    interestingly, my hot water heater provided hot water throughout the whole ordeal (nat gas). Some of my neighbors did not...not sure why....Our water heater is a couple years old.

    drying out quickly here after a foot of rain in July

    That big high over Newfoundland is trouble if a hurricane gets into the right spot...

    hopefully something changes of out of it and once the lights come back on people don't forget. Butler lost his CEO job after the 2011 disaster but there were no fines or lawsuits. There's zero excuse this go around-they should pay a penalty for sure. Inexcusable response. UI was only slightly better.

    I'd point to maintenance as a culprit-we're UI here, but I see alot of old crappy poles, trees against lines etc.

    what's the population difference b/w now and then? Does that factor in at all? Otherwise I agree-antiquated equipment or they're not doing proper upkeep. Imagine if a Cat 3 took that path?

    Too humid. You're not getting 98+ with 75-78 dews

    To me it looked like they were reactive vs proactive-out of state crews were not called in until 24-48 hours post storm-I'm sure they'll blame Covid or something but there's no excuse for that-they knew what they were looking at by Tuesday eve.

    it's amazing-nothing has changed-basically a redux of their poor response time back in the storms of 2010-2012.

    We haven't had a cold front here in weeks lol. Recember Septembers have been warm/hot...ways to go
  11. Brian5671
    I think we have entered another longer term snowless era....persistent +NAO and EPO seems to be going more and more positive

    At the worst of it I had no cell phone signal-had to drive into town-truly cut off from the world.
  13. Brian5671
    After 4 long days, power has been restored here-the tree damage is astounding-lot of hard hit microburst/tornado type damage.
  14. Brian5671
    some gusts over 50 here for sure with some squalls
  15. Brian5671
    That feeder band jumped over most of us-far eastern LI may get into it....
  16. Brian5671
    wind products on these models are almost always over done-reduce by 25 to even 50%
  17. Brian5671
    impressive winds with last night's storm-gusts to 50 with it...was like a glorified warm front moving through
  18. Brian5671
    winds ramping up here. Not much rain so far-a shower around 5am and the thunderstorm last evening
  19. Brian5671
    crazy winds here-not alot of rain
  20. Brian5671
    interestingly the 3K nam was one of the few models to show a miss to Florida's east coast.
  21. Brian5671
    I see your point but every model has that same narrow band of heavy rain....
  22. Brian5671
    Fay was like that east of the city-one firehose band and that was it....
  23. Brian5671
    classic east of track situation like we saw with Fay 3K NAM is even further west with the 2 inch rain line over the Delaware River and west
  24. Brian5671
    quick hitter on the nam-precip is done by 7-8pm tomorrow eve
  25. Brian5671
    Even cutting by 25-50% is still impressive.
