stormspotterlive Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 For us here in the city I am impressed how the southern portion of the cluster is developing rather fast we too may now get in on the extreme rain fall action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsley Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Had 0.75" hail here in Perkiomen Woods in Collegeville at 11:15 PM that lasted for about 5 minutes. Nice! I thought I heard some small hail mixed with the rain for awhile, but didn't see anything when I checked outside. Looks like KOP to Plymouth Meeting is about to get hammered heading along the PA Turnpike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMolineuxLM1 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I still might be In the lightning game after all. Lines building towards sw Delco. We are out of the game on the sidelines dry, lightning like crazy north of us but we get shafted in SE delco. I have to wake up early to water the vegetable garden as we didn't get a lot of rain here in Brookhaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaoPos Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Got a firecall just as the lightning was getting close. Think I snapped a few pics of the gust front. Have to double check the camera. Looks like KOP is getting rocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormspotterlive Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Looks to me as if this boundary has now unexpectedly stalled more cells now popping in Northern DE. The K index map loop clearly supports the boundary being stalled now. We shall wait and see what additional convection fire along this. additional east of jersey on radar everything is moving north northeast. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/archiveviewer.php?sector=16&parm=kidx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
