BlizzardNole Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I knew a couple days ago when I saw partly sunny and 30% chance showers for this weekend it would end up a rainout. TG for telework so I can enjoy the nice weather this week 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Is 2024 the year of the rain shower or what? FFS, I'd give my left nut for a couple days of legit snow showers over the course of an entire winter. Come spring it's weeks on end of rain showers though. Honestly I'd rather have this than drought so I'll stop whining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interstate Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I know we had/have a couple of nice days... but when are we going to break this pattern... After tomorrow, it looks unsettled for like a week straight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I know we had/have a couple of nice days... but when are we going to break this pattern... After tomorrow, it looks unsettled for like a week straight.I have no issues with 80, partly sunny and storm chances. It’s the low clouds that take until an hour before sunset to break up along with 55-60 degree temps that can I do without. I’m hoping we’ve graduated from that pattern. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAOS Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 On 5/4/2024 at 8:46 AM, IronTy said: What year is that from? Looks like a throwback classic from old TWC local forecast graphics from my childhood. It is an old school TWC emulator. I have it set up locally on my home network using IIS. That said, I'd rather not make my local network public. But here is a some public stuff you can try... battaglia.ddns.net/twc There is a problem with that site. Only the main locations work. For example, Baltimore City works but Pasadena does not. This is due to some bad wind data which cause the script to stall. I have told the guy that hosts the site, though I don't think he fixed it yet. I believe he may be looking for some more info from me. I know what the problem is because my server works on the localized sites. It is a windows based server. Here is another that is very similar. It is linux based (no music/smooth jazz). weatherstar.netbymatt.com I also run a version of it locally on my linux server. Here is one that I run locally on IIS, but also have a public version on github. https://kaosfactor.github.io/ It defaults to Pasadena, but you can change the location if you like. It is based off of the intellistar (newer) hardware. Where as the others are weatherstar based. Please note the the radar is only for our region in this version. That version uses low-rez radar. I use it it with my Fire TV. The Fire TV chokes on the hi-rez version. And finally, another version from me. This one defaults to DC and uses hi-rez multi-location radar. https://k-a-0-s.github.io/ Here is some info regarding the hardware... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WeatherStar Hope that answers your questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Love to see this wording from LWX... The front will stall to the north across Pennsylvania keeping the local area in a warm and humid air mass through early next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Every pattern produces warmer than forecasted temps here.We’ve had a lot of cooler than expected tho lol. The issue is we haven’t had much in between. Our winters follow that type of variance, too. Last year we had a lot of 70s, but it was accompanied by wildfire smoke…which I’ll pass on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On main page if you click on a location it goes to a screen that looks like this, also none of the 'main topics' (forecast, rivers and streams, current conditions) open their dropdowns. You can type the zip or a location in the box and hit go and it works though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught the North edge of it and got more thunder and lightning a some more rain. Pretty tame compared to that earlier one. For such a small cell it was more intense than some of the lines that have come through here. Got .41” from the two, .30” was just from the first one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw that cell (one of only 2-3 smallish cells left on radar at that point) dead-on targeting B.Creek on my final radar check last evening and thought, "Bet Mrs. J stays up for this one." Sounds like you didn't have a choice... Currently 69 and muggy. Some showers to our SW threatened to graze us 30 min ago...like yesterday afternoon's storms, they've missed us, but a line of stronger showers, maybe some lightning, getting its act together and heading this way now. Gotta head out to cover the patio tables/chairs...so much for working out there today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size of it I just expected a quick normal garden variety cell. Was so wrong. I enjoyed it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
