SPC HREF:

Looks similar to what euro has been showing.

83.5 (84) in Syosset & 83.2 in Muttontown.

79.5 (80) in Syosset & 78.3 in Muttontown.

5.05” in Syosset & 4.32” in Muttontown for the event. Should be final, as event looks done this way finally.

Eclipsed 5” in Syosset. 5.02” & still raining.

Sometimes they take my stations from CWOP without me having to submit it. My Muttontown station they did I see. Looks like I’ll have to submit my syosset one. Thanks for the heads up.

4.82” in Syosset & 4.14” in Muttontown.

25-30 mph then they drop off once the firehose moves past.

4.51" now, off the charts...

Amazing what could have been if the heaviest was only further W this morning. Glad you didn't have it as bad as it could have been.

My backyard is a lake & my front side yard has a moat with my neighbor. 4.31" now and pouring in Syosset.

3.56' in Syosset now & coming down hard. 3 miles W in Muttontown only 3.21"

Unfortunately, watching the radar it's moving slowly east. Sorry to hear you'll have to deal with that as well.

SW Nassau seeing 1.5"/hr rainfall accumulation. Has to be bad flooding down there now.

3.08" in Syosset & 2.90" in Muttontown

I can't get twitter links to post all of a sudden. Anyway: Flash Flood Warning continues for Brooklyn NY, Queens NY and Hempstead NY until 2:45 PM EDT

We can only hope for a repeat then.

They'll be swimming and enjoying themselves unfortunately

Yet no Flood Emergency was issued that I have seen, only warnings so far.
