All Activity

You're lucky it's been raining here for hours. This blows.

Can't wait, checked out the video and there are surfers out there presently getting some good wave action, as mentioed below the tide is coming in with a peak high tide in Southern NJ at 5:30 to 6:20 PM today. Surf zone summary : Fun-size SSE swell has built in this afternoon. Patchy fog but fun chest high waves. Low pressure tracking through the Northwest Atlantic sets up a fun pulse of mid period swell that moves in and peaks this afternoon That offers surf in the chest high range with some bigger sets likely at top spots as the tide pushes in. Shape generally looks pretty fun but parts of Ocean County still are dealing with fog and low visibility. Winds look light most of the day setting up pretty clean/manageable conditions. Make the most of it. https://northwildwood.com/north-wildwood-surf-cams/

Incoming. Just in time for a soccer game.

One of those years.

This guy has some time to cut some trees for you now.

I know that because of our tree blockage issues that trips the rain rate algorithm over to a special attenuation version, BUT it only works below the freezing level. So everything above the freezing level is suspect at best. So for any precip accumulation product that's a factor for us. I'm confident someone right now is working on the contract to get our radar raised to mitigate the issue.

I notice it a lot in winter when there’s a band at 30dBZ over S NH on GYX and BOX has it pushing 35-40. With that said, GYX looks a little light compared to ENX and CBW too right now, but it’s tough to make on a whim comparisons. You would know better than me.

Hey guys know how I know it’s Saturday?

and neither is a good chunk of June...

Drove up Rte 146 Deluge rains most of the ride. And then again as we got home. 1.0” so far after 1.25” yesterday

The good news is May isn't summer haha

we had some sunshine here earlier (you can see the break in the clouds over Long Island.)

It looks like the only days it will rain are Saturday and Tuesday, with mostly cloudy tomorrow and Monday. Finally a nice dry stretch with warmer weather will begin on Wednesday. I don't buy the euro unless other models agree with it.

This summer sucks weather wise thus far. We lost all of May and now here starts June

Clearing into EPA but looks to slow going east

Sandwich job on the rain here-north and south of us-very humid 75 degrees

Heavy precipitation missing with precision.

And it's like almost 10 dBZ off too. I know our beam blockage does through some things off above the freezing level, but Z shouldn't be one of them.

Way out there but the models continue this theme the next two weekends.

It dumped

I wonder if there is a way to look at local temp data from around the area like we look at snowfall data for the March 1888 blizzard and see that southern Brooklyn got 26 inches and northern Queens got 32 inches. As an example, in July 1966, JFK hit 104 and LGA hit 107, while Newark was only 105 and NYC only hit 103. I wonder why this happened in such a dry summer? July 1966 still holds the heat records for both JFK and LGA. in July 2011 JFK got to 103 and LGA got to 104, same as NYC.

There's a 6-8 day cycle for rain/snow We need a multiweek dry period to reset the cycle.

it's finally raining here YAY-- NOT

Hordes of mosquitos here, but one of the lightest black fly seasons we've had. (At least here. Makes me wonder if it was another 1996. On Friday June 7 I spent 5 hours at Oquossuc (Rangeley) Bald Mountain helping scope out a new snowsled trail and saw maybe 10 black flies. The next Monday our men's wilderness retreat reached Portage Lake about noon, and it seemed there were 10 of them per cubic inch. At Deboullie (25 miles SW from Fort Kent) where we camped, Ben's 100 lasted barely an hour. I'd never seen flies so thick before, and haven't since. Tuesday it was 91 at Fort Kent and blazing; black flies usually retreat to the cool woods when it's much over 80, but not that year. Even on Deboullie Pond a hundred yards from shore, they were thick. Maybe insufficient airspace over the land? Only place to hide (other than a steam bath inside a tent) was NW from the pond in hollows amid the spruce forest/boulder garden which still held ice and snow.)

You are not alone in this affliction my friend =\
