We had a Moon Watch scheduled at Old Westbury Gardens tonight. It was clear all day, and then at about 6 PM I noticed a line of thunderstorms over Pennsylvania approaching. I thought maybe they would move through before the start of our observing session. So I drove down to the site. Not long after I arrived, these clouds moved in. Yikes! We decided that we all needed to get out of there in a hurry. I didn't drive through any rain on the way home, but I was watching radar on my phone, an a huge storm came through to the west of us. It made a mess of the planes taking off and landing at JFK!
Every time I see a thunderstorm approaching, I advise Will that it's time to go out and trim the hedge with the electric clippers, while standing in a bucket of water!! Luckily, YOU don't take any chances!! Babs
