The west valley had some wild weather with a major microburst that caused a lot of damage (80mph winds). My family from Poland flew into town just before the skies erupted after sunset. Check out the radar loop and you'll see the outflows created the storms. I wish I stayed up to watch it but I was in bed by 8:30pm! It's humid out there this morning...may we see a repeat tonight???

One more cloudy day today before a great stretch of weather through at least Monday. Cooler starting tonight with some spots in Chester County possibly touching the 50's tonight and tomorrow night. Chester County records for today: High 100 degrees at Phoenixville (1930) / Low 47 degrees at Coatesville (1976) / Rain 5.17" at Nottingham (2021)

Foggy this morning

@snow_wizard not sure if you noticed but Seattle is not the same as it was in 2020. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/hey-seattle-and-king-county-you-need-to-talk/ At Seattle City Hall, a sea change has taken place since last year. If you go down there, you’d be excused for thinking you’re not even in Seattle anymore. On Tuesday during a meeting about public safety, you could hear it in the air, as council members took turns clamoring for more cops, more arrests and more incarceration for offenders taken up off the streets. “These people need to be in jail, I am super unapologetic about that,” one new council member, Maritza Rivera, said about repeat offenders, capturing the new tone. The city’s politics have shifted so markedly from the “defund the police” spirit of a few years ago that council members and others routinely take turns bashing that era. On Tuesday, another new council member, Rob Saka, called it a “shameful legacy.” Echoed interim police Chief Sue Rahr: “We need to get back to fighting crime. We got off track a little bit over the past few years.” The pendulum sure has swung back hard from the council’s anti-police heydays.

Smoke is getting bad here tonight. Going to try and go back to sleep.
