^^^^ I remember that storm well...My wife and I had a meeting that we had to attend the next morning in Manhattan...Had to shovel out the car at 4am and drive a couple miles to catch the bus into the city.
The lake levels are high because of well above normal precip last couple of years.... I remember not too many years prior, the levels were very low and there was concern about that.
Euro really backed off the cold shot for end of week...went from mid 20's on Friday to low 40's, and lowest Temps from low teens to low 20's by Sat. am. Other models do still show the colder outlook however.
Pressure bottomed out at 28.79"...Total rain of 0.97"...Wind gusted to 45 mph. High temp of 58° which is a date record...Had a 10° temp rise in ten minutes earlier this am.
Those excessive rain totals earlier forecasted have gone by the wayside....now look to finish with around 1.25" from last night thru tomorrow midday, more s less n. So far 0.64" here.
