    This just has the feel of what could have been.

    It’s snowing. Having fun

    Great deep winter day. Took the wife and 2 year old out looking for seals here along the south shore. We don’t see a single damn one. But my 2 year old thinks seagulls are hilarious for some reason. And we so tons of seagulls. So today was a win.

    A pack refresh on the south shore prior to Christmas. I’m only half kidding when I say it’s one of the more impressive events in the last 2 decades.

    Agree with winterwx. It’s getting late now, but you can still get it done if you just have a few patches and time it right with the temps. The key is to get it germinated. I would cover the patches with burlap. It keeps the warmth and moisture in during the day.

    I was on the beach this evening and the Long period swell is already hitting the beaches. It’s not terribly big (yet) but it is powerful. You can feel the difference even in ankle deep water between an ‘everyday’ wave and something generated by a hurricane.

    So I guess Canada will be our source region for heat now?

    0.0 south east Nassau.

    Everything I’ve seen from gilgo east is almost as bad as Sandy. Some of the drone footage I saw out of montuak might even be worse. I also just saw in Newsday that Suffolk county has asked the governor to declare a state of emergency there to open the door to federal funds. It’s tough because people see a named storm and the disaster declarations come immediately. They see “massive southeast fetch” and things are slow to happen.

    I have a wxflow so it has the haptic rain sensor, but it recorded .37” in 5 minutes.

    I think what he is saying is his expectations for his own PWS. Being in a residential area you don’t get the same observations as you do at the airport or other official locations where the stations are unobstructed.

    Wow I didn’t realize the Islip buoy broke free. I can’t remember the last time that happened. Sucks we won’t have wave measurements from the location for this storm (and Friday as well)

    We might have a new inlet or two on the island by the time this winter is over.

    Thanks. Mark me down for .81” of rain and a trace of snow lol
  15. tdp146
    What’s the rule for a “trace” of snow. I thought I remember someone saying even if it’s not accumulating whatsoever, if there are snowflakes falling, it’s considered a “trace”

    For context, 35.2 here (south shore Long Island) with .31” (rain). Some wet flakes at times.

    Random, but just saw a meteor (borderline fireball) fall from the sky to the north. Considering I saw it through cloud-cover, it was pretty cool.
  18. tdp146
    WOW. 26 feet at the Islip Buoy. That is borderline unheard of.

    Like my stupid basement
  20. tdp146
    This would be more fun as snow instead of shop- vacing my basement all night. I get just a trickle.. but it’s relentless.
  21. tdp146
    4.16” for the day and about 10 gallons shop-vac’d out of the basement so far.

    Islip buoy water temp went above 80 for a few hours yesterday. https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=44025

    We have a 3 month old and I have the house closed up. Running a HEPA filter in the bedroom.

    Ground smoke in Buffalo is really thick. Uncomfortable to breathe and I am not typically someone who has those issues. This is bad for anyone.
  25. tdp146
    Is there smoke in the air again today?
