ChasingFlakes Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Definitely not 60mph gusts here, maybe 30 tops but I havent noticed too much wind just a lot of rain and some lightning. Edit: just after I posted this there is a strong sustained gust. Wish I could measure it, definitely not 60 but enough to make the house creak and the lights flicker. Sounds a bit like a jet taking off outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was pretty impressive - could hear the wind roaring (SSW to NNE) as the line slowly approached from the west...had to be gusts over 50 going by the sound and tree motion. Lots of flashes but I think most of them were transformers blowing. Power has been off and on a few times here...currently off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stemwinder Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Well, something roared through here just now. Not surprised at the tornado news. Sandy is what came to mind with the winds. At any rate, still have power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still no word on when we might get power back, looking at the outage map there's a bunch (600 plus outages, 129k customers [for PECO]). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Both my sisters (one in Delco and one in Montco) have power out. Heard the EAS around 11:30 pm and heard the wind roar, although I was expecting some lightning/thunder but didn't see/hear any, so this was mostly a gust front. Temp was 71 around 11 pm and once the front came through, fell off a cliff. Finished up with 0.65" or rain total yesterday and have 0.19" so far this morning. Currently down to 44 and clear but windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Large tree down across Charlestown Rd near Chruch Rd and Pickering Dam Rd.

Hurricane Agnes Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Wow. I saw that the NWS confirmed an EF2 in Delco - I guess what was originally considered a "meh" line decided to prove that it had other plans. My sister who lives in Wyndmoor has had her power out since last night and and most of her township (Springfield in Montco) had outages including the schools (which were closed today due to that).

RedSky Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Only an 8 hour power outage. An EF2 this time of year is a crazy happening is that a record strength? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Next weekend keeps trending colder, below freezing for highs in early November is anomalous cold. Then there's last Novembers radical mid November record PV attack seems real nutty weather is a common occurrence now. I don't think cold enough for snow weather is something we want to see this early, just cause it isn't timed with moisture to snow doesn't make it any less an omen.

Glen Mills is my post office, but down here we just heard the storm chugging by, probably a couple of minutes before touch down. Pretty awesome sounding, and unusual, especially on Halloween and at 11:30 pm. I'll admit I was on the edge of my seat on the porch, lol. Glad that (apparently) no one was hurt.
