07/17/2019 - Severe Thunderstorm Warning - New York City, NY.

Double whammy for the bad weather today.
What started off with a heat advisory with heat index up to near 100 degrees concluded with a blast of a severe thunderstorm that put up a decent light show and strong winds.
Tonight's storm caused some minor floods, downed some limbs and toppled powerlines just two blocks away from my residence (Loudlabs News NYC):
• Power Lines Down | Queens
The nasty week is not expected to end, as the hot temperature is forecasted to soar to the upper 90's with heat index exceeding 100's for the weekend to come.

Without thunderstorm in this world , this world would be as boring as the taste of a swanky beer . The thunderstorm invigorates the human spirit . From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵

Love the weather, great storm and a good KZbin channel, I just came across today, watching from the uk, shame we don't have much servere weather.

New York is a pretty darn rainy state, I live in New Hampshire and I get pretty much the same!

[@brianpatterson1827]

That was one mean cluster of thunderstorms. One of the most legit in a long time in NYC.

Peter son?

[@synthetickid7522]

Man, the Thunder is Mega Loud over there.

[@TravelsChases]

Great storm. Thanks for sharing

[@NikoStorm]

Wow! Awesome lightning storm!!

[@chrissy9692]

At 0:06 what website or app did you use to track that storm?

[@brianpatterson1827]

I'm hoping for another just like it tomorrow. I think the SPC should have us under Slight Risk in NYC. Similar chance as it was when Remnants of Barry were coming in that day - when looking at all the different atmospheric factors. Potentially similar CAPE values.

When you were driving I couldn't here the tunder

Thank you for showing us the sky and not being one of those asshole KZbinrs who put “severe thunderstorms” in their key words, but are only shooting video of their weather radios. Those guys piss me the hell off!

[@JoshRichboysquadxyz]

Wasn't the recent severe storm there had the remnants of TD Barry involved as well?

[@drossperturbado8932]

Josh Rich yes

[@SpottingWithTom]

It sure is!

Thanks

[@B3burner]

I feel sorry for your neighbors across the street, living with window-mount air conditioners. 2019 in a 1st World country... central heat & air should be a given! 🤦‍♂️

[@SpottingWithTom]

Actually it's pretty common for the 1950's era buildings in this neighborhood to lack a central HVAC. It's more common in the modern houses and newer apartments.
