ezweather Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Watching this storm now with GRAnalyst 2.. There is some rotation with this storm. Anyone in the path of these storms, would not be surprised if an tornado could from these storms. That rotation would be over Wilmington and western Salem county.

ezweather Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Already hearing thunder at my location. Just add a little to this post here. The lightning looks very impressive. Wonder if I'll lost power with these storms. Had some issues later today with the power flickering off and on and then out. But back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMolineuxLM1 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 There really wasn't much wind with that cell but lightning was very nice and the rain was extremely heavy it sounded like it was trying to get inside you couldn't see far at all during it.

HM Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Coming out of Williamstown, going to Woodbury, structure looks awesome with this thing during lightning flashes. Sent from my iPhone 2 I'll tell you what, this year I have witnessed 3 different mesocyclones with pretty decent structure. After witnessing pretty strong inflow associated with the meso last Monday in the Mount Laurel area around 8pm, I got another opportunity yesterday in Mercer County. A decent transient supercell structure maxed out right over the county and we were heading south. There was a very well defined W.E.R/clear slot (like last Monday) with observed inflow and rotation. The inflow yesterday wasn't as strong as Monday's inflow but the structure yesterday was amazing (a lot of twisting scud / lowerings but no well defined wall cloud). Very strange convective season for sure...a sign of our very warm/wet summers as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernNJ Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Only 84 Severe Thunderstorm Warnings so far heading into August. The lowest total to that point since 1999, which had that horrific drought. We have had very few organized threats this year, far different to the last couple which had numerous MCS-type features crossing the CWA. There have been an abundant amount of thunderstorms, but mostly pulse nature and slow moving, which in turn has led to an unusually high amount of Flash Flooding. Tornadoes have also been missing, with just 1 so far and only 20 since 2005. From 2002 to 2004, by contrast, there were 18 tornadoes in the CWA. In fact, it was 4 years ago today that our most recent tornado to track more than 5 miles occurred (as well as the most recent to be rated above EF-1), up in Sussex County NJ.

greg ralls Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 We'd probably all be quite interested if a legitimate tornado threat visited the region. Doesn't mean anyone is saying, "I hope a tornado wreaks havoc somewhere in the Delaware Valley." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Road Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The usually-conservative ARW is spitting out 3-4" for SE PA tomorrow. Meanwhile, the NAM has backed down to less than an inch. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
