Birds~69 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Still most impressive line of storms so far this season. Chester county over 50k without power, I'm one of them although rough stuff about 25 ne of me when it came by. No damage to report here, just power out. Sure as hell isn't myself or many others but I see your point. It was an impressive line just too far to my S/WSW... Super refreshing air coming in right now which is good...

Super refreshing air coming in right now which is good... I was thinking that although we don't usually see them in these parts (probably because of the elevation beyond the coastal plain that tends to break these storms up), this seemed almost like a derecho.... particularly since it held together all the way across PA, through NJ, and out into the ocean.

Morch Madness Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 What a frustrating storm. Best setup in years results in about 5 minutes of moderate rain and a couple blown over trash cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezweather Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 What a severe weather event. I didn't get winds above 40 at my location. The rapid changes were unreal. I couldn't see anything at the height of the storm. Saw small branches/leaves get blown all over the place. Thankfully, didn't see any damage. Now other locations were pounded with numerous trees down. Seeing reports of winds to 70mph, which was exactly what the Severe Thunderstorm Watch had early in the day. Glad I warned folks earlier in the day about this threat. Glad I headed home before the storms hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Accuwx is reporting that a spotter reported a funnel cloud near Blue Bell. 5:42 p.m. EDT Tuesday: A funnel cloud was spotted near Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, a National Weather Service trained spotter reports. I believe it because whatever the hell passed over me was pretty nasty. PECO is reporting 163,000 outages in SE PA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I was just about to post about tonight's sunset ... sort of a pinkish-orange glow to everything. An iPhone photo wouldn't do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 My niece called about 20 minutes ago and asked how she could go to sleep when the sky was so bright and yellow-orange... at night! Agree that it was hard to capture the yellow/orange and blue of the sky with an iPhone, although I noticed an accidental video clip of it did get the blue in there. KYW just said that PECO is now reporting 214,000 outages - Delco has the most followed by Chesco. PATCO is also shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sky was bizarre a little before I took this picture with the early mammatus. Felt like i was looking at a 3D picture that was out of focus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBasile Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Lots of damage here. Has to be thousands of trees down. Probably half of Washington Twp is without power. Luckily not at my house. This tree snapped, then flew 50 feet across a parking lot where it stopped on these cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeEater Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 We got slammed down here, trees down everywhere, no power pretty much in the whole western end of the county. 255,000 so far without power in SJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman56 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 .41" in NW Chesco with winds that topped out at 12 mph. Garden variety storm for a very small garden. Saw the same mammatus at sunset as in previous pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treckasec Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Most intense storm I've ever experienced. Those winds had to be around 80 mph. Trees down in a lot of areas, and tons of leaves and branches around. Saw some mammatus clouds at the end. The sky turned a creepy green color during the storm and we lost power. I would believe it if a tornado blew through here, but judging by the widespread damage it was probably just a really strong storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 *sigh* tree.jpg Probably one of the reasons I'm not as big a fan of severe as I used to be, along with the 2 days of no power according to Peco. Although I was out in the field beyond hootin and hollerin until you could hear even stronger winds coming. Made it onto the porch about 15 seconds before this 80 ft. Black Cherry tree came down. Sad - it was a beautiful tree. Also got 0.70 inches of rain which gets mby to 7.31" for the month of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soadforecaster Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 could some one post the wind reports for yesterday, my weather station is still having issues so sadly I wasn't able to measure the wind speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treckasec Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 No estimated power restoration time in Taberbacle yet. :/ I think I'll be satisfied with storms for a while. Unusually strong storm. Saw a guy who crashed in to a tree after the storm which was pretty sad. Lots of trees down along with power lines. Even saw a tree uprooted. There was a window screen in my yard but it was not mine or my neighbors. Saw some really large branches in my yard and saw a tree that snapped in the middle. It was a battle zone yesterday but it looks better now. The orange hue and the lightning almost all night last night made everything feel eerie. Never seen the sky turn green like it did yesterday. Really hoping the power can come back. I also didn't get the wind speeds because we lost power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
