Skies have cleared in the last half hour and it turned into a nice evening. Bone dry here. Lake Erie, even as warm as it is, has redirected all the rain away from us the last few weeks. Serious rain shadow. I’ll water tonight and looks like nothing incoming for the next several days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthBuffaloSteve Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Watching quite the light show from the arm pit of WNY weather (aka The Transition Zone). Nothing more than a sprinkle here throughout the day. Waterspout activity on Lake Erie earlier today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Yeah some pretty good storms moved through. Heavy rain, quite a bit of close lightning, and decent winds. Severe Tstorm warning went up for them. Had to be 1-2" of rain. Really mad I missed the waterspouts. Dunkirks a good distance from here. Can't wait for waterspout season in September.
