Heavy rain overnight in Stewartsville NJ 2.68″ LKC-001
The first round of rain came around 5-6pm resulting in nearly 1″ Then we had another batch around 9 pm that gave us about 1/4″ The rest came overnight with probably the highest amounts in the 3-6 am time period.
Above is a graph from my station. It clearly shows the bulk came around 3-4 am!
Here are more photos from yesterday including a faint rainbow.
A cold front approaching combined with the remnants of Cindi will give western new jersey a chance for some rain and thundershowers for the next 12 hours!
Some storms are already giving warnings in eastern PA and they are heading towards are area.
First off welcome to Summer! The Summer Solstice arrive just after midnight this morning. Longest day(light) of the year today! If you like warmer weather, welcome to summer. If you don’t like warmer weather, the day(light) will slowly start getting shorter which will lead (eventually) to cooler weather!
There is a slight chance of a thundershower this afternoon. Most areas will not see anything and this will not be widespread.
Tomorrow Thursday should be a nice day with humidity increasing in the afternoon. Friday should be an active day with a cold front approaching the area. At this time Saturday look OK after a few showers in the morning potentially. This all depends on what the remnants of Tropical Storm Cindi does. She is forecast to stay south of our area as the front pushes her south.
