On the afternoon of June 25th, a weak mid-level disturbance moved across a marginally unstable air mass, with temperatures in the 80s and dew points in the 60s, across northern New York. This resulted in scattered thunderstorms, including an isolated and brief severe thunderstorm that produced up to quarter size hail and estimated wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph that toppled a few wooden benches at Schroon Lake golf course.
