LongBeachSurfFreak Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I have seen this show 1000 time out here on the island. Looks more like a late spring squall line then mid August. I was hoping the warmer waters would keep this together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestHillWx Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 One last cell developed right over head. Closing in on 1.25" total for tonight. Jungle like greenery for mid-August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NycStormChaser Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Didn't get much in the way of cloud to ground lightning photos. 99 percent was cloud to cloud. Maybe that baby cell on the backend will give me something to take home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 You guys that want good lightning ought to come up here. It's been crackling, rumbling and grumbling consistently for an hour and a half now. Short rounds of very heavy rain started around 6 and by 9 it became mostly steady moderate to heavy and hasn't let up since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I hate this and the cold of Feb & Mar 2015, so the sooner this ends the better. Just once I'd like to be able to sleep with the windows open.

Multiple rounds of impressive storms. The first cell crossing the Hudson at around 645 with frequent massive cloud to ground lightning was an epic sight. Strong winds, torrential rain and frequent vivid lightning on 3 rounds so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
