there were 3 confirmed tornadoes in PA --- one of them being an F2 with a total path of 15 miles (mostly at F1 status) but still an extreme event for PA anytime of year :eek:

sorry for posting late: High at Williamsport on Dec 1: 70. Previous record: 59
Talk about shattering a record, all right.

The high on Dec 2 was 42. It was a strong system to say the least.
