Cold Miser Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hudson was raging under the Tappan Zee about 30 minutes ago when I crossed. Some minor flooding at one of the marinas closest to the bridge (Tarrytown or Sleepy Hollow?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im standing outside on merrick ave south of Merrick rd As usual we're an epicenter of power outages looking at the LIPA map...so far 5-6 different outages in Merrick alone. We're on borrowed time up here north of Sunrise with all the trees, we rarely if ever can survive these without going out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthlight Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 The winds are really starting to pick up here now. You can hear a constant low roar from the wind gusts along the Watchung mountains to my west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Its early but so far you can clearly see the effects of a N-NE wind vs. E-SE on the power outages on LI vs. Irene....much less outages over 5-6 hours of winds of this magnitude on the N direction. Obviously, we're aided a bit by drier ground and alot of weaker trees being gone too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even down here we're not mixing completely as some people thought. We've seen 50-55kts but we have 80kts at 900mb....I still think we see gusts to 70 with the immediate beaches, especially on the twin forks and coastal NJ seeing 80, but people saying gusts to 95 or 100 or even 85 5, or even 10-15 miles inland I still think are out to lunch.
