CoolHandMike Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I have water in my basement for the first time since we moved here almost 3 years ago. It's just seeping from a crack in the wall, but still. We live on a hill, and it didn't do that when that tropical storm dumped 5" on us so I thought we were in the clear. I guess that 3" we received on Friday plus today's rain is what it takes to do that. Good to know... Good to know... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to start prepping for any possible power outages/water main breaks. Which Newark? There are 2 of them in 2 different states (and pronounced differently to boot) in or near the CWA! And yeah, if that doesn't break up and move on, you also may end up with trees uprooting and falling on wires - even if there was not much wind. I noticed the motion had started west -> east earlier but then started going south -> north, but it keeps back-building over the Reading area.

LVLion77 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I am getting dry slotted! Look at the dry slot in action from west chester north to pottstown to lehigh county. Hopefully the action moves in from the west to break up the historically dry summer here.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
