My money says the High res GEM is what we see tonight. It seemed to have the best grasp of the heat.
-
Weathergods: "Shoot, missed 'em by that much" They sure like pushing you around! hehe
-
Yeah, but the observationals clearly had the signs. A pressure below 29.8, 80% RH and 98F temp.... its like accidentally discovering plutonium.
-
Interesting, the tops the 160 year old sycamores and poplars are starting to blow about. High was 98F today. Hi Barometer was yesterday around 1:30pm at 30.78.
-
Hit 98 here today
-
The Davis says 4.77 inches and a max rain rate of 10.11/hr here in Pottstown (record rate since records began for my station) Commute from Green Lane was hell, took two hours. Had to turn around several times. rt 100 and 663 both closed in spots. Perkiomen, Unami, Manatawny and Swamp Creek all over flood stage.
-
Quite a wallop here in Green Lane. A few close strikes have cause the lights to momentarily brown before gradually over-brightening (weird) . Between Reading and Pottstown 422 is flooded over the Median. A weir has been made out of the median holding the water on the westbound side.

Broke out some new wiper blades last night, this last batch wore out pretty quickly.
-
I thought the visible cloud cover looked more fearsome than what the actual storm was, probably why it looked worse on radar too. Is it possible to have a virga tornado?
-
Got a piece of that line earlier. Some circulation but not quite as tornadic as rounds 1 & 2.
-
heard the first rumble here in pottstown
-
Neat photos nature wasn't super revealing but water spouts have always been something of a mystery.
-
Barometer dropping rapidly. Very still today compared to the last two days, perhaps thats why there is a lower risk of tornados today. Wouldn't be surprised if there are more reports of severe hail today. It will be interesting to see if the second line holds together tonight. Forward velocity seems slower today.
-
Work lost power. Hopefully the factory will be open tomorrow, PPL doesn't know yet. Supposedly the Quakertown tornado touched down in Fox Hollow golf course which is only about .25 miles from my work. I saw what I thought was just a rotating cell with no touch down. Shoulda chased it!
-
Looks like im about 3 miles south of the main action
-
A few dime size stones in Amity Gardens last night at about 6:30 pm
-
Feel like I dodged a bullet. I can't afford anymore hail entanglements right now. No more water either, no place for it to go.
-
A few blusters, many bolts, and a few drops of rain in Pottstown. Barometer is rising now.
-
What are you guys talking about? This weather is miserable. Too warm to ski, too rainy to garden, and too cold to BBQ
-
I was about 5 miles north of Green lane during the storm. Didn't see anything exceptional other than 30 mph straight line justs. The Davis gauge in Pottstown recorded a rain rate of 7.03 in. per hr though!
-
More like hit by the pitcher.
-
Made some pretty high rain rates on Saturday Morning especially for no thunder 3.39"/ hr
-
Indeed, I fell for it too. I thought the meso's would be lit up like Notre Dame, but this is just normal April/May weather. I think people just forget what the climate is like year to year. Maybe the media is all over it because of the holiday? NWS doesn't seem all that impressed, just a FFW which are hardly out of the ordinary considering the last year. Kinda Ho' Hum.

It would keep us open into April

The Greek Orthodox Church tends to make a bigger deal out of Candlemas which is a Christmas related holiday, namely it celebrates the end of the season of Epiphany. Its date is Feb 2nd. The Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem celebrates Christmas on what would be January 19th of our calendar. The precedent is certainly set.
