Got a low pressure of 28.34 in. or 959.79 MB. Lowest pressure I ever recorded. Hope everyone fared as good as I did during the storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny and Warm Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 The Little Lehigh is the highest I have ever seen it. It is is also 20 feet from my deck. Ancient Oak people must have water in their homes and Spring Creek Rd is shut down It finally crested at 9am about 16" lower in elevation than the remnants of Tammy in October 2005. It was about 6" above Floyd's crest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUCK JOE BIDEN Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 rain gauge topped overnite at 6", so unable to get a total for the storm this does not look good however, as my work has a creek running through 2 holes which is a tributary to the perkiomen!

LVblizzard Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 building here as well, thought we might be totally done but this is almost enough to bring down large branches again The GFS hinted at this yesterday, it brought 60mph gusts to eastern PA in the early afternoon hours. That's probably not verifying but the GFS had the right idea...models like the NAM brought the strongest wind while it was still raining heavily.

Rainshadow Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 rain gauge topped overnite at 6", so unable to get a total for the storm this does not look good however, as my work has a creek running through 2 holes which is a tributary to the perkiomen! I remember after Floyd, they ran a picture in the local paper of the flag on the 11th hole at the Golden Pheasant Golf Course (which has a tributary of the Rancocas running through it). The water was literally up to the flag on that hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainshadow Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Just talked to my aunt in Marlton, NJ. They're being told no power until September 4. Wow, I'm in the next township over and we never lost power. Is she in a more rural area? On your side PPL says 200,000 without power, one of their worst outages ever.

tombo82685 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 finished with 6.52 in the dvp2 here in drexel hill...its going to be interesting to see what if any damage was done to the golf course tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On your side PPL says 200,000 without power, one of their worst outages ever. She's about 2-3 miles east of the 70/73 junction. I'm served by MetEd up here and lost power for about 3 hours last night. Actually really surprised they turned the power back on in the middle of the night. Figured they'd wait until the morning.

dryslotted Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Just talked to my aunt in Marlton, NJ. They're being told no power until September 4. Holy cow! I live in Marlton (near Traino's) and we had only a flicker the whole storm. My sister is more near Marlton Pkwy and I know they've been dark since last night. I am hoping she has an update on her's will be back on. I am not looking forward to sharing Sept. 4 with her... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Bethany Beach, Fenwick Island, Ocean City, Md all ok. Power only in OC. Don't see any major damage. A few downed trees, lots of downed branches. The Bayside is flooded pretty bad. Many of the streets in South Bethany under water. About 2.5 feet of water on the road in Bethany, but that happens every big storm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCT777 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Posting from my cell phone. Have had no power at my house in Spring Mount, PA for almost 2.5 hours. PECO told us they would have someone look at it early this afternoon, so hopefully it won't be off a whole lot longer. As others have stated, winds have been stronger since the rain stopped this morning than while it was raining. Have seen several branches down in my neighborhood, but no major damage at this point.

johnc Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Wow, I'm in the next township over and we never lost power. I can't believe we made it through without losing power... considering how often it goes out. We were lucky. Of course the winds are pretty crazy right now... so hopefully I haven't spoken too soon.

Voyager Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 On your side PPL says 200,000 without power, one of their worst outages ever. Lights flickered here a few times, but otherwise we've maintained power throughout the storm. Still raining lightly, 3.35" in the gauge so far.

BucksCO_PA Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Wow - winds have to be gusting around 50mph currently, hopefully the power holds out, would hate to lose it now after making it this far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
