Thunderstorm hits eastern Orange County Newburgh
A fierce thunderstorm drenched eastern Orange County on Thursday, dropping nearly an inch of rain in three hours and flooding basements in Newburgh West End. South Street and Pierce Road neighborhood suffered the worst, with Fred J. Laughlin reporting $800 in damaged furniture and a flooded basement. The event cut electricity to Laughlin’s home and others nearby, who blamed a new New York Telephone Co building on Pierce Road for directing rain onto multiple properties and called for city and company action.
