| May 2004 | Hail | Warwick | - | For the second consecutive day, the Village of Harriman in Southern Orange County was impacted by severe weather. As a cluster of heavy showers and thunderstorms moved east across Southern Orange County between 4 pm and 6:30 pm, it produced damaging wind gusts, large hail, and flash flooding in the Village of Harriman. Here are the findings of a damage assessment conducted by NY State Emergency Managers: The area of damage was bounded by Route 6/7 to the north and Interstate 87 to the east. High winds twisted off tree tops above 35 feet and shingles were ripped from houses in a triangular area bordered by North Maine Street, Grove Street, and Route 17M in the Village of Harriman. Hail up to the size of a quarter was reported by many trained spotters. A 1 hour rainfall rate of 2 inches per hour caused flash flooding of streets. Based on this damage and radar data interpretation, the National Weather Service confirms that a wet microburst occurred in the Village of Harriman. |

Local newspapers reported that several trees were downed at Warwick High School and on the St. Stephen's Church and school grounds. Damage included a demolished roof at a horse barn at the Whispering Winds Farm and a downed silo at the Bollenback Farm. In Goshen, downed trees, branches and wires closed several streets. A spotter reported large tree limbs and power lines down in Walden. |
| August 1994 | Thunderstorm Wind | Warwick | - | A relatively moist and unstable airmass gave rise to several thunderstorms late in the day. One storm produced winds that downed a few trees which in turn downed some power lines. |
