  1. 0.85” of rain in lindenhurst winds now gusting up to around 35 mph. On a side note, My dad just called and said as he was driving to work he had to turn around. Cars flooded to their roofs on the cross island while he was on the expressway. Had call in to work because it was too dangerous. He said people were wading in chest deep water using their phone lights to see…. On the expressway itself everyone was pulled over with their hazards on due to how heavy the rain was, and some of the smaller cars started to stall. He took a video of the flooding on the cross island, from the ramp to get onto it from the expressway. I’ll try to post it here if i get a chance.
  2. I don’t know about everyone, probably only nassau, much of suffolk has an inch or less still and the bulk of the remaining rain will miss besides maybe nw suffolk
  3. 0.69” of rain in Lindenhurst, strongest gusts have been in the upper 20s or so. Only a little less rain here in albany, at 0.51”
  4. That outbreak produced an f4 in connecticut I believe. I think it also produced the strongest ever tornado on record on long island which was an f2 edit: actually that was July 1989 I was thinking a totally different outbreak that same year
  5. Grand isle only got brushed by the inner eyewall too which is kinda crazy
  6. It looks like I might see more rain here in albany than back at home on long island. I haven’t really been tracking ida since landfall so i honestly didn’t realize the heavy rain had trended north
  7. Isaias, Imelda and Isaac are some of the costliest storms not to be retired
  8. According to a study i found, 386 deaths were directly attributed to Katrina’s storm surge, in Louisiana specifically. So it would probably be around 400-500 if you include other states… With Maria 1/10th was attributed directly to the hurricane so around 300. I believe that still makes them the worst modern US hurricanes though even without indirect deaths. edit: Agnes is the only other US storm i found with over 100 direct deaths since 1970
  9. Yeah we’re starting to get into names no one ever new existed territory with I storms
  10. This one could probably cause some issues for swimmers on the east coast. Hopefully people heed the rip current warnings
  11. New advisory has storm down to Cat 1: 95 mph, 960 mb, headed nnw at 9 mph. I don't think I've ever seen a storm initialized with that intensity before, unless it was a glitch....
  12. He's probably going by by normalized damage, which puts Katrina, Andrew, and Maria at 1, 2 , 3
