3/10-3/11 Storm


Thunder Road

Recommended Posts

Six inches in the Schuylkill watershed will flood Reading, Pottstown and Philly along Fairmont park. Channel 10 better start preparing to cover this historical flooding and EM managers throughout the Delaware and Schuylkill/Susquehanna Rivers be prepared. Six inches of rain on top of the 2-3 inches earlier this week would indeed be historical- definitely more than Floyd and approaching Agnes flooding levels. That is pretty gutsy of Glen to say that. That is like saying it will snow 36 plus inches in Tamaqua. I do trust Glen though. Well I could not resist

I was hoping I was wrong- I guess I was right

Well this is the heaviest wind driven rain I've had since moving into the current house (since Fall 2009). A few small streams of water have made their way dripping down the front door. Looks like a lack of flashing that I never noticed. Something for me to do over the weekend, but man is it raining and windy.
