Tornado watch until 8 PM ET in PA, NJ, DE, MD

There's a tornado watch in effect until 8 PM tonight for the entire Delaware Valley (except Cape May County, NJ and Sussex County, DE) and beyond, meaning there's a chance you could lose power for the game tonight. You might want to come up with a backup plan.

Now I’m happy that I live where I live… for a change :)

I love the Lightning AND the Flyers... go ahead, preach me!

Good luck everyone.

(I have to agree with your comment, Katchis.)

We rarely get them here, and if we do , they are usually much much smaller than in the midwest.

Besides, it’s just a “watch” not a warning, I can’t even remember the last time we’ve had one.

This station is non-operational.

It wasn’t that long ago actually, last year maybe? They’re few and very far between though, especially in south jersey where i am.

Only time we lost power during the playoffs was the one game we lost to NJD…lost power for 6 hours. It was brutal.

Wow

Hope the power doesn’t go out. Supposed to get severe thunderstorms this afternoon and that has knocked power out for me before. I’m watching the game at a bar and that’s a few minutes away from my house. If the power is out at my house, then the power will be out at the bar too.

well we had that happen last night in the area of Ohio where I’m from…no problems to speak of with satellite, so I’m guessing as long as it don’t get too crazy…shouldn’t be a problem. Cross your fingers anyways, just to make sure.

Philadelphia Flyers/Columbus Blue Jackets...don't ask me how.

I can’t speak for the folks here from Jersey, but where I am now in Montgomery County, it is supposed to be out a few hours before the game starts. If I do encounter any problems, hopefully they will be fixed by game time.

I hope you all stay safe tonight and don't lose power.

Oddly enough, there was a tornado in the Chicago area last night, about 90 miles south/southwest of the city.

Isn’t it the same storm system?

Some sore loser shut off the Verses feed up here in Nantucket, Mass. as soon as the Flyers went up 2-0 in game 4!
Dont think the will have the gonads to shut off NBC tonight.
Go flyers……
p.s. I bet they pump crowd noise into the the Chicago arena during the anthem.

bread. butter. cheese. VICTORY!

LOL! :)

That is really awful that the Versus affiliate up there cut out the game. I think you’re right – there’s no way that the NBC affiliate would do the same. (If so, that would be a new low in sports coverage (and in juvenile attempts at futile “revenge”).)

GO FLYERS!!!!
