NY WeatherMom Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Nice! thanks for posting the pics Your welcome. It's been a while since we've had that much hail during a storm. I wish it hadn't played havoc with my camera lens-it was pretty cool. Entering the season I like-thunderstorms and lighting for pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJay Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Good part of central and NE NY State in play for some action today. This kind of surprises me that the 10% threat jumped far to the NE. I hope it stays quite for all after the last three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it stays quite for all after the last three days. Things realy stablize when you look at Orange county, esp. eastern sections. Marine layer doing it's job. Surface winds are southerly on the east side. At KGBM surface winds are out of the SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t mean to infer that I expected severe in OC I was surprised that the highest percent prob for tornado’s jumped from the mid-west to the north east in NYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staying awake for a while longer to see if Southern Dutchess will be rocked. I can do without a storm with rotation at this hour-during the day funnels are much easier to see like we did in May 2000 overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY WeatherMom Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Cool gust front but thats about it.radar presentation is less impressive on each scan, warning expired time for bed A brief burst of wind-really nothing to write home about. A few rumbles of thunder and big fat rain drops. Nothing really going on with it-which at this hour is a good thing. I knew a good 15 mins before the storm was to get here-one of cats slinks around and caterwauls-then hides in the bathroom. Not a happy kitty at all-but a great predictor of weather!

Not a happy kitty at all-but a great predictor of weather! Yeah, the storms started to rapidly collapse as they approached NYS. As Hudson Valley said, we had a persistent SE flow.

TJay Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Story about thursday night's storms. http://www.recordonl.../NEWS/105280328 Sullivan and Ulster suffer hardest blows By Jeremiah HorriganTimes Herald-RecordPublished: 2:00 AM - 05/28/11 Remnants of the lethal winds that ripped through the Midwest this week swept through Ulster and Sullivan counties Thursday night, leaving thousands without power while forcing the closing of several roads clogged with toppled trees and broken branches. A spinning "supercell" thunderstorm coursed up to the northern reaches of Ulster County, barely skirting the City of Kingston while slamming through Woodstock, Hurley, Marbletown and Olive, according to meteorologist Tom Kines of Accuweather. Supercells are among the rarest types of thunderstorms, and potentially the most severe. There were roughly 13,000 power outages in Ulster, 6,000 in Sullivan County and about 1,100 in Orange County. About 10,000 of those outages in Ulster and 300 in Sullivan had been restored by mid-afternoon Friday. There were no reports of injuries. Spokesmen for utilities said they hoped to restore complete service by Friday night, barring another storm. Although the worst appeared to be over on Friday morning, Kines warned that the region was still not out of nature's cross hairs. A concern for additional storms on Friday and over the weekend was also voiced by Denise Van Buren, spokeswoman for Central Hudson Gas and Electric. The damage, she said, was more extensive than it might have been because the region didn't have the serious sort of snowstorm that usually takes down dead trees and branches. "So it all came down last night," Van Buren said. Late May weather can be treacherous, with hot, humid air moving in even as cooler air from Canada continues to linger, Kines said. "Whenever you've got that kind of contrast, there's a price to pay," he said. One such price was exacted when the storm spooked a horse in Greenville. The horse bolted its stable and needed to be rescued by firefighters Friday morning after the animal became mired in chest-deep mud in a nearby swamp off Tap Stone Lane. The horse's hindquarters were injured by barbed wire in the mud, but it was taken to a Pine Bush animal hospital and is expected to recover, according to Greenville Fire Department Chief Bill Butler.

Logan11 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 No severe storms here Thursday night, but when that line approached we got really strong straight line winds despite only modest thunder and rain. It knocked power out here for five hours during the overnight period. Last night the stuff from Central NY finally reached us around 1 AM with modest storms....
