  1. Coming down nicely in midtown, some bigger flakes mixing in. Nice scenes
  2. I think there's a cap to how far north this can get considering the strength of the confluence. It's more than likely a 2-3 max sort of deal around NYC and 1-2 seems more likely, this is probably a Mid Atlantic special. Either way, whatever falls will stick around for a while so it'll feel like winter at least.
  3. It's weird seeing so much of that blue stuff on a weather map, perfect timing too in deep winter as opposed to spring like in years past. Timing it up with snow is a whole other issue but having extended cold air in place is half the battle
  4. What is this white stuff I woke up to? At least 2 inches just eyeballing it here in Whitestone possibly 3, beautiful surprise. Snow on Christmas week, kinda, haven't had that in a while.
  5. Forget December, I can't see any month being like that again for a long time. Plus, old "normals" shouldn't even apply anymore, like 1991-2020. We're in a new climate now unfortunately. However, it's hard to compare any era to 2000-2020 or moreso 2000-2018. That was a remarkable era of snow and some cold winters mixed in.
  6. Lunacy but this is an era when we've had 80 in February so we might be entering "new normal" territory with occasional 80+ in November.
  7. Walking outside at 11pm on Halloween in shorts and short sleeves is not something I had on my Bingo Card. It feels nice but is also very unsettling in the same token.
  8. So much for the gloomy cloudy day. Gorgeous cloudless day here in Midtown.
  9. Yep, rode it right into the coast. Similarly scary situation unfolding now although in a mord sparsely populated area than Charleston with the core upon approach, hopefully.
  10. Hugo was what came to mind for me too. Let's hope that Atlanta doesn't get hit as hard as Charlotte did. I had family there and it took a long time to recover, there were some 90+ mph gusts.
  11. And it's a much larger storm than Michael which will have far reaching effects. Michael had large impacts over a much smaller region so Tallahassee was largely spared.
  12. Yep, or that. Mind boggling that they haven't thought of a contingency.
  13. They should have moved it to a neutral location ahead of the storm. Poor planning for such an important series.
  14. Beautiful night again last night, been a lot of those over the last few weeks. I like summer but this time of the year is the best weather IMO.
  15. That's going to be quite the fetch on the West Coast of Florida. Even though Tampa and northward will likely miss the core, the surge impacts should be quite significant. The only saving grace is the speed of the system, it won't have an opportunity to pile up as much water as Katrina did for instance due to the faster movement but a major surge event nonetheless.
  16. One of the craziest weather days in years. Heavy rain just about all morning then long lasting multiple thunderstorms this evening, even now at almost 2am with plenty of lightning flashes and thunder. I don't know much in the rain bucket but has to be in the 4-5" range. Edit: and now the rain is getting heavy again after a brief break.
  17. A lot of rain in Whitestone today, very localized heavy rain. The rain this morning killed my beach plans and now a long lasting thunderstorm.
  18. Training storms in northeast Queens. This is about 3 in a row with a slight break in between, hadn't seen training like this here in a while.
  19. Getting smoked in Bayside/Whitestone. Crazy rain, hard to drive in it even.
  20. 92 with a heat index of 105 at home in Whitestone. Ridiculous at 10:45am
  21. Lots of times we see Severe Thunderstorm Warnings and the storms aren't actually severe. This storm is certainly meeting severe status with torrential rain, constant vivid lightning and house shaking thunder.
  22. Deluge here, got home just in time before it started to downpour. And now the sun is out 5 minutes later, the briefest of downpours.
  23. Beautiful, refreshing weather after the heat of the last 5 days last 2 in particular.
  24. Swamp Ass season has officially arrived
