Under a FFW. It’s pouring with occasional thunder and lightning. A few loud booms.

[LongBeachSurfFreak]

JFK .27” and .18” here in Lynbrook. Major but not surprising precipitation fail for the south shore.

[doncat]

0.59" here, was expecting more as usual. Questionable what falls today.

[BxEngine]

Couple houses in rockland got struck by lightning. Over 2” now. 

[JerseyWx]

Got hit pretty good last night with soaking rain.

I had about .50" yesterday, and just over an inch since midnight.  I'm happy with that.

[Intensewind002]

Only about a tenth of an inch overall here in Lindenhurst Edit: 0.11" to be exact

[uofmiami]

0.96” in Muttontown & 0.94” in Syosset with rain popping on radar.

[winterwarlock]

While yesterdays first 2 rounds during the so called severe threat produced less than a quarter inch of rain. Rounds 3 and 4 of just plain rain between 9 and midnight delivered pushing my total to 1.16. A much needed drink for the lawns

[SACRUS]

70 / 68 clouds mist / fog.  Clouds linger today with another round of rain / showers before the low moves out later today.  Gorgeous Wed/ Thu coming up before next round of showers Friday and splitting the weekend with a wet/cloudy Saturday and nice Sunday.   Overall warmer to close the month as ridge builds over the midwest heat focussed more inland as onshore NE tendency along the coast/shores, but next round of heat possibly 6/29 - 7/4.  Take a look at the July Fourth 7/3 - 7/6 weekend period as it comes more into range.  

6/23 : Cloudy / more showers
6/24 - 6/25 :  Dry/ near normal
6/26 - 6/2 7 :   Next shot at rain
6/28 - 7/4 :  Ridge ovrerall warmer - hot (inland form the beaches)
7/5 - beyond :  Overall warm / humid

Historical:

1586: Sir Francis Drake arrived near Roanoke Island, only to be greeted by a storm. It was described as "extraordinary" and lasted three days. His fleet was in great danger during the tempest. The Primrose broke its 250-pound anchor. Hail the size of hen eggs pelted the colony. Waterspouts also threatened the mariners. The settlers evacuated back to England soon after the storm. (Ref. for Storm of 1586)

1902 - The temperature at Volcano Springs, CA, soared to 129 degrees to set a June record for the U.S. (Sandra and TI Richard Sanders)

1944 - Four tornadoes killed 153 persons and caused five million dollars damage in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Maryland. The tornadoes formed during the evening and moved southeast along parallel paths flattening everything in their way. The town of Shinnston WV was leveled, and was left with the majority of the causalities. Until that time it was believed that damaging tornadoes did not travel across mountainous terrain. (David Ludlum)

1944: The deadliest and strongest tornado in the state of West Virginia occurred on this day. The Shinnston Tornado that ravaged a path of destruction from Shinnston to Cheat Mountain, then on to Maryland and ending in Pennsylvania in the Allegheny Mountains, is the only twister to produce F4 damage in West Virginia. This tornado killed 103 people. Click HERE for more information from the History Channel.

 

1954: The temperature climbed to a high of 102 degrees setting a record for the date for Denver, CO. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

 

1957 - A few miles west of Fort Stockton TX, softball size hail injured 21 persons unable to find shelter, mostly farm laborers. Some livestock were killed. (The Weather Channel)

 

1962: Lightning struck and injured a man near Buffalo, southwest of Denver, CO while he was riding in the back of a pick-up truck. He suffered multiple bruises...cuts...and shock. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

1975: Hail up to 3/4 inch in diameter fell at Stapleton International Airport and over other parts of metro Denver, CO. Four funnel clouds were sighted: 10 miles northeast of Denver and south of Boulder and southeast of Boulder and south of Aurora. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

1981: A thunderstorm produced wind gusts to 60 mph in Lttleton, CO. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

1982: Two separate bolts of lightning injured three men in southwest Denver, CO and two buildings were also damaged. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

1987 - A massive hailstorm hit eastern Colorado causing an estimated 60 to 70 million dollars damage. At La Junta, CO, hail as large as softballs caused 37 million dollars damage. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary)

1988 - Thirty-four cities reported record high temperatures for the date. The reading of 90 degrees at Bluefield, WV, equalled their record for the month of June. The record high of 104 degrees at Billings, MT, was their thirteenth of the month. (The National Weather Summary)

1989 - Six cities in the High Plains Region reported record low temperatures for the date, including Sheridan, WY, with a reading of 38 degrees. Showers and thunderstorms in the eastern U.S. deluged New Castle County, DE, with 2.5 inches of rain in one hour. (The National Weather Summary)

 

1993: Non-convective high winds developed along the front range foothills near Denver, CO. Wind gusts to 70 mph were common near the foothills with numerous tree limbs broken by the winds. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

1999: Hail as large as 1 inch in diameter was measured in the city of Denver, CO with 3/4 inch hail in Littleton, CO. (Ref. Denver, CO Weather History)

 

2011: Damage shots from the Downers Grove EF-1 tornado Tuesday evening June 23, 2011 11:19 PM | An EF-1 tornado that went through the Downers Grove, Illinois during the evening west of the Chicago area. Greg states that the tornado began about 1 mile from his house in Woodridge, Illinois in the worst thunderstorm Chicago has had since August 2008. A weak EF1 tornado with 90-100mph winds was confirmed over Downers Grove. The tornado tracked literally right over Guy’s house where we have our poker nights every so often. Luckily his house was not damaged, unlike some of his neighbors.

2016: June 22-24. Part of a severe weather outbreak that produced over two dozen tornadoes from Illinois to West Virginia, up to 10 inches of rain fell in just 12-24 hours on June 23, setting off West Virginia's third deadliest flood. Twenty-three people lost their lives.

Picked up another 1.35" overnight from downpours.  It appears to have been very localized and I got lucky this time.

[psv88]

0.67" total so far. Close to what was projected

[NEG NAO]

more liquid steaming towards the area from PA - but how much of it will survive the trip ? Seems the conveyor belt of moisture is drying up somewhat as it moves into central NJ....

[bluewave]

Good to finally see the first daily rainfall over 1.20 in NYC since 4-25.

Got lucky here overnight as well.  Drenched!  Event total 2.71".  My area was one of the places that received some of the heaviest amounts.  The heaviest amounts were very localized.

Yeah I got 1.05" from all those heavy downpours. The downpours were very brief but we got so many rounds that it really added up. The round of steady rain for today is about to start, but as you said it looks pretty light.

That's wild.  Look how close the 3.35" amount is to the 1.36 and the 0.98", geographically speaking.  Can't be more than a mile or two.  West Central Morris County - Jackpot.
