My brother is under that cell in Kutztown and getting hail slightly larger than pea sized. He said the lightning is intense and thunder super loud.

He said the lightning is intense and thunder super loud. A spotter in Kutztown reported quarter and dime-size hail around the campus. I was last up there about 10 years ago (doesn't seem like it) to go to the Folk Festival and Crystal Cave that I hadn't been to in over 40 years, so I have a visualization of the area. And I just hit 95 with dp 76. Will not set foot outside if I can help it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of Birds' stuff to the west. Not sure how much will hold together by the time it gets here but it looks pretty rough!

ChescoWx Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 High Temps today here in NW Chesco - Ambient station made it to 89.7 - Davis VP2 hit 89.1 and the rooftop Tempest hit 90.5.

CoolHandMike Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 97.7°F high IMBY today. This is (literally) not cool. Mid 90's at my work site in southern NJ these past few days, I am DONE with this heat. Sweating though my clothes multiple times per day is something I'd like to really stop doing, please and thank you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 synopsis for today. Hit 94 here in Lower Macungie. First thundershower at 1:30 pm few drops of rain most of the t storm went NW toward Schnecksville. Second round- outflow boundary with gust front at 5pm. Biggest wind storm in a while. 40 Mph gusts with several dead ash trees falling in the woods behind my house. At 5:45pm , the line of t storms finally came though with dime size hail, lots of lighting and heavy rain. Another round of t- storms came though about 30 minutes ago- nice lighting show. Last look at guage was nearly an inch or more of very welcomed rainfall. Will be spending tomorrow afternoon cleaning up the debris from the gust front. Leaves are everywhere.

Thing is, if you don't take it down it will rain/wind and fly in the neighbors yard then you'll have to take a humiliating walk to retrieve it. Other neighbors will look out the window and giggle. I had to fetch many trashcans half way down the block/neighbors yard... 72F/DP 65F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
