zenmsav6810 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Added another decent fraction of an inch in Southeast Berks/ North Chester Counties. The rain has been at regular intervals for our area, unlike some of you who just broke dry spells tonight. The garden is doing pretty well, the only thing is the tomatoes have a case of Vertcillium Wilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwell03 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Witnessed an unreal downpour at around 8pm in Blue Bell. Meanwhile I guess we Jersey people shouldn't have been complaining about our dry spell this month, lol. Shelf leading the severe t'storm in Gloucester County which would eventually become tornado warned. Where is that taken from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBasile Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I think this confirms the tornado yesterday in Burlington County. Image was shot from Rt 206 apparently. Beautiful funnel too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVblizzard Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 2nd straight day with a storm in Allentown yesterday, although flooding rains were a bigger threat than wind or lightning with yesterday's storm.

MORRISVILLE...DOYLESTOWN 930 AM EDT TUE JUL 15 2014 ...SWATHS OF HIGH IMPACT DAMAGING THUNDERSTORMS WITH FLASH FLOODING EXPECTED LATER TODAY OR THIS EVENING... THE PRIMARY LINES OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DEVELOP IN NEAR 90 DEGREE HEAT OVER EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA BETWEEN 1 PM AND 3 PM AND THEN MOVE INTO THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR BETWEEN 4 PM AND 8 PM. THESE STORMS ARE LIKELY TO BE STRONGER THAN YESTERDAY WITH POTENTIAL FOR MORE EXTENSIVE AND GREATER DAMAGE. RAINFALL OF 1 TO 2 INCHES WITHIN ONE HOUR WOULD PROMOTE POCKETS OF RENEWED FLASH FLOODING IN URBANIZED AREAS. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE EXTENSIVE SMALL STREAM FLOODING THAN WHAT OCCURRED YESTERDAY...ESPECIALLY IF STORMS REPEATEDLY ROLL THROUGH AN AREA FOR 2 HOURS AND PRODUCE 4 TO 5 INCH AMOUNTS. THOSE LIVING IN OR TRAVELING THROUGH EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR FROM NEW BRUNSWICK TO TRENTON...PHILADELPHIA AND WILMINGTON INTO NORTHEAST MARYLAND SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR DANGEROUS THUNDERSTORMS LATE TODAY. THESE STORMS WILL FORCE TRAVEL DELAYS IN SOME AREAS AND POTENTIALLY CAUSE ROAD CLOSURES. POWER OUTAGES CAUSED BY LIGHTNING AND TREE DAMAGE COULD BE EXTENSIVE. THE RISK FOR STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH AFTER 10 PM. HAVE YOUR SAFETY PLAN IN MIND WHEN WARNINGS ARE ISSUED. $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsentropicLift Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I do think that there might have been a funnel cloud or some rotation nevertheless given the tight couplet that was observed on radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxwell03 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Is this not from this area? Somebody's gotta be wrong. It definitely does look like 206 in Shamong/Tabernacle area, I recognize the landmark. Must just be a funnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Could just be a funnel. A very low funnel. Which would mean the other image is fake. Don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwell03 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Maybe the survey team just didn't venture too deep into the woods? Lol, if you look at the NJ Tornado Project map, there is a huge gap in the area where the funnel was spotted surrounding Wharton State Forest. That area is heavily forested pine barrens and probably one of the largest stretches of unpopulated land in the state; I'm sure there have been touchdowns back there that have gone undetected.

BBasile Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The other image was confirmed to be fake. NWS confirms no tornado, straight line winds. So it is a fake. However, the other two images look to match up pretty well. Maybe the survey team just didn't venture too deep into the woods? Lol, if you look at the NJ Tornado Project map, there is a huge gap in the area where the funnel was spotted surrounding Wharton State Forest. That area is heavily forested pine barrens and probably one of the largest stretches of unpopulated land in the state; I'm sure there have been touchdowns back there that have gone undetected. Possible. Would like to hear from the NWS about the survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
