LVLion77 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 The winners in the thunderstorm sweepstakes tonight are the farmers that live in the area where lehigh, berks, montgomery, and bucks counties all kind of come together. They got hit 3 times (well, 2 1/2 times) at severe intensity.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
