    Thanks for posting this! I have always been fascinated with west Hampton. Sometimes it almost seems unbelievable. Almost like a mini chinook.

    29 in wantagh for the coldest of the season. Still only managed 35 at the Park. So the growing season continues on the uws. I just started potting my elephant ears here on campus for the winter.

    Exactly. The only way the coast is seeing snow anytime soon is with a perfectly placed powerful low. Think post Sandy storm. Water temps are ridiculously warm for this time of year. The flow has to be straight north. Any east at all and it’s torch city.

    Growing season still going strong on the uws. I still have tropicals out on campus

    Anyone looking for coastal snow in November needs to understand climatology. It happens, but it’s rare, even in the past during a colder climate.

    Best thunderstorm for so late in the year I have seen on the uws. Legit pea sized hail and solid lightning. Winds only topped out around 40mph though.

    That’s exactly what happened during the February 1899 beast. Look into that storm if your interested in all kinds of crazy snow in the south. It just missed us up here but gave 30”+ to cape may.

    What time should we expect the arrival of the possible sting jet?

    Just had some very strong winds on the uws, estimating gusts over 40. This area does really well with se winds as we are up on morning side heights, so we naturally Stick 150-200’ above the rest of the city to our Se.

    This has to be one of the most boring stretches of weather we have had. Once the wind picks up Friday leaves are going to fall like crazy here on the uws.

    35 at the wantagh meso, so I’m sure frost verifies on the south shore of Nassau. There wasn’t any yet when I left for work on the uws at 445. Temps fell an additional 2-3 degrees after I left which should have made the difference

    If the wind goes dead calm tonight even jfk has a chance for 32. You will have frost on colder surfaces tonight regardless. Lga and cpk have no shot

    That’s ridiculous. Same issue here on Long Island in the Hamptons. Areas where workers used to Live now sell in the millions. So everyone is forced to commute in and out to work. It’s unsustainable. I was able to find a nice house to rent near Stratton with friends for this winter, but we are all late 30s with Careers and are there to ride not party. When I was younger and we did party our rentals did take a beating.

    Get on top the ridge by the lighthouse and I’m sure you will crack 60 in no time. Meanwhile here on the uws it’s dead calm

    Some very impressive gusts on the cape sustained at 60 gusting to 75. https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=chtm3 also 33 foot wave heights just NE of Boston, there is going to be damage from this in coastal eastern NE. wind field seems tight, almost tropical like. And I think a big reason this has underperformed in our area

    Checking the buoys the strong winds are still way off shore. This is going to have to move west fast before the storm starts to occlude and winds die.
  18. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Any insight on how much snow fell in the Sierras? I’d have to imagine the snow level was high, but above it many feet fell. Good start to the winter snow pack!
  19. LongBeachSurfFreak
    We could see our strongest October nor’easter since 97. The 97 storm had gusts to near hurricane force on Long Island with trees in full leaf causing lots of tree damage. Could we see a repeat?
  20. LongBeachSurfFreak
    That’s hard to say. You would need to run the exact pattern with January temps to find out exactly. This could easily be an inland blizzard in January. Coast would see something like March 19. It’s been very dry near the coast which could cause rain to runoff faster then normal. Could easily see flash flooding issues in the usual spots. winds look strong enough to take down a few trees as it’s been a while since we have had winds of the magnitude from that direction with trees in full leaf
  21. LongBeachSurfFreak
    In our old Climate this was definitely true. The problem is we have seen ultra persistent patterns in recent years. The question is how long this can hold. It’s not what we want to see.
  22. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Nightmare pattern for us if it were mid winter. We need to see big big changes if we want a snowy winter.
  23. LongBeachSurfFreak
    Exactly. We saw what happened after the record cold in November 18/19.
  24. LongBeachSurfFreak
    That’s really the new normal. I’m sure you have seen me talk about by sea ice theory. It just takes the Arctic take longer to cool when you need to time to create ice. Today is great! I love this weather when I get hot working I just shed the jacket.

    I have been trying. I just got approval to do a tree of heaven removal with my garden club in Morningside Park in Manhattan. They were loaded with them the last time I checked, but only spotty elsewhere so far here on the uws
