Yeah, and pretty much in the same area as well - Lancaster County and surrounding areas.

Rotation began this afternoon in the Armstrong/Indiana Counties just to my north and northwest. Funnel clouds were spotted in these counties from what I've heard from local media outlets. I'm not sure if the weather service will be out investigating any area or what areas tomorrow. I can tell you from my experience in these storms today. I was heading to work and I had to pull off of the road because it was almost a whiteout from the heavy rain. I heard something different hitting the windshield and when I stopped, I saw that we had nickle to penny size hail falling. The winds were so strong, it felt like they were trying to push the car out into the travel lanes. Its not an experiece that I want to see again. And then this evening at work, when we had yet another round of storms, lightning hit very close to the building, if not the actual building. As soon as the you saw the lightning, the thunder came and it rattled the building a little bit. Scared the **** out of me. Hope we don't repeat this again tomorrow.

Another chance of strong storms today...possibly even a better setup than yesterday. It's much more unstable here than it was yesterday, and my area is just barely in the slight risk area.
Concerning the storms yesterday, I was tracking them... rather large hail was being indicated (1.50") and several MESOs were indicated. They looked pretty nasty.

While my wife and I were driving up Rt 28 this afternoon from Pittsburgh, we saw a helicopter flying low around the area that I had stopped in yesterday to let some of the storm pass by. The area reported 70 MPH winds with large trees down. I don't know if it was the weather service out doing an arieral tower of the area to see if they could find any straight line wind damage or tornadic damage. I will see what I can and post later.
