Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn upper air disturbance combined with a hot and humid air mass to produce strong to severe thunderstorms across Eastern Pennsylvania during the second half of the afternoon and early evening on the 24th. In addition to locally damaging winds, lightning strikes caused one injury and damaged several homes. There were numerous reports of hail with the thunderstorms as the freezing level aloft was relatively low in height above the ground. Most of the hail was small (half an inch or less in diameter).
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA lightning strike and ensuing fire damaged a home on Lindsay Street in Ridley Park. Lightning struck and started a fire in the basement and also traveled along the electrical wiring within the house. The furniture, electronics and clothing were all damaged within the home.
