Heads up East Central PA and Southeastern PA (and possibly Jersey) folks - nasty weather on the way

Hope it's okay to post this here. I know there are a lot of Eastern and SE PA folks here. There's some storm nastiness occurring just west of us. A squall line is forming into a bow echo, which can get pretty nasty. This means we can see winds around the 70mph mark, in addition to severe lightning and possibly hail. Areas west of us have already experienced these high winds, lots of trees down, property damage, power outages.

Be safe. Go indoors, if you can. Try not to travel. Keep your eye to the sky and keep alert for weather warnings from TV, radio, internet, etc.

My preferred website for this region is Eastern PA Weather Authority. They have a general webpage, the Twitter, Facebook. They are very accurate. I also like Intellicast (both the website and app) for radar map and warnings.

Be safe everyone!!!
