I got a brief Tstorm nearby today, but it passed to the southeast, but it was close enough to produce some good thunder. That was #36.

The 2nd statement just expired, don’t know if they will issue a new one or not yet.
 
Here are the two remaining storms in question as seen by me just now as I start to go on a walk;

Pano image of both storms refusing to load.
 
Here is the satellite view of these two storms (note the rounded edges of the leading edges of these storms)

This match’s up very well from what I am seeing from the ground;

Note: this photo above is sideways as that’s how I took the photo.
 
Look at this. Interesting to see. It feels cool right now, though we did get two bouts of non-thunderstorm heavy rain around 2PM. I think the coolness is coming from the storms approaching me right now;

Hmm. Here is all of Pennsylvania then, @Kds86z;

What do you think?
