Hearing a continuous roar for maybe 10 minutes now. I'm downwind of the potential tornado. Could that be what I'm hearing?

Manheim's quite a far ways from where the possible tornado would have been at.

Rotation looks to me like its really fallen apart. But the warnings have been posted recently for Southern York.

Well, 2 tornado warnings specifically for Maytown during the past 19 hours. We ended up with nearly 4" of rain last night, and had yet another downpour this afternoon, but as far as storms go, both pailed in comparison to the one that roared through here on Thursday evening.

Amazingly, my house has now been under a tornado warning 5 times this year already. My girls are ready for a break and wouldn't mind if we saw no more storms for a long time to come.

Yea, glad todays storm died out on the eastern edge and I like severe wx and snow. . I had 3.97 " of rain yesterday and I didn't need another day drying out. Looks like York Co from Hellam south got nailed.

Just got back from upstate NY to find my roof fascia in the front is gone. I guess the storm last night killed it? I wasnt hear so it was between noon Friday and 4 p.m. today.

Dammit.

The storm early Saturday morning was pretty crazy, not as bad as a couple thursday's ago, but still impressive. Funny thing was, it rolled through not long before we were headed to NJ for the softball tourney, we caught up to it and i had to drive through it as we headed east on the turnpike. Not a pleasent drive i'll tell you. Yesterdays storm was already through before i got home, but all our recycle and garbage cans were blown all over, as was our patio furniture and grille.

Had 0.60" from last night's storms. Even though the storm around 11:30PM didn't seem overly intense, it had more lightning strikes within a half mile of the house than we've had in awhile. Numerous house-shaking booms for about 20 minutes.

It's been relatively lame here for the past couple of weeks, hopefully we can get some severe wx going before the jetstream pushes to far to the north in July. Once we get some strong fronts it should bring some more excitement. If we don't then we practically have to wait until mid July for tropical wx to heat up.
