Looks like a good chance of storms area wide the next couple of days. Currently Western Jersey and Eastern PA looks to be getting hammered with some nasty ones.

Chances are really the next 24-30 hours. Models will not pick-up well on slowly moving localized drenching downpours. Both ARW and NMM are best suited for this and they both show pockets of 3-4" rains with much lesser .25-5" not too far away from those embedded pockets. In this situation regional or localized heavy rains are much more favored than wide-spread heavy rains.

Anyway it better rain. 95-100 temps are back in play late week, and it really looks hot all of next week too. Oppressively humid and tropical out there right now.

The most lightning activity right now is in metro Philly and central NJ

Some decent showers beginning now. I may actually get something out of this.

Went outside. Dark grey clouds overhead are moving very rapidily from the south.

If this misses me I give up completely. Already a forerunner band of heavy rain working south to north fell apart right on my doorstep. All I got out of it was some light rain and it was 50dbz rain as it got on top of me. But this area working in from the west has caused Mt Holly to put up a flood advisory for my area.

Very dark in Springfield right now. Looks like a big line is headed right for us.

Very dark outside. Looks like it's going to pour.

Looks like I may be missing out on this first batch, again. I hear thunder in the distance, but only light rain thus far.

[metfan4life]

Starting to rain.

[icehater]

Fnally - very heavy rain here - has knocked out my satellite signal. No thunder.

[NYBrit]

Light rain here so far. Hopefully some of those heavier bursts will come my way.

[icehater]

Deluge here - now with thunder.

[NYBrit]

Heavy rain now. It's good to see. Seems so long since we had rain like this.

[NYBrit]

NOW it's a deluge. Good to see. We need this rain and who knows when it'll happen again.

[metfan4life]

Torrential downpours right now with thunder and lightning. The wind is also picking up.

[Stormchaser]

Drought finally breaking.

Up to 0.76" here with tropical downpours. Very humid, 75F dew point. Hopefully a lot more where this came from.

[icehater]

Moderate rain here now with a brightening sky. But radar showing more heavy showers developing south and moving up. It is really tropical outside now.

Coming down sideways in downtown Manhattan

[icehater]

In and out of heavy rains here now. Sun trying to break through also. Stream of heavy showers riding north look to come in here with the heaviest one down near Toms River. I'm up to 1.01". No wind with any of this activity. Some light-moderate thunder - all high sky.
