Severe Weather ?

The power came back on between 3 - 4 in the morning which makes the smoke detectors beep a few times. I always check the oil in the generator after a use and before so last night about 9:10 pm I decided to double check the oil (it was good) by the time I came back in the house, the lights had flickered a few times and then the power went out at 9:14 pm. I went back out and I hooked up the genny, we watched a DVDand then called it a night.

Some person was driving on route 56 just south of here when they hit a tree that came down, they were ok but I'm not sure about the car, if the tree was a hardwood tree then someone will burn it.

 

we have had it so hot today here,and tomorow will be hotter.thats our summer out the way.

 

tornado watch for my area til 8pm

for over a week now we have had very nice weather,and its going on been up in the 70s.the royal wedding was good for them weather wise.

 

Mostly east of us now.. Or 20 or so miles WNW of Plattsburgh..

 

Under severe thunderstorm watch til 11, looked like it was going south of us, but nope!

 

Massive wind and sheeting rain right now.

 

That front went through at 6:30 pm. Several downed trees and one house struck by lightning about a mile from here. Fire dept scanner was busy for quite a while.

 

I just checked the weather radar and I didn't realize more rain is on the way. We could use a bit more as we are just starting to get into a drought.

The FD dispatched a rescue boat for a kayaker that was out on a pond. The wind and lightning set in within minutes and they must have gotten overwhelmed out there.

 

It looks like we could have some not so nice winds coming this way, I better check how much gas we have on hand for the generator.
