Please be mindful - there are still road hazards out here! Somebody decided to move the cones and now they're just going to block the street entirely. There's an additional wires fire at 291 and Central so stop signs are going out at Flower. This storm was truly crazy!

Chef Lamont's home and outdoor work area sustained some serious damage in last night's storm. I stopped by this morning just to check in on him, and as I was walking out the door, Aaron Baskerville from Channel 10 was walking up the porch steps!
The tree damaged a total of 4 homes.
!!! CHECK ON YOUR CHILDREN !!!
We have two GSVs - a 17 year old male to the foot and a 16 year old to the leg, stemming from shots fired in the area of the new homes. Awaiting more info.

Storm Damage Pictures 6/22/26 Chester City
It seems as though most of our storm damage was concentrated between Pusey and Booth, Concord down to 291.
There are still more reports of storm damage coming in as we speak so I didn't get everything, but it's interesting to see the differences in damage based on location. The west side of the city had widespread storm damage, while the east side of the city barely had anything.
Yeet!! Another round!

Edit 7:44pm - I lied. I underestimated how much damage I was going to encounter. Gonna edit all these pics and post them in a different thread!
Storm damage photos will be in this thread - starting out with the tree down on both the 900 block of Lloyd and the tree down on 9th between Lloyd and Pennell.
All right ladies and gents, according to radio traffic, 291 is flooding and we also have multiple trees down on 291 blocking the roadway between approximately Lloyd and Flower Streets. Please use caution in the area!
Edit to add - please post your hazardous conditions in the comments!

The first casualty of the first round of storms/heavy rain for the day 🤣🤣
No but for real, we're expected to get some nasty weather this afternoon into this evening. And we would actually be better off if the sun was cloud covered right now - but it's not. So will we remain in the bubble again? Only time will tell.
I'll be back later on with any reports of flooding, downed trees, wires, etc - we've made it through fairly unscathed the last few times around... today may be different 🤷
Road closure!! 9th Street Bridge into Eddystone is 100% closed today due to road work!
