It was sporting an impressive wall cloud structure a few minutes ago as the cell passed just to my north. There's no fast/good road east so I couldn't get out ahead of it, unfortunately.

Wow. So, is there no tornado with storm or can you not see below the wall cloud?

Yikes! Some pretty low CC values with that storm near Amenia.

I'm in Brookfield CT right now and that cell is sliding by to the north and east. It's ugly, roiling clouds, black as could be and with a kickass outflow boundary that's stirring things up pretty good here.

looks like NYC metro is missing out on everything again today? 

Yes the warm front and best dynamics is further north than what the models were showing .   Perhaps we can get some scattered convection between 6-9pm. If not the threat is done.

So this post couldn't be any more wrong. The atmosphere is plenty unstable. Just a matter of storm motion.

The warm front just enhances the shear locally but the rest of the region is still in play for severe weather. It's just that the tornado threat is much lower.

Lee Goldberg just showed a futurecast that showed a strong line of storms going through northern Jersey and NYC around 10pm. It's just 1 model and we don't know if it'll be correct, but it's a possibility.

The 18z 3k NAM has two lines moving through the area, one around 00z and the next one at 06z. The line moving through CT smacks Suffolk.

Actually now that I’m looking storms are firing in western NY state. That could be our shot later on tonight

The HRRR has another line developing from PA to LI in a couple of hours. It's not as intense but at the same time it might be under doing the current storms.

Rainfall reports of 1/2-1.9 inches so far parts of se NYS into s central CT in our forum area.  A nice start...  going to be interesting on some of these numbers by 03Z/Sunday...esp CT, se NYS and maybe  LI.  UKMET extreme of 7" may not be far off the mark...just don't know where yet.  Events have to overlap.  Should be a few interesting numbers of 2+"  by midnight tonight.
