We have power luckily. I’ll try and post a video in a bit but it doesn’t do it justice from my vantage point. Looked like a nasty storm. Glad you made it through unscathed.

jm1220 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I wonder how big of an area was raked by these storms and the one earlier in the summer that also knocked out power for a chunk of Suffolk County. Maybe Islip/Bay Shore area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatamy Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Have some wind reports to share from Fire Island from tonight’s event: Fire Island Light 46 mph Fair Harbor 46 mph Atlantique 40 mph Point of Woods 40 mph Cherry Grove 40 mph Fire Island Pines 35 mph These gusts all occurred around 10 pm. It is amazing that these stations are still up and reporting after this event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I knew that bow was powerful when its outflow produced pretty Gusty winds despite being well to my north back in NJ. Tornado perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tornado perhaps? This is mostly straight line wind damage. The large area of strong wind reports and radar presentation would strongly support that. I do believe that after Upton does their damage survey that there will be a spot or two where winds will have been determined to reach close to 100 mph.

I can’t rule out a tornado however there is a very large area of wind damage and resulting power outages on the island right now.

Parsley Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 SPC reports with ~60 mph gusts recorded in SW Suffolk, seems accurate. Surely isolated areas with the extensive damage exceeded that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 So far I’ve seen one downed tree and some downed branches. Power outages seem random, some areas have no power while adjacent areas do. Some traffic lights are only partially working, likely damaged by the winds. My basil and pepper plants were steamrolled and I have some snapped palm fronds, but nothing terribly serious as far as I can see (which isn’t much at this hour). 1.03” final total. Rainfall rate peaked at 4 inches per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
