July 2023

Does the current stuff over the Dmrva make it far enough north to impact the island? Or does it slide under? At a minimum the east end is in for a long night.

This batch is barely missing me to the east. It’s kind of a good thing as they largely missed out on the earlier batch.

Yup. It would hae been bad.

Record PWAT for the date.

 

All the way to Maine it seems, impressive!

In Long Beach now, essentially there’s just been just a couple showers here. Maybe something can happen with the rain to the south but we’ll see.

Despite the lower temperature this morning, the air was difficult to breathe with all the humidity.

Today's record rainfall at NYC is only 1.50" (1871). 1926 had 1.38". Tomorrow's record is 3.13" from 1995 two days after a two-day hot spell (96 14th, 102 15th).  To show how variable regional rainfall can be, I noticed that LGA had 3.53" on July 15th 1997 for a daily record but NYC had only 0.17" on that date (max 97, min 77 also). But NYC did record a daily record 3.75" on July 23, 1997.

One of those July 97 days had one of the best lines of storms I've ever experienced. 70 mph wind gusts over a large area

Did well here this am, but nothing since. Think the stuff to the south is sliding too far east to have much of an impact. Unless you’re out east

southern nj, out over eastern LI and SE New england won today.

[Allsnow]

Just some light rain to finish off the day here. Most of my rainfall came yesterday on a day that wasn’t supposed to produce much.

I agree. I think the worst is mostly over with some drier air beginning to punch east into western NJ . Could see one or two rogue lines of showers/storms if there's any heating between 5-7PM. Other than that, for most of us, it's onto Tuesday. Should be near 90 tomorrow. Tues and Friday the stormy days this week.

East end will be the big winner. The stuff to the south seems like it has eyes on it. Gonna be some big totals out there. Rest of us, things appear to be winding down

I’m 2 miles east of RM Causeway. Might get lucky before it hits the eastern end. Only Mother Nature knows

Crazy. I’m basically due south of you and we did ok. Everything slid SW to NE as it intensified. If you missed it, you were done. 
 

East Hampton is going to put down 12” IMO. Getting absolutely smoked

Complete list of 3" daily rainfalls in July at NYC, and also 3.00" two-day totals. 

(the 3.0" list does not include any slightly lower values that might occur using a day on the other side of a heavy rainfall) Notice that many of the entries are towards the end of July.

Note the 3.0" daily list continues with a few near-3.0" values to balance the entries.

_________________ would rank 6 and 7 if included, and expand total list to 17 entries plus next 3 below for top 20.

________________________________________

* No measurable rainfall on days before and after these entries, meaning they have the same representation in 3.0" list, or no representation if below 3.0" like 29th, 1872;  

** Others have measurable amounts on one or both sides of a heavy amount, only the larger of the two totals is shown for 2d amounts (would have included any nearly equal but there were none). 17th 1877 added only 0.01" so does not make the second list. 

^ Total from 2.27" and 2.06" both daily records. (8-9 July 2021)

You’re only a couple miles east of me and I tripled your total. Crazy summer.

[Rmine1]

From today? I don’t have a gauge, but I’m thinking we were north of 2” in brightwaters. You definitely did better the other day where I got skunked while a storm blew up right over WB

Today was strange. We had rolling thunder for 30 minutes. Then when the rain started no more thunder.
