  1. you need to get under a band. It’s very scattered for most of us just a little drizzle or nothing at all but if one of those slow moving bands come.
  2. Nothing unflyable tonight. Not even close.

  3. Not in good years. The years have just been so shitty lately this has become the Atlanta forum getting snow
  4. This is the usual noise before a storm. Of course its going to rain…on and off for 3 days. 2 inches, 3 inches, 1 inch…To 90% of the population it makes no difference…its a 3 day weekend of indoor plans.
  5. Wasnt it 90+ for several days to start the month? When you start +15, even getting to normal is going to take a miracle
  6. Windshear already coming into JFK this afternoon around 1pm with gusts to 25 kts from SE Tomorrow is going to be fun
  7. It is very acute along the LIE from 68 east. And very bad along Willam Floyd near the lab and Route 25
  8. I think we should pay a lot of attention to which models are going to be spot on. Will give us insight this winter. This is a very winter-esque storm. I also like to see these types of storm starting to form in the fall. It gives me hope for the upcoming winter pattern. It has been sorely lacking in recent years with most of our storms cutting west.
  9. Surprised this isnt up here yet. Due to climate change, a beetle is destroying pine trees in Eastern LI. The Climate has warmed enough that the bug can now survive. Pine trees in the south are immune to it, but LI Pine Trees are not.
  10. as many as live on a big open field next to a runway
  11. The only people that dismiss a site here are those talking about a tree canopy in Central Park. all you have to do is land Newark airport and see why it’s a hot hole. Low flat slab in swampland surrounded by industry.
  12. Absolutely. Looking at grazing NS haha
  13. Sensationalist BS. You would have thought the hurricane last week was an Andrew redux headed for downtown Tampa. Everything has to be greater than it is, when what it is is great enough in terms of historic weather. Oh well. 100 today!! Except it hasnt hit 100 in a very long time because we are too humid to hit 100 now (thats the historic part but not as sexy)
  14. 61F here. Put on long sleeves for the dog walk haha
  15. Because the catastrophic storm that shut down the whole west coast of Florida was a relatively small, fast mover that hit rural swampland. I imagine GA and SC get it worse
  16. i hope this 2 week dry stretch pans out. cant take this rain anymore. if you live in trees, everything is perpetually wet and moldy.
  17. Wasn’t this always supposed to be a weaker hurricane that had sheer issues holding back intensification? I remember saying this like four days ago. I know it got hyped up in the last 48 hours but this is playing out exactly as planned.
  18. Couldnt be better for Tampa metro on current track. Another dodge
  19. We dont. Just records. As he said, climate isnt static. The 30 year rolling normal gives you a short-term perspective. The all time records that date back since the 1880s give you a a longer short-term perspective. None of them even come close to giving us a medium term or long term perspective. 400 years from now, people will have much better historical data dating back much longer than our generation had. We finally have a BN summer month. 30 years ago this would have been a summer with little AC use. A noticeable change just in our lifetimes. But nonetheless, still over a short term reference
  20. This should have been a 95 esque summer. Humidity in new climate ruined that
  21. anybody else have like a black soot all over their leaves and outdoor plastic? I noticed the swing set looking particularly gross, and I went down to look at it and thought it was mold, but it isn’t mold. It almost looks like soot from the wildfires but I’m not sure. On closer inspection the leaves have it too. Wipes right off
  22. considering we haven’t had extended 100s in many years, I would say the GFS is full of shit. I think that would also be the third time this summer they tried to give us 100s
  23. I like seasonal trends. Best way to predict where we are heading short/medium term. Your post is a good description of summer thus far. Considering we are on a march to September at this point, we can start counting down the days when extended 90s arent possible. I imagine if this was 30 years ago, with lower humidity levels, this would be a cooler than normal summer.
