OBS-Discussion Today and Sunday (7/25 and 7/27) isolated scattered SVR-FF storms-especially NJ-LI

[Cfa]

Heavy rain and rumbles of thunder in Manhattan. Trees are stationary. Boring. A puff of wind would be nice.

I haven’t experienced a proper severe thunderstorm in ages.

[Dark Star]

Perhaps some fractured mammatus at the leading edge in Garwood?  Nice close thunderbolt, wind from different directions, then a nice pouring rain.

Definitely intensifying now ugh

I think it's gonna miss me just a few miles to the north. I wish you the best in Plainfield ... it's a close call being near the southern edge of the cell. I hope you don't get it too bad.

So a nice strong t-storm but far from severe. That's good.

They are and they're aimed at places north of 78 right now. The other batch in PA we'll see.  But quick moving doesn’t matter if they have 70 mph winds

The models were right in bringing the rain in at 4 pm in the city.  It hasn't made it here yet, we just got cloudy at 4 pm but it's still in the 90s here and I just heard my first thunder at 4:06 pm

[winterwx21]

I see another tiny cell popped up in Somerset, and of course we have more back in PA. I'm hoping to get some rain here.

Yup certainly looks like it north of the metro. However that last line that just passed Middletown could provide us with something as it approaches 

[ag3]

Very impressive storm here.

Strong winds, ton of lightning and heavy rain.

Nothing here yet, did you make it to 100 before the storms hit?

My high was 96 and it probably wasn't going to get higher than that even without the storms, as the high temperature happened an hour and a half before the clouds showed up and then just hovered near there right through 4 PM.
