I experienced a very impressive storm in Brooklyn on the Belt Pkwy while driving earlier.  Besides strong winds, lightning , and torrential rains I went through a small intense hail core near Ocean Pkwy.  This was big hail with stones up to one inch in diameter.  I was in stop and go traffic at the time so I could not take photos.  I honestly thought my windshield would be taken out!  Flooding from this storm produced flooding on the Belt that blocked two lanes near Cropsey Ave.  Time of this was about 6:45 PM

The big temperature swings pattern continues. We saw something like this with the record warmth and hard freeze earlier this spring. Now it looks like afternoon temperatures will be the upper 40s to low 50s on Saturday following the upper 90s a few days ago.

Funny how things kind of even out

Steady light to sometimes moderate rain ongoing.  Very chilly and damp with temperature currently at 54 degrees.   Had an overnight low of 50.

As of 8am had received .12".  Ongoing rains will moisten the soil so that the upcoming weekend rains will be more able to soak in instead of just initially running off.  Going to put some fertilizer down tomorrow.  Been waiting for some decent rains to apply it.

Totals as of 8am this morning.  Some places did really well. Click to zoom.
