Mother nature is sure as hell angry!  Just non-stop thunder, c2g lightning, multiple strikes near house and no rain yet.  Quiet impressive ladt 7 minutes. 

[dmillz25]

It’s about to come down constant thunder 

[Allsnow]

Over .75 here! 

[Rtd208]

Very heavy rain back home in Carteret. 

[steve392]

Moderate rain now but the visual show of awesome lightning has not let up.

We had a very close flash of lightning followed by an absolute explosion of sound, crazy.

Easily the best storm of the year here.

Half inch and counting from this line with constant thunder and decent winds

Glad I held off adding water to the pool and the lawn going to love this deluge as second day of real water vs our chlorine town water.

Really should get a rain gauge as I have a nice open backyard for it.

Lots of buildings around me, but I imagine the shelf cloud looks amazing.

[doncat]

Very nice lightning and booming thunder show...0.87" in about 10 minutes, gusty winds 

[MJO812]

[SI Mailman]

Line breaking up on cue as it hits the marine influenced air. We’ll see how much can survive east of Queens.

Honestly, it was pretty lame here (Roosevelt Island). Heavy rain for a few minutes, preceded by some thunder and lightning.  Took the temps down a bit though.

[steve392]

Just hit the 1" rainfall mark. It had turned pitch black at one point.  Haven't had that happen in a veryyyyy long time by me. 

[cleetussnow]

I split the goal posts and barely got anything.  The road under the tree isn’t even wet.  Damn. Sprinkler going on shortly.

[jm1220]

Light to maybe mod rain.
