Will Henry and Jesse Go Chasing?

Answer: Probably. I think this is the best chance of severe weather that we've had in our backyard this year. The SPC has a 5% Tornado Risk out just west of us, which for Pennsylvania, is pretty good.

The SPC has issued a Slight Risk for the whole state, no Moderate, which was disappointing, and they aren't being too optimistic, saying "ACTIVITY MAY REMAIN INTENSE AS FAR EAST AS OH/WESTERN PA AND WESTERN WV BEFORE WEAKENING THIS EVENING." Henry's hyped though, I'd say a 7.5 out of 10 on the Hype scale so far. I tell you what though, rapidly rising dew points (65 as of this writing), an expected high near 90... that ought to do it. The AccuCam is already showing clouds forming in rising air. Click below for live data from AccuWeather HQ:
