MAG5035 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 3 hours ago, Jns2183 said: Here are my best rates. Gauge topped out at 5" at 9:44am and stopped. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Boy that was quite a sustained period of 2”+ per hour rates there. I had nothing like that rate wise, a lot of the time being under half an inch per hour and only a couple times it was briefly over an inch per hour (1.4/hr max rate). That saved this local area from seeing any real significant flooding issues this morning. My event total was still pretty much right at 3”, which was much needed here since I’ve missed just about every storm that has fired up nearby in the last few weeks. Despite all the rain last night and this morning, the yard is still solid enough for a mow with the sun out… maybe after the humidity drops. It’s cracked 80 here and the dewpoint is still about 73ºF.

canderson Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Looks to me like tornado damage in Harrisburg and not straight line winds - we’ll see what NWS results are. I posted at 4:30 am when it woke me up not realizing that’s what I was hearing. Scary in retrospect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
