SI Mailman

To think I flew directly over DR 7 hours ago at 35,000 feet and it was a smooth ride. Was on an aisle seat so I didn’t exactly look out the window at the outer bands

there’s a whale in the water at long branch!  wooooow

Probably gonna push well into October for the first day I deliver the mail in long pants (forecast high below 65 degrees)

Lots of thunder by me, but only .08 in the rain bucket

77 degrees here in Flushing, the sun is trying to break through the overcast skies

It’s been raining for over an hour here now.

Just got caught in the middle of a long block, I’m soaked.

97/75.

Now excuse me while I chug a gallon of water and deliver 11 more blocks of mail out of my heat box mail truck

To think I almost got a car wash. Rain has commenced here near the Staten Island Mall

Radar looking mighty active right now

Yes, that’s my neighborhood and where I’ve been delivering today.  Lots of storm damage with downed branches

.75 inches and counting so far

Holy crap this cell means business.  Wind action now just briefly knocked out my power 

Thunder, lightning and rain here on Staten Island right now.

That cell found it’s way down to me. Poured for 15 minutes

Looks like another healthy cell 5 miles to my north by the Goethals bridge. Doncat might be getting in on that action
