Color me impressed with how dark it just got ahead of the main line. Street and patio lights all popped on. Looked like a thunderstorm in civil twilight and it was lunchtime. 

I had to turn my lights on.  Haven't seen it that dark at noon in a long time.  

The rain with this storm is intense.  Currently have a 7 in/hr rate.  

Had a random and unexpected downpour this morning.  Was a little late to work.  lol

Smoke is pretty bad out there now.  Can see the haze just across the street and can smell it pretty good.  Visibility looks to be about 2 miles.  

12 miles from Center City and no buildings are visible from 400' AGL.  

Yeah, that smoke is crazy.  Had a very red sun this morning.  Expecting it tomorrow as well.   

Rain?  Seriously?  

Was smoky as hell this morning from the Burlington County fire. The winds changed and cleared it out.  Currently 71.4F with a dew of 64.  

Had a good looking storm miss me just to the north over Camden County.  There's even a nice little hail shaft in the middle there.  

Picked up another 2.26" yesterday.  Puts April's monthly total at 7.16".  

Up to 0.34" on the day.  Have a break in the rain now.  Waiting for the, hopefully, stormier stuff later.  56.7F

Picked up 1.17" of rain today for a 2 day total of 2.94".  4.89" on the month.  

Currently misty and 57F.  

Steady, moderate rain.  Temp dropping significantly.  66.6F (great temp )....Hit a high of 84.4 today.  Seemed much warmer than that.  

Currently 68F @ 4 AM.  But just 14 miles away at KPHL, it's only 58.  

Nice day!   Currently 78.6F but feels like 104.

I will be in Cape May tomorrow so hoping to see a good light show coming across the Delaware Bay. Im buckled up :

Watching storms roll across the bay are the best!

8 tornadoes with half of them being EF-2 or stronger?  With a sprinkle of 100 MPH straight-lines?   Yeah, we've got some kind of alley going on here.

One of Brett Adair's crew chase of the Bridgeville, DE tornado -

 

 

Great video.  Backlit tornado with a full rainbow.  Jackpot.   

Panorama from 150 feet above the ground, facing NW towards Philadelphia.  Was a great looking storm for sure.  Odd to see such a well developed shelf with a bunch of brown, leafless trees.

One of the most intense storms I’ve ever witnessed in my 30 years in this area. Sounded like a jet plane was overhead at the height of the storm. Couplet passed probably 5 miles north from my house. My brother in Yardley had quarter size hail and crazy wind but no tornado either. Winds here were easily in the 60-70mph range. Lots of power outages in my town including my house. Hope the generator works, I was literally about to tune it up for the summer next weekend…

I think we have a new mini Tornado Alley.  All these years in a row, now, can't be a coincidence.  Not bad for April 1st.  

And now we've got hail!   Pea sized!

This is weaker than I expected, but there's a bunch of cloud to cloud crawlers that looks pretty damn cool.  I saw some great looking storm structure from the drone.

I can hear roaring noises like the wind is high above ground strange.

 

I heard this same thing.  I actually said it out loud.  Went and checked the radar to make sure there wasn't a tornado coming right at me.  Strange for sure.  

Probable tornado in Delaware.  

Looks like it may turn into a pretty nice spring day.  Hopefully, we'll get something fun tonight.  Have 0.19" of rain on the day.  Currently 62.2F.
