Looks like some on the Forum will see something from this storm. This projection is from our local NOAA. Anyone else seeing results yet?

It will clip us tomorrow. The Western edge will be a few miles to the East of us starting tomorrow morning. Then it should be out of here by tomorrow evening. Heading up North to you all.

It isn't even a major storm for gods sake, stop watching the MSM.

A good rain shower with a little lightning in east-central PA. Stopped for now. Weather radio is predicting 2 to 4 inches and up to 6, might as well cover all the bases. Heaviest amounts east of I 81 tomorrow afternoon, evening.

And now it's not again. At least it is moving quickly.

It's supposed to pass just west of where I am. 2 to 8PM highest winds up to 65mph and we were just issued a tornado watch for this afternoon. We had 2 small tornados touch down in 2 towns just north of me on Sunday afternoon. We need the rain but not the wind. Will see. Now if my coal gets real wet will it burn this winter? :lol:

According to the radar it looks like New York is getting a good soaking.
