There are sure to be some rogue stragglers, which could absolutely pack a quick punch, but I was speaking more to the main cluster. Things do usually move in quicker than guidance suggests though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water running everywhere. Yeah my buddy said he had the tiniest bit of heavy rain near Marietta Avenue and it immediately started running everywhere, ground just has no tolerance for it around us. Hope it's a not a bad scene later and the storms move through in a quick manner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sure looks like that weak batch out in front will help limit the severe. Welcomed news if it pans out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't go outside in normal clothes close to sunset. The swarms reminded me of Canada boreal forests Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk There's actually been some crazy fungal infections popping up in the hospitals that are not generally seen in our area. My buddy's been in the hospital for a couple days with some kind of a fungal infection that's attacking most of his organs, including his heart. I don't think it's really made big news yet but I i think this might be something we'll be hearing about In the coming weeks. My understanding is this could be a health risk that we're not used to dealing with around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightning bug nymps need ground moisture to complete these processes. This is a pretty good lightning bug year but I don't think it's the best in a decade but i'm not going to argue with you about a bug lol. It also really depends on where you're at.

The Susquehanna is the largest river basin in PA, with the widest river channel. Had that event taken place 50-75 miles east, the Delaware would have had to handle the brunt of the water drainage, to which the disaster, I believe anyway, would have been much worse I don't know as much about western PA river basins, but I suppose that might have been worse, too. I never really thought of it that way, but you're probably correct. I don't know if it means anything, but seeing that alot of western pa. flows into the Mississippi drainage make me assume that they can handle some pretty big water out there.

Cicadas, katydids, lightning bugs frogs, crickets, storms and the periodical cicada. remove any one of these from Pa summers, and I would probably move somewhere else or hang.

At least down here, our flash flood threshold was .50" of rain in one hour. The potential for much, much more was very real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All indications were for heavy rain, so the watch was warranted. I was just being a smart ass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
