Tatamy Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 An impressive looking squall line is starting to take shape along the I-81 corridor in eastern and northeastern PA. A number of severe T-storm warnings out for it already. This will start moving into NW NJ and SE NY within the hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 0607 PM CDT Tue Aug 22 2017 Areas affected...Eastern PA...southern NY...northern NJ Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464... Valid 222307Z - 230100Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464 continues. SUMMARY...A few storms may increase in intensity as they progress across eastern Pennsylvania and vicinity. Damaging winds, a brief/weak tornado, and marginal hail are all possible. DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows continued pressure falls across eastern PA, ahead of the main line of storms. In addition, this corridor currently is near the instability axis, with MLCAPE around 1500 J/kg. Deep-layer shear remains favorable for long-lived severe storms, roughly 45-50 kt and at a large angle to the front. 0-1 km SRH also remains favorable for supercells and/or a brief tornado at over 100 M2/s2. Recent radar trends have shown some increase in cells ahead of the line, and if this trend persists, some of these cells may turn right and become supercells, with threat of a brief tornado, hail, and damaging wind.

SACRUS Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 It didnt happen in Aug, but you can see potential for the Western furnace to blow east in Sep, whether or not it can push some 90s or not will be interesting, In the meantime cooler than norm but just splendid 8/25 - 9/1.

ForestHillWx Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Impressive lightning to my west. Starting to hear some rumbles. Storms are closing in. It feels horrific out there.

winterwx21 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 The strong storm in Hunterdon County is on track to hit here, if it can hold together.

The latest HRRR is suggesting it will, quite a difference from what model runs earlier today showed. We'll see. One thing to note - it is fairly typical for these storms to pulse up as they leave the Lehigh Valley in eastern PA and pass over the mountain ridges across western NJ. There have been many times where I will get a storm here with some lightning and then the storm will fire up just to my east as it crosses the Delaware River and the lightning output increases dramatically. The orographic influences on these types of events cannot be understated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rain came down in buckets and was blowing sideways. Good amount of lightning as well. It wasn't severe, but a good strong t-storm. I'm pleased.
