Treckasec Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 WOW I just had some wind at my house but this is about 15 minutes from me: Jeez, it looks like this winter. Only difference it seems is there's hail, and lots of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Had hail here, no golf ball size, but some interesting shapes, some were as wide as a golf ball but flat with appendages. Pretty windy, especially to the east of here (heard some trees breaking and transformers blowing). Impressive storm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhound Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 That was a wicked 10 minutes! The hail was banging against my skylights. Fortunately no damage. Bright and sunny now! Glen Mills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiehardFF Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 As usual, the storm weakened as it passed through the county. 60 plus dBZ downright to 45 dBZ as it passed through Doylestown. It happens all, the, time. Disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman56 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Since cable won't stay up, I'll keep it brief round 2 dime size hail and 1.12" for the day looks like that's it for evening - I hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 The second round here lasted about 5 or 10 minutes with smaller (dime size) hail. Interesting weather! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Probably the greatest hail storm I have ever witnessed in person - power has been out for the last 75 minutes....generator kicked in so all good. 0.74" of rain Trying to upload pix but says the file is too large. Kids had me grab a bag of the hailstones and put them in a plastic bag in the freezer - still have ice on the deck 50 minutes later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDoppler Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I didn't have much here, just a little rain. I had a hailstorm about 4-5 years ago, I'm glad to have missed this one being that my car is 2 months old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinkers88 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hail may have stripped them bare. Off an on pea sized hail here for about the last 25 min, covered the ground occasionally for a T of snow/ice cover for the date. .67" of non-needed rain Yep that's exactly what happened.

PaMike Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Penn dot had to plow rte 12 in Reading. 3-4 inches of hail. Was causing flooding. Busiest highway in Berks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soadforecaster Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 got nail by both hail storms today. both had quarter to gold ball sized hail. i grabbed what i could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernNJ Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I was at work during the height of the storms, but in fact, that is what made the day. Usually enjoy tracking the storms for other folks, but it was nice to finally be in an actual severe storm today. I work at a school near the Gloucester/Salem county line in NJ. At 4:45 PM, the hail began falling and did not stop until 4:55 PM. Most of the hail was Penny to Quarter Size, but a couple of isolated golf balls were mixed in. I live in Swedesboro, and the school is 3 miles SW of town. The town apparently got hail too, but not sure what size. The hail was wind driven, and was slamming against the side of the building. Many of the stones were smashing into each other upon hitting the ground. It accumulated in a slushy fashion, and it did look like snow in the grass, as has been photographed in many areas across the CWA. Numerous leaves and shrubbery were all across the roadways from the combined wind and damaging hail. I knew the storm was on its way about an hour earlier, but did not know it would be to this extent. Reviewing KDOX and TPHL, the hail core of the storm and timing of the loops correlates well to the timeframe. Would have been nice to see what KDIX saw, but that's how it goes. Sounds like a tornado may have occurred in Kent County Delaware based on images and reports. Strong gusts were reported at some airports around the area, with plenty of rain and lightning. In other words, a little of everything. Also, much credit to Tony and Walt, as they were in beast mode today with the warnings, including the Tornado warning as well.

LVblizzard Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I was in north Allentown, near the border of Whitehall, when the storms hit today. It was the craziest storm I can remember seeing with blinding rain, strong wind gusts, and ping pong ball sized hail. I took a video which I'll try to upload to Youtube later. Basically, it looked like a tropical storm out there...but with hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafpsu Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hail may have stripped them bare. Off an on pea sized hail here for about the last 25 min, covered the ground occasionally for a T of snow/ice cover for the date. .67" of non-needed rain eerie driving through this area tonight on the way home from work (the storm passed directly between work and home--12 miles; no damage at work or home). there was still hail on the ground in shaded areas and gullies, 4 hours after the storm passed. none of the trees have leaves left on them--even larger trees. odd looking site at this time of year. still a few cars abandoned along the highway and in the berkshire mall parking lot, with windshields shattered. i have several friends whose cars are totaled.
