We had peeks of sun today, but it was mostly cloudy. As for the severe watch, I'm on the northern extent of it. That means maybe a "chance" of a thunderSHOWER.

Whatever we get will be JUST enough to screw up my grandson's little league game, but not enough to be interesting or noteworthy.

As expected...

Garden variety rain shower with distant thunder and dark clouds to me southeast, but the game's been postponed.

That was a vigorous little cell, even got some 1/2" hail with it. Looks like another one on its heels.

I had a clear view from the north of the rain core directly over you.  I tried snapping pic as I could see the trailing edge of the storm very clearly but the picture came out blurry! Just got a good gust front and some heavy COLD rain and it felt amazing unloading the truck in it.  Seems to be settling down for now, my car thermometer is reading 75 right now in Great Valley.

Hate when that happens (blurry pics)! Round 2 didn't have as much punch, the first one used up most of the heat. 72F here now, the coolest it's been for days!!!

I saw stuff headed your way and wondered if it would fizzle and/or go around you.  I guess not!  I have had light rain here and am up to 0.17" so far.

Brief blinding torrential downpour and then wind little lightning
