    For sure. Could have been much worse than it was. My people at the dance studio were asking me all sorts of questions, what to look for on radar for tornado threats, how to read velocity. Was pretty funny to me that they actually wanted to know all the nerdy details. I am incredibly glad we closed Monday night, could not have imagined having a dance studio full of kids, parents traveling and such. Two other studios in the area stayed opened and we heard they had families trapped for hours because they just couldn't travel home.

    I read CPT's PWS from yesterday -- lot of straight line wind damage, but they did find some clusters of intense damage in southern York they were going to investigate further today. Didn't say where, I wonder if it's the Glen Rock area.

    Yay!

    Kiddo and I ventured north into PA. Had to turn around once in PA and take 83 as York Rd was closed in PA. So many trees down everywhere. Numerous on houses, lots of large branches and trunks cut up along the sides of roads, power is completely out in Shrewsbury and Stewartstown. Never made it west towards New Freedom, too many roads closed. Giant and Walmart in Shrewsbury were handing out water and ice, taking cash for non perishable items.

    I heard they were heading out to Glen Rock, Shrewsbury over towards Stewartstown. Friend sent some reports in to WGAL from Stewartstown and they said NWS would be out today

    I have friends in Glen Rock and they said it was mayhem. Just a mess. We closed the studio again tonight, most of the area in and around Stewartstown doesn't have power, and we've heard from quite a few of our families who are all dealing with cleanup in their backyards. Definitely a large area along the MD/PA line all dealing with the same mess.

    Bad. My drive from the house to Hereford was nothing but downed trees everywhere you looked. Can only imagine what things are like once you get off the main roads. Coworker who lives in Freeland said it was equally bad at his house. Shrewsbury/New Freedom/Stewartstown area is a mess. Rotation went through Glen Rock, again a total mess.

    it wasn't terrible overnight, boring but not awful. but i knew she'd be bored out of her mind today if we had stayed home, so had her pack a bag and she's on her ipad while i get some work done. Mr map stayed home with the dogs, will keep us in the loop on the power situation. He and I barely slept, but at least the kiddo got a good night of sleep hahaha.

    Kiddo's camp is closed today, so we packed up and went to Hunt Valley where my office has power. So many trees down in Parkton. Power was out as far south as Hereford before we jumped off York and got on 83. A coffee from CFA never tasted so good.

    12+ hrs now and still no power
  11. mappy
    Still powerless. Thankfully it’s less humid out so opening the windows is quite nice in the house

    My favorite clouds. we were incredibly lucky at the house. Just debris and some smaller branches. Every neighbor around us has bigger limbs and branches down
  13. mappy
    Mammatus clouds! Neighbor three houses north lost a shed. Coworker in Shrewsbury has a tree on his house.
  14. mappy
    Yeah big rumbles. It’s a mess in my part of Parkton. Hearing trees down all over, up into PA. Neighbors all around us lost trees and limbs.
  15. mappy
    So many sirens
  16. mappy
    Yeah trees down all over York road. Watched the county come pull them off the road. Next door neighbor lost a big one. Another had their canopy shredded. So glad we took ours down. Lot of branches and debris in our yard but no major tree damage

    Just before it hit. Power went out immediately. Windy as hell.
  18. mappy
    Darkness approaches to my west. Power already flickering. Good luck everyone.

    Quick spin up along the PA line to my west. That supercell in PA is about to be devoured by the line. Distant rumbles of thunder at my house.
  20. mappy
    Long lead time on those warnings. That Frederick cell is warned all the way to me.
  21. mappy
    No, not a derecho. We are in the warm sector out ahead of a cold front, with some juicy parameters. Caution is always best in situations like these.
  22. mappy
    It absolutely is. I was anxious about just having to travel later in it, having a safe place at the studio should we need to shelter, and all that. Just too many moving parts when people are coming from multiple areas to the studio for classes. Not worth all that risk.
  23. mappy
    Made the call to close the dance studio tonight. Just not worth the risk to families. A first for me hahaha telling a business to close hahaha
  24. mappy
    Friend who is in deep creek says its hailing out there
  25. mappy
    yeah tornado probs not as high as it could be, the wind though is gonna be our biggest threat. contemplating whether i need to advise the dance studio owner to close tonight out of caution.
