Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceTrained Spotter
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeWeak flow at all levels was present for Independence Day with weak upper level ridging across the mid-Atlantic and a weak trough across Ohio. Winds up to 700 mb were mainly less than 10 knots. A weak warm front meandered north and increased dewpoints and surface-based instability across western New York in the afternoon hours. Precipitable water values increased to nearly 2 inches on the warm side of the boundary. Storms developed along subtle boundaries in the mid-afternoon, but initially maintained enough movement to limit rainfall amounts. Then cells started to briefly back-build or organize into larger clusters late in the afternoon across southern Erie and Cattaraugus counties. Using spotter reports, it was realized that radar precipitation algorithms were underdone, and reports of 2 to 3 inches of rain were common in the flooding areas.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA five hour rainfall total of 3.41 inches was reported.
