You live in Schuylkill county? My grandmother lives there, and I go walking around Ashland, and Gordon for bottles when I am up there. Stay safe.

Yeea I'm 19 Mile South of Ashland. 11 Mile as the Bird Flies

 

[smokeythecat]

The storm passed north of us by at least 25 air miles, but I heard several LOUD thunderclaps. I would have hated to be under that burst!

 

[jeff of pa]

I Think My feet Left The Ground During the Big one
It Struck in Front of the House, But apparently Only Struck the Air.
No Damage.

Just Light Like a Camera Flash & Sound Like Dynamite Instantaneously,
And Immediate Darkness after as everything shut down.

I Gotta Admit, it was Enjoyable

If the Power had Stayed Off, My opinion would be Different

Old school lightning detector, no batteries required. When you feel the hairs on your arms standing up from static you need to be somewhere else about two minutes ago. And Jeff put those dowsing rods down!! Get inside and make sure you got enough coffee brewed if the power goes off! Screw the food in the freezer save the coffee!!

Mother Nature can be interesting and terrifying at the same time. Stock up on Folgers Classic Coffee.
