Parsley Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Another example of plenty of warning, no concern........little league baseball fields packed with kids playing. I'm sure they'll wait til the last minute to call games off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Was a relative non-event here except for the rainfall, which is up to 1.12" as I type. Looking at radar, the old squall line kind of fell apart to my west, and a new one is developing to my east. In that time of redevelopment, we had more of an individual cell structure here, with nothing even remotely severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Yeah, extreme northern MontCo or eastern Berks. looking at the Noaa radar, it seems that allentown is in the zone. Little surprise with all the talk of wind damage in Northern PA, it does not look to terrible with line currently. Saw a few warned cells though.

I was talking about the southern extent of the nasty stuff. South of PTW, things are a little less impressive on radar (ateast at this moment.........I'm sure that will change and things will fire up).

mike2010 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 decent storm here that still seems to be in the strengthening phase. very little thunder, a lot of rain, some decent gusts close to 30mph. wouldn't be surprised to see another line later this evening / tonight with the front itself.

Voyager Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Was a relative non-event here except for the rainfall, which is up to 1.12" as I type. Looking at radar, the old squall line kind of fell apart to my west, and a new one is developing to my east. In that time of redevelopment, we had more of an individual cell structure here, with nothing even remotely severe. Just to make matters clear. I'm not complaining about the storms per say, and perhaps I should have worded differently. Within the heaviest of the rain, which was at 5" per hour at one point, we had what I'd think were a few good gusts. My new station only recorded a peak wind gust of 12 mph. Now, the visuals at that time were of leaf clusters blowing off the tree next to my house, rain blowing sideways, and water blowing off of roof tops. The cups were spinning quite fast I might add. If I didn't have the station, I would have estimated the wind gusts at about 20-30mph, not 12 mph. I'm trying to figure out if my anemometer isn't recording the right wind speed.
