Honestly, that's good. I hope it hits us with a lot of rain. The storms of last weekend parted right around us and we're now in desperate need of rain. Everything is wilting.

Like Brian said, We really need the rain badly . But, the ground here is so dry and hard that I think a heavy rain would just run off instead of soaking in .

Would be nice if they made it here but not likely. Was 86 when I left the hospital and it is supposed to get worse as the week goes on. Radar shows them on a path to go right below us again.

Gees, PG, it's about damn time. Now I hope it rains instead of blowing the roofs off houses, like it did just east of us the other day in Lancaster.

Dude I'm gonna have to tarp the car if it rains heavy. The hood needs a new rear seal and it won't be in until Thursday. If water runs down under the hood there, it will go right onto the brand new coil pack I just spent almost two hours replacing and ruin it. I will be seriously pissed off. So yes, bring us some rain, but a nice steady rain. No monsoon downpours, please!

John - looks like you got some good rain on the first wave. We just got a splash. That second wave of rain should give us more. :)

Quit being so picky! We need anything we get. Guys were standing in the river fishing near Corning where it is normally 3-4 ft. deep. They had beer coolers and were on dry ground. There are almost no tankers on the roads anymore since they shut down water withdrawals.

Oh I know. But I think Nixon is right about the heavy rain runoff VS soaking in. I'd love to see it just rain for a couple days, but I know that won't happen.

We are getting a shower now and more crossing lake Erie should be here in a while. Good enough to wash out the satellite signal.

Brian, didn't get a lot in that first wave , maybe 10 minutes worth of light-moderate rain . Was glad to get that ! Hopefully We'll get some more shortly .

Storm pooped out for our area. Looks like Bill is going to get the most if that cell over the lake holds up.

I see a line heading towards us right now, but it seems to be petering out. Tomorrow evening is when they are currently expecting the magic to happen out here, sotospeak.

We got a nice shower but not nearly enough. Hope this next batch holds together till it gets here. Seems the heavier rain went just SW of us again. Their corn is 4-5 ft. tall while ours is lucky to be 2-3. 20 miles makes a world of difference at times.

i'd gone over a bridge & went as quickly as i could 20 blocks through the strip & realized rain was approaching & my umbrella wasn't w/ me. my friend called & they were literally a few blocks away. he dropped me by @ the last block i needed to get thru. block. so i went in, gave my resume, bolted so fast. made it to my block, thanking God i'd worn my wellies. a bolt clapped. then, as i reached near my place, all of a sudden, the dark clouds were one second before me 'an there was sunniness just ahead of me. i got in, & the storm just, just passed us on by. wow.

my 1 friend said oakland got hit a 'lil, rusty. the clouds were being lazy, so i dunno where that storm went. it was heading over the rivers earlier- if i was looking north from the strip, facing liberty ave., they were going southwest. kinda overcast here. we'll see. i quit watching the weather & just listen to the locals. 'joe said it would!' was correct like twice.

Eh, it grazed us enough to show some cloud cover, nothing else happeneing. Now it's clear on the radar

So, what You are trying to say is ..... Thanks PG , You're no better at predicting the weather than NOAA !
I have to agree with You . But then Lorelei is does so many other things better . Wait, that sounds odd .

We had a nice downpour between 1:00 and 2:00 pm, but it's been sunny since. I just got back from the grocery store with a wagon full of food and my two 4 year olds. Sunny, but very humid.


Fireworks start tonight at 9:45 pm.
Here's the latest from the Weather Channel...

I don't know if it is PG's forecast or JEV blowing a lot of hot air out around Cleveland. Seems the storms just start sliding south after they pass him. Sure wish they would come east to us. The shower we had cooled things down but did not bring much moisture to us.
