The Berks storm seems to be weakening much less lightning strikes possibly the first round out ahead of it stabilized the atmosphere

 

Anything severe headed for Royersford? It is hard to tell if the one storm is going to the north of here.

Your guess good as mine although the southern end of the line of storms looks to be the stronger part now

Sounds about right. Wasn't nearly as intense as it looked like it was going to be. "Only" dropped another .25" for a total of 1.35" on the day.
