I really can not understand the glibness and stupidity of tweets like this. This is alarming, no cause for celebration/unwinding. your city's going to be underwater in the not so distant future dude

Clouds are back at JFK and hoping for some more rain tonight

I'm giddy

A quarter to half inch would still be really appreciated here

My concerns about the flash drought- and I'm near JFK- were in regards to vegetation. for everyone dismissing that, it's really important, too. Luckily most young trees seemed to make it through this one, and more rain this week is extremely welcome too. Just because it didn't affect the water supply doesn't mean it was/is something to shake off- I'm still pretty concerned about the tree canopy.

Who knew my first post could lead to such enlightenment

Long time lurker here but the drought made me come out of the woodwork. JFK just had its first accumulating rain in nearly a month. Where is the rest of the precipitation for the next 36 hours coming from?
