  1. 45 deaths reported so far in PA/NJ/NY. Horrible :\
  2. Was reading an accuweather article and 45 people died yesterday with more they still have to search for. Crazy That water must have been coming in so fast with so much force that it overwhelmed them and they got trapped in their basements and died.
  3. You saying a strong recurver probably means it's going to end up hitting land somewhere lol
  4. lmao "it's not too big, just a small one it seems like" yeah i believe him now when he said he's never seen a tornado in person
  5. I was complaining how I haven't been able to open the windows much the past month...well now it makes sense. I knew it was hot every night but didn't know it was the 2nd warmest. Thankfully its supposed to be really cool tonight
  6. Apparently the huge tornado in Jersey might have been an EF4. I was reading that it might be the most powerful tornado to ever spawn from a tropical cyclone ever. Also would be NJ's most powerful tornado ever Some of the houses are chopped in half and missing
  7. Yep seeing some potential 4 inch per hour rates according to some. That's insane
  8. Lee was a much longer duration event. We'll probably smash 1 day rainfall records compared to Lee in some areas which is definitely impressive in its own way
  9. This storm has it all. Flash flooding, record setting nonstop rain, tornadoes, 50mph gusts...what are we missing? Snow? lol
  10. Yeah I was kinda doubting it too because it seems like that happened way too quickly for where it's at and a lot of people do post around stuff that happened in previous years just to get more followers/likes etc. It happens a lot when big hurricanes make landfall too
  11. That's crazy. I was talking to my dad how I was surprised some schools didn't get canceled that are in flood prone areas. Stuff like that ends up happening
  12. The biggest bulk of our rain is gonna come later this afternoon/evening where we have a period of a few hours dropping 1-2 inch per hour rates. But it also matters where exactly the heaviest rain sets up so we'll have to see where that happens
  13. I read your message and didn't hear anything then a minute later it started to downpour and it was like oh lmao
  14. The heaviest rain isn't forecast to fall until later this evening after 4 pm or so I believe. Though the cutoff might be more extreme down where you are I think
  15. It's just been a torrential downpour here for a while now. If it's already raining this hard I really don't know how things are gonna look tomorrow morning lol
  16. I thought this was kinda interesting. I guess it gives more perspective on being in a high risk for flooding. Kinda mindblowing places in high risk accounted for 92% of all flood damage
  17. I was out on 81 near the Pike and was having it drizzle a bit but that was about it
  18. Basically since May 2019 there was only one high risk for flooding put out until now. Crazy
  19. Something I noticed was that central PA's worst flooding events were in 1936, 1972 and 2011 and all of them had 40 years give or take between them. So us getting another potential record so soon after Lee would be kinda crazy if it can rival those
  20. jesus lol...we got 10 inches from Lee over the span of 5 days in 2011...that would be Lee's amount but in less than half the time...
  21. A lot of people living in apartments don't have a yard to do that and if they do it outside risk getting fined or accidentally starting fires. People like that don't have things like grills either. It's easy to not realize how terribly off some people are if you don't live in their shoes. Some are completely screwed here.
  22. Hearing these reporters telling you to make sure you boil your water due to a boil water advisory and then seconds later say how so many people still have no electricity is just really funny. You can't boil water without power unless you have something that can heat up water like propane tanks etc which not everyone has
