Glad to be back on the boards after the transfer...a lot of schoolwork had to be done, and now it's 4 AM and I'm still awake, heh :P Anyways, for those of you who haven't seen it already on my YouTube page, I had an encounter about a week ago with a shelf cloud moving into State College, PA. I had my Kodak digital camera rolling, and you can hear me talking about how terrible the storm is on the video. Severe Thunderstorm in State College, Pennsylvania - April 16, 2010 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CyjrkgcEVY#ws)
The true identity of this storm from April 16th of 2010 is a shelf cloud and not anything else I say. I just kept rambling on like an idiot :dunno: But I hope you like it.

I like how people are running for cover and you are just sitting out there chillin! haha :P Cool vid. Great quality too
-
That's one scary looking cloud! Great video :)
-
Now this is my kind of weather!
-
The second storm that hit me around lunchtime yesterday was somewhat similar to this one.
-
We had another similar storm come through here today...warning and all, although much cooler boundary layer made this more of an elevated convection event. We actually had a tornado warning just to our south, but no reports of wind damage amazingly :) Strangely, we weren't added to the Severe Thunderstorm Watch to our south until the local WFO (down the street, literally) agreed with SPC to extend it to the NY/PA border with all their counties.

Continuing the thread for another couple of videos that I took, which are arguably better than the prior videos. I moved to another apartment in State College, and the first night I spent, we had thunderstorms. Clear air behind the front allowed me to see a very well-developed thunderhead, lit from behind me and shining up in the heavens by the setting sun. Two parts:
Part I: (lightning visible): Severe Thunderstorm in State College, PA, May 15, 2010 (Part 1 of 2) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkITrLUgv3M#ws)
Part II (better cut, more closeups, less shaking): Severe Thunderstorm in State College, PA, May 15, 2010 (Part 2 of 2) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsbo76Wc9wM#ws)
Enjoy and share!

Just wondering but it has nothing to do with this topic but why do you have two accounts? This and the Steve-O account?

Forum merge probably.
WOW!!! FANTASTIC SHOT!!

Thanks, guys, for the compliments. We're in proximity to a Severe Thunderstorm Watch right now, and rumor has it a lot of the thunderstorms around here get good, dry air around them.
I'm not Jevic Steve BTW... :biggrin: although I think many, many moons ago, I made one post with an old username (to which I don't know the password.)
