PottercountyWXobserver Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Looks like I took my storm shield with me when I moved to Hazleton...big storms jumping off to my NW.... haha I know how you feel, although we did manage to squeeze in some pea size hail today Most of the action was just to the SE of here, but none the less very active and entertaining. Here is hoping tomorrow can bring the nasty well without to many problems for those that don't like it. For me, call me crazy but If I'm going to experience an epic hail storm or any storm for that matter (golfball size or larger) I don't mind paying for the damage, heck if possible I'd gladly pay for crazy snow and severe storms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I so wish that we could get a nice run of dry weather. I'm tired of walking in mud all the time. Hoping for a nice weekend for a change around here. 2 kids playing in 2 tournaments in 2 different towns...it would at least be nice if we didn't have to worry about weather issues for once this spring.
