| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A very warm and humid air mass was in place over eastern New York on Friday, August 12th. Daytime temperatures were well into the 90s and dewpoints reached into the low to mid 70s. As a result, heat index values reached 100 to 105 degrees for valley areas. Some cooling centers were opened across parts of the region as a result of the excessive heat.||With the warm and humid air mass in place, scattered thunderstorms developed during the afternoon hours. Although these thunderstorms had little upper level support, a few of the storms became severe, producing damaging wind gusts to trees and power lines. In addition, one of the thunderstorms produced a cloud to ground lightning strike, which struck a group of five people under a tree in a park in Poughkeepsie. Two of the people died as a result of their injuries. |
