Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA hot and humid air mass was in place on Wednesday, July 23rd, allowing the atmosphere to become quite unstable. As a cold front approached from the west, clusters of thunderstorms developed during the afternoon and early evening hours. Some of these thunderstorms became severe, producing damaging winds and large hail. Thunderstorms moved east and weakened by the late evening hours, as the cold front crossed the region.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA large 100 foot pine tree was struck by lightning at the Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs. Pieces of the downed tree destroyed about a dozen picnic tables and the Dogs and Brews tent. Some of the debris was scattered nearly 100 feet away from the tree that was struck. The lightning strike occurred about 20 minutes after the last race of the day had ended and most people had already left the area. As a result, no injuries were reported.
