Heavy rain and lightning here in Brick. Winds were probably like 40mph or so when it rolled in

Had a nice downpour about an hour ago. Another cell popped up over my area, but it looks like only the north side of town is getting rain right now.

Hearing cicadas for the first time this summer.

My town cancelled their fireworks tonight. Now we'll see if that was the right call.

Had a good 10 minute downpour and some wind.

Getting slammed by that cell that popped up in front of the line in Union county.

Getting hit in New Providence. Torrential rain and lots of lightning strikes

Was out cycling and saw the Morris county storm to my west. Checked the radar 20 minutes later, and it's coming east. I needed to go west to get home lol. Managed to beat it, but barely. Here's a photo I took in Chatham when I first noticed it.

Pretty good storm down here, though not as wild as I was expecting from the radar presentation. Winds looked around 45mph or so with torrential rain. No hail luckily. Currently getting intermittent CG strikes on the back end.

Incoming!

Haha, I'm still in Brick. Was going to leave around now, but I think I'll stay for the storm.

Shelf cloud from the storm in Brick. Got some dime to penny sized hail for a few minutes in-between the torrential downpours.

View from my deck. It looks like we're on Venus or something.

Smoke getting denser here in NW Union county. I can't see the hills across from me anymore which are about a mile and half away. 

Had to bring my house plants in last night.

Full sun here in Union county. 66 degrees now.

Did those people tumble over the rocks into the water or did the gate stop all the people being pushed? 

Looks like there's a couple people in the water at the end.

This video made it to Reddit and someone commented that their brother, girlfriend, and two dogs were in that red house/business during the storm. You can actually see someone open the door near the beginning of the video. Apparently they all survived, but were swept out and clung to palm trees. Here's the post.

Is Piotrowski down there? His breathy panicked commentary is always a highlight of hurricane season.

They round? Wow, that's BS.

Sarasota, 135mph

Not too surprised. Damn near anything that meanders into the Caribbean Sea turns into a monster. 

Light echoes on radar over me but I've heard like two blasts of thunder.

Can already hear thunder and see some bolts of lightning from that storm entering Somerset county 

Nearby personal wx stations reporting about .40 so far.
