  1. Being outside at the time it felt like most of that drop was in 60 secs
  2. Most sudden and dramatic temp drop I may have ever experienced. On my bike felt like 80 to 50 in an instant. A warm wind became a strong cold one and it was a wrap. I could see the shock on people's faces.
  3. Yeah I agree they all have their place. For me, in the Bx I find I tend to match up with LGA better, espically when E to NE winds are a big factor. It better captures any Sound influence which will effect some eastern areas of the boro as well. It's also significantly closer to me than CPK (as the crow flies), it's easier to get in the same snow bands etc. LGA obs on avg are actually more similar year round, especially in Spring with back door cold fronts.
  4. Been snow and sleet the whole time, looks around 3". Now changing to more of a freezing rain/sleet mix atm. 30F
  5. If there is data of interest to you, better download it while you can, especially anything climate change related. NOAA pages are dissappeaing right now.
  6. Yeah feels like forever since I had to use a shovel. Snow actually stuck on pavement too which makes it feel like a real snowfall. A lot of the paltry snow totals of the last 2 years were grassy surfaces acclumation only. It matter for statistics but in urban areas, outside of a walk in a park, it's effectively 0"
  7. Was a burst of snow/graupel. Patchy coating on some rooftops and a few trees, now changed to mostly rain and washing away. 37
  8. Good morning..apparently the forecast has changed. Dry ground heats up. Well it was nice while it lasted
  9. Here comes a new plume of smoke headed south from a fire in Inwood Hill Pk
  10. A big increase in haze and smoke smell across the Bronx and Southern Westchester within the last hr or so. I dunno if there is a new fire somewhere?
  11. Some of that may be from the Palasades fire in NJ. The wind was due west earlier sending the smell straight across the Hudson into Riverdale, Bx and beyond. Wind went more NW later and the smell went SW towards Central Park, LIC etc.
  12. Haze and smoke smell spreading into Upper Manhattan and the Bronx from Palasades fire in NJ.
  13. I havent seen any, but Central Park is reporting light rain. I wonder if it will be measurable? We've come this far might as well get the 0 rain for Oct in the record books.
  14. Temp down to 63. I knew it'd be limited to near 70 or so, but lows 60s is surprising. Don't know how much of a factor a sensor sitting above a flood yday, now a muddy mess affects it.
  15. I'd imagine it's close but I also get not wanting to use that extreme warning except for the most catastrophic events. NYC micronets show about 4 -5" in the last couple hrs in the Bx, with rain still falling. Sharp cut off too, rest of the boroughs just quarter to half inch of rain. My backyard measured 4.5" with heavy rain still falling. There was street flooding deep enough for city buses to take on water.
  16. 90/ 71 overachieving today. 5 out of 6 days in the 90s to start Aug.
  17. 92/75 after a low of 80 this am. Felt like a weak sea breeze on a NE wind is trying to come in but doesn't last so far.
  18. 93 with rain..looks to be over as fast as it popped up.
  19. Got to 91 today. Sneaky 90 degree day to end the month. Don't believe Central Park did, but LGA could put together a little heat wave now.
  20. Another late heat surge bumped the high to 98 around 7:15pm.
