episode_narrativeA weak upper level disturbance spawned isolated showers and thunderstorms across eastern New York on the afternoon of June 29. One of the storms briefly pulsed up and became severe as it moved across South Argyle in Washington County, producing a microburst as well as an unusually large number of cloud to ground lightning strikes. Thunderstorm winds, estimated between 70 and 90 mph by a NWS Survey, produced three distinct clusters of damage, less than a mile from each other. The first cluster of damage occurred on Harper Road, just west of Lick Spring Road., where numerous tree limbs broke off and a one story house cathedral roof was partially ripped off and buckled. In a second area, a 15-inch diameter pine tree was uprooted, and the tops off many smaller ones were snapped off. One final area on McNeil Road saw more tree damage, including a 200-year old maple tree. During the storm, an Argyle man was reported to have been struck by lightning while working in his garage. He was transported to the Glens Falls Hospital and later released. The storms caused spotty power outages as well.
