    Picked up another .40" today for a two day total (so far) of .93" Wind, of course, was insignificant in my backyard, with a peak gust of only 13.4 mph which occurred this morning. We had dinner last night at the Thunderhead Lodge on top of the Blue Mountain on 309 last night, and the wind was howling up there at 1,300 ft.

    .18 rain yesterday, .06 so far today. Went to reading yesterday afternoon and it was miserable driving with that heavier rain and wind down that way.

    A 5th tornado from July 18, 2026 was confirmed today. The EF1 tornado was on the ground for about a mile in Burnside Township, Centre County, PA where it downed and snapped approximately 200 trees
     
    What took so long?

    Joey Schultz The location played the largest role. The damage path was in very thick forest within the Sproul State Forest and near impossible to access on foot. Figuring out if any damage occurred from the storm and then where it occurred was extremely difficult until new satellite imagery came out. When it does not have a human impact, there will be no specific reports nor quick need to fly a drone to scan endless forest for a possibility of occurrence. Then, we needed to reach out to our partners and find someone who was willing and available to fly a drone to locate the damage path based off what we had from satellite imagery.

    Good morning everyone!
    Clouds will disperse from north to south today as drier air filters in across the Commonwealth, with our southern tier of counties being the last to break out of this muggier air mass later in the day.
    A stray shower is possible during the morning and afternoon, with rain-free conditions across our area from tonight through Saturday.
    Rainfall returns on Sunday as a system tracks across the Mid-Atlantic, with periods of damp/dreary weather during the week ahead while the system lingers off the coast.
    Rainfall may be heavy at times, meaning that localized flooding could occur late this weekend & during this upcoming week, though rainfall will trend more scattered and drizzly as the week wears on.
