Globalism and all its wonderful side effects.

I lost a 60 year old Ash tree to the Emerald Ash Borer. It was a gorgeous tree with a beautiful canopy that provided tons of shade and a beautiful fall foliage. 

You mean trade? These pests come over on ships from overseas. Ships have been engaged in trade for 1000 years. Ships brought over a lot of what we may think of as native. It’s how it always has been and always will be

Yeah I have to agree. IMO the two biggest causes for Gen Z’s academic struggles were remote learning during COVID and cellphone use in school.

My kids both learned remotely and were fine. I think this is overblown

14.4 was estimated, Sandy was just so historic it’s hard to view any storm as severe after that one

1938 on Long Island was probably worse than Sandy. So figure Sandy is a 1/100 year event. We probably won’t see another comparable event in our lifetimes. 

The winds from December 92:

58 at central park

77 at LGA

86 at Montauk

90 in wildwood NJ

about sandy levels…

yep massive LI sound flooding here with that storm

That I believe is the storm that busted up dune road in west Hampton and created a new inlet. I think there were 15 foot waves in the sound. Wild

I'm not familiar with specific area's and coastal flooding.  Did any area's flood that typically don't in these type of set-ups?  On the news and social media, they always talk about the same areas it seems, so am wondering.

No, it’s always the same areas. I can’t imagine a weather event which would cause flooding in less flood prone areas, other than a major major storm or hurricane. maybe wind direction?

But even so, low elevation is low elevation…nothing is going to change the elevation of areas from one storm to the next. 
 

From a wind perspective this was a moderate nor’easter. From a rain perspective it was on the high end out here, with Suffolk getting 2-3+”.

According to NWS, Moses had a wind gust of 60 early Monday morning and Eaton’s Neck had a 57mph gust around the same time but most of the strongest gusts were in the 40-50mph range, even the beaches. JFK’s was 44mph 

https://partnerservices.nws.noaa.gov/products/cache/286-2025/PNSOKX/74b10c34b8e31e4cc95546e8eacf7578

 

still gusting in the 25-30mph range by me, but they are getting fewer and further between as the morning progresses. 

FRG 48, ISP 49 for the highest airport readings. These gusts were right in line with forecasts. 
 

FYI that Eatons Neck station is raised, it’s like 90 feet or something like that 

2.86” storm total. 

2.82”…

2.78” and showers continue. Don’t think we make it to 3. 

2.74”

Massive gust came out of nowhere, had to be 45+. More rain bands coming in off the ocean 

Up to 2.55”. East end about to get rocked 

Still windy here, constant gusts over 30, maybe 35

Lloyd harbor was pretty wild, usually flat as glass, had 2 foot white caps. 

At the boat now and the winds are howling, nice storm down here

2.20 here so far, that heavy batch that passed over Queens/Nassau overnight helped me catch up to you guys 

Yea that was a meaty band. Squall just blew through and brought me up to 2.44”. Lots of wind in these bands

If this were winter...I'd say wait to crow until midnight tonight.

MUCH more to come today. 1-2", iso heavier coasts and even interior will do ok. 

Convection developing per HRRR - might be quite a nasty afternoon parts of coasts.

Am pretty sure some parts Li and eastern Nj will end up with 4".

CoCoRaHs two day.  .31 Wantage since 5P yesterday.  Two day .4, heading for .6-1.0 three day totals by tomorrow morning.

My location and the surrounding PWS in western Suffolk are well over 2”. Localized maximum not showing up on there
