With all the blocking, areas just N and W of NYC could see 50s next weekend.

I know this is way out there range, but I have plans to be in the Poconos for the Perseid meteor shower.  I'm going there Saturday August 7th and will be there until Monday August 16th for the shower.  Of course, no specifics can be given, but can you at least hint at some generalities like sunny, dry weather hopefully?  And hopefully not humid or really hot either.  50s at night would be perfect.  The other really good thing is the moon will be in the first half of its phase cycle so will be setting before midnight that week and not interfere with the Perseids!

Pushing almost 2 hours straight now of heavy rainfall, lightning and thunder has calmed down a little but it’s still there

huh how are you getting that weird rainy weather when you're on long island just like I am?  We just had a few flashes of lightning and no rainfall of consequence.  We had enough of that this morning though.

1” to 1.50”/hr on KOKX. Yellow is 2”/hr rainfall on my RadarScope. Port Washington  to Westbury are in line for that it seems.

How and why the hell does the rainfall always miss this area?  See that area between Valley Stream and Oceanside lol?  All we get is flashes of lightning and power outages, but no rain.  What's the reason this happens?

We did have rain this morning but it was general stratiform rain (welcome though, especially without lightning, which I don't like seeing since it causes power outages here.)

Was that back in July 2019 when JFK had the back to back 99 highs and the record 117 heat indices?  I remember it was a Saturday and Sunday that happened.

Looks like absolutely nothing happened here, the moon is out and no signs of any clouds anywhere.

I’m in Jericho, that storm was parked over us for a couple of hours. CG lightning was insane here, back home in Lindenhurst I would have probably been in the same boat as you lol

Funny how these storms always seem to do this.  It's like a repeating pattern.  Cant be a coincidence.

The electrical grid is so fragile here that a couple of distant lightning flashes takes the power down lol.

Morning thoughts…

Today will become mostly sunny and very warm. Temperatures will rise to the upper 80s and lower 90s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 89°

Newark: 93°

Philadelphia: 93°

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 85.1°; 15-Year: 86.2°

Newark: 30-Year: 86.8°; 15-Year: 88.2°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 87.7°; 15-Year: 88.7°

Tomorrow will be partly cloudy and hot.

With the downsloping wind, could JFK beat NYC in temps the next two days, Don, and get to 90+ both days?

Another 2.31 on the North Shore with the thunderstorms last night.  This brings the Port Washington total to 14.31 for July so far. This probably ranks among the heaviest July rainfall totals ever recorded on Long Island.

Several years ago, I remember the SW part of Nassau county had flooding rainfalls with a stalled storm in July, do you remember this Chris?  Basements were flooded, and I believe JFK got between 4 and 5 inches of rain?  This isn't the 10 inch deluge that happened here in August 2011, this was a much more localized event that only hit southern Queens and SW Nassau county.

damn August 2011 was so close to 20" I'm sure parts of Long Island hit it in August 2011 just like they did in October 2005.  I know western Long Island had 10" in just one Saturday event in August 2011.  Has JFK ever had 20" in one month?

and lol @ March and April 1983, back to back 10"+ months!  Had accumulating snow as late as April 19-20 that year too!

and 1933 and 1934 had back to back Septembers with 10"+ must have been an active tropics that decade lol. 1938 was only a few years away.....and 1944 a few years after that.
