Was on 462 through West York and once it merged with 30, it went to hell. Most the SUV has swerved and been pushed in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 2 minutes ago, DDweatherman said: Where you located today? The 67 was on my neighbor's rig. Just got back to Rou. I feel the winds West of York on 30 surpassed this number. Would have guessed sustained 50-55 for long periods of time. There is a sign there listing distance to Abbottstown, New Oxford and Gettysburg and it was moving/waffling around like in the middle of a Hurricane despite still being bolted to the pole. Stop signs were moving like nothing I have ever seen around here before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said on another post, the winds were worse West of York. No way to measure though. We do have a bit of a wind tunnel here in how the mountain his shaped, so we always have higher winds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone at the Rutters in Emmitsburg had an anemometer and he said he was reading 53 sustained for at least 10 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 6 minutes ago, Itstrainingtime said: Holy crap... PS, the winds coming off the Susky in Columbia yesterday had to be near or above 50-55 as to gusts. People were having to walked slanted forward to get to the water. Once you go just 50-100 feet from the water, it lowered quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today puts yesterday to shame. At least 15 mph stronger and that’s not including gusts. A tree is across Caneron at Elmerton. A roof was blown off a house in Penbrook about an hour ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the reports are going to be coming in. In Roux it is not that bad right now. 25-30ish with near 40 something gusts. This AM was when it was bad here per the logs.

It was just near the water that I felt it "severe" yesterday. Yea today is probably the worst wind event for me personally since moving back in 2018. My car felt like it was on snow at times on that flat stretch of 30 just outside York. Not so bad once I got to Cross Keys and West. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I feel like I am reporting from Harrisburg when I say this but neighbor up from me who just had a new roof put on (though done by "friends) lost a row of about 10 shingles. But incredibly power is still on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of open fields on that part of 30, so that makes it easier to get those kinds of gusts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
