wdrag Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I'd considered a thread for iso 5" FF rain tonight-Tue but I'm a little caught up in other things so it's as always, yours to comment. I'm lowering our pool, if that means anything here in in NJ, to allow for 21/2" to fill skimmer.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Records: Highs: EWR: 97 (2015) NYC: 95 (2015) LGA: 94 (1944) JFK: 94 (1978) Lows: EWR: 55 (1979) NYC: 56 (1979) LGA: 58 (1979) JFK: 56 (1979) Historical: 1899: Hurricane San Ciriaco set many records on its path. Killing nearly 3,500 people in Puerto Rico, it was the deadliest hurricane to hit the island and the strongest at the time, until 30 years later when the island was affected by the Hurricane San Felipe Segundo, a Category 5 hurricane, in 1928. It was also the tenth deadliest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded. San Ciriaco is also the longest lasting Atlantic hurricane in recorded history, continuing for 28 days. On August 17, the hurricane turned back to the northwest and made landfall near Hatteras, North Carolina on the following day. San Ciriaco remains the strongest hurricane to make landfall on the Outer Banks since 1899. 1915 - A hurricane hit Galveston, TX, with wind gusts to 120 mph and a twelve foot storm surge. The storm claimed 275 lives, including forty-two on Galveston Island, with most deaths due to drowning. Of 250 homes built outside the seawall (which was constructed after the catastrophic hurricane of 1900), just ten percent were left standing. (The Weather Channel) 1946 - An estimated F-4 tornado killed 11 people and injured 100 others in the Mankato, Minnesota area around 6:52 PM. The deaths and most of the injuries occurred in the complete destruction of the 26 cabins at the Green Gables tourist camp, 3 miles southwest of Mankato. A 27-ton road grader was reportedly hurled about 100 feet. Another tornado an hour later destroys downtown Wells, Minnesota. 1969: The music festival, known as Woodstock, should have ended on this day. Jimi Hendrix, the last act to perform, was delayed due to rain on Sunday evening. Jimi Hendrix took the stage at 8:30 am Monday morning. 1969 - Camille, the second worst hurricane in U.S. history, smashed into the Mississippi coast. Winds gusted to 172 mph at Main Pass Block LA, and to 190 mph near Bay Saint Louis MS. The hurricane claimed 256 lives, and caused 1.3 billion dollars damage. Several ocean going ships were carried over seven miles inland by the hurricane. The hurricane produced winds to 200 mph, and a storm surge of 24.6 feet. Complete destruction occurred in some coastal areas near the eye of the hurricane. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel) 1987 - Evening thunderstorms produced severe weather in the Northern and Central Plains Region. One thunderstorm spawned a tornado near Fairbury NE, along with baseball size hail and wind gusts to 100 mph, causing severe crop damage west of town. Ten cities in the eastern U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. Syracuse NY hit 97 degrees for the first time in twenty-two years. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Fifty-five cities, from the Middle Mississippi Valley to the Middle Atlantic Coast Region, reported record high temperatures for the date. Beckley WV reported an all-time record high of 96 degrees, and Baltimore MD hit 104 degrees, marking their thirteenth day of the year with 100 degree heat. Chicago IL equalled a record with 46 days of 90 degree weather for the year. Thunderstorms produced severe weather from Wisconsin to New Jersey. Thunderstorms in New Jersey produced high winds which gusted to 92 mph at Wrightstown, and blew down a circus tent at Lavallette injuring fourteen persons. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Morning thunderstorms produced three to six inch rains in Oklahoma, and the Arkalatex area of Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana. Tom OK was soaked with 5.98 inches of rain, and Foreman AR received 5.55 inches. Evening thunderstorms produced high winds in the Wasatch Front of northern Utah. Thunderstorm winds gusted to 66 mph at Salt Lake City, and flash flooding caused up to two million dollars damage to a marina on Lake Powell.

Stormlover74 Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Sharp cutoff on hrrr from next to nothing to 2"+ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwx21 Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 48 minutes ago, Stormlover74 said: Sharp cutoff on hrrr from next to nothing to 2"+ And this run is much different with the placement of the very heavy rains than the 18z run. The 18z HRRR run had the very heavy stuff to the south and west. Obviously it doesn't have a clue at this point where the big rains will be. We just have to wait until tomorrow, but there is major potential. NAM 3km doesn't show that huge amounts that HRRR does, but it has a half inch to an inch and a half for most. Hopefully most areas will get a good soaking. Important that we get it since it's going to be a long time before we get rain again after Monday.

SACRUS Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 72 / 69 0.39 in the bucket overnight and yesterday. Cloudy and humid with scattered storms and showers today. Some breaks and sunshine and warmer Mon (8/19) with more showers and storms chances as trough cuts off and rotates over northern new england, low to mid 80s. Tue - Thu cooler with cut off trough 70s for the most part. Warmer progression by Fri (8/23) as ridge builds east and western heat expands east. Core of heat goes up and over but hotter final week of the month, overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Some weakness/trouging off the NE coast keeps the core of the heat at bay, but heat pushing east 8/24 - last week of the month and perhaps next spike with ridge Labor day. Looks like max in mid 90s at this stage with strongest heat west and north. Should be enough to get a late season heatwave for many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as convinced in the big heat 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
