The worst of it hit between 2-6 am Friday morning in Lancaster County, PA. 40 mph winds with gusts to 60mph. Had a 60 foot tree go down, but fortunately it fell away from the house. Power was out until 8:30 pm Saturday, and we were lucky - some folks in the area won't have power until Wednesday. The outages were fairly spotty in our area, so we called upon all of our mountain survival skills and went out for pizza once the roads were cleared of trees.

We clocked 72 mile winds in southern Lancaster county. Right before our power went out the weather channel said they heard 200 trees came down in the country in 2 hours...I guess we got hit with the next two hundred,lol. Thank God we had some frozen gallons of milk in our freezer as they saved the meat.
