    Yeah these frontal events always seem to underperform when it comes to rainfall totals
  2. Intensewind002
    Gusting up to around 30 for the most part in the past hour or so here, there have been a few up to 35 mph, highest so far, 36 mph. Temperature is steady at about 56.5 F
  3. Intensewind002
    Currently 56 here, temp has been steady for the past few hours. It's already pretty gusty out, as high as 36 mph already for me

    True, there was actually one near me that uprooted in last weeks storm, luckily I don't have a lot of evergreen trees on my block so I should be alright. The last time I saw widespread deciduous trees fall in the winter was back during the March 2010 storm, but I doubt the wind will be that bad here.

    I'm not expecting to lose power here. Even with if the winds are actually as strong as indicated, if I didn't lose power in TS Isaias then i probably won't on Christmas. My dad and I got the generator ready just in case though...

    Yeah we had pretty crappy visibility out in suffolk county as well, kinda disappointed...

    I forgot to post my final totals before I fell asleep earlier lol. Front half, before the changeover to sleet I received 4.7" and I picked up another 1.6" from the back side of the storm, so overall total is 6.3" of snow. I also got 1.1" of sleet between the 2 layers of snow. Highest wind gust I recorded was exactly 50 mph at around 7 am. Between 5:30 and 7:00 this morning I had near-blizzard conditions with wind consistently gusting into the 40s and moderate to heavy snow

    Moderate snow and breezy in Lindenhurst, picked up about 1.5" so far and temp is holding steady at 29. Highest wind gust I've recorded is 27 mph.

    I'm still excited, just a bit skeptical after the last couple winters. Hopefully it actually does become what the models are currently advertising and the positive trends continue

    Ill believe it when the warnings go up and okx forecasts those totals, until then it's still a dream for me

    I have it on the roof of my aunt and uncles house, I was originally gonna put on the roof of my parents but my house is only 20 ft tall. Her house is about to 30 ft tall or so so it's closer to the official height the nws recommends. As for the good measurements, I thought maybe it's because they live by the water. It definitely helps with southerly winds. They also don't have a lot of trees on their block that obstruct the measurements (another reason I asked if i could place it there). I also thought there might be a chance it over estimates the wind a little but idk.

    Saw a couple of sloppy flakes mix in but other than those few, nothing. Total rainfall is 1.22", while my highrst wind gust today was 39 mph
  13. Intensewind002
    Ive gotten about .76" of rain so far. Wind is just starting to pick up
  14. Intensewind002
    Yeah I guess everyone has that one storm that busted that they despise, for me personally it's probably march 2017, if i remember correctly okx predicted 18" a day or 2 before the storm for western long island and we got 2-3" before it changed to rain. Of course that wasn't as bad of a bust as Jan 2015 though
  15. Intensewind002
    I didn't realize how bad January 2015 was for a lot of my fellow nyc metro weenies until I first started browsing weather forums a few years ago...... It might be my 3rd favorite storm after Jan 2016 and Feb 2013

    Does anyone remember the Valentine's Day storm in 2015? We had a blizzard warning in effect in suffolk county and then I remember waking up to like half an inch of snow. Eastern New England cashed in though, the model trends yesterday reminded me of that a little, albeit for the most part they're not all that similar
  17. Intensewind002
    I'm only 20 so I've been spoiled my whole life lol
  18. Intensewind002
    I think this is the 4th year in a row now up north got crushed while we got a cold windy rain, March 2017, March 2nd 2018, December 2019, and possibly this weekend now

    Pretty good wind event today, highest gust I had in batch #1 (12pm - 3pm) was 51 mph, then there was a slight lull (winds were still gusting 35-40 mph though), then in Batch #2 (5 pm - 6:30 pm) I recorded some more high winds including a peak gust of 53 mph. Final rainfall total for the event is .93"
  20. Intensewind002
    Got some pretty high gusts with these heavy showers moving through before including one to 53 mph
  21. Intensewind002
    That 60 mph gust at Farmingdale Airport was right around the time I recorded a 51 mph gust in lindenhurst (1:53 pm)
  22. Intensewind002
    Yep, only times there are widespread outages on LI now is when gusts approach hurricane force. Not that I'm complaining or anything though lol. Ever since the one-two-three punch of the March 2010 noreaster, Irene, and Sandy, it's been like that
  23. Intensewind002
    @psv88 Actually looking back at my comments on the thread from the last wind event, my peak gust was 51 mph with that one, not 53, so same as today
  24. Intensewind002
    53 mph, I think overall both events peaked at a similar level
  25. Intensewind002
    Some really strong gusts within the past 2 hours here, highest one I recorded was 51 mph. Picked up about .68" of rain so far
