We had some good rains with some wind a few times but the worst of it went well south of us or cranked up over certain parts of Vermont.
Stay Safe.
Ironically that first front went by with no rain and no wind here. Looks like second frot in a couple of hours.
After supper I took the dog for a walk, no winds when we started but the wind gust picked up pretty good when we were coming back, the trees were cracking.

Wow, that is only about an hour west of us. All the best to you.
We didn't get the heavy rains like that here in New York in our area. I did see some firewood rounds in that picture at the end of the driveway.

Was under a tornado warning yesterday evening. The cell that produced rotation (radar indicated and confirmed visually) went thru 2 towns that abut mine, just a bit south of me. Had the kitties all ready to wheel into the hallway if needed. Fortunately they like the cat pen, often snoozing in there or getting new toys to play with, so they settled down to nap shortly after I locked them up.

Found footage of the rotation that was observed while it was west of me. No, it isn't much, but we don't get this stuff often.
Our dog has a crate it will go in if there's thunderstorms or bad weather coming in, she has about three spots she'll go to.
Nice video.
Today Accu is forecasting this for our area on Wednesday June 26.
Cloudy; breezy in the morning, then a couple of showers and a heavy thunderstorm in the afternoon; thunderstorms can bring hail and damaging winds
We were supposed to get some rain yesterday afternoon and last night. Nothing however here. It's been hot and windy the last few days, so the garden is drying out a lot. The grass is already yellow in places. (I don't water the lawn.)
But today it's bright blue sky here, 75 F now (82 forecast high), and a low humidity. Like late TN fall weather. Very nice today. Breezy though.
Tomorrow back to near 90 and humid.

Yesterday we had a Tornado Watch, no power blips, today it's been raining hard along with getting more steady winds since we had coffee, so far we've had two power blips but no loss of it. There are 270 without power just east of us by about four miles.
Glad that our weather is more benign, though too dry for this time of year. Our lawn is already starting to brown out. Meanwhile, Minnesota is dealing with way too much rain.

Watch: Home collapses into water as flood water erode around dam
A house that was teetering on the edge of an eroding riverbank near a Minnesota dam has collapsed into the river.

Yes, they received a crazy amount of rain. It has been a wet May and June so far in this area. We'll see what the rest of the summer brings for weather.Glad that our weather is more benign, though too dry for this time of year. Our lawn is already starting to brown out.

The lawn here is yellow too. Good for not having to mow 
Most of the storms the last week or so went over the Sound, or missed us otherwise.
Much sun, much wind, so drying out fast.
Last night I got an inch of rain tho.

We haven't seen an inch of rain since late winter. Got .8" in early June, but that's about it for the month. July and August are often rain free. Not great for the trees or wildfire risk.
This is well south of us but this is what we've been dealing with the last two months, heavy rains with possible high wind gust. I hope you get some rain out there.

Our local TV station out of Watertown NY has our area getting 2.5 to 4 inches of rain Wednesday & Thursday. I see that AccuWeather has us getting 1 to 2 inches the same days, I'm sure that will change before Wednesday.
Anyone else in for heavy rains?

.5 - .75 here in windsor ontario, I'm just happy I'm not working those days. While at home, bring on the rain

I’m watering my hydrangeas. They keep wilting. I’m not sure why they didn’t build a root base. Maybe they haven’t been in the ground long enough.
Ughh... Dew point > 65 is usually where I draw the line and run the AC. It's not even that hot now, just sticky and gross.

In my experience, hydrangeas take a lot of water compared to most other shrubs. If it has been dry, they will need water.
