psv88

89/77 here. Guess your station woke up lol

88/78/100, about as humid as it gets

88/77/99. Disgusting. the area center island I think has the highest heat index generally. Close enough to the shore to get the dews, yet far enough to avoid sea breeze until later on. Probably a stretch along the NJ shore in the same boat.

Same here. It’s nasty out there. Cut the grass and I’m drenched

Nasty day today. Sweating buckets after an hour of work in the yard

May be similar to last Sunday Please no

Same. Perfect 4th wx

Newark only hit 89, yet ISP 88. Strange...another 90 here, #4

Wow. You are beating me today. 89.7 here lol. A bit of a SE breeze kicked in here, knocked us down to 89.4

89 here with no wind at all. Roasting

Well we are not celebrating Gettysburg today, so I’m not sure why most Americans should be remembering that today. Also pretty sure every American knows why they are bbqing today as well. Silly post. What Americans need to remember today is that what defines us and makes our country unique is freedom of expression and thought. We all seem to hate one another based on what the other thinks. This hate at times causes some to try to silence the voices of others, which is Unamerican and what we fought against in 1776. this is what Americans should remember. Freedom of expression is quintessential to who we are. Not Gettysburg, one of the ugliest days of American history.

supposed to be easterly flow today and its 89 here, 86 at ISP

toasty 88 now

Yea i mean you have a small 25 square mile area that was hit, at best, probably closer to 20 sq miles, the worst areas probably in a 15 sq mile radius, in the largest metro area in the country, and it takes this long? Something isnt right.

Power crews and tree crews making slow progress still. On my way out of my hood this morning:

Much of my immediate neighborhood still has no power and some roads are still blocked off. I drove to the Walt Whitman mall today and back and there was almost no damage west of exit 42 on the NSP. Saw some damage just east of the mall but mainly small branches etc. Commack is still a war zone. I’m still convinced we gusted to around 70

Haha I care less about wind

that area of East Northport got slammed as well. Interesting drive to work today, many side streets still blocked off by trees and powerlines. I think our area saw localized gusts at or close to 70. Ive been through, Sandy, Irene, other storms with winds to 60, and this was on par with the worst of em. You dont see 100 foot oak trees snap at the trunk in 50 mph winds. A small tree can be uprooted, but not 4 foot in diameter tree trunks in health trees. The siding ripped from houses, nowhere near trees, indicates winds over 60. That initial burst of winds had immense power like nothing i have ever seen before, and we get strong winds out here very often. Also, you cant take WU wind meters for shit. I have a Davis but the anenometer is 2 m off the ground and surrounded by trees and a fence.

Nws storm reports has some gusts from mesonet and wxflow over 70, a bunch over 60. But there are no official sites within path of cell. Closest was ISP gusted to 54. Some of the concentrated damage in my area indicated winds over 60. Honestly worse than anything I saw in Sandy

weather station is horrible getting wind, recorded a gust to 18 lol. Winds must have been over 60, trees that survived Sandy were crushed. That backyard video is from a tightly enclosed space surrounded by fences and houses, so getting that much wind is absurd. Based on local wind reports, my personal experience, etc i would estimate top wind gust came in around 70 mph, maybe a bit higher on some blocks. FRG recorded 51 gust and ISP 54, neither of which took a hit from the main cell. There were also gusts over 70 recorded along CT coast, and north shore LI, so around 70 seems fair. Also saw some siding ripped off of houses, which probably wouldnt happen with winds under 60

Made 2 Youtube videos from my security cameras. Action starts around 14:21:30, ramps up thereafter. Can see the trees come down in the backyward shot.

the storms actually almost dropped north to south, only a slight eastward component, especially as they strengthened right after coming ashore. i thought we would get grazed to the east but the storms almost made a right turn south

yea hail was slamming against our windows too. Half of commack is still without power, and 60% of brentwood. This is one for the books.

Across the sound in suffolk we got slammed. worst storm in decades in this area of western suffolk. good call for an active day

there he is. storm raked western suffolk north to south. remarkable.
