A storm system moving in from the south. A very prominent shelf-cloud was visible, quickly engulfing the city of Rome, New York. Not very much rain, from the weather system. Gusty wind, and cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning, with little rainfall, which stayed to the east and north of the city.
Odd how many storms, seem to go around, or over the city, with little precipitation or damage.
Just remember, when you can hear the thunder, you are already in danger from lightning. Lightning strikes, in fact, can strike you from fifteen miles. And that is before you can hear the thunder.
More storms are forecasted for the next couple days. So...Be prepared.
