Kevin Reilly Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I arrived home yesterday. I did get a few readings from my rain gauge from my sister-in-law who was here. July 31st to August 13th total rain here in Media was 4.88". Looks like Debby dropped 0.95" or so. Back home and the current weather pattern is opposite of a hurricane strike LOL. We are protected for now. Looks like a North to due South flow. A few isolated showers and dying thunderstorms up north. We have one sea breeze storm toward Ocean County. Otherwise, boring for now. Good Luck anyone who may be in Bermuda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DP only 59F/Hum 42% so the skies should be bright and clear. If anything positive, wildfire smoke above creates cool looking sunsets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolHandMike Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I went outside just now to bring the trash can back in and whoof! The smoke is back... I could sense it in my lungs for a full ten minutes after spending just a minute or two outside. It appears we have a new season. Smoke season. I am not a fan.

Birds~69 Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 66F/DP 64F @ 12:05am AQI up to 66 from 64 from earlier today. Have to do outside work tomorrow...with the predicted high of 90F, higher DPs and crap in the air it won't be fun. And add to the equation...

ChescoWx Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 So far in August we are averaging slightly below normal temperatures. Today will be the warmest day we have had in over a week across the county with temps in the mid to upper 80's. Rain chances increase tomorrow and through much of Monday. A general 1" to 2" of rain look possible. We turn back to below normal temps by next Tuesday and that should last through much of next week. Chester County records for today: High 101 degrees at West Chester (1988) / Low 43 degrees at Coatesville (1979) / Rain 2.45" at Devault (1966) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I'm calling it the first fall airmass next week with highs in the mid 70's. More smoke because the airmass is dropping in from the north? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Reilly Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Cloudy Temp 72F humidity 77% dewpoint 65 wind south 4 mph. Low last night 71. Rain knocking on the door to our southwest moving northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Not our best weather weekend on the way. Some showers have already moved through the county this morning with more on the way through the weekend. We should start to see clearing later in the day on Monday. We then fall to well below normal temperatures starting on Tuesday...in fact on Tuesday some higher spots in Chester County may struggle to escape the 60's for high temps. We should see high temps for the remainder of the week staying in the below normal 70's all work week. Chester County records for today: High 100 degrees at Phoenixville (1944) / Low 41 degrees at Hopewell (1979) / Rain 5.28" at Coatesville (1928) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 another joke of forecasted heavy rain event today thus far. These dying t showers are worthless from the Ohio Valley. The PWAT's modeling maybe high but the NER's are off the charts. IMHO, the NERS must be weighed against the PWAT to determine realistic probabilities of heavy rain events. With the constant debris stratus clouds and no diurnal sunshine, the convective aspect for the formation of high PWAT ratios are essentially nill and with the NER's so low too, its impossible to achieve heavy rain events. Lets hope the sun peeks out later somewhere west of Reading before the sun sets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 This satellite picture in the last hour explains my previous post. Look at the ohio valley where there is sun- thats where the heavy rain/t storms are. NO convective environment anywhere in E PA . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 flood watch? How about a dry watch? I hope this atmosphere starts to moisten up soon with some convective cells but I am afraid the flood watch maybe canceled. Almost feels like last years winter is approaching because of the Radar virga LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Rain chances ramp up again this afternoon with some spots especially to the northwest of Chesco in line for some heavy rain. Another round of showers tomorrow afternoon with a sharp cold front passing through from west to east toward rush hour. By Tuesday temps will fall to well below normal levels with some higher spots on Tuesday not escaping the 60's for afternoon highs. Some lower spots may actually touch the 40's for lows by Wednesday morning.
