Like you insinuated, if we lose $400, we still saved the $1200 in condo and rental car fees in lieu of sitting in rainy Myrtle. The rain may be gone for the second half of the trip, but they could very well have flooding for days/weeks. Well, if you decide to cancel, hopefully they cancel the flight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahantango#1 Posted August 4 Author Share Posted August 4 *Potentially historic rainfall amounts likely to bring widespread severe flooding to the area* There is increasing confidence that TS Debby will stall near the area Tues/Wed. Rainfall amounts will bring extreme impacts- help us get the word out! weather.gov/chs/tropical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some show 16-24" way back to Charlotte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 66 this AM. Hydrology here looks like we could take 5-7" of rain without much of any flooding in creeks and streams. This includes areas to our north that would flow down. GFS shows almost no rain here so lots of options still and not filling sand bags yet. Probably cancelling Myrtle today. The GFS cuts it off totally and does a loop eventually bringing it up the coast in 10 days.

Voyager Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 12 hours ago, Atomixwx said: Give it a rest. It's been made very clear by multiple people that the only reason the surplus exists is because it rained the first 14/19 Saturdays and you know water evaporates, runs off, and doesn't always just sit into the land, right? You're being as annoying as the dude who posts about Du Bois, Williamsport, and Bradford. Stop. I'm late to the party (as usual) but you are correct. If we all got 10 inches of rain each month JFM, and then hardly got anything since then, even though everyone showed a surplus, we'd still be bone dry with low stream levels and dead yards. I'd put more weight on a surplus if that 30+ inches was evenly distributed month to month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Most spots across the county have seen between 0.5 and 2 inches of rain over the last couple days. The most I found was at West Grove with 2.06" and the least at Devault with only 0.63". Shower chances again this afternoon. Tomorrow looks like the sunniest day of the week with temps well into the 80's and maybe 90 in some lower spots in Chesco. Rain chances ramp up again on Tuesday and look to last for much of the week including some remnants from Tropical Storm Debby. Chester County records for today: High 104 degrees at Phoenixville (1931) / Low 47 degrees at Coatesville (1951) / Rain 6.23" at West Bradford (2020) from the remnants of TS Isaias.

Atomixwx Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 So if East Nantmeal township gets 10" of rain, and subsequently has daytime highs in the 40s, and Marysville gets like, idk, a passing shower, is having five people fail to turn around and therefore drown, a tragedy or a nothingburger?

Jns2183 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Thanks haven’t looked at the models It's still very much uncertain. It's just that WPC seems kinda confident and God it would be a gut punch this year.

Channel 13 was the Accuwx station in Baltimore starting in the 70's back when Accuwx was definitely better than the NWS. But I also watched the DC stations. Bob Ryan disliked snow, but did the best job explaining the meteorology of storm threats imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
