That New Haven reading looks low to me. Been pouring here since 6 a.m.

[Juliancolton]

I'm currently losing a remarkable 2 mb per hour. Never seen the pressure drop so rapidly at my location.

Just had a intense gust here at Medford, NY in suffolk. I’m not sure how high, maybe 40mph gust.

the surface as 50 to 60 mph gusts through 11 pm.

This magnitude of wind can blow down several trees and cause power

Timely report. The wind has really picked up here in southern Westchester over the past 10 minutes.

[ForestHillWx]

Not much wind out this way, but I'm in the middle of a great band of rain. No idea how much; 2.5"-3" seems fair.

I lost nearly 2mb in 10 minutes between 8:17 PM and 8:27 PM, the pressure dropped from 989.0 to 987.3 which seems quite extreme. I’ve never seen such a steep drop here and it’s still plummeting.

982.6 at the moment. 2.43” of rain.

Wow, that is crazy. Maybe the result of some mesoscale wave passing through?

Several strong gusts coming through.

Dry slot coming int the NYC area

Meanwhile, the radar looks drenching for eastern LI

2.72" in the park. Added 0.37" this hour with the radar not looking great.

 

983.8 mb in the park. Down 4.2 mb this hour.

[Snowberd]

Feels like I’m in a different weaker storm than most on this board. Oceanside is usually the storm hole of LI. 22 gusts to 35. 1.83” rain at 29.15... doesn’t get any better than this... used to underperformance and the rain is just about over here. Meh

Newark added 0.67" this hour.

3.68" total.

 

Overperformer when compared to expectations.

[weathermedic]

28.99 now. Can't remember the last time I had a sub 29.00 reading (maybe Sandy?) 2.48 inches of rain so far.

We underperformed rain in regard to the rest of the city at 2.23". I'm used to it though. 29.01" and wind increasing.

The drought monitor update this week is going to look nice.

The dry slot should stay East of the TPK. Check out KDIX.

Reasonable expectations for this event were 2-3" with locally up to 5".

[NortheastPAWx]

And just like that we are now sub-29.

[BxEngine]

Transformer explosions up in rockland apparently.
