    Very dark with rolling thunder currently at jones beach. Wind tripled in speed in about an hour too. Hoping to see some lightning over the ocean

    Nice baby super cell (discrete cell) moving through central Jersey. Let’s see if it holds together moving towards the city.

    Barely a drop here on the south shore of Nassau. Hopefully not a sign of a repeat from last summer when we couldn’t buy a drop during most of these events

    Wasn’t the blue angles, they were half way through the show (they are at the end) and they had cancel the show. A ridiculously thick fog bank rolled in off the ocean. It’s still so foggy here at jones beach we have the water closed as we can’t see the water from the life guard stand. And speaking of the water it’s incredibly warm for this early in the season. A couple sunny warm days and light winds and it’s in the mid 60s

    They tend to come in bunches. 54 had 3 events produce hurricane force winds on Long Island. Carol, Edna and hazel. It really comes down to the pattern. If we end up in a landfall pattern for the north east this season it could get real serious. 38 today, would be a 100+ billion dollar disaster

    Absolutely ripping on the uws. Flash flooding type rain
  7. LongBeachSurfFreak
    That’s actually a pretty solid MCS building. Nice cold pool precip pocket on the backside too. Should hold together all the way to the city

    Fully expect a parade of majors in the mdr. Maybe even multiple cat 5s. Historic season incoming.

    That’s golf ball or larger hail for sure. Would love to see video.

    There’s a couple of nice super cells in Pa currently. Hoping for at least a decent severe event tomorrow

    Siberia doesn’t get much snow. (Mainland, maybe on the coast) it’s just a giant dome of cold dry air most of the winter. Sunny and -50 for months. The summers are surprisingly hot with swarms of mosquitoes so thick it looks like a dust storm. Probably the worst place on earth to live.

    The last few rain events including today so far haven’t really amounted to much, lots of .01 type hour rates. Let’s see if that changes later, better rates to the south.

    I’m baffled how you could possibly claim to care about the environment yet you want to drain the oceans and kill all plants. your an ideal candidate for a mars colonist

    Considering the mechanism that brings cold air to Chicago (out of the Arctic and down south) that map really is impossible.

    Actually ended up with a decent little storm on the uws. Couple bolts and some torrential rain.
  17. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Nice area of precip headed our way, just did the spring plant installation on campus so would love a soaking. More than likely it will split to the north and south of the city.
  18. LongBeachSurfFreak
    That’s a Japanese Kwanzan cherry. BRING ON THE RAIN!
  19. LongBeachSurfFreak
    We are definitely on the same page here. 13/14 was a strong -epo based winter, which we haven’t seen since. Why would that suddenly come back?
  20. LongBeachSurfFreak
    I really think you belong in San Diego. 70 and sunny all the time, with the wind off the pacific low allergens too. being that I love plants and am a horticulturalist, I’ll take the rain.
  21. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Gets hot there too once the ocean warms up and the winds out of the west. currently perfect on the uws, sitting right between the sea breeze boundary. things are really starting to dry out though. Need a good soaking rain.
  22. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Agreed, temps will shoot up the second the sun comes out. This time of year working on the uws and living on the south shore of Long Island, the temp differences are extreme. Yesterday left work in shorts and Tshirt and was freezing when I got home.

    I really hope I get to experience a VEI 7 in my lifetime. Purely from a meteorological perspective. Too much to write in regards to how incredible that would be in the face of global warming.
  24. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Exactly, that’s why I switched careers at 30. Nothing worse than being stuck in a windowless cubicle when you’re a weather enthusiast. Now I get to experience every weather event. I would never go back.

    Those Caribbean cruiser/ GOF seasons aren’t great for Long Island surfers, so I’ll pass. Personally I think this season will be so hyperactive there will be activity everywhere. That and the eastern MDR being so freakishly warm leads to a tendency for early development and strengthening which favors recurves.
