Up to 1.71" in Central Park. Desperately needed rain.

Just looked at the 0z Euro. Another 15 days of deep winter.

Just amazing weather for the summer.

Colors to be erased clean in next Thursday's drought monitor update. Climo here makes it very hard to run a legit drought for too long. Last weekend and this weekend brought many of us to above normal YTD precipitation with 2 months worth of rain in 8 days.

LGA up to 2.75" today. Park will cross 2" soon.

Yup. Kids are petrified.

Even in a year full of RI events, what Gati has done today is extremely impressive. LOOK: Tropical Cyclone 03A (#Gati) "explosively" intensified from a minimal Tropical Storm to a (Category 3-equivalent) Severe Cyclonic Storm in just 12 hours. According to JTWC, it is now bearing down on Somalia with 1-minute maximum sustained winds of up to 185 km/h. https://t.co/IqtOEWXsSS

Heaviest rain I've seen in my life. Not kidding. Around 2 minutes.

It's all Greek to me.

964mb on the dropsonde. Winds up significantly. 89kts FL and 82kts unflagged SFMR.

922mb now.

The next frame might be stronger for all we know.

Only 927mb extrapolated

Another Air Force Recon plane just took off.

We might not be impressed by garbage hurricanes after this.
