Severe Thunderstorm Warning expires for parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey

PHILADELPHIA - A Severe Thunderstorm Warning that was issued Friday night for parts of the Delaware Valley has expired. 

Forecasters warned people in Philadelphia, Bucks and Montgomery counties to brace for strong wind gusts up to 60 MPH and the chance of small hail.

The warning also extended into New Jersey, with parts of Mercer County and Burlington County under the advisory until it expired at 8:15 p.m. 

Sultry late-spring conditions set the stage for a nasty line of storms to crop up. Temperatures on Friday reached into the 90s and remained in the 80s even after the sun went down.
