  1. May not end up a bust but I can understand why ppl would think that. After 10 am ish It was a dry day with some breaks of sun today. A lul is one thing. Its not a lul anymore when it's all day...and not even some light showers or drizzle during the day. Especially compared to the hype it might seem a dud, at least at up to this point. I personally have no problem with that either. I've seen enough flooding this yr.
  2. Temps on the rise once the hazy sunshine finally broke through. 77 dew 67
  3. Yeah I always figured EWR and JFK radiate better at night. LGA isn't bordered by marshland or anything. It's highly urbanized and dense right up the the runways lol. Thousands of ppl live right across the street from LGA. It is on the East River but right across from Rikers and very industrial Hunts Point. A N to NW wind is coming off the south Bx and traffic clogged Bruckner, Major Deegan etc. LGA is a good representation of standing waiting for a bus on a city street or day to day life is like. Central Pk is what a picnic in a shady park is like, and JFK is what a day at the beach is like.
  4. I can't see NWS doing anything besides the status quo. It would take some tragedy unfortunately, like a catastrophic heat wave that was underestimated due to a pigeon hole focus on Central Park readings. Better off trying to get media to incorporate other NYC stations more prominently in their forecasts etc.
  5. Saw some minor/nuisance coastal flooding earlier at high tide along the Sound btwn Pelham bay, Bronx and New Rochelle on a howling ENE wind
  6. I wonder if that is becoming a permanent feature in our climate or is this a period of transition before snowfall start falling to match our warming temps. Like DC for example where the snowfall avgs have been plummeting, matching warming temps. It might as well be ATL there now. For now I think having more favorable storm tracks and more precip overall continue to overcome the warmth, but for how long?
  7. Warm day but a coolness still in the shade with the low humidity, an impressive 77 today. Feel good about hitting 80 tomorrow.
  8. NWS forecasts have dropped a few degrees I noticed, I suspected thats why. Not a huge difference, but some upper 80s are now mid 80s. Mid 80s days now low 80s.
  9. ^^^The caption of summer 2021..at least the weekends
  10. Yeah..still is. The sunshine is deceiving. In early afternoon the major deegan was still flooded with lines and lines of cars and trucks abandoned in the water. Also additional runoff out of Van Courtlandt Park and down from Westchester was flowing onto the highway. Bx River Pkwy looks similar still. I had to drive a little I stuck to local streets.
  11. I was about to post the same.. its all closed, including streets not usually prone to flooding. That's flash flooding..then there is river flooding to come, how that will rank historically will be interesting
  12. Flooding flooding everywhere. Unprecedented rain rates and duration. Water is overflowing off roofs. Good for the roof business sucks otherwise
  13. Rain..but the wind is really impressive. Feels like a real tropical storm out. Espcially getting wind and rain together, not one or the other. Absoulty howling outside shaking the hell out the windows.
  14. Was it supposed to be this windy today?
  15. Raining again here..basically 20 mins of sunshine and a downpour develops. Same cycle repeats all day. Actually its partly sunny with mod rain now. Very FL type day.
  16. The temperature readings gets alot of criticism but wind direction, speed and to some extent rainfall obs havent been great there either.
  17. For now portions of the Hutch, and most of the Saw Mill pkwy is closed. Bronx River pkwy is closed past 233rd st to White Plains
  18. Pouring again but with wind now. Lots of road closures, if it has parkway in its name its probably closed
