LocoAko Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Storm was okay but there's a very surprising amount of intense lightning on the back side of the storm. Winds maybe 30-40mph here briefly.. More CG on the back side than before or during for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sock Puppet Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Storms like this almost always weaken as it passes Brooklyn. Not even a lightning strike here today. Watching the storm in the City on TWC lol Come on Ben,the past 5 days you had 2 great storms and nearly 10 inches of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSkiesFading Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 It got better in the last few minutes, but still no big deal. Parts of town, including Shop Rite are without power. Nice lightning display, but I was hoping for some hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaner587 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 one of the worst storms I've seen since labor day 1998(when I lived on long island) here on the upper east side in manhattan. Easily 60mph winds constant CTG lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ict1523 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Tons of thunder and lightning. Some downed branches around the area as I'd estimate wind gusts to have reached around 45mph. There is heavy rain but it hasn't been torrential here. I think the fact that it looked like armageddon was ariving pre-storm made my hopes set a little too high.

JonClaw Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Monster-gust came in with the rain. Not a microburst, but I wouldn't be surprised if it topped 50 mph. Best thunderstorm IMBY this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Wow that thing died quickly! I got heavier rain in that 20 second downpour that barely clipped my area yesterday lol. Oh well I got clobbered in the hailstorms a few weeks ago so it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 This is crazier than yesterday. I'm in awe at this lightning, bolts extending well up into the sky looking 5+ miles long. It has really rained yet other than a few drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
