Seems like the conditions are brewing up properly for some afternoon boomers. Very little sunshine today, I just now rolled it back into the shop.
The heavier rains and storms have been missing us so far this summer but our area has a Special Weather Statement today.

A very unstable air mass will lead to strong to severe thunderstorm development across portions of northern New York and Vermont this afternoon. Thunderstorms are expected to develop around noon and continue through sunset before reducing in intensity and ending around midnight. The greatest threat for severe storms will be across Essex County of New York and south of US Route 2 in Vermont where the primary threat will be damaging winds and dangerous cloud to ground lightning. Large hail is also possible, in addition to brief torrential rainfall. If you have outdoor plans this afternoon into early this evening, keep a close eye on forecasts and warnings. Have a plan to move to a sturdy shelter if threatening weather approaches your location. Remember, when thunder roars, head indoors! Be sure to listen for additional updates, including any watches or warnings, from your National Weather Service, media outlets and NOAA Weather Radio.
Sure is nutty weather, in the past 35 minutes it's now blue sky and puffy clouds with a lot of sunshine.
i had a big one blow up west of me yesterday afternoon...it was growing rapidly and went severe with 60mph winds and penny size hail.....i was watching it come over the mtn from my yard and it started breaking up....NWS pulled the warning and the whole thing just imploded into nothing within only a few mins....got a sprinkle
So far things are starting up east of us, it looks like Vermont and east could be in for a interesting afternoon or night.
My above 2 "likes" indicate acknowledgement and sympathy, and in no way approve 92* & humid nor swamp azz
Dodged us. Went north, but reports of trees down southern NH. Those low, dark gray clouds always concern me. Of course I have to go outside to see what's going on. Not much rain.
