Thunder Road Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Just curious...is elevation a factor in this event? Like Tobyhana is higher and therefore the hail has less time to melt? Or could the same thing happen at any elevation with stationary or training storms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think it matters as these storms are pulsing multiple times with impressive cores. Despite rather weak shear, the local convergence, instability and updraft strength is allowing these storms to go to town (freezing levels around 12,000 feet).

chrisNJ Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Is it really 51 up there?? That is insane combined with that much hail. I was just out and it feels very humid and in the mid to upper 80s here. Getting dark skies in the distance now. :snowman: On 8/19/2011 at 7:11 PM, mike2010 said: 51 degrees out right now....lightning is practically coming in sideways... insane environment right now. everything is covered ! more pics soon hopefully.

I'm in the western end near macungie and alburtis. It was raining for 5-10 minutes before the hail started. Hail lasted for 5-7 minutes and ended as rain. Letting up now, and brightening in the distance. Not much lightning for a storm of this strength, but the wind, rain, and hail made up for it.
