ag3 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Wow!!! I'm in the Plainview cell on LIE. Traffic at a standstill. Very bad storm. 40-50mph+ winds hail and torrential rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blizzardof09 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 the line of storms on the island looks like its moving more south now. any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Wow I'm on the LIE and there's pretty frequent cloud to ground lightning. It didn't start raining yet though. I didn't even expect to be hit with anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 the line of storms on the island looks like its moving more south now. any thoughts? I'm in Lindenhurst and have some towers going up over me. Hearing some thunder, but nothing too exciting. Hope it's not robbing me of the action that looks to be heading in from the North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeEater Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 the line of storms on the island looks like its moving more south now. any thoughts? Not moving south at all, pretty much straight due east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Best storm I've been in since the tornado and Macroburst in 2010. Have to actually check roof of car for dents from the hail. Seeing trees and large limbs down just off side of LIE. Tough to gauge in car but winds had to be over 60mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Looks like I'm in the screw zone here. Storms going just to my north and east. Keeps raining on and off. http://www.wunderground.com/radar/radblast.asp?zoommode=zoom&num=6&delay=15&rbscale=0.16608260869565217&scale=0.321&noclutter=0&ID=OKX&type=N0R&lat=40.68881989&lon=-73.37693787&label=Lindenhurst,%20NY&showstorms=10&map.x=392&map.y=158¢erx=518¢ery=61&lightning=0&smooth=0&showlabels=1&rainsnow=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I think it's hailing now in Brentwood, that or super heavy raindrops It's still sunny too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing trees and large limbs down just off side of LIE. Tough to gauge in car but winds had to be over 60mph. How big was the hail on LIE by Plainview? When the cell went through my parent's house in Muttontown near Northern Blvd. my bro said it was about pea size hail only. My weather station had about .30 of rain in 10 min, so a nice quick hit of rain, only gusted to 21MPH though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmagan Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Deer Park Avenue between Sunrise Highway and Montauk Highway is seeing quite a bit of hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 SmokeEater, any gate-to-gate estimate for the wind shear velocities for that storm if any? Nah, not much rotation at all, everything seems to be weakening at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing trees and large limbs down just off side of LIE. Tough to gauge in car but winds had to be over 60mph. I think I missed the worst of it. The trees aren't even flinching here. The rain/mixed hail is intense though, & the sun still manages to be out in all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmagan Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 2.37" inch diameter hail marker, per Analyst near Islip again for the second time in as many weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Nah, not much rotation at all, everything seems to be weakening at this point. I take that back, the one over the central part of LI is not. 2 inch hail marker in GR2AE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 last destructive Derecho around here in Middlesex/Union counties was the labor day 1998 - many of the younger guys and gals around here might or might not remember - but its something I will never forget 100 mph winds and $ 3000 damage to the house - too bad they are so destructive kind of takes the fun away tracking them ......thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of the Derecho a couple days ago..... Yeah, that map has our region in the derecho every 2 yrs zone. Our last one was 1998, 14 years ago, so I guess we're way overdue for one. The 1990s generally were a helluva lot better T-storm wise than the 2000s. Have to take the good with the bad -- less T-storms, more snow...vice versa.

Hailstorm Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 SmokeEater: Thanks for the updates. I remember you from last year giving out very useful information about shear velocities and what not during the Super Tornado outbreak last year in the South last year. I did not post but was lurking and reading those threads in the Central and Southern states where you posted. I'm glad you are posting in this region too. I have a feeling something big will happen in this region soon, maybe a derecho since we're overdue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx.1028 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Painful to watch storms go to my north, east, and then west. I feel your pain. I`m sitting here watching storms die before reaching my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Newarks dp dropped to 59 and it was a good indicator of the nw wind shift in response to the prefrontal trough...that should pretty much end the severe threat for Northern NJ and its quickly moving eastward as well and bringing the dry air with it.

Hailstorm Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Has anyone checked the 18z models concerning the MCS potential for Wednesday - Thursday? I heard in the SNE thread that the setup is somewhat favorable for supercells in that region for those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Painful to watch storms go to my north, east, and then west. Painful to be under the "red" part (on radar) of a storm and getting nothing but rain & sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
