JTA66 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Nice pic, Voyager! I remember about 10 years ago, we had a thunderstorm early on a Sunday morning. A neighbor's tree got struck, woke up everyone on the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A neighbor's tree got struck, woke up everyone on the block. Thanks! It was one of the loudest cracks I'd ever heard. I was awake and on the computer, and I nearly jumped out of my seat...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Already up to 85.7 here in NW Chesco - could we hit 90 for the first time in exactly 2 years?? Last 90 degree day was today in 2013 at 89.6. Highest so far this year has been 86.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Gaines Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 We had a CTG strike that hit a tree about 150' from my back porch yesterday morning. The result was this... 11751431_10207090350518436_7784893992167830284_n.jpg ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDoppler Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 At 11:25am ABE is up to 87 already, DP 73. @ Voyager, wow! I take it you didn't suffer any damage to any of your electronics? (hope not) Last summer a coworker in Jim Thorpe lost pretty much anything he had plugged in due to an even closer strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Reilly Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Here in Media Delaware County 95f here today highest heat index I saw was 111f it was consistently between 107-109 throughout much of the day. Today was the hottest day of the year right ahead of the day we were slammed by Severe Weather knocking out power to hundreds of thousands. We touched 90 briefly yesterday. This marks 90+ 5 times so far this year here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthDoppler Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I see the discussion about not getting to 90. I admit my (home) thermometer stinks, as where it is it's useless during the afternoon during summer. Yesterday I wasn't out driving, but today I was. Car said 91 from Trexlertown to Alburtis. (open fields/towns and lowlands) When driving up my forested hill to 900', it got down to 86 up here on the car thermo. (that was around 3:30PM give or take 5 mins....should be close to the daily high) I think in this region of PA you see big differences from seemingly small elevation increases because you are not only going higher, you are going from mini urban heat islands to mostly forested land. (at least for a few miles here and there.) In winter the difference shrinks a little due to the leaves falling, and the decreased solar energy. (and long nights when cold air often sinks.....and our little elevation can't overcome that like in the Alps or Rockies, ect.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Yup, only 87.9 for me for a high. Obnoxious DP pushed HX to 98 however. Both of us are in a heavily wooded area. Just can't get to 90+ here in the "soaring hills" of NW Chester County....only 85.6 today here and also at KMQS in Coatesville. Driving in similarly wooded areas just 200 feet lower than here today it was 88.....as soon as I drove up the hill toward my place....85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmorninglight Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 84 now with sun finally breaking through clouds. Do we hit 3 90+ days in a row? I think so. Low of 79 2 days in a row too. Looking forward to camping trip to Adirondacks next week. Nothing like mid 40s for lows in late July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds~69 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Only 75.1F w/clouds but DP in the low 70s yet again which makes it feel uncomfortable. Sun trying to break out but hasn't yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
