Yeah I left that part out lol, I’m so accustomed to both gunshots and fireworks that I can tell which one is which. Subtle differences, but after a while you can hear it.
Way less gunshots here in LI than in Queens though.
Am I the only one that finds it soothing? I’m from Jamaica, Queens, anything too quiet feels suspicious lol.
The humming of Air conditioners, Cicadas, fireworks and ice cream trucks = sounds of summer.
Finally home. All traffic lights were out except one. Saw quite a few of CTG’s while on the LIE, some uncomfortably close.
1.13” here and still going, we really needed this.
Tiny cell just blew up right to my east, if I get no rain I’m gonna be pretty pissed. It’s literally like feet away.
Edit: This is some sort of sick joke lol. No rain and several very near misses over the last few days, but this one missed me a few hundred feet.
I see a not so surprising number of people on social media conflating hail with sleet/graupel....
“Hail in the summer??” Umm...yes?
Congrats though, hail is one weather phenomenon that I’ve yet to experience.
