Episode Narrative As high pressure remained anchored off the mid-Atlantic Coast, a warm, humid southerly flow prevailed across the region. An approaching cold front triggered afternoon and evening thunderstorms. The thunderstorm winds downed trees and power lines throughout numerous towns throughout the area. Across the western sections, these included Concord, Hamburg, Gerry, Westfield, Niagara Falls, LeRoy, Varysburg, Bennington, Otto, Orchard Park, Henrietta, Carlton, York, Bemus Point, Byron, Castile, Mount Morris, and Canaseraga. Further east, damage was reported in Manchester, Newark, Cato, Wolcott, Oswego, Carthage and Denmark. Utility companies reported numerous power outages throughout the area with upwards of 20,000 customers without power. In Rige, a house fire was blamed on a lightning strike from the storms.
