They may have a more specific hotspot(s) around the area but damn the majority of us should have seen at least one with such a large volume? Just 1. I'm calling Herb....

ChescoWx Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Storm as you can see on the radar is about 5.5 miles NW of my location here in East Nantmeal Twp in Chester County Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedoman Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 severe t- storm here in Macungie area- 50 -60 mph- straight line winds - limbs down- tons of scorched leaves and maple helicopters everywhere in the bow echo portion of the squall line. Not a drought buster but I will take .35 in of rain at this time. The water running down the street gutters was actually yellow green for the first 15 minutes. At least the car got a washing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Getting darker already by me in Hopewell and that usually means the storms gust front is outpacing the precip. I expect the line to weaken considerably the next hour as it approaches the Delaware. Will be surprised if it stays severe. I just hope it rains.. my grass is bone dry and I'm tired of watering the garden twice a day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Missed the worst of it to my North, happy to see some rain and hear some rumbles.

Hurricane Agnes Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Briefly had 1"/hr rate but briefly. So far up to 0.13". Need some more but at least that washed some of the pollen off. Temp is down to 70, dp 64. Looks bright to the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamuSnow Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Just getting ready for that southern cell to roll in here, lots of thunder and lightning, a few rain drops, probably about 3 minutes till we're into it. Sounds like a good old fashioned thunderstorm, like last summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Temp went from 88F to 64F. Gust front was the best part of the storm but I did pick up about .60”. Some more storms off to the west. I doubt they’ll be severe if they make it here but additional rain would be welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolHandMike Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 If that cell over Lebanon holds together, I might be able to get some more. Figures, I just went out and watered everything since the mulch under the plants was dry. Glad to see others cashing in on some much needed moisture though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I did hear one low rumble of thunder from a distance and there is a lighter return band incoming here (hopefully it will provide some more). Am up to 0.17" of rain and temp at 68 w/66dp. I heard Glenn on the radio earlier this afternoon talking about upper 50s for the weekend for highs.

KamuSnow Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Still raining a bit, up to .30". Not too much wind, no hail, but plenty of thunder and lightning. Nice shot of rain too. We decided to go inside since the lightning was getting a bit close, and then a bolt went down across the street, maybe 400-500 ft. away. That was...stimulating! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Nice out now, some sun, steam coming off the driveway, everything wet and refreshed, plus we saw a faint rainbow off to the east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
