A powerful storm system will continue to bring heavy mountain snow, rain, and high winds to the Pacific Northwest and northern California through midweek. Heavy rain and flash flooding potential exists across the central Gulf Coast over the next few days, including the Florida Panhandle. A Slight Risk (level 2 of 4) of excessive rainfall is in effect Tuesday. Read More >
Overview
Thunderstorms fired up in the afternoon of Wednesday the 27th, as near-record heat over Central PA combined with ample moisture to initiate and continue the thunderstorms.
None of the storms were particilarly long-lived, as they were moving only slowly and would stifle themselves as they rained onto the hot spot that initially help them each fire up.
A Record High of 97 degrees occurred at Williamsport, PA (KIPT) Wednesday afternoon. This high temperature broke the previous record for the 27th of June, which was 95 degrees, from 1963.
