I apologize if it's already been mentioned. Looks like many of us around the area could be racking up those rain totals tomorrow night. -

https://www.tornadotalk.com/roundtop-ski-resort-pa-ef2-tornado-april-28-2011/ I was thinking about the last time I ever went to my basement. The same cell that dropped the F2 at Ski round top tracked directly over my home back on april 28 2011 right around 6:25am. It was one hell of a storm and it's the first and only time water filled up my window wells and flooded my basement. I just found this article, put together about it on tornado talk from 2021 With images and videos of the damage. -

I certainly can't answer any of your questions about the science. What I can tell you, is thst you're absolutely correct In you're observations. I actually brought this up in one of my posts during a storm this year.. I'm sure some people were quite confused by my statement, because of its goes against everything we've been taught and told. -

Smallie fishings has made such a great comeback around here. Last year was epic. My son has really started on a heater this year. I never specifically targeted them until last year , and that was only when my buddy came home from Maui . Even though I never specifically targeted them , I used to routinely catch them while bait fishing until around 2010ish then i rarely caught any until maybe about 4 or 5 years ago . By Last year I couldn't quit catching them while bait fishing. I caught and lost several absolute pigs last year, and over my life because I only use 3 pound test while bait fishing. I -

Its settled down here.. But it's been doing this on and off for a while, just not at that intensity, I'm going to live stream in case it does that again. That seemed to be the grand finale. If anything else should occur with intensity, I'll pop the live stream back up if I'm awake. All live stream post will be deleted after closure. -

Those little blips mean business. As noted earlier, this stuff looked extremely saturated at the base, although not very tall. It's hammering down snow and sleet here. -

I'm sitting in my truck in Mechanicsburg wrapping up some paperwork and there's a very snow squalish, low top convective look to the clouds out here. I'm not seeing any virga at this point..I love cold , but something about today made me consider laying my rake on the ground , tines up, and hopping on it ,hands behind my back. -

A few stills from my live srteam test yesterday . I was live streaming for over 5 hours yesterday at not a single person here could tell me if my link, sound, video were working from the forum end. A little frustrating I must say, unless of course it wasn't working from this end, which for I have no g****** idea. -

For the most part we ended up on the outside looking in. I think this is a pretty decent lightning event even for the Ohio Valley. Lots of talk about the duration and the sound of the thunder last night on the internet coming from out that way. I was really thinking that that would be us last night. Im dying for a lightning event like this.9 -

There's some severe risk on Thursday in the Upper Mississippi and Ohio valleys. Getting an expansion and shift this for east, is asking for a lot, but, I don't think it's outside the realm of possibilities considering the expansions, we've seen the last two weeks. Expansion/ shifts or not. It keeps up the pattern of early spring severe risk being displaced north and east. -

I'll behave myself, but this made me think of Mama June. In all seriousness, if humanity makes it untill the end of the month, I think it's possible. -

I finally got myself in good position and everything working. And everybody was gone. I'm under an overhang down the down the road at the moment I'll probably fire back up in case I catch any hail. -

https://www.youtube.com/live/ydEenO_UG5A?si=JKjNbfU132g1fkL_ If everything's working properly, this should be a link to my live stream. This is the first time i've ever done this . This is a test. I'm actually walking to a area where I hopefully can get some decent views to my west and north. I doready to pick me up. Anyways, if somebody would please stop by and let me know that everything's working properly, that would be fantastic. Walking through Fairview township at the moment feel free to stop by anytime. Thank you so much. I will be interacting very little if at all. , I have a lot of other things to pay attention to at the moment. Live stream should be up in just a minute or two -

The storms are really getting underway out in western pennsylvania. Notice the lightning just slightly deviating south in the area that I noted supercell characteristics. That could be lightning displaced in the anvil, though. No shortage of cells out in western pennsylvania, starting to ark although i'm seeing a lot more cell mergers than splits. Pretty decent amount of lightning for this early in storm development. -

Thermo dynamic and kinematic profiles are finally growing throughout the area, better indices are also adventing into our area.
