I'll bet it is - a lot of close strikes here. Rain is just getting going even though we've been under reds for 10 minutes or so. Severe warning here as well.

I have been watching that cluster much of the afternoon and it has been really slow-moving and generally just training over those poor areas in Berks that were hit the past week.

KamuSnow Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 6.1" in 35 minutes. Almost as much as we got Tuesday in about 5 hours. Our back yard is full of river rocks now, lol (waah). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Di Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I was out in it trying to get home. Nuts is a perfect description. Once in my lane I sat in the car another 5 minutes. Power went out for a minute. Safe and good with power at the moment. Had a little post traumatic stress as the rain was relentless just like that time years ago my area had a devastating training rain. That’s what this boomer felt like.

Hurricane Agnes Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Have only started getting some rain here in the past 10 minutes or so, with about 0.4"/hr. But getting a lot of thunder and lightning. Currently @ 0.13". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know getting 6" in way less in an hour wasn't on anyone's radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
