Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	An approaching cold front that ended a week long heat wave also triggered severe thunderstorms across eastern Pennsylvania during the afternoon and early evening on the 23rd. The majority of the wind and lightning damage occurred in southeastern Pennsylvania where PECO Energy reported about 35,000 homes and businesses lost power. A power outage caused significant delays and over a one hour shut down (from 430 p.m. EDT through 545 p.m. EDT) of Amtrak train service between Philadelphia and Boston. Five SEPTA Regional Rail Lines were also affected by the outage.
Event narrativeevent_narrative	A lightning strike caused a fire at a Bed, Bath and Beyond store in Upper Merion Township. Lightning struck the roof and made a hole the size of a penny. It penetrated the right front area of the store's displays. The lightning set stacks of towels and other merchandise on fire. The store was evacuated. Eight fire companies battled the blaze and it was contained in a small area of the store. It was declared under control at 7 p.m. EDT. No injuries were reported.
