I'll be surprised to get anything more from these thunderstorms I'm guessing that we'll see a line of generally "meh" thunderstorms, though I suppose we could see some nocturnal spinnies, as well as some bowing segments within the line to bring down some of the strong winds from the LLJ.

Not much instability really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishbri74 Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Can tell the heaviest stuff went right over the Chester/Ridley/yeadon Mcdade Blvd corridor is S&E Delco. No surprise Phl guesses to 55. That’s right where the strongest updraft went over (follow the lightning ! Saw some power flashes from that corridor from my vantage point. Only a handful of transformers/wires called being dispatched. No reports of damage on the scanner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernNJ Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Only reason I am here is the phone alert, as nothing much was happening and I fell asleep. I tried to find a signature on every radar, but couldn't see one clearly. Big area of Downburst/Macroburst style winds were located between Chester and Camden, along both sides of the river. Now, best possible signature is near Bensalem, moving toward Bristol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 I'm in Towamencin. We had intense rain and a few rumbles. I called my parents, who live in NE Philly to warn them. I could hear their wind - it sounded insane. My mom says it's died down quite a bit just now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about setting an alarm to check on radar and warnings but opted to rely on the phone alerts as I just finished an 80 hour week. Was hoping not to get an alert and sleep but the alert worked...hustled wife and dog into the basement. At its peak it was bad enough that my wife got over being awakened at this hour. Surprised and pleased we have power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
