The sun just poked out here. Here are some of the rainfall totals so far today. Looks like Eastern Suffolk was the big winner this morning with well over 3" in some places.

The following are unofficial observations taken during the past 12
hours for the storm that has been affecting our region. Appreciation
is extended to Highway departments... cooperative observers... Skywarn
spotters and media for these reports. This summary is also available
on our home Page at weather.Gov/NYC

I recorded 2.14" in Commack, remarkable consistency.

No, they should probably call it. Right now rain looks to move into Boston around 8PM and not move out until after 1AM.

Yeah calling it is way better than making everyone suffer through another long rain delay.  Is the Sunday game an ESPN Sunday Night game?

Oh, sounds like the only other option is a DH on Saturday, unless they want to do one in September when they play again (or on an off day.)

 

This is the Yankees last trip into Fenway this season. Actually the Yankees are off on Monday, but they are still flying to Detroit on Sunday, therefore I highly doubt they would play a day night double header on Sunday.

Are you saying that MLB will take the Yankees flight plans into account when rescheduling?

Not expecting much from this line. I received 1.60 inches of rain in 45 minutes today from the warm frontal activity. Didn't clear much this afternoon, so I expect mostly showers for suffolk, some of which can be heavy due to the high moisture content.
