cbelke Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Well, my VP2 says 1.10" so far. It came down pretty good around 3:30 am. Checked my stratus rain gauge and have 1.02" in the bucket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambient and stratus at 1.10" One of the few times they have matched exactly, haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been noticing it being further off than usual. Its coming up on two years old so should look at replacing the battery before winter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Lets see how this goes. From 6z, the meso model that got the morning convection the best was the HRDPS. It then showed afternoon convection focused from the Lehigh Valley up into northern NJ along with Jersey shore counties. Elsewhere, not as much activity other than a cluster near or just north/west of Philly late this afternoon. Always a crapshoot. Lets see who fails at 12z. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the 17 years I have had the VP2 I have found it consistently under reports rainfall.....which is why I do not use if for my data set of records. Only the manual gauge. I did an analysis a few years ago and found it is off by as much as 18% 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should see storms pop up in nw burbs and everywhere else as day goes on into night If we ignore the Nam (a good idea often) there would be a stripe of heavier stuff near and north of I-78 and then more convection later today along the coastal plain. Interesting to see if there is a rip off zone in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
