Thousands of excited Taylor Swift fans are returning to their seats at Lincoln Financial Field after a severe thunderstorm forced them to move out of the field.


The Country music superstar performed at the Linc Friday night and is performing again on Saturday. Heavy rain as well as lightning delayed Saturday night's concert however and forced concertgoers to leave their seats and move to the concourse area.


Around 10:30 p.m. they were allowed back into their seats as the rain moved out.


The lightning cancelled the Electric Run, a 5K run in Philadelphia, according to twitter followers. The race organizers have not confirmed the cancellation however.


The storm has also led to power outages in several parts of the area as well.


According to AC Electric, 2836 customers are without power in Camden County while 4364 are without power in Salem County. Delmarva is reporting 458 outages in New Castle while PECO is reporting scattered outages.
