Quick weather change,,, Here in Phila Pa.

[pred]

I didnt get a good before shot, But looked like this after shot.

It was 65* and sunny at about 6pm, I heard some thunder and saw way out in the yard the chickens running for the coop, And literally before I could get to the camera, Hail from above spilling out of the sky ! I was hoping that the chickens all made it back in.

After about 1 minute of dumping 3/8" to 1/2" hail, It poured for about another 45 seconds and then the sun came out again.

I took a walk to check the chickens, They all made it back in the coop before getting hailed to death?
The top pic is less than 10 minutes from when the thunder started.
WOW.

That storm is going to hit us up here in about 2-2.5 hours.

I was on 95 south headed to Wilmington when it hit. We pulled over under one of the bridges and waited it out. Lots of folks had the same idea, but there wasn't enough bridge space. 3/8 inch hail makes one hell of a racket bouncing off your car at 55 mph...

ETA, the storm passed in less than 8 minutes here.

It got here a little quicker than they first predicted; it's just starting now. There's LOTS of thunder coming from the southwest; the winds, hail and lightning should be here in about 5-10 minutes.

I am glad I wasent driving in it!
Or worse, On a motorcycle!
Let us know how it went up there!

 

[WaterburyBob]

It's just ending now. I didn't actually see any hail, and the winds weren't that strong.
