Hurricane Agnes Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Ended up with a high of only 72 today but it was so muggy that I needed to put the AC on anyway. I got a not-too-shabby round 3 of rain that pushed up from the SE that added 0.75" onto my 0.31" to give me 1.06" so far for today (3-day total of 2.88" and monthly total of 4.83"). Currently in a rain pause with temp of 72 and dp 72. 4 hours ago, Albedoman said: Unbelievable- canceling Kutztown festival today over drizzle. These people must be out of their mind. You think it was 33 degrees and a cold ass rain with sleet outside. Its 75 degrees. The fair sponsors wonder why attendance will be down. Cry wolf and this is what yoou get. Music fest is just as bad. But get this, if the event was the garlic fest or baconfest, they would go on even if a hurricane was hitting them directly I was up there about 10 years ago on a muggy overcast and threatening day and i can see why they might cancel given how much of it is "outside", although they do have much of it normally under tents. Could be they were concerned about some cell that might pop up and upend stuff. 1 hour ago, Birds~69 said: Tornado warning...good stuff to the W. 1 hour ago, SmokeEater said: That's on the ground with damage.

Lady Di Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 This is my place on the Elk River where it goes out to the Bay. Getting pretty close to the cottages, however it should go under if it gets that far. Nice neighbor down there today sent these and moved a bunch of stuff for us. For reference I took the storm cloud pic last Saturday 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 Yes, there's still a tornado watch until 2pm. But until that line to our west clears the area, I imagine there's still a risk. Curious to see if the watch is extended a few hours based on the timing of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
