    What day is that? And can we quote you for credit when we get there?

    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

    Nice Gap to enjoy Saturday a bit if you are away from the beach
  9. the_other_guy
    Really? How warm are we talking?
  10. the_other_guy
    LGA…

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

    Nino: Cool summer No Tropical Activity Mild snowless winter You have 2 of 3 thus far for all those people that will call for snowy and cold in late Oct

    What are the chances or one tornado forming, crossing over a speck of land, and destroying that beach club. talk about unlucky for them
  18. the_other_guy
    Looks like an El Nino tropical map to me

    What beautiful weather behind the storm! I said it earlier, and I’ll say it again definitely had echoes of a coastal storm, including the rapid clearing and beautiful conditions behind it
  20. the_other_guy
    Yeh keeps backfilling
  21. the_other_guy
    10.8” of snow for CPK with +5 all winter…yea for suck!
  22. the_other_guy
    Radar looks like a benchmark snowstorm.

    Been saying this for years. There is an agenda here. Easy to see why Central Park would be cooler than the concrete hell holes that LGA and EWR are. Now the concrete hellhole airports may be more representative of NYC climate as a whole, but that is another discussion. That is vastly different then the pushed conspiracy theory that CPK temp readings are wrong

    Ive been flying all afternoon and evening and that narrow line of storms that stretched across city back to Penn was absolutely fascinating. It existed in a long narrow band, and as of 945pm is still off the coast with tops to 50,000 feet. Needless to say that is unusual. That combined with the smoke that rapidly moved in around 4 pm has made it an interesting flying day.

    Amazing with Sandy, we couldnt get gas in city. Drove up 95 and crossed into CT. First exit, gas for everyone. That really opened my eyes to the disfunction and regulation of the NY government…even in a crisis.
