Pop up winner cells do not do much to change this depiction. Need an area wide rain like much of the area got Sunday. I was in Western Carlisle earlier this week and it is brown and super dry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anduril Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 HRRR wants nothing to do with storms for most of PA today except into Friday morning early hours might be some boomers.
