    Wow. Shit’s about to get real in Long Beach/Freeport.
  2. guinness77
    For some reason I put on the Weather Channel. Man, they have people in all the wrong places.

    Happy birthday! I’m on Sunday. Haha, never snows on mine either.

    Nassau County is catching that whole line. Yikes.
  5. guinness77
    lol, want to sleep, but…I don’t think so, want to see this. Looks like we’re catching the southern part of that squall.

    Lol, just got home. Sounds like a train coming down my street. Ain’t putting the recycling out tonight. Even with bricks on top of the cans, I don’t trust them to not end up all over the street.

    https://radar.weather.gov/station/kdix/standard Squall line looks like a literal snake. Wow.

    Can’t really tell the wind being on the train but the rain is really ripping in the Rockville Centre area. Absolutely pouring.

    With the system’s backend already clearing DC, any chance this system and the worst of the gusts maybe end a little earlier in the AM than forecasted? Not looking forward to driving in about 45 minutes.

    Winds from the southeast already picking up a bit when I left earlier for work, just as forecasted. Secured anything I could. I’m still kinda flabbergasted a storm like this hits us early-to-mid January but this is becoming the new normal around here. Im thinking these 65-70mph gusts will materialize around me later. Good luck, everyone.

    Isaias was the push for me to make an account on this board after years and years of lurking. I did not lose power, somehow, here but there was definite damage in my neighborhood and I was working at Huntington train station at the time and the LIRR didn’t have power until like midnight. That doesn’t happen often. @WestBabylonWeather I’m pretty sure you’re not far from me looking at your pics. I’m just west of Belmont.

    lol, yep. Got the same exact txt. Saw 75mph and was like wtf Could go to Mt. Washington…100-110 sustained with 140mph gusts on Wednesday night.
  13. guinness77
    From what I’ve read here and seen other places, I’m expecting 60mph-plus gusts, 30-40 sustained by nighttime. Definitely expecting a HWW. NWS is only listing winds up to Tuesday afternoon. I’m not looking forward to it.
  14. guinness77
    I don’t know about hurricane gusts, but @wdrag has mentioned damaging winds as part of Tuesday’s storm for days now. I’ve been telling anyone who’ll listen to me (here on LI at least) that Tuesday night is the storm to be concerned about, not yesterday.
  15. guinness77
    Thank you for all the useful info, especially @wdrag This thread is hitting 50 pages before Saturday, lol, can just feel it.

    Didn’t see anything about wind in the forecast and we got gusts around 40mph earlier and we’re pushing 30-35 now. Garbage day around here, there’s shit all over my street. I guess NWS doesn’t think 40mph gusts should be noted in the forecast or this was just not expected? Oh yeah, still pissing rain. Lots of big, cold, drops.
  17. guinness77
    I’m on the train so I can’t tell for certain with the wind, doesn’t seem too windy looking at the trees, but it’s absolutely pouring in the Massapequa area again.
  18. guinness77
    Went outside to find and pick shit up and, granted, the siding on the east facing side of my garage is old, but a pretty significant amount of it blew off.
  19. guinness77
    Port Wash branch of LIRR partially suspended due to fallen trees. I’d call that fairly significant, especially given the time of year.
  20. guinness77
    Raining fairly hard by me atm but looks like Sayville/Patchogue (about 25-30 minutes east of me) about to take it on the chin.
  21. guinness77
    Wow. December lightning. Pretty close to the house too.
  22. guinness77
    Haven’t looked outside yet but the wife tells me our porch chairs are across the street (I put long bricks on the them), our garbage cans are MIA, and our basketball net is on its side. Dont worry though, Bumble is still upright. Winds had dropped a bit since those winds around 4 or 5am but I got a wicked squall coming through now and it’s very windy again.
  23. guinness77
    It’s funny, I looked at a bunch of wind models a little earlier and despite what we’re supposed to get, the strongest winds still appear to be off coast, and later. But, you see the ticks west, and that’s never a good sign, wind-wise.
  24. guinness77
    I had 7 trees when we bought our house 15 years ago. I’m down to 1. That explains why I hate wind. One of them hit my roof, put a hole in it, bounced off and destroyed my porch too. Insult to injury, one of the branches was long enough to shatter the windshield of my car.
  25. guinness77
    Yep, don’t like that at all.
