das Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Cell near Clarksburg sounds like it has ducting thunder (elevated instability over cold inversion, amplifying the sound). Some of the loudest thunder I have ever heard. Not sharp cracks buy house shaking booms and rolls. Very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool. not terribly loud here -- prob not many strikes close by -- but the rumbles seem to be going on and on and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVclimo Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Rain’s about done here. 1.42” for the event. The last 5 weeks have been as wet as any similar period in my nearly 5 years in WV. Great start to the growing season after a dry winter. Over 7” now during that time. 2/21-22 0.66” 2/25-26 0.49” 2/28-3/1 0.41” 3/6-7 1.71" 3/10-11 1.94” 3/16 0.22” 3/21-22 0.21” 3/22-23 1.42” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the loudest thunder I have ever heard. Not sharp cracks buy house shaking booms and rolls. Very cool. Experiencing the same thing. Rolling thunder and windows rattling for 10 seconds just a minute ago. Sounds like thunder through a traffic cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CranberryWX Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I thought this was over but warnings are going out again for a batch of storms moving into WV from KY. It's kind of cold for a severe storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Some big rumbles of thunder and close lightning tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Found some time to post finally... Eff West Virginia forever. Saw some stuff including plenty of lightning and small hail covering the road while jumping between severe-warned cells. Got some loose low-level rotation in the cell that was just to the north of the cell that went over Charleston, WV. Maybe could have made the tornado in PA if we had decided to go north early on, but it would have been very difficult to run down in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
