I could barely see across the street and I had a small stream running through the backyard. 1 hour ago, snywx said: Very little severe today. The rain tho has been quite impressive I agree, you had quite a rain event up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FD was just on my street pumping out a few basements. 3-4" of rain in a short period of time will do it everytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out here its pretty rare. That is true. Suffolk in general feels like a different world compared to Queens (where I'm originally from) in terms of thunderstorms. Decent light shows are possible though, October 2015 was pretty epic & August 2016 was constant, although the actual storm was over CT. The south shore is the absolute worst, however. I hate it.

Cfa Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Getting dark again. Let the games begin. This is the best storm I've experienced since I've been on the south shore (almost a year now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in Sayville for 10 years ending in 2005. I recall many nice electrical storms with plenty of CTG lightning while I lived there. It was also a good place for strong winds for synoptic scale events (noreasters, etc...). It is a different world from other places in the metro area in terms of its weather. On the other hand it sucked in the winter time with snow events while I lived there. Having said that I would argue strongly that there is more snow with the present climate regime on virtually all of LI than where I live in eastern PA. I have lost count of the number of KU events that have occurred there since I moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have lost count of the number of KU events that have occurred there since I moved. I like Sayville, it's a nice little area. It's a little too close to the water for me, I'd be afraid of the flooding, and I can only imagine how strong those winds must've been during storms (especially Sandy) and flooding. The present climate regime on seems to be more snow and less thunderstorms on Long Island. After 2012 it all went downhill in terms of thunderstorms, some years I could the number of thunderstorms on a single hand, and they were generally lackluster.
