  1. That was the attitude of my father yesterday(who also lives in Levittown) when I called him telling him and my mom to take shelter asap. I had to literally tell him it was confirmed at the bridge for him to take it seriously even though there was a tornado emergency warning. I think it's a pretty common for people to ignore the warnings around here because while tornado warnings aren't that rare around here, actual violent tornados don't typically happen from them. We've seen several now this summer. Great pics btw, very sobering.
  2. Going to check out the Delaware by Trenton in a hour or so. I'll try and take some pics on top of the levy in Morrisville if they will let me go up there.
  3. Beautiful morning. We got down to 58f. First feels like fall day.
  4. Back edge will probably be through around midnight but looks like the heavy stuff has just about ended. 5.6" on the event, may see another .1 or .2 before it's over, don't think we'll hit 6. Hope I can get to work in Trenton tomorrow or hope Murphy closes the state. Can't believe the Delaware river is already flooding, won't be surprised if it crests higher than predicted.
  5. Over an inch in the last 30 mins and still pouring. Up to 5.1" on the event now. My guess is we are seeing flash flooding in the area but not venturing outside to find out.
  6. Thankfully we've missed a lot of the heaviest rain so no flooding in my area but still up to 2.8" on the day. Areas just 5 -10 miles away though like Fairless Hills are almost double that.
  7. Thankfully nothing doing here. Scary few minutes though, wish I could explain how the sky looked, just very ominous and black with clear rotation in the clouds.
  8. On a side note, the Delaware is now forecasted to crest just below moderate flood stage in Trenton and moderate at Washington crossing. Will be something to watch as this morning it was forecasted to only reach action stage.
  9. Steady rain for the last hour. About .5" in addition to the .5" this morning brings us up to an inch. We ll see if that heavy stuff works it's way east or just trains to the west.
  10. No offense, but can you read? Please quote me where I said it has diminished for all of SE PA? I specifically said the 95 corridor. 1-2" of rain over 3 hours isn't going to cause widespread flash flooding. I posted the HREF maps above, the heaviest rates at 1 hour, 3 hours, and 6 hours are all N and W of the 95 corridor.
