    I don't think ive ever seen a more active lightning storm. This is insane
  • @saibhoconnor8059
    A storm is happening where I am, it’s almost midnight, the lightning is lighting up my whole room and the thunder is incredibly loud

    Scott, hi from your Utah fan! Thanks for showing me some real NY storms. We were in Saratoga Springs from 8/22 through 8/27 and had bupkes! No thunderstorms. When we came home we had a massive Salt Lake City storm though....4 lightning strikes with anemic thunder and an amazing 45 seconds of rain. I'm glad I can see storms through your lens.

    It's a first for me, watching and hearing a thunderstorm as sunflowers waft about under a lovely barrage of rain!☺️ You made my night!👏😁
  • The rain washed away the fear of lightning and thunder. The thunderclaps were very loud and heavy. 0:32 thunderclap was a sudden and unexpected Massive sound.

    This storm reminded me of them storms in the late 90s and early 2000s with lots of lighting and loud thunder. Great video man
  • Never ever been in or seen a thunderstorm so charged with electricity like that one awesome video!!!
  • I was living in Flushing in June 1975 when a wild storm came through . Later that day as it moved south over Queens the storms passed over the approach for JFK and a windshear hit an Eastern Air Lines 727 about to land and it hit the approach lights and broke apart killing everyone on board.

    Loooove storms like this. Bring the noise, bring the ruckus.

    this is the kind of stuff we miss out on in coastal S. CA. maybe once every 10 to 20 years we will get ONE thunderstorm like this if not a bit weaker. This storm looked remarkably green for a video. So I'm surprised there wasn't any hail.

    Weather has been nuts here in the south with this stalled low pressure. So cool. But wow hun the sounds are awesome and the lightning!! Love your accent!!
  • @Stormsfury777

  • welcome to NYC. NYC summer is well-known for severe thunderstorm ⛈️... The loud thunderclaps are scary and frustrating... It's so crazy 😧🤣
  • @YeOldeWilly
    Very impressive lightning! I was hoping this storm would reach my area as well but it took a turn NE, and BTW a severe storm rolled over your area just yesterday 8/12/16 with most likely a ton of lightning!
