The National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm warning at 1:38 a.m. on Wednesday in effect until 2:15 a.m. for Allegheny, Beaver, Washington and Westmoreland counties.
Published: May. 08, 2024, 1:44 a.m."At 1:37 a.m., a severe thunderstorm was located near Imperial, or 9 miles southwest of Moon Township, moving east at 45 mph," says the weather service. "Trees snapped and uprooted. Power outages can be expected."
Lightning can follow conductive pathways, and these precautions reduce the risk of electrical surges.After the last lightning strike or thunderclap, wait at least 30 minutes before resuming outdoor activities. Camping in an open setting during a thunderstorm is strongly discouraged. If you have no alternative, set up camp in a valley, ravine, or other low-lying areas. It's crucial to note that a tent provides no protection against lightning.
When stopping by the roadside is your only option, position your vehicle as far off the road as possible, ideally beyond guardrails. Keep your headlights on and activate emergency flashers to alert other drivers of your position.
