July 1st 2016 Severe Threat Observations

the second line we had was much stronger than the first one I was driving on Pelham Parkwayand part of it was under water it has been a while since we had 2 heavy thunderstorms come threw I must ended up with 1 half of rain we def needed it

Only picked up .18" here

Was at the Mets game and saw Mike, 2nd rain delay was a doozy. Lots of lightning, and folks were staying up in the top levels, they really should have been evacuated out of there. .25" here in NNJ.

Looks like I missed a good severe weather outbreak. There probably won't be another one until the next time I go away. Any tornados?

Welcome back Frank. There were reports of a tornado up in southern Dutchess County, although it hasn't been confirmed yet.

Welcome back frank I hope u had a great vacation .I don't think there was no tornados just tons of rain and thunderstorms esp the 2nd line that came threw at 930.

There was rotation in at least 2 cells, one in Poughkeepsie and one later over Bergen County. Welcome back Frank!

Hail was reported in our area yesterday. Got blitzed with a storm that blew over us yesterday afternoon. Fast, but incredible storm, wish you had witnessed it! Other than that, most of the County got sandwiched between cells to the north and south, only reported .46" here. EWR only reported .20".

The cell from the last rain delay at the Met game in the 6th inning was intense with heavy rain, lightning, and thunder.  Meanwhile, here was Vic Dibitetto's take on the storms last night:

Haha, Vic is great.

Overall a decent event then. Nice!!

POU confirmed, eyewitness accounts of a tornado that caused a good amount if damage up there last night about 430pm. Virgaman on the other board reported it and a friend of mine who lives in POU said so as well.

Way to lick off July here peeps with another possible MCS Tuesday, GFS and CMC show it alng with NAM!!!

I took this video at Citi Field in NYC on Friday night as the tarp came off the field in the third inning. I had noticed on the radar that another cell was approaching us from northeastern New Jersey, and the clouds and lightning were visible from where I was. Here I am pointing out that there could be a long night ahead as another rain delay could happen. As it turns out, the cell I was looking at would bypass us but a cell a bit further south would hammer us with heavy rain, lightning, and thunder in the top of the sixth inning of the Mets-Cubs game, a game the Mets would go on to win 10-2. I am with my college friend (Janet, he was with me when I saw you there). If you're wondering which voice is which, I am speaking at 0:20 saying "I'm looking at the radar" and my friend at 0:29 says "Yea"

Very muggy 73*, hope everyone had good and safe 4th.

Yes it certainly looks hot this week actually more humid. Average highs mid-to-upper 80s in our area now so low nineties is only several degrees above normal. I can take the Heat but not the humidity. The pattern the next two weeks looks like heat followed by a few days of Cooler less humid weather and then back to the Heat and humidity. Not too bad with the breaks in between. we just have to get through this month August is much more tolerable as the days are shorter and the nights longer.

Also with the high humidity chance for severe weather this week especially Saturday with cold frontal Passage

our first heat wave of the year heat advisory are up in southwest jersey and parts of pa ugh i hate the heat esp mid 90s cant wait for the fall
