...STRAIGHT-LINE WIND DAMAGE ACROSS LONG ISLAND...
A line of severe thunderstorms move across Long Island last night.
These storms produced tree damage and power outages to portions
of the south shores of Eastern Nassau and the western half of
Suffolk County. Doppler radar and observational analysis support
the damage being consistent with straight line winds and
downbursts. There was no evidence of rotation with the storms and
no damage surveys are planned.

Yesterday I couldn't get to 90, only got to 89.2. I'm sure we'll get another 2 or 3 days of 90 before the front moves through on Thursday. The S wind depending on strength makes it a struggle to get 90.
I’m happy for the bust. Still have my dirt pit for a backyard and I don’t want mud flows. Waiting on sprinkler guy and then sod to go down. Once OKX put their tweet out showing 2” qpf for area, you knew the models would back off. Never fails with them.
Yep hit a wall and then died once they moved this way. Typical, like so many times, and the flood advisory issued by OKX at 11:08 doesn’t look good either.
