IsentropicLift Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 It's been raining moderatly to heavy at times here in Ramsey for a majority of the day, I'm thinking perhaps the nearest reporting station is having issues but all of the other locations have similar numbers so I guess not.

gravitylover Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Way too much water. I drove past a bunch of different reservoirs on the Croton system today and the biggest ones have the floodgates wide open and the water was shooting 75 feet high out of the bottom of the dam at the two biggest ones I went by. The overflows are raging and the Croton river system is totally overwhelmed in spots. Great show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Through 4 pm, 2.54" precipitation had fallen in Central Park. That breaks the daily rainfall figure of 2.19", which was set in 1973. It is also the 3rd highest daily precipitation figure for December. Only December 13, 1909 with 3.03" and December 13, 1941 with 2.97" saw more precipitation. Interestingly enough, both 1909 and 1941 saw pattern changes to colder evolve in the medium-term following the excessive precipitation event. Today was the second day this year on which 2.50" or more precipitation fell. The historic average is 1.1 such events per year. The 1970-2014 average is 1.7 such events per year. Total precipitation for 2014 is 52.29". That ranks 28th on the all-time annual list. Records go back to 1869. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on Fulton Street two blocks away and I can definitely speak to the force of the water when the surge arrived. What cars were around were picked up and floated away like bath toys.

The few video clips from the Reynolds Channel side like this one near the hospital show just how scary things got for the people that stayed.

NEG NAO Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Kind of confused - why is Upton saying there will be up to 4 inches of snow in their AFD for NYC and their forecast has no mention of it ?
