Heavy rain led to widespread flooding of small streams and creeks across the county, which began during the morning hours of Monday, April 16th, and persisted into late Monday evening on the 16th.|Widespread flooding led to numerous road closures, including Miller Road off Route 9W in Coeymans, Route 32 in New Scotland between Lagrange Lane and Winne Lane, and Creble Road between Elm Avenue and South Albany Road in Bethlehem Center. In addition, evacuations occurred along Coeymans Creek.|Furthermore, a fatality and injury occurred as a brother and sister, ages 14 and 15, respectively, canoed into the rain swollen Basic Creek in Westerlo when the canoe tipped over around 17:00 EST. The female drowned, being swept away by strong currents within the creek. She was pronounced dead at Albany Medical Center at 21:02 EST on the 16th. The male was able to reach the shore.
A cold front crossing through eastern New York sparked a line of thunderstorms late on the afternoon of June 29. A thunderstorm cell became locally severe in the town of Coeymans in southeast Albany County . Thunderstorm wind gusts produced damage in a trailer park on Winnie Avenue. Specifically, power lines were knocked down, several trailer homes were damaged and small trees destroyed. In addition, several persons observed a funnel cloud with the storm.
Water was reported over Route 143 in numerous places in Ravena and Coeymans. Also, Route 9W was closed at Miller Road due water over the roadway. In addition, other roadways were reported extremely dangerous due to Coeymans Creek, Hannacroix Creek and their tributaries running at full capacity.
