Most major sites are just a little above average since June 1st. Bridgeport is the only major station with an uneven big departure. So for the heavy rain to be more even most sites would need to be like Bridgeport.

Disagree with that. Bridgeport is the clear outlier and most stations were nearly identical. For the rain to be more even, Bridgeport would need to be more like the other 5 sites, not the reverse.

Typical uneven nature of rainfall from convection. We would probably need a tropical system to have the heaviest totals spread out more evenly. Bridgeport currently has the heaviest totals since June 1st of the major reporting stations. 
 

June 1st through August 3rd rainfall

NYC….10.28….+0.67

LGA…..9.61……+0.83

EWR….9.74…..+0.27

JFK…..9.31……+1.19

ISP…..10.33……+2.66

BDR….15.84…..+8.36

that looks very even to me...5/6 stations within 1 inch over a 60 day period is very even. 

Up to 2.04" for this event. 

11.84" since July 1. Just about a foot of rain. 

crazy squall right now. blinding rain and winds gusting 35+

grass will be more green after this

I’m not sure it can get any greener 

Classic El Niño summer. Everything is lush and green. 

1.50” so far and more to come. I’m sure we’ll hear more drought talk 

84 today. Florida pattern now. Steamy

87 today. Beautiful day to sail the new boat. Winds gusting to 20 mph or so was perfect 

78 today.

Looks like it's finally winding down...another monster event for some areas of the subforum

I can’t wait to hear again how we’re in a big drought after the area received 10 inches of rain this month

2.48” storm total. 9.73” for the month.

The flood watches east of the city probably could've been taken down yesterday AM although maybe Upton kept them up because of uncertainty with the surface low's evolution. But it was 100% obvious starting 48hrs out that the heaviest rain would be west of the city. The expectation was widespread 2-3" from what I saw which I think only happened in some parts of Suffolk. Much of Nassau and most of the city had 1" or less. I had maybe 1.7". Maybe someone had a flood warning in Suffolk but I was asleep. I wasn't optimistic since a lot of the models went to straight dry slot here but was a little pleasantly surprised.

A lot of Suffolk has between 2 and 3”. Im at 2.35”. Islip airport about the same.

No one was “calling bust 2 hours into an event”.  Monday was filled with warnings and precautions for Tuesday during the day.  Merely commenting on the overhype of a rain event that clearly was going to be west of NYC, let alone LI. 

This is not true. Look back at the posts. 

2.21” total. 9.56” for July, Suffolk County. 
 

the Long Island posters have to stop calling bust and whining early in events. Please. 
 

Getting destroyed out here. Firehose off the ocean. Up to 1.67”. As usual those calling bust 2 hours into an event look foolish 

0.02”. 

Good luck NJ, hopefully flooding isnt too bad.

I went up there not too long ago driving around. Did you go fishing or to park? 

Tied up with some friends to swim and hangout for the day. 

Lloyd Harbor, New York (Suffolk County) yesterday evening. Perfect day.

Been saying this for years. There is an agenda here. Easy to see why Central Park would be cooler than the concrete hell holes that LGA and EWR are.

 

Now the concrete hellhole airports may be more representative of NYC climate as a whole, but that is another discussion. 

That is vastly different then the pushed conspiracy theory that CPK temp readings are wrong

Buddy. When it’s 90 in Montauk and Weshampton and JFK and 86 in the park, it’s not an agenda or a conspiracy, it’s a temperature that’s not representative of the area. Don’t tell me it’s cooler in Central Park than all of the coastal terminals in early summer. Enough. 

Showers bubbling up on some boundary across the island. Looks dark as night out there. 

0.25” today.
