Central Park should have it's title as NYC's official weather site taken away at this point! It's becoming embarrassing and the difference gets worse and worse, each year!

That aa co storm was putting out a healthy amount of lightning.

Geez Snowen those pics!! "on this episode of Storm Chasers..."

I had a brief shower with a rumble or 2 of thunder around 8 this evening. I'm very grateful for the inch I picked up Monday when most were dry!

Cross posting here since it concerns some none severe weather

An exciting couple of hours weather wise! Honestly, once the first round passed I assumed it was over until I heard some thunder in the distance. After looking at the radar I instantly rushed off to the Herndon metro parking garage as it has the best skyline I know of. Got there in time to watch the shelf cloud develop and then roll in. Before becoming part of the "# of people struck by lightning a year" statistic I made sure to get a picture of my trusty stead: The humble CRV. Afterwards, I decided to ride out the storm inside of the parking garage as driving home on FFX County parkway did not seem like a good time. Eventually, I decided to take a video of the storm coming in. Could hear the metal signs clanging throughout the empty garage. Was pretty freaky. Finally, as the storm passed I saw a double rainbow appear. I attempted to get a lightning rainbow picture to complete my collection but had no such luck; though I personally hold the mental image with me. Lo and behold, just as I was packing up, another rainbow appeared which was even more vibrant than the first! Finally, I headed on homeward where I was met with a tree in the road. Additional limbs came down on fences, and even my neighbors windshield. Now, this (if I was smart) is where I should've realized that we will have an awesome sunset due to the past convection and humid air combined with the advantageous June sun angle and thus rushed to some open space to capture what might be the sunset of the year. Sadly, I only realized it was occurring as it passed (I'm sure there is a lesson in this) and realized a 10 minute drive would reward me only with deepening twilight. So, I sat back and watched what I could from my driveway.

Absolutely sick of missing storms here in Death Valley but at least we got a beautiful sunset out of it. More fireflies are out tonight as well.

Finally caught the edge of a storm and got around a third of an inch. But damn just 2-3 miles up the road from me has gotten two flush hits in three days.

Give you props for trying. Sorry it was disappointing.

Very brief downpour earlier and one rumble of thunder. Registered 0.03".

This is hands down one of the best tornado videos I have ever seen. Hopefully a long format one is to follow.

The storm that just came through Annapolis was pretty intense. BGE says 22,000 without power in Anne Arundel County. We had lights flickering for about 10 minutes.

Ended up going north and catching 84 in Newtown and following storms along 84 into Waterbury. Wind wasn’t much but some lightning, a few loud booms, and very heavy rain.

Getting darker:

beautiful sunset tonight

Oh, I think I know what he meant - it just wasn’t at first clear he meant the 3 SD itself

EF-1 confirmed in Somers near Kenosha. Missed me by a few miles. That is the second confirmed tornado in the little town of Somers this season. https://www.fox6now.com/news/wisconsin-confirmed-tornado-thursday-061126.amp

Got to love the long light. Left the GFs house in Boston this morning at 4: 00am. Hardly even dark with the extended dawn and early sunrise.

Yeah spectacular sunset! Brighter to the east, so strange! Reflecting off the storms out that way!

except for those two peaks that are higher
