Our Chief Engineer from WGNA Matt SHea just sent us the following...
We are expecting some nasty weather, including bad thunderstorms around the Albany area later today, July 26, 2012. Over the past few years, people in the Albany area have had their share of very strong thunderstorms. In some cases causing a lot of damage...
1077 'GNA and News 10 ABC Meteorologist Steve Caporizzo want you to know that there is a severe thunderstorm watch for the listening area now through 9pm. A lot of counties are in the watch area.
I enjoy a good thunderstorm. I like to watch the lightning as everything gets really bright for that one quick second. That is, as long as it didn't do any damage or injure someone. Of course watching from a safe place.
