How'd you do? Think you broke 60?

Winds are much calmer now here in central Suffolk. I’m assuming because the low already made landfall?

The winds are shifting and will come out of the west and increase again over the next couple of hours.

I would estimate about 45-50 mph range. Winds were definitely stronger on the barrier island side of the Great South Bay into the 60's.

DT's dropping

It was fantastic for the the January 2016 blizzard so I am not complaining.

[Juliancolton]

Winds inland are supermeh but I think we all knew that would be the case. I might have touched 35 mph a couple times here... will likely dwarf these gusts under clear skies around midday tomorrow.

Gusting over 40 on this side..

[weathermedic]

Winds have died down considerably here in Brooklyn. 

[Eduardo]

Probably gusted close to 60 or so here in Lindenhurst.  Fortunately managed to hold onto power, but some blocks are in the dark.

[Juliancolton]

Getting quite mild and muggy here on the east side of the low. I'm reading 972 mb and leveling out now. 

[Rtd208]

Picked up 3.35" of rain yesterday.

It's so cool to see the temp spiking imby from the warm seclusion. Pressure starting to rise now. The pressure trace is gonna look like something from one of Josh's cane intercepts.
