766 Man Posted September 3 Posted September 3 Which includes my area of the Finger Lakes region experienced over 39,000 lightning strikes. The storm covered parts of Ontario, Canada, New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. From 6:30 until after 10:00 it seemed like a non-stop light show. High straight line wind and hail also occurred. Have not been far from the house this morning to see what damage has happened. 1 Quote
augercreek Posted September 3 Posted September 3 A lot of folks in your area are suffering these storms! And we are in a sever drought! Our well is gown 6' from normal and the trees' are suffering because of it, leaves on some are turning color now. Hate to go into winter dry, the ground under buildings is shrinking and causing door issues. 1 Quote
766 Man Posted September 3 Author Posted September 3 Had some rain the past few days but still quite dry and below the normal amount received for the summer. Monday the lawn was very brown but expect that to change with the recent rain. Quote
acem Posted September 3 Posted September 3 We haven't had rain, storms or lightning in some time. Just blue skys and 100F+ temps. Quote
ChrisNY Posted September 3 Posted September 3 Scooted just to the south of us. Good lightshow over the lake though. No tornados or wind. Only .2 of rain here. 1 Quote
Shell1066 Posted September 4 Posted September 4 1.5 inches here last evening at 630. Really dumped buckets for half hour. Two miles west didn't get a drop. Go south and east and their burnt up. Here were having a good corn silage season. 1 Quote
jw10007 Posted September 4 Posted September 4 Another inch of rain and a great lightning show in North Central PA last night. We are 8 miles West of the I99/ Rt 15 corridor 1 Quote
hobbyfarm Posted September 4 Posted September 4 I believer we got the southern end of the same storms. We have been in severe drought according to usda and the local crops show it. There has finally been some significant rain the last 2 weeks including the storms last night. I think we are over 8" rain in 2 and a half weeks. Crazy lightning like you said. Quote
Shell1066 Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Last night we were on the edge of the storm. No rain but very nice light show. Up near CIHTECH they had a very nasty storm. Went thru there today and had lots of tree limbs and leaves in the road. Quote

Almost traded paint with a gigantic farm tractor tugging a bagger at mach3 taking his half out of the middle. Quote
