Heavy rain, gusty winds, and lots of lightning with this little storm near 78. Not bad for a pop up storm.

Didn't expect the pop ups.  It also looks like the storm up north is intensifying a bit and developing back to the south.  I might get clipped by it.

I was watching the lightning from that cell in the northwest sky. I see a few little downpours to the west in Somerset County -- hoping to get one here in a little while.

Heavy rain, wind, and constant flashes here.  Oddly though, not a lot of thunder.

Same here.  Getting CLIPPED by small fast moving storm just to my south.  Brief heavy rain but moving through fast.  Lots of lightning to my north and south with rolling thunder.

I am forced to eat my previous post.  It is ripping up here, 60 lightening strikes in the past few minutes according to accuweather.  Torrential rain, and wind too.  Really blew up again for some.  My rain gauge is out of commission, but underground stations around me are showing over 1/2 inch and counting.  It looks like upwards of 1.5" out towards Sandyston where they also got the first batch earlier.

Newton / Sparta area look to be getting a good whack.

Crashing thunder and vivid lightning display off to my north now.  Just very light rain here now.  The downpour lasted 90 seconds. Small storm fizzled as it past just south of me.

Yeah getting a heavy downpour now with a good amount of lightning and gusty winds. I wasn't optimistic earlier so I'm very pleased to be getting something.

We are.  That storm to the north really blew up and developed a nice southern component.  The lightening has been non-stop and we're past 0.6" of rain according to two nearby gauges on weather underground.  Lots of rolling thunder now.  Our dog is having a rough go of it.

0.35" from that storm. Not bad. Obviously doesn't put a dent in the drought, but enough to give the vegetable garden a much-needed watering. For a change I won't have to water tomorrow.

Rainoved into my area finally.  Had what sounds like very small hail hitting window ac unit. 

[steve392]

Nice little cell developed over us.  Dumping rain right now. Incredible light show outside. Tons of thunder.

Storm weakened on approach then strengthened when past so just 0.09" with a 30mph gust.

Sw Nassau just got rocked by a pulse cell. Small hail and extremly heavy rain, very brief 50+ mph gusts. Literally appeared on radar after passing jfk. That was an amazing surprise
