Some rainfall amounts over the last 24 hours Atglen 0.21" / East Nantmeal 0.29" / Chester Springs 0.17"/ Glenmoore 0.24" / Warwick 0.28" / Devault 0.20" / Kennett Square 0.15" / West Chester 0.26". Some additional steadier and briefly heavier rain should move through over the next couple hours especially NW parts of the county. Shower chances continue through Saturday AM before we dry out and cool down to start October.

Picked up my happy pills last night.  Seems I will need them being stuck in these clouds with showers for days and days.

Helene looking like a very impactful storm for many.

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As is the case with upper level lows, the forecast for the extended
is a bit tricky. The upper level low that will eventually absorb
Hurricane Helene will be positioned somewhere over the Ohio River or
Tennessee River Valley on Sunday with the region positioned on the
northeast quadrant of the closed low. This looks to bring some
unsettled weather, but no day will be a washout. We look to be in
for more days of clouds with periods of on and off showers until the
upper level low moves offshore or transitions to more of an open
wave. This looks to occur sometime Monday or Tuesday, though we will
not kick the clouds/showers until midweek, with guidance hinting at
a cold front coming through and a pattern change (finally).

Nine or ten days without seeing the sun, ahh depression can kick in now with endless days of clouds and on and off showers until the remnants of Helene kick out a week from today.

3 straight days with rain wow! .43" on the week. .53" on the month.

DP 66.  Yuck.  I couldn't open my front door to get outside this morning, went out the back door after I turned the AC on to run on low temp.  Yuck, but glad I don't live down south right now.  Those poor people.

Added another .10" most of it from drizzle

.90" September

By hook or by crook it adds up
