Here, I felt like I was going to die in my seat at that wedding yesterday with a 90 degree temperature simply because of the humidity. By the time the service was over, my shirt was wet as even my torso was profusely sweating. If it had been 89 you would have been ok?

Bubbler86 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Finally hit 90 at Rou today. Grass does not look any better than when I left despite the rain. 18Z GFS has a Beryl soaker rain in the LSV Wednesday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Heat advisories again for Monday and Tuesday. Pray we get rain Wednesday. I haven’t see the river this low I don’t think ever. Looks like barely 3’ of water in the channels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I'm not sure that anyone in this thread has had less rain than I have for the past few months. I don't remember the last time it rained at all. I will not believe any model or forecast until it's in my bucket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Most of the county is 2” behind in June alone. Water shortages up county. I agree with you. Station based rainfall observations, while nice for historical continuity do a horrible job of portraying ground truth of the surrounding area. I wish they would put a mesh network of solar powered compact weather stations 1 every 5x5 mi box (25 sq mi). So come on counting with its 550 square miles area would have 22 of them. The simple rain gauge on them can act as a ground check for the radar estimates which are not only help develop better rainfall estimate equations but we're allow us to have a lot more accurate records Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point here we are probably pushing our hottest (at MDT) first half of summer. We stand at 3rd right now when comparing to other years through July 15th. 3 of the top 10 hottest first half of summers are in the past 5 years.

We are definitely up there, but there is a bit more variability in the top 10. Plus we aren't anywhere close to even sniffing the big daddy of 1966Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 10 hours ago, Jns2183 said: Why was 1966 inflated? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Well, for one, it was at CXY, which is usually warmer for maximum temperatures than MDT. We can see 2024 is a lot closer if we compare CXY records. And two, it was way out of line compared to surrounding observations that summer. June 1966 was fairly close to normal in most of the region, but +3.3F at Harrisburg?

Prior to 61 you can read about the absurd locations and placements in those locations data was kept at. Id have to dig into more of the surrounding areas in general and specifically that June to answer second part further.

I’m located halfway between the 85 in Mount Wolf and the 92 just east of York city, and despite the sun having set it still definitely felt like upper 80s when I walked the recycle bin down to the end of our lane around 9 pm. There was just enough light breeze to make it slightly less suffocating than it has been for most of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
