Actually I'm pretty sure it was a line too. Maybe not the one that came in June/July but the one in September hit my office building in midtown as well and was a pretty potent line moving through NJ

I thought it was a line. I stand corrected by Yanksfan and Trials. My bad.

the stuff that will eventually cross the nyc metro just not impressive right now. To the right, to the left, looks good, especially that stuff that raced out ahead towards Danbury. Need to see the middle of that line re-energize.

I'm afraid I have to stick to my guns...this just won't be memorable for the City, in fact the line is falling apart as it enters NW NJ...no boom as most were expecting...looks like the lone supercell that crossed Sullivan and is now in SW CT really sucked the life out of the atmosphere in the lower hudson valley, I'll be throwing in the towel if I do not see a SIGNIFICANT explosion of convection by 5:30...I just don't think it is going to happen when the outflow has outrun the convection

edit: sorry for the depressing post, I really hope I am wrong, but I have just been in this City for so long and seen so many set-ups like this

The is analogous to being upset about an ERC with a major hurricane that is still over very warm waters and low shear. You get me chief? Quiet...

I just wish they'd start 'diving' southeast a bit more, otherwise they look to stay north of I-80. There's still more storms southwest of there that could get the rest of us though

look at the radar out of Mt. Holly, its alot less pesimistic. I think were destined, at least most of us to get the storms currently near Scranton, and they still look healthy.

I understand your point, but I've also been living here about 40 years longer than you...and experience does count for something (of course I didn't believe that when I was your age either).

Regarding your "quiet" comment, you can stick that up your a**...this being a weather discussion forum.

Sincerely,

Bill

How many times have there been severe healthy lines coming out of NEPA/NWNJ only to fall apart just as they hit NYC? This is going to be somewhat opposite where the strongest storms are right in the 5 boroughs/ENJ.Nobody is going to be dissapointed tonight.

Seems odd that Farmingdale, NY is reporting lightning distant northwest.

Getting pretty dark here in northern nassau...i think that line in southern connecticut may sneak down to central LI...

Some pretty nice cells popping up between Harrisburg and Williamsport, PA. Maybe our storms won't be of the squall line nature (at least south and west of NYC)
