It was pouring rain so I couldn't see it. Though I was looking out my side door at some trees as the storm was going and then branches started getting ripped out of the trees in every direction so I ran back inside lol
-
Severe is no fun when you're on the receiving end of the damage. The September 2010 tornado passed literally above my house. It was a weak one so my house was fine but I lost so many giant trees in the neighborhood it still pisses me off to this day.
-
I searched it up because I was curious myself and someone wrote that their grandmother told them that when she was little it used to snow in May once or twice every so often. Someone else said it snows there in the 2010s as well. It can't be that rare then I guess. A week or two ago some peaks in Greece got some snow as well.
-
I can't think of anything better than dry and below normal temps lol
-
That bottom pic is great.
-
Honestly I'd rather live in an area that's a dud for wind events. Remarkably despite this I have lost plenty of huge old trees to wind. And some to the POS Emerald Ash Borer but that's not the weather's fault lol

There's some serious activity around Baltimore:

Climate models. They don't predict the weather, so they don't operate the same way as regular weather models.
-
This is the derecho version of Feb 5th 2010 for NYC and points North and East
-
if this trajectory holds then Central Park and Staten Island will get a nice rain event while eastern Queens gets basically nothing.
-
I remember as a little kid in the 90s my school would have a field day at Valley Stream State Park and the trees (oaks I think) would be covered in those hairy caterpillars. I haven't seen them in a very long time. Did they just disappear for awhile?
-
I wonder if the rain will hold to NYC
-
GEMLAM did the best with this thing compared to the other models, it has it crapping out just as it hits the coast, some rain but nothing crazy. It had this as early as 18z yesterday while other models had lightly scattered stuff:
-
This thing was modeled to crap out way west of where it is now so it will be interesting to watch what happens.
-
There is some small scattered stuff on the models, mostly north and west of the coast.
-
Where was this all winter:
-
Do these models show why the drought would shift to the plains? Like what atmospheric changes are shown that shift the drought east? Basically why would a warming world do that is what I'm asking.

We are not going to have a Florida climate here in your lifetime, or even multiple lifteimes, even if emissions continue unabated.
-
The differences between KNYC and Newark are wild in some recent years on those Memorial Day charts. In 2021 for example, Newark was 84 with a low of 66 and Central Park had a high of 70 with a low of 49? That's not possible. And in 2023 Newark was 88/70 and Central Park was 79/59? Something is off.
-
Looks like the rain overperformed for a lot of us.
-
Same here in eastern NYC, really coming down now.
-
I don't know if that's 100% true, we may not have gotten huge heatwaves in summer in the last few years but the rest of the year we have highs that are well above average all the time.
-
Nice batch moving through NYC right now. Drops are fat.
-
+1 to +3 over the warmest period on record (1991-2020) is the new normal. The next 30 year climate period coming out in 2031 is going to be an inferno.
-
I remember that because of a NE wind on the North Shore farther west on the island, we had a shallow inverted layer that kept our winds in check. I think LGA recorded the lowest gusts out of all the stations.
