Yeah I was talking to my neighbor and he was in his car and the bugs were attacking him inside the car.

Hands down the worst day I've ever seen for Gnats here.

There's at least 4-5 of them that followed me into the house this evening. So annoying.

Heavy rain here

[doncat]

0.17" overnight with a couple of showers.

While it’s nice to be getting some light rain this morning, this is one of the narrower east-west rain bands we have seen in a while.

a mosquito that was trapped inside my car or something managed to bite my hands and arms in like, five different places?  and holy shit i think dry weather made them itchier somehow

Mosquito bites seem to itch almost immediately, but are gone in a day or two.  Gnat bites don't seem to appear for a day or two, are itchier, and last up to a week?

66 / 62 and on day 5 of clouds and not much in the buckets to show for the cloudy stretch.   Two more shots of some meaningful rain Sat (9/28) and Mon (9/30) otherwise scattered , light rain.  Well see if the guidance is right with a general wide 0.50 - 0.95 of rain.    It'll likely be Wed or Thu next week when we clear out which will make 8 or 9 days of clouds since this Monday (9/23)

Looks overall warmer side of normal till about Oct 7/8 when some forecasts have a trough digging in then perhaps more ridging beyond there.

Odd swing from LGA to JFK.

My guess is it’s related to the record easterly flow this month giving LGA an unusual sea breeze influence. JFK always has a sea breeze influence while LGA usually doesn’t. So all the easterly flow resulted in the same temperature for LGA and JFK. It gave LGA a cool breeze off the Sound with a milder E flow at JFK from Central Nassau.

Been enjoying some sun with the clouds up here the past couple hours. Looks like clouds might be starting to push back in, hopefully that's not he case. 

[bluewave]

It looks like areas south of I-80 will actually do better for a change through Sunday morning with so much high pressure over New England.

 

[Brian5671]

Huge halo around the sun here as the high clouds move back in...

[Stormlover74]

Looks like hours and hours of light rain from tonight thru sunday morning. Which is fine for the gardens and brown lawns if it ends up adding up to a half inch or so

Too far north to get into the rains but too far south to escape the clouds

Historical:

 

1816 - A black frost over most of New England kills unripened corn in the north resulting in a year of famine. (David Ludlum)

 

1822: Using various documents and meteorological observations determined a hurricane moved ashore on this day in South Carolina. One account from Bull Island, South Carolina records the eye passing directly over that location.

 

1906: The second September storm of 1906 was one of great violence. On the 27th the hurricane reached the central Gulf Coast with destructive winds and unprecedented tides. At Pensacola, FL, the tide was 10 feet above normal. At Mobile, AL property damage was severe. An estimated 134 lives were lost from Pensacola, FL to Mississippi from this storm.

1959 - A tornado 440 yards in width traveled twenty miles from near Hollow, OK, to western Cherokee County KS. Although a strong tornado, it was very slow moving, and gave a tremendous warning roar, and as a result no one was killed. (The Weather Channel)

1970 - Afternoon highs of 103 degrees at Long Beach, CA, and 105 degrees at the Los Angeles Civic Center were the hottest since September records were established in 1963. Fierce Santa Ana winds accompanying the extreme heat resulted in destructive fires. (The Weather Channel)

1985 - A record early season snowstorm struck the Central High Plains Region. The storm left up to nineteen inches of snow along the Colorado Front Range, and as much as a foot of snow in the High Plains Region. (Storm Data)

1985 - Hurricane Gloria swept over the Outer Banks then rushed across Long Island, New England, and Canada. It was the first significant hurricane to hit New England in twenty-five years and brought heavy rains and high winds to the Mid-Atlantic states as well.

1987 - While those at the base of Mount Washington, NH, enjoyed sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s, the top of the mountain was blanketed with 4.7 inches of snow, along with wind gusts to 99 mph, and a temperature of 13 degrees. Severe thunderstorms developed along a cold front in the south central U.S. A thunderstorm west of Noodle TX produced golf ball size hail and wind gusts to 70 mph. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1988 - Thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front produced large hail in southeastern Wyoming during the afternoon, with tennis ball size hail reported at Cheyenne. Strong winds ushering the cold air into the north central U.S. gusted to 59 mph at Lander WY. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - Freezing temperatures were reported in the Great Lakes Region and the Ohio Valley. Houghton Lake MI reported a record low of 21 degrees. Thunderstorms in the western U.S. produced wind gusts to 50 mph at Salt Lake City UT, and gusts to 58 mph at Cody WY.(The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

 

2014: A squall line impacted central Arizona, including the Phoenix Metro area.
