Whoa, awesome lightning storm tonight!! I don't think I've ever seen this many all in such a short period of time ever. Isn't it funny to be under a flash flood warning at ~7300' lol
The storm last Tuesday whacked us. 1” of rain, and high winds. I came home to a toppled blueberry cover and flattened garden, but no damage to the buildings. Maybe a dozen trees snapped.
I got a full day of drizzle, not a storm in sight just dark, gray and damp. Managed to pick up a 1/4" of in the rain gauge. I was hoping for and inch or two.
here in the uk we have had it so hot, for the last week up in london there are fires and corn fields burning.
It's coming at us.

This is from Syracuse.com. One national meteorological model shows 3 to 5 inches of rain could fall in counties along the New York State Thruway, but local weather service meteorologists expect significantly less than that. Forecasters in the Binghamton office, which covers Central New York and the Finger Lakes, expect more on the order of 1.5 to 2.5 inches across much of the region. In areas that are hit repeatedly by clusters of thunderstorms, however, more rain could fall. ‘Absolute mess’ of a storm system could bring power outages, flooding to Upstate NY
