My oldest son works downtown, before COVID-19 hit he would spend close to two hours each way taking the train out of Campbell Hall and then the Path from Hoboken. Even with the coin he makes that commute everyday is not for me. That said, he's been working from a private beach house in SC since the end of March and who knows what the future is as far as remote working for those who can.

How’d the quotes go?

Only picked up .09 with the second cell

Rather loud thunder here with plenty of lightning bolts as the next cell approaches.

Luckily the ground was still moist from yesterday’s more gentle rainfall so not all of it rain off, we got some soakage. Now eyes turn to our NW to see what that line does.

Nice. Had some minor washouts of my driveway.

.58” in the Davis .62” in the Status, back to bright sunshine ahead of the next line.

The rainfall rate peaked at 4.14” per hour, .51” in the Davis now with lighter rain still falling, will have to go check the Stratus when it’s done as that was quite the downpour.

Under a cell that popped up just to my west decent lightning and thunder, no hail but a peak rainfall rate of 3.02” per hour right now.

The one hailer is just to my north by a few miles.

Close to golf ball sized hail on the ground out near Port Jervis.

Just saw a social media pic of close to golf ball sized hail out near Port Jervis.

You should’ve stayed

.51” here, puts me just over an inch for the week, for a change.

I have the Black and Decker 40v weed whacker, blower and 12” chainsaw, love them, so easy to use and maintain. The blower is ok, good for the grass clippings after mowing and leaves on the walk but you’re not going to get far with heavy leaves in the yard come fall but that’s ok, I have another blower for that when needed.

Clearly you’re on to something Walt as the SPC has some of us in the Slight area.

Maybe add a tarp to your coffer?

.55 in the Stratus...winning!!

Absolutely crushed here! .52”

Personally, no but that’s due to my location within a county park. The area in general, yes, my infant grandson was disturbed numerous times last night while trying to go to sleep where my son lives in Middletown. There was an article in the local paper this morning about the issue.

Brown fields as far as the eye can see here as well, sitting at .37” for June here. This only increases the fire risk with all the amateur fireworks these days.

I’d water. Even if there are showers there’s no guarantee where they will be or how much they will drop. It’s super dry here any thunderstorm I get now will certainly just run off.

Much like reading somes posts

Euro showing a total of .10” of rain here in the next 10 days...
