2005 had 5 hurricanes, 3 of them major by this point

I'd take a repeat of 86-87 in a heartbeat

I'm worried more about repeating the 80s or the 96-2000 period

We have confirmed that an EF0 tornado touched down yesterday morning, August 19, just before 10AM in the Lincroft section of Middletown Township, NJ. See the Public Information Statement for more. https://nwschat.weather.gov/p.php?pid=202008201508-KPHI-NOUS41-PNSPHI #NJwx ...NWS DAMAGE SURVEY FOR 08/19/20 TORNADO EVENT... .LINCROFT TORNADO...

A TORNADO TOUCHED DOWN ON A BASEBALL FIELD ON THE CAMPUS OF BROOKDALE COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN THE LINCROFT SECTION OF MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP IN MONMOUTH COUNTY, NEW JERSEY. IT TOSSED A SET OF METAL BLEACHERS ADJACENT TO THE FIELD, THEN CROSSED OVER PHALANX ROAD INTO A RESIDENTIAL AREA, WITH NUMEROUS TREES SUSTAINING DAMAGE ON AND AROUND HICKORY LANE. TREE DAMAGE MAINLY CONSISTED OF BROKEN LIMBS AND THE SNAPPING OF SOME TREES NEAR THEIR TOPS. AT LEAST ONE TREE WAS ALSO UPROOTED IN THIS AREA. THE TORNADO CONTINUED A LITTLE SOUTH OF DUE EAST AND PASSED NEAR THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE SWIMMING RIVER RESERVOIR, CAUSING ADDITIONAL TREE DAMAGE. THE TORNADO THEN ENTERED ANOTHER RESIDENTIAL AREA NEAR SWIMMING RIVER ROAD AND NORMANDY ROAD, PRODUCING A CONTINUED PATH OF DAMAGED TREES. THE TORNADO LIFTED AS IT ENTERED THE RIVERDALE WEST PARK, WHERE TREE DAMAGE WAS NO LONGER OBSERVED. THE TORNADO DID NOT APPEAR TO CAUSE ANY DIRECT STRUCTURAL DAMAGE, THOUGH A COUPLE OF HOMES SUSTAINED DAMAGE FROM FALLING TREE DEBRIS. THE DEGREE OF DAMAGE IS CONSISTENT WITH AN EF0 TORNADO WITH ESTIMATED MAXIMUM WINDS OF 80 MPH AND A CONTINUOUS, RELATIVELY NARROW PATH OF AROUND 70 YARDS IN WIDTH. THANKFULLY, NO INJURIES OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THIS TORNADO. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE MONMOUTH COUNTY OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, NEW JERSEY STATE POLICE, AND LOCAL OFFICIALS WITH MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP FOR THEIR ASSISTANCE IN THIS SURVEY. THESE CONCLUSIONS ARE PRELIMINARY AND ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE SHOULD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION COME TO OUR ATTENTION.

I'm seeing lots of tree damage but no video or pics of the tornado/funnel itself

But who would've thought we could reach the mid 90s in early October last year?

Sure why not

I think originally it was sunny, then they added in a 20% chance of showers. Wasn't expecting such widespread activity

Enjoy the comfortable weather now. Euro torches us next week

Tornado warning for Warren County

There will be more hot days

Nam is still 1-2". 2+ for LI and jersey shore

At least its not snow

Up to 83..another overperforming day?

I'm fine with that but I know some people need the rain

Very heavy rain and some thunder

Yeah I edited my post, looks like something fired around woodbridge/carteret

So far nothing N&W of I95. Wonder if that will remain the case looks like something just popped up over the turnpike in Middlesex

Upton has low 80s and dry this weekend

looks like no heatwave at ewr. topped out at 88 so far and down to 84 now

TWC is going to start naming them aren't they? Derecho Danyel is heading towards Chicago...187 million people in the path!

looks just like last week. the last 45 seconds are pretty wild
