Temp near 100 and very humid, forecast for Sunday... 20,000 homes still without power in SE PA and 13,000 in south Jersey.

Good for you UG. I didn't know it was coming and so I missed it.

There was one a couple of years ago that my grandson and I stayed up to see, and it was well worth while. We both enjoyed the time waiting for it.
