Where I live in the Southern Tier of New York, it has been a stormy week. But we've escaped a lot of the severe weather that the central and western part of the state has experienced in the last few days.
As of last night, we've had 18 confirmed tornadoes so far in New York State since the beginning of the year.
I took these pictures on August 27.
Thunderheads.Let's zoom in. Pinkish sky right before sunset, taken through trees. Sorry for the blur.Tuesday and Wednesday we had on and off torrential rain. We got at least four inches, and my spouse and I were caught in one of the downpours trying to get to an appointment. A bit over an hour away, the New York State Fair had to close because of flooding.
Our storms Wednesday night came after sunset, and I wasn't going to go out there at 10pm with lightning flashing and lighting up the sky.
Hoping for better weather for all in September.

...red sky at night, sailor's delight.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful skyscapes!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing thunderheads when I'm out taking pictures... as long as they are not directly overhead!
ReplyDeleteWow that's a lot of tornadoes.
ReplyDeleteLove the clouds. We've had some very interesting cloud formations here near the Gulf Coast this week. I am a confirmed sky watcher.

I guess that the tornado belt has stretched all the way to New York.
ReplyDeleteThe clouds are pretty. Too bad they're also threatening.
