  1. But if you go back to the November 15 event, that one had strong winds everywhere, did they come from a different direction?
  2. Not to mention the cars that have been crashing into these outdoor seating areas.
  3. we need some sort of national park on Long Island where trees dont get cut. we do have some state parks.
  4. Chris, are we going to make the record for the warmest November on record?
  5. Yeah I like long lasting storms even if the rates are only moderate. Some of our best storms have been like that.
  6. and then a four month long depression in the nonwinter of 01-02.....
  7. that was backside snow that often gets mentioned but rarely occurs Of course people's expectations were much higher than just some backside snow. We had 5" here in SW Nassau, I think Patchogue got a foot? That was the highest amount I saw mentioned on Long Island. SW CT got a lot more.
  8. I dont get why the wind didn't hit here since we're all east of the storm track....but tornado warnings were really close.
  9. More than yearly...we just had an event like this a couple of weeks ago lol
  10. Yes, that was my marker for power outages and tree damage, but it's not as bad anymore (of course we dont have leaves on the trees anymore either). Isaias caused a lot of damage though, but that was 70+....winds that strong will still cause a lot of damage
  11. There were several reports of tornadoes where I am right now in Eastern PA, the sky was a nasty green color.
  12. Yes I have high hopes for future generations as it seems like they have a sense of urgency the rest are lacking. And by future I mean like within the next 5-10 years lol
  13. Thanks Walt! Do you think the impact and winds will be similar to what we went through last week and will it also be similar in NE PA?
  14. Chris what was number 1? I know number 2 was 2007. Also do you think we'll have the top warmest November?
  15. He is the shining light here, he recognizes that the Paris Treaty is now out of date and we need much faster action now and stronger penalties for those nations who dont. This is a sad commentary, but the rising number of climate catastrophes and their multibillion dollar costs is actually a good thing as it is going to motivate conservatives and so-called moderates in states like Louisiana and Florida to faster action. The more disasters we have and the faster they occur the better for the changes we need. Ditto for pandemics and getting universal healthcare. Sad commentary on the state of this country but this is where we are.
  16. wow a bit more tepid than Jan 2015....but Mar 01 is considered the bigger bust?
  17. We hope they will, but it's going to be a wait and see attitude because some of the people on their transition team have connections to the fossil fuel cartel. Cedric Richmond and Moniz in particular. It's been talked about before. Richmond was one of a few Democrats who voted to authorize the Keystone XL pipeline.[18] He is the fifth-biggest recipient of money from fossil fuel donors among House Democrats. The League of Conservation Voters gave him one of the lowest ratings for any Democrat in Congress.[19] https://www.thedailybeast.com/joe-biden-appoints-fossil-fuel-ally-cedric-richmond-as-his-climate-movement-liason
