The rope appears to be dissipating, maybe because a new one seems to have formed just to the east. The rain is getting heavier though. Let me show you the ropes: 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wissahickon Creek (at the mouth to the Schuylkill) pretty much out of its banks now as of 8 pm so probably worse with the 9 pm update). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the generator gassed up at least. What it really looks like is the Nexus ribbon on Star Trek 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Line went through Torrential Rain sump pump going off for a 7th time in last hour. The wind with the line was an abrupt switch from South to SW to WSW Winds 35-45 gusts to 50 with the drenching rains. I am going to check the rain gauge now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only expected 40-45mph winds and I think I reach that and maybe a little more. Shore is where 50-55mph+ were expected...high winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dankil13 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 35 minutes ago, Hurricane Agnes said: I never have either but it's a good description of this odd convective line! KPHL Asos reported a 51 mph gust. Winds are so strong out of the south at PHL is using runway 17 for all arrivals and departures vs the 27/9 R/L. A few of the 787s to Europe appear to be sitting on the sidelines hoping for the crosswinds to die down enough to take off on 27/9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Schuylkill at PHI rising but still has some room (but with what has to come, will probably hit some kind of flood stage). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schuylkill @30th St. is responding and at 6ft (as of 9pm). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
