There was one a couple of years ago that dumped up to several inches of rain across NW Suffolk Cty. I’ve been on the edge of the sea breeze front all day. It will pour for 20 mins and 20 mins later the sun is out in full. I’ve lost track of how many downpours I’ve had today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdp146 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Radar is even slow to react. I’m under a rain band that is pretty much as hard as I’ve ever seen it rain. On radar it looks like a shower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely remember a few setups like this where the sunrise highway is the dividing line. I remember on specifically when I was a kid where there was major flash flooding north of the Southern state and nothing south of there. I remember driving home from? With my mother and almost getting stuck multiple times only the get to the SS and the rain just shut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fiends in Long Beach have been on the sand all day in the sun. I feel like this is what a rain forest would be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way back in 1978 when I lived in East Northport a sea breeze front thunderstorm turned violent and produced marble sized hail and numerous CTG lightning strikes along with strong winds. It was one of the very few times I saw hail when I lived out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Rare combination of warm and wet this August since 2000. All the other Augusts in NYC with over 5.00 or rain were cooler than this month so far. This pattern continues in the forecast with more heavy rain and 90 degree days around the area this week. NYC August rainfall over 5.00 and monthly temperature departure 2018....5.15.....+4.0 so far 2011..18.95.....+0.2 2008....5.58......-1.3 2007....7.18......-1.1 2006...6.08.......+0.7 2003...5.85......+1.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't home for most of the day but it did rain here early in the morning and then stayed wet until about 10 and then there were a few very light showers around 6pm but nothing of any real consequence on Sunday, Saturday was very wet with several rounds of heavy rain. We are exactly halfway between the Somers and Brewster Mesonet stations so you can get a very good idea what's going on here using those two and there are a couple of WU stations here in town that you can use too.

Here now 71 dew 70. temp/dews slowly falling thought I might make a run at a below 70 temp. Cant remember the last time i got into the 60s.
