November 1989 was my very first experience with tornado watches and what looked like funnel clouds in the area.  The winds were unbelievable in that event.

 

That outbreak produced an f4 in connecticut I believe. I think it also produced the strongest ever tornado on record on long island which was an f2

edit: actually that was July 1989 I was thinking a totally different outbreak that same year

Wow that one actually looks pretty large and violent…

Also that other supercell that was in CNJ earlier is still holding it’s own way out by Nantucket

Wow I dont think I’ve ever seen a supercell embedded in a mass of heavy rain like that before

At about .10” in my backyard, here in albany it’s about the same

Serious damage in Grand Isle:

 

Grand isle only got brushed by the inner eyewall too which is kinda crazy

0.05” both in Lindenhurst and here in albany. I guess LI got dry slotted today?

It looks like I might see more rain here in albany than back at home on long island. I haven’t really been tracking ida since landfall so i honestly didn’t realize the heavy rain had trended north

NJ has become a mini tornado alley in the past few years

Issac should've been retired too, the I curse lives on

Isaias, Imelda and Isaac are some of the costliest storms not to be retired

Indirect deaths are what Maria and Katrina were best at producing. I am not sure “direct” deaths is a meaningful thing. 

According to a study i found, 386 deaths were directly attributed to Katrina’s storm surge, in Louisiana specifically. So it would probably be around 400-500 if you include other states… With Maria 1/10th was attributed directly to the hurricane so around 300. I believe that still makes them the worst modern US hurricanes though even without indirect deaths. 
 

edit: Agnes is the only other US storm i found with over 100 direct deaths since 1970

Yeah this one is being retired for sure. You gotta admit that "Ida" just seemed like an old fashioned badass name for a hurricane and it lived up to the name.  I wonder what the "I" replacement name is-I hope it is not lame.

 

*I just looked it up...I hope it was wrong...it said the replacement name is "Izzy". ???

 

*huh..."I" storms have had the most names retired of any letter.

Yeah we’re starting to get into names no one ever new existed territory with I storms

This one could probably cause some issues for swimmers on the east coast. Hopefully people heed the rip current warnings

Dont rely on NWS radars. Get myRadar! Its free and looks great! I use it all the time!

Sorry NWS, no disrespect intended to you, but I found a better radar!

All radar apps use NWS doppler radar 

New advisory has storm down to Cat 1: 95 mph, 960 mb, headed nnw at 9 mph. I don't think I've ever seen a storm initialized with that intensity before, unless it was a glitch....

Katrina, Harvey, Maria, that storm that shall not be named in the Mid-Atlantic/NE area, and Irma if you are talking about $$$ damages are the top five I think.  This would need to be over 50 billion.

He's probably going by by normalized damage, which puts Katrina, Andrew, and Maria at 1, 2 , 3

Wow, might be the first time we've ever seen grounds obs record the maximum sustained winds

So even though the Jokko guy has said some incorrect things, he is positioned in outer eyewall right now, and in perfect spot to get hit with inner eyewall shortly, at which point he really could really see those 150+ mph winds. https://www.severestudios.com

He's in a better position than any other chaser. 

Hopefully he makes it out alright, I’m presuming elevation probably isn’t more than 10-20 ft about sea level where he’s at

This jokko williams clown is full of garbage. He does NOT have 156 MPH sustained winds and gusts to 200.

Yeah I shut it off after he said that, his car would be in the air with winds that strong, maybe take 100 mph off 

Holy shit wasn’t this thing a 85 kt cat 2 when I went to sleep 8 hours ago…

Only 6.81” of rain on the month for me but 4.86” in the last week. Today will probably add another inch to the monthly total
