May 2022 Observations and Discussions

Many HV schools have called an early dismissal for this afternoons severe storms, never heard this before for such.

Just had a small storm roll through here in edison

Rained here about 11:15 am. Not heavy. However, radar looks intense. Gettin dark again. Daughter’s school canceled everything after school. No early dismissal but I think it will be proven out that would have been a good idea. Winds are picking up at 15 moh. 77 at 1:15 pm. Last night we got half an inch. I expect we will get a couple of inches from this

80% MCD Watch by SPC - thats pretty high

could be wrong as I am very much an amateur but it looks like most of the activity(not all) will be in the western part of the state

I think so but I am rank. The sky is way dark here in northern Orange county

Sun is out, temps in the mid 70's here DP 64. Not expecting anything severe but hoping for a good storm. Marine layer, especially this time of year, is the KOD for LI lol.

Rocking here. Power out

where is that

Northern Orange county. Power is back on. The storms have passed. Dark clouds really flew by in the sky

Not too bad here Damian, a garden variety T Storm, some wind some rain , not SPC quality.

An inch out of it, doc. The new rain gauge…

Nice for the lawn and grounds Damian!

A whole lotta oogotz out here on the Island with yesterday's weather.  Like Alex said Marine layer is the KOD for us this time of year.  Hope all are well.

Yupp, had a quick downpour with a rumble of thunder. What a beautiful morning in it's wake though....

Didn't really have anything out of the ordinary by me. Some brief heavy rain and a few rumbles of thunder. Very little wind. Nothing more than a garden variety spring storm.

Now I just know there will be some night this summer where there is just a "chance of an isolated storm" and it will be wicked and knock my power out. That's the way these summer storms go.

We did not have anything other than a quick downpour at around 7:30pm...threatening skies all day..but my new neighbors 1st time home owners were nervous all day long.

Beautiful day out today!! lets hope the weather in Europe is good for the next 2 weeks..leaving Thursday...first trip abroad since covid and prepping the paperwork and tests needed is not for the faint of heart..3 hours and 5 ridiculous apps on our phones later and we are ready. Please pray we test neg for covid on Sat in Venice!!

I like the way todays system is moving along quickly. So far .44 inches of grass and garden loving rain! Now get some sun and that will complete the day!

Another inch. Rained from just after midnight to say 5 am. 51 at 7 am. It was nice waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of rain

at 7:18 AM Im up to .56 inches now


Ended up with .73 inches of rain..Now lets get warm sunny weather.

Looks like things might get interesting later today with the MCS possibly coming through

Hello folks, just passing thru. Apparently we will be jumping right into July this weekend. As the song goes




I prefer to ease into it as opposed to the sudden "in your face" option given the choice

Very surprised by how quiet it is in here considering the tornado watch and severe thunderstorm warnings. I guess the bust the other day has folks unimpressed with this system
