Weathergun Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Upton communications, including their radars, have been knocked out apparently. BOS has taken over. The storm over Westchester seems to be growing heading more south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 All residents know that it's "on" the Island, not "in" the Island. We got barely anything here-- just heard some rumbles of thunder, had some showers in between partly sunny skies LOL I heard that there was 2 inch hail and it piled up 6 inches deep and 4-6 inches of rain? Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Lol I say "in Long Island", I'm already ON Long Island (Queens) but not IN it (Nassau/Suffolk). Edit: Nevermind lol, I get it. Huh? I think either way would be fine. With the way people talk grammatically in present-day society, this "mistake" isn't that big-- if it's a mistake at all. Most people say "I live in New York City" or "I live in Nassau County," etc. It's not a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! Seriously!? Damn dude that sucks. There was 1" hail in Rockville Centre. You know it's bad when all of your high school facebook friends who don't know anything about weather are all making statuses about "the end of the world". lol.

SnowGoose69 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 A bit off topic, but whoever loses the Islanders vote tonight will blame this storm. The funny thing is the storm absolutely crippled an area where many no votes would actually come out of.....the problem though is the LIRR was suspended and traffic got heavy causing some people to have a hard time getting home....again though, the majority of folks who work in the city who live on LI actually live on the north shore and not south....again, an area where there are likely to be more no voters than yes. Its an Isles conspiracy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VALID 012218Z - 012315Z THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 711 CONTINUES. RECENT RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS NUMEROUS DISCRETE AND SMALL CLUSTERS OF TSTMS ADVANCING SEWD TOWARDS THE ATLANTIC COAST. THESE TSTMS HAVE FORMED ALONG AND AHEAD OF A DIFFUSE AND WEAKLY CONFLUENT SFC COLD FRONT...PLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 20 E MSV TO 20 SE CXY PER 22Z SFC SUBJECTIVE ANALYSIS. ALTHOUGH EFFECTIVE SHEAR REMAINS MODEST /AROUND 20 KTS/ DUE TO WEAK AND NEARLY UNIDIRECTIONAL FLOW THROUGH THE LOWER HALF OF THE TROPOSPHERE...SEVERAL OF THESE TSTMS CONTINUE TO DISPLAY STRONG REFLECTIVITY CORES...LIKELY CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SVR HAIL AND ISOLATED DMGG DOWNBURST WINDS. EXTRAPOLATION OF CURRENT MOTION SUGGESTS CLUSTERS OF TSTMS OVER SRN NY AND WRN CT SHOULD REACH THE ATLANTIC COAST BY 23Z. HOWEVER...THE ENVIRONMENT WILL LIKELY REMAIN SUPPORTIVE FOR ADDITIONAL GENERATION OF TSTMS THROUGH AT LEAST THE NEXT 1-2 HRS. A GRADUAL TREND DOWNWARD IN TSTM COVERAGE/INTENSITY IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR LATER THIS EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF DIABATIC HEATING. ..ROGERS.. 08/01/2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
