  1. First tornado warning in PA down in the Philly area right now. Upper Darby to Plymouth area along and in between I-76 and I-476.
  2. Indeed. Wish my neighbor's son would have too, but I must admit, I'd have probably stayed as well.
  3. Storm made landfall at Ocean Isle Beach, NC which is 30 miles west southwest of Oak Island. Vested interest? My neighbor's son (and good friend) is in Oak Island for the week vacationing with his wife and they didn't evacuate. Just messaged him, but didn't hear anything back yet. I'm sure he went through the same conditions Cantore is seeing in Wrightsville Beach. As I understand, Oak Island had a 91mph gust just prior to getting into the eye.
  4. Thanks! I've been dealing with stones for years. The Foley bag is a first for me, though.
  5. To be honest, Tamaqua's nickname for many years has been "The land of the running water". As for winter, if I'm still unemployed, let 'er rip. As long as I don't have to drive in it, I'm down for a good storm.
  6. That's what I was wondering. Will a stronger storm track farther west, farther east, or not make much difference.
  7. Damn confluence is just eating away at my snow....oops, I mean rain. It comes up almost to Tamaqua, then just dries up like it's hitting a brick wall...
  8. Thanks! And if by nonsense you mean the snow talk, keep it coming. This is what makes our forum so great. Our sense of humor and good natured ribbing!
  9. You know it's 2020 when (in addition to everything else) the winter snow hounds are out in force on Aug 3rd. Now normally, I'd be out roaming, looking for flooding in this situation, but I'm house bound. A stuck kidney stone and a trip to the ER today led to me coming home with a Foley catheter. I'm relegated to watching this one from my front and back porch...
  10. Our 5:30pm storm here in Tamaqua was visible all the way down at the Mt Holly NWS office...
  11. 0.81" combined from round one (7:30am) and just now (5:30pm) round two.
  12. Yes, perhaps. Each model has it's heaviest axis of qpf in slightly different locations, but all are in the same general ballpark.
  13. Look at the Lehigh Valley. Allentown and Bethlehem with flooding issues if that map verified. I'd end up with about 2".
  14. It really seems as if you need a Charleston SC to Wilmington NC landfall to get the remnants into central PA.
  15. We get that a lot here in Tamaqua in the winter. The CAD will often have us 10+ degrees COLDER than Hazleton in the early morning.
  16. 4:00pm reading from Billtown... WILLIAMSPORT SUNNY 99 63 30 W15 29.75F HX 101
