Guess we'll see if the 2nd round contains severe cells I doubt the 2nd rd is stronger than the first batch. We didn’t have much sun today Flash flooding will be the bigger risk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Records: Highs: EWR: 97 (1965) NYC: 96 (1880) LGA: 92 (1965) JFK: 86 (1965) Lows: EWR: 43 (1967) NYC: 41 (1961) LGA: 41 (1961) JFK: 42 (1961) Historical 1771: In Virginia, a wall of water came roaring down the James River Valley following ten to twelve days of intense rain. As water swept through Richmond, buildings, boats, animals, and vegetation were lost. About one hundred fifty people were killed as the River reached a flood stage of forty-five feet above normal. A monument to the flood was inscribed by Ryland Randolph, of Curles, in 1771-72: " ... all the great rivers of this country were swept by inundations never before experienced which changed the face of nature and left traces of violence that will remain for ages." 1896 - A massive tornado struck Saint Louis, MO, killing 306 persons and causing thirteen million dollars damage. The tornado path was short, but cut across a densely populated area. It touched down six miles west of Eads Bridge in Saint Louis and widened to a mile as it crossed into East Saint Louis. The tornado was the most destructive of record in the U.S. up until that time. It pierced a five-eighths inch thick iron sheet with a two by four inch pine plank. A brilliant display of lightning accompanied the storm. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel) 1987 - Severe thunderstorms in West Texas produced baseball size hail at Crane, hail up to three and a half inches in diameter at Post, and grapefruit size hail south of Midland. Five days of flooding commenced in Oklahoma. Thunderstorms produced 7 to 9 inches of rain in central Oklahoma. Oklahoma City reported 4.33 inches of rain in six hours. Up to six inches of rain caused flooding in north central Texas. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Sunny and warm weather prevailed across much of the nation to kick off the Memorial Day weekend. Afternoon thunderstorms in southern Florida caused the mercury at Miami to dip to a record low reading of 69 degrees. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Unseasonably hot weather prevailed in the southeastern U.S. Ten cities reported record high temperatures for the date as readings soared into the 90s. Lakeland, FL, reported a record high of 99 degrees, and Biloxi, MS, reported a temperature of 90 degrees along with a relative humidity of 75 percent. (The National Weather Summary) 1990 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather from north central Texas to the Central Gulf Coast Region. Severe thunderstorms spawned four tornadoes, and there were eighty-one reports of large hail or damaging winds. Late afternoon thunderstorms over southeast Louisiana produced high winds which injured twenty-seven persons at an outdoor music concert in Baton Rouge, and high winds which gusted to 78 mph at the Lake Ponchartrain Causeway. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) 1997: An F5 tornado killed 27 people in Jarrell, Texas. Although tornado warnings were issued 30 minutes in advance and local sirens were sounded, there were few places to go for safety. Most homes were on slabs, with no basements. Houses were swept clean off their foundations, with little debris left behind. Total damage was $20 million. The same thunderstorm complex produced a wind gust to 122 mph at Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwx21 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 23 minutes ago, Allsnow said: Look by TTN Yeah that's a decent batch of rain that's about to move in, but the heavier stuff is going into northeast PA and northwest NJ. Also some heavier stuff along the coast, as Stormlover pointed out. At least we'll get a decent watering from this batch that's moving in, and then we'll have to see about possible storms later. I wonder if this round of rain might stabilize things enough to mess up severe chances later. HRRR doesn't show much after this round of rain.

Nothing to the sw of philly at the moment that would impact us later but still time for néw activity to fire I see a few cells have popped up now to the SW that will be heading into Mercer County shortly, so we might see some action in a little while. I'm up to .27" for the day so far, which includes a little downpour we had early in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
