Just raw and miserable out here. Adventureland is open, I see people on rides, they’re nuts.

82. How can anyone hate this?

I saw posts last night from people still stuck in traffic in Vermont, when I had already gotten back to Long Island hours before, taking the scenic route, stopping multiple places along the way. I encountered zero traffic heading back down. Southbound I-89 in NH was Covid lockdown empty, which when coupled with the growing dimness from the eclipse became kind of eerie. Heading up I saw license plates from all over the east coast. None of them could’ve made it.

Taken with my phone in New Hampshire about 5 minutes after peak coverage. I came so close, this is going to annoy me for a while.

Getting quite dark here in NH. Dimmer than 2017 in LI.

I just bailed. I couldn’t take anymore near misses and stop and go traffic on I-91. My ETA slipped from before 2 PM to just after full totality. Going to Boston instead.
-
Contemplating taking the ferry and heading all the way up I-91 into the middle of nowhere tomorrow, but if it’s going to be cloudy I may stay put and enjoy my day off here in the 89% coverage zone.

Anyone else notice a gust of wind (pressure related?) with the arrival of the quake? I’ve heard this from multiple people in both NY and NJ. The glass door of the building I was in blew open and the roof made the loudest creakiest noise, like it wanted to collapse. I thought a helicopter or small plane struck the roof or something else nearby (I was near ISP). During the 2011 earthquake I lived in Queens, multiple stories in the air, my bed was bouncing and the building started swaying in a way that was uncomfortable. One wall developed cracks. Another quake in 2016, in the Rockaways, with an epicenter about 30-40 miles offshore. It was less than a 3.0 but I felt it and saw things moving. Much weaker than 2011 or today though.

Exactly 3 inches here, so many of these events since last year. I use to struggle to reach 2” in a calendar day.
-
0.72” here, rates fairly low so far.
-
75 again today, I didn’t expect that.
-
Topped out at 75 here, low was 35. Most forecasts had it reaching 66-68.

You’ll still get your 40’s at night. Currently 73, full sun, light breeze, feels dreamy.

Cherry blossoms opening up in deep Suffolk. High of 63 here.
