Most of the heavy storms passed through far NW Chester County and into Berks County. However, with the frontal passage temps have fallen off pretty quickly by about 10 degrees in the past hour. The current temperature here in East Nantmeal is 62.3 down from 73.1 about 1 hour ago. Rainfall at least here in East Nantmeal has been light with only 0.07" of rain so far today. Should be a beautiful couple of days on tap both Tuesday and Wednesday with temps a little cooler than normal in the upper 60's to low 70's and lots of sunshine! A very brief warm up to above normal temps by Friday/Saturday with out 1st possible 80 degree readings across the County by that time. However, quickly back to slightly below normal temps again by the start of the new work week as we head toward Memorial Day weekend.

Think the worst missed me just to the south, hearing plenty of thunder in that direction. But things are pretty much over here. M'eh (is my official storm report).

You're correct. I'm getting stuff throw at me and you're right on the borderline.

Yeah, when my friend texted I looked at the radar and watched that hail core collapse just 12 yards from my house.

Had a little wind here, with some thunder and lightning but not real close, and 0.20" of rain. Sun was out for most of the rain. Saw the bottom of a nice rainbow through the trees. Sunny now with some driveway steam occurring. A pretty friendly storm all in all, freshened things up. Currently 70F.
