Booming heard here.  We live right across the river from Stowe Country Club and their lightning horn has gone off a couple times this morning so far.

Pretty rare to see so much lightning for 9am in the morning in September.  The bulk is crossing the Champlain Valley now but a few pretty decent booms even out here in Stowe.

 

Lost power with that line earlier today

Nothing will ever top Sandy, 1 in 250 year storm

Any chance the trough on Wednesday either slows down or becomes a bit more negative tilt

Yeah, BTV is the true snow hole pit relative to latitude and surrounding climate.  Much more than ALB.  

GFL/Queensbury is actually a sneaky great winter spot. They are right at the mouth of the Adirondack Park and they clean up in SWFE type winters.  They CAD surprisingly well and always seem to have snow cover.  I remember like 4 feet on the ground there in 07-08.  

I would bet money that GFL gets more than 65” a year, isn’t ALB 62”? I would’ve guessed 75-80”.  

Going North from Albany snow on the ground always starts just south of GFL and is usually solid by Warrensburg.  From there the further west you go the better as you get elevation, great retention and eventually LES

ranchers and loggers are trying to clear the forest for their own use, ignoring the fact that the Amazon provides about 20% of the oxygen we breathe

 

That 20 percent figure is not correct, the world is not in danger of running out of oxygen.

We don't need the rain, haven't watered grass once this summer and it's dark green

I think this is the best lightning I have seen from such a far distance. Some sick bolts going up into the anvil 

That's the hail core that was over Somers

81 and 82 at the long island beaches, you would think dews are equal if they were reporting

Winds will be more westerly tomorrow 

Should still have afternoon sea breeze each day, winds are more SW

No big warmup here today, seabreeze in control on S winds. Still crazy humid but worst is definitely from the city west. No heatwave here-just a Sat and Sun warmup. 

Should have sea breeze each day

Nice morning so far

same up here-only made it to 74 with the east winds and showers all day

Same poured all day, JFK was south of the backdoor and had little rain.

Raining all day today

I think convection potential Friday Saturday and Sunday is being underplayed.

Nothing too impressive atm

I am hoping that the Euro is correct about the heavy rain potential Thursday night. We can really use the rain. Almost looks like a wannabe PRE with the tropical development in the Gulf. Not sure if the features are close enough to technically be called a PRE. But any rain after the dry last few weeks would be welcome.

 

We don't need the rain at all
