Has been off and on intense downpours since just before I left for work this morning. Going to be rather ugly to attempt to get home later.

81/75 at not even 9 am, game on for heat unfortunately

Did you hit 100 in July 1995?

 

From what records I could find, no.

This is beginning to look like serious big league heat now. Maybe on one hand I can count days that ever got as hot as Monday/Tuesday are now forecasted to be. 

Not fun! 

This is gonna suck, isn’t it? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a temp/DP combo quite like 96/75

Yeah, that day. The top of one of my maples got ripped off and clipped the corner of the house causing roof damage and taking out a window. I wasn’t home when it happened but will never forget driving through downed trees and branches and having to walk to get to my house only to find it damaged. Not fun. The cell that went through my area eventually had a confirmed tornado just miles to my east. That day did the opposite for me, I dislike severe weather now. Nor’easters were always the driving force behind my weather interests anyway. 

And as insult to injury from that week, the moment I (and the town) got power back that Friday night, the furniture store in town went up in flames and burned down

It’s become something else since— what was a bank on that stretch of town road is now a brewery for instance 

Seven years ago today, the derecho that blew through sheared the porch off the house at my old place. Still probably one of the scariest days of my life but the one that re-ignited my weather interests

Back to today, 5.30" for the month and more rain incoming the next few days.

.5-1” snow here. A mildly nice surprise for this late in the going. It’s going to be washed away later anyway.

Quite remarkably, never lost power overnight

Today's winds will be the real test but with Thursday's storm more or less DOA it would at least afford crews time to get everyone restored relatively quickly

Table it until Thanksgiving. It’s time for Mets baseball.

Can't be the only one expecting big things from this group this year but that's better saved for banter threads anyhow

lower-mid 980s central pressure as of now, would mark lowest I've seen since Christmas 2022, once winds kick this is going to be a nasty affair.

Up to 35 and while the ice is sloughing/melting off, running out of time to get it all the way off. Eye testing would suggest .2-.3” on trees across my apartment complex. 

seeing reports of almost 1" ice accretion at MPO off to our SW, obviously glad that never got here

finally got above 32, need this 6-8 hour melt to actually do something halfway decent to mitigate the wind risk, but not expecting much assistance

Definite healthy accretion on these trees. Have made it to 32, at least

The most accretion I've seen so far hovers in the .3-.4 range, with everywhere else hovering right at that .1-.25 range.

22f cloudy

expecting 4-6” here with lots of ice 

We’re in identical camps here, 4-6 with right around .25” and then the winds kick up. Nasty combo all around. Getting into the 40s for even a few hours would help melt the ice to some degree, at least  

This is gonna get nasty now isn’t it

Pretty nasty look for tomorrow-overnight into Sunday with 3-6 with .1-.3 of glaze over top. Next week is the bigger fish anyway…

Upton’s snow map for the Saturday/Sunday event.

 

pretty easy sign/seal/deliver. where do I sign? elevation differences would certainly give some isolated double digits northeast of me

should be an easy 6-10" storm this weekend, and with the pattern looking rather loaded upcoming this winter might by my first shot in 4 years to meet average snows

edit: just seen the NAM, 84 hour NAM problems?

12 below at the time I woke up this morning. 0 now. Coldest reading of at least the past few winters for me.
 

at least we’re back to 30s by weekend?

Well, hello Watch for 5-9”. Just in time for my potential coldest readings since last February immediately after.

Approaching 10.5” now. Have had no internet since roughly 8 am but power, save for one brief flicker at 6 am, has held

Checked the board an hour ago and measured 4”. Elevation dependent is an understatement. I would say at 500’ you have a general 2-3” but above 1000’ there is 10+. I-84 from Middletown to port jervis is shut down. Greenville mtn is getting hammered. Buddy measured 12” up there at 1200’

Coming close to 10” here with the last gasp showers, areas all around up to 12” so your buddy’s measurement makes sense. Crazy storm overall
