CASILIST : Early Morning PA Chase

Well folks I awoke at 5:30 this morning to frequent thunder. There's
nothing like a morning thunderstorm - it proves that the atmosphere is
volatile. There was a 67dbZ storm right over my head as a Severe
Thunderstorm Warning went out at 5:35. After an additional warning, I
chased the storm about 20 miles before it went into "No Mans Land", one
of the many areas of PA where there are no roads. According to radar
the storm contained 1" hail but I did not witness any, just high winds,
heavy rains, and frequent lightning. (All this without even being in a
General Thunderstorm Risk!)
Since the weather looks a wee bit unpredictable today, I'll be taking
the videocamera to work so the CASICAM will be down until this evening.
