That’ll bust out windshields real quick, thanks fully the hail here was much smaller and caused no damage but was definitely loud as hell on the roof. Flash Flood Warning now up as well 1.9” of rain here in about an hour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthBuffaloSteve Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Lots of water rescues going on around the city under viaducts. Not sure why people are even out driving with the curfew. We got smoked by that cell! That was the most intense storm I can remember in quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaT13 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Round 2 is charging across Michigan and on schedule to hit buffalo again around 8-9am. We’ll see what happens as diurnal effects usually weaken and turn these systems sharply south. Could be a hell of a 12 hour window of storms though.

BuffaloWeather Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 So its pretty funny. Not sure if I told anyone this or not. But my next door neighbor is a photographer and storm chaser. She chases tornadoes all over the midwest. It was destiny to move next door to someone that loves the weather as much as I do. We talk about it all the time. A few pictures from her. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaT13 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 While the presence and placement of last nights storms was well forecasted, the intensity was a huge miss. Quite fascinating to see an event like this occur with very little advanced warning. The Hazardous Weather product called out Gusty Winds and heavy rain as the primary threat, and confidence seemed low from the verbiage in the discussions. We ended up with 60,000ft storms spitting golf ball size hail, winds gusting to 70mph, rain rates near 3-5"/hr, and continuous cloud to ground lightning for well over an hour in some locations. It's kind of fun to know that a storm can still catch us almost completely off-guard. We had the best snowstorm of the year the second week of November. We had nice Spring weather in March. And we just saw the most intense thunderstorms that we'll see all summer and potentially for several years happen the first week of June. We've really blown our loads early these last few seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Wondering what BUF did to anger the atmosphere so much (purposely lose at hockey??). After bullseye-ing BUF last night and to a lesser extent this morning, a narrow little storm just popped up and sat on....BUF! I know the storms are fun to watch and all, but...i have dead flowers/garden plants from hail, water ponding in the yard, and it's basically been nightime in early June for the last 18 hours (dark as night most of the day today). Freaking enough already. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
