TheTrials Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Weird. Perth Amboy is to my North, East Brunswick is to my south, and South River is directly to my east, yet I didn't see anything bigger than peas. That's disappointing. Those are not official spotter reports, correct, they are public reports? have to be taken with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCSuburbs Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Loud thunder and heavy rain this morning in NYC. I don't remember seeing lightning strikes this close since last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I was driving through northern Mercer and had the same deal. I liked the sky with the orange-tint underneath the base of the storm and then as I drove under it, the sky was like night. The lightning was intense and so was the heavy rain. No hail where I was and the wind didn't crack 30 mph. This was just to the south: 1205 UNK 2 E HAMILTON TWP MERCER NJ 4021 7466 TREE DOWN AT NEW JERSEY STATE POLICE HAMILTON STATION (PHI) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersWx92 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Got woken up by very loud and frequent thunder here in Bridgewater; that was the closest lightning I've experienced at home in years I think. I don't think I got any hail but I did get 0.42'' of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 The damn Th woke me up with intense thunder and frequent ctg lightning (My estimate is that it took place between 7:30 and 8:30am, and under these circumstances, I would have been better off being in Manh. or northern Queens). It kind of reminds you that they do take place here. Just wish that it occurred a little bit later so I could have appreciated it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCSuburbs Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Is it safe to say the severe threat is dead for the rest of the day? Should be some additional scattered storms this afternoon especially further east as the cold front comes through, according to the short range models, but the widespread heavy storms are done for the day.

Dsnowx53 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 We're destabilizing pretty well in New Brunswick now. I still think this afternoon has potential as the cold front approaches and the NW winds aloft increase and as we destabilize a bit more. Idk how areas further north are doing wrt to destabilization though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle W Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Thats my church... gonna go check it out. I had to drive my wife to work in West Brighton during the height of the storm...Martling creek was flooding the road...I forgot to put out my rain guage...We must have gotten over an inch of rain?...

Stormlover74 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Yeah that rain cooled airmass from this morning is being replaced by muggy conditions once again. But not sure it's going to be enough to spark any new thunderstorm activity. We're destabilizing pretty well in New Brunswick now.

TheTrials Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 watch dropped. I believe drier air is advecting in which probably kills any chance of meaningful convection later today, combined with the rain cooled airmass in place now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how areas further north are doing wrt to destabilization though. from Upton: ORGANIZATION OF CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT WILL DEPEND ON WHERE AND WHEN UPSTREAM CLOUDS DISSIPATE TO INCREASE SFC BASED AND LOW LVL INSTABILITY. FOR NOW...CURRENT THINKING IS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCT TO BKN CONVECTION...LESS ORGANIZED THAN THIS MORNING...ALTHO ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT. STAY TUNED.

Well if it's drier at the mid levels, that's a good thing. As long as we can keep our surface somewhat moist and continue to destabilize, we can still do okay.

Euripides Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Have to say the thunderstorms so far this year are helping make up for the lack of snow this past winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowlover76 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 If we can get the sun to come out, (and have it stay out for a few hours), then I think that will allow for us to have some more thunderstorms later this afternoon, say around 4-6 PM, but none of those storms will be as good as they were earlier this morning.

Yeah Unc... 1.44 in. here... checked out church lightning strike... lighting strucked the very top of the bell tower just below the big cross.. tore a pretty good hole in the roof. The priest was joking that he is supposed to be tranfered to a different church and maybe someone was trying to tell them to keep him there lol.

IsentropicLift Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 If you take a look at the SPC site, we still have 1000-2000 j/kg of into northeast PA working its way SE into the area with 500-1000 j/kg scattered about this area. Here in Ramsey we have had mostly broken clouds until the past 15 minutes which is back to overcast looking skies. All this with 50+ effective bulk shear right over the area. If we can get a bit more instability working in, watch out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isotherm Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 everything lined up to the north, simply not enough left in the atmosphere down here. Not surprising as that's usually the case with intense morning convection. Most of our atmospheric energy has been utilized already, so it's difficult for much more than some spotty T-storms to develop. It's nice out here now, partly cloudy and humid, but the destabilization will not be sufficient to get severe convection initiated down here.
