Meanwhile, I saw some lightening strikes from high rise in lower Manhattan. Pretty dramatic from that perspective. I left soon after, took the train, got back above ground 30 mins later and it was partial sunshine. No idea if it actually rained, but didn't really look like it. Doesn't sound like I missed much.

They get great storms down there. The most severe storm I have personally witnessed was the college park Maryland tornado storm. Only rotating supercell I have ever been through. 

Storms are going poof as they hit the marine layer

Was a bust up this way. It got grey and windy but only drizzled. I got a lot more rain from the pre sunrise storms that rolled through.
