#1 Postby tomboudreau » Thu Jun 24, 2004 7:05 pm

For some reason, I cannot get the discussion from SPC that is highlighted on their map for western PA...and I'm wondering if anyone else can...and if so, could you paste the text here or PM me with it. I tried to reload the page, but I cant get it to work. Im just wondering if they are thinking about putting up a severe thunderstorm watch for my area. Thanks in advance.
