bristolri_wx Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Not sure why there’s so much anger towards tracking interesting weather in late August. Sure not as strong as some had hoped, but as a homeowner with a hurricane rider I’m quite happy it didn’t max out… I’ll repost this to lighten the mood since it’s still applicable, thanks to the forums AI software lol… 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick-02540 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 1 hour ago, KPITSnow said: In all seriousness though I think this is a perfect example as to why forecasting should never go private. When you have JB posting irresponsible garbage like he did but it becomes the front line of forecasting that isn’t good. The NWS was pretty conservative and in point this whole time. A really stupid population is what keeps really stupid private enterprises going, rather than causing them to fail. (And government run agencies are no different, probably even worse in the sense there is no incentive.) I'm all for private. But it becomes hard when you have a population of idiots. Freedom requires intelligence. Otherwise, we get massive government intrusion to "take care" of the idiots. And we're all negatively affected by that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiator Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Obviously not a ‘primary’ source, but I’m a sucker for visualizations like this one of Block Island winds: https://www.windy.com/?41.168,-72.677,8 Reminds me of sci-fi movies where someone pulls out the stopper from the Atlantic Ocean and then everything starts swirling around the drain… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamblinRed Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 The heavy rain associated with Henri not only forced the concert celebrating New York City's comeback to be cut short Saturday, but it also resulted in New York City's Central Park beating its daily rainfall record with 4.45 inches of rain. The old record was 4.19 inches of rain, which was from 1888. It was also New York City's wettest day since 2014. The storm also broke the city's all-time hourly rainfall record. "The 1.94" of rain that fell from 10pm to 11pm at Central Park last night was the wettest hour on record for New York City," the NWS in New York tweeted this morning. 3.78" of rain between 10 pm and midnight.
