Democratic Watchman, June 24, 1910, page 4
One of the severest thunderstorms experienced in this section in years passed over Centre county last Friday night. It began shortly after eleven o'clock with one peal of thunder that was simply terrific and from that time on until four o'clock in the morning it was one storm after another, with thunder rolling like the discharge of a battery of artillery and unusually vivid flashes of lightning.. A considerable quantity of rain also fell. It was a peculiar storm so far as its spread over the State was concerned. While it passed over Centre county Friday night it was not until Saturday afternoon that a storm of even greater violence swept down the Susquehanna valley and through the eastern part of the State, hail falling in great quantities Saturday night a similar storm swept over Somerset county.
