Watertown gusting to 78 at 48 degrees

I guess that makes sense if you are talking Watertown upstate NY. They would be right between the approaching low and the retreating high. Big pressure gradient.

[MJO812]

Howling winds right now 

[Intensewind002]

Gusting to around 40 still, really starting to hear the roar of the LLJ now though

Squall line looks like a literal snake. Wow. 

[Cyg]

Should have went down to Brick for this. Gonna be rocking and rolling down there in a bit.

2.20 inches of rain and 50° winds not crazy - I’ve been listening to fire and EMS radio for a loooong time so judging on how quiet it is Westchester Co and Fairfield Co are doing OK. With the storm before Christmas the radio was going crazy and I lost power for 12 hours!

72 mph gust at Island Beach State Park

Wow. Headed up the coast. Well modeled too 

[lee59]

Looks like winds die right down after squall line passage.

[BobbyHolikWillFindYou]

Surprised no gusts for the last hour or so in Passaic cty.

[Stormlover74]

Looks like the northern part of the line is weakening as the southern part strengthens...will probably clip the city and hit LI

[lee59]

Looks like the worst of the wind may come thru around low tide on the south shore of Long Island.

72 mph gust at Island Beach State Park

I installed that station there at the bathhouse pavilion when working for the state. Guess I mounted it in a really nice spot.

[Rmine1]

The roar has arrived. Expecting the worst over the next two hours

That’s crazy. Not translating to LI proper though 

[TriPol]

Holy hell those winds are something out of a movie.

[Rtd208]

It is absolutely pouring here.

[Stormlover74]

2.03" Winds dying down.

2.67 inches of rain so far today. Temp is 56. Highest wind gust 54 mph. Southern morris County.

[jm1220]

Velocities over 110mph near Tom’s River. Not sure how high that is in the radar beam from OKX but there’s some serious wind not far off the ground. 

[guinness77]

Lol, just got home. Sounds like a train coming down my street. Ain’t putting the recycling out tonight. Even with bricks on top of the cans, I don’t trust them to not end up all over the street. 

[jm1220]

And that squall line looks like it’s strengthening headed east. Yikes. 

[uofmiami]

Gusted to 42mph in Muttontown

[kingbaus]

Getting sand blasted over here.

[lee59]

Finally hit 40, peak gust now 45mph.

[TJW014]

Velocities over 110mph near Tom’s River. Not sure how high that is in the radar beam from OKX but there’s some serious wind not far off the ground. 

From KDIX radar, 110 mph velocities are at a beam height of 2500 feet, 30 miles away from the radar.
