Scott W Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Here in West Chester, high wind gust has been 34mph at 1:24pm. Lots of gusts around 30 all afternoon, but nothing real bad. They are far more frequent now as well. Rain total has only been 1.85", but I think the wind has had a lot to do with keeping much of it from getting in my weather station. Barometer is 962.5mb. Have had power all day with no interruption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief83 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Looks, based on radar, to me like the heavy rain is coming to end here in Mont. County PA. Maybe the winds will not mix down.and the worst - which wasn't bad, is over. Any thoughts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiburon Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Winds definitely picking up here. 3.75" rain today, 4.05" storm total to this point. 58/57, 28.39" (961mb). Unfortunately, my wind data is unreliable due to shelter, but the nearest station to my house is recording 32G37. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwarlock Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 people trapped in AC because their mayor told them to stay in shelters rather than evacuate even though thats what Christie recommended.

blizzardlover Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 In Pike Creek in northern DE. Winds have been strong, sustained around 30, but I don't think they've been gusting much past 50. Should I still be expecting 70+ mph winds here or do you think this as bad as it's going to get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
