Thunderstorms rolled through New York City on Wednesday, relieving the city of sweltering temperatures heat but replacing them with pounding rain, strong winds – and hail.

However we read in the Book of Mormon a promise that was given to those who repented and that turned back to God.
...
"Yea, they shall not be beaten down by the storm at the last day;
yea, neither shall they be harrowed up by the whirlwinds;
but when the storm cometh they shall be gathered together in their place,
that the storm cannot penetrate to them;
yea, neither shall they be driven with fierce winds whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them."
But behold, they are in the hands of the Lord of the harvest, and they are his;
and he will raise them up at the last day.
Blessed be the name of our God; let us sing to his praise,
yea, let us give thanks to his holy name, for he doth work righteousness forever
Alma 26: 6-8
