The main areas impacted from these storms stretched from the Mohawk Valley eastward to the Capital District. Another severe thunderstorm impacted portions of Ulster County. Damaging winds downing trees and power lines were the primary impact, though some large hail was also observed. In addition, locally heavy rainfall from these thunderstorms produced incidents of flash flooding and road closures near Voorheesville and the City of Albany in Albany County.
