Itstrainingtime Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago 3 hours ago, Itstrainingtime said: What looked like several days of temps in the 90s this week might end up with only one day. Today is a maybe, tomorrow is a likely not while Thursday "seems" to be a lock or close to it. 93 currently. Looks like we'll get 2 days but no heat wave. Back door cold front to the rescue tomorrow.

Yardstickgozinya Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Yeah I heard the second 2 hours ago, paweather5 said: Another one just got hit and is working fire off of Lewisberry at school house Ln. The fire in my neighborhood turned out to be a shed fire, and the property owner was able to get the fire out before the fire company arrived. I heard sirens heading to another emergency shortly thereafter. The School house Ln fire was probably where they were heading. Hopefully everyone's okay. It wasn't the most strokes that i've ever seen, but man, the groundstrokes meant business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted 2 hours ago Author Share Posted 2 hours ago The Tamaqua Split held strong last night. It sure looked like I was going to be under the gun for a good chance for a good storm, but some cells moved northeast of me, while the main area moved southwest. End result? No lightning, no thunder, and 0.05" of rain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
