Williamsburg. I have my own anemometer. Maybe it was a bad reading but that was a very strong gust

Just curious, how many floors up (or feet above ground level) is that anemometer?

Power out. Gust to 60 at least

Babylon gusted to 63 mph according to WABC-TV. Lindenhurst gusted to 51 mph on the Mesowest network.

My station bottomed out at 28.9" here = 978.6 mb. Impressive.

[weathermedic]

28.93 here in Sheepshead Bay. 2.48 in the bucket with the dry slot. Not much of a wind event here yet. I'm guessing strongest winds will be on the back side as the storm pulls up into NY state.

Just lost a big tree in my back yard! I live in Miller Place north shore Suffolk. Came crashing down on the back deck shook whole house. Could here the roar of the gust coming...pretty scary

[Juliancolton]

I was impressed by 2 mb/hr earlier, but the pressure here fell over 6 mb between 9:30 and 10:30. Insanity.

Visually seeing transformers blow up in distance. Still have power but not for long I suspect. Guessing around 50mph gusts here.

Is this some sort of record?

[ncforecaster89]

Expect mid to eastern LI to see highest gusts mix down from the LLJ as the strongest convection moves up from the south in the next couple of hours.  Could see gusts > 60 kt.  

[MJO812]

Very strong gusts right now in Brooklyn

[Fantom X]

22,600 customer affected power outages on LI as of now

Wind just flipped from easterly to wsw and gusted to 33. I believe all of NYC is about to experience their share of the wind now through tomorrow.

No. The daily record is 28 degrees, which was set in 1976.

Winds beginning to increase drastically here in Southeastern Union County. Happened in a flash.

I meant to ask if the 31 degrees cooler there is some sort of record.

I am not sure. It could be for this date/time of year.
