They are popping around me as well. Outflow boundary passed me about 10 minutes ago and dropped the temperature about 8 degrees in a few minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just found out Jim Thorpe has a heat index of 105! These storms are already east of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have an old narrow truss bridge across the Delaware River at that location. No EZ pass there. They hire senior citizens to stand in the roadway and collect the tolls from motorists. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just dont want to see a microburst, one of those damaged my roof and balcony there by dropping a bunch of trees on it. The media is ridiculously bad out there, no one even reported it, I had to find out through the power company what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orographically induced storms are common there. Because it’s rural you won’t get much media information. Is there Nextdoor out there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but I haven't used Nextdoor (yet), I look at stations on wunderground for weather info. I have wifi out there and there's about three or four other local users whose wifi names pop up when I'm logging in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
