Strong Nor'Easter/Hybrid Storm Late September 2026
the_other_guy replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
I just want to clarify some narratives being played in the forum. If you were inland, like I am in Westchester, this was pretty much nothing but an annoying drizzly sometimes rainy weekend. An under-performer based on what was hyped by an always hysterical populous. As for beaches, and Eastern Long Island, this was NOT a standard nor easter. The beaches on the north shore have devastation that I have only seen one time since 1988…Sandy. A tale of two storms…with the worst aspect being prolonged, days long erosion with strong NE winds -

Beach annihilated in Wading River. Nor Easters were/are always much worse than hurricanes in terms of beach erosion…and that played out over last few days -

Like I said, we cancelled none in NYC yesterday. And 31, over the course of the day is as good as it will get with marginal weather. The FAA is planning delays at JFK and EWR for wind later this afternoon. LGA, at a more normal schedule today, it already running delays with single runways ops. Todays schedule needs 2 runways As long as the worst weather stays to the overnight hours, the weather forecasted for the day will not lead to mass cancellations. It just isnt bad enough or slowing things down enough -

We didnt cancel 1 flight. Until 4pm, there were no ATC delays at all. Simply wasnt weather to call for it. Saturday schedule is also much reduced at LGA. They can operate on one runway easily. JFK is going 7 days a week -

Not here at all. Just started raining again after a solid 5 hour break I went for a 6 mile run on the trail…which says it all -

Nothing burger in Westchester thus far. Dry slotted and winds are tame. Hopefully it stays thru the daylight hours -

Sure they will. They did it to me in Sandy. Left the day before landfall. Brooklyn cruise terminal destroyed. They left us tied to a dock in Boston for days. I rented a car at Logan and drove home They refused to let us cancel the cruise beforehand and then created such a disaster onboard they refunded the cruise. -

Why? I was flying this morning and knew we wouldnt get a drop of rain til after midnight. -
Its nice out. The bottom really fell out of summer quick this year. Quicker than what we are used to in the new climate regime

Starting to get hints if color in Westchester and north. Break out the pumpkin spice
