  1. @LibertyBell I love your contributions here, but the multi-quote feature is a beautiful thing.
  2. I am cool with this and will be encouraged if we see signs of blocking early on!
  3. Wow it had slowed down (relatively-speaking) on Roosevelt Island, but it suddenly went right back to insanity. What an event!
  4. Been thinking the same thing all weekend. Would be absolutely glorious to get a nice, ol fashioned long-duration snow event. Feels like forever since we’ve seen one!
  5. Sweet, elusive backlash….rains
  6. Chris, to your knowledge, has there ever been another decade of warm Septembers like this? The trend is so pronounced that people who don’t obsess over the weather like us seem to be noticing.
  7. Reminds me of Irene in 2011. Once her inner core was disrupted, she was kind of a mess of a cyclone that couldn’t get it together as she crawled up the EC.
  8. I see this “mind of their own” trope often, but I don’t understand it. Don’t deeper cyclones tend to move more poleward? IIRC, Irma defied the models (biased toward that climatologically-favored outcome in their longer ranges) because an anomalously-robust ridge to her north forced her south of due west at one point. Not saying that can’t happen again, of course. But if it does, I do wonder if it’ll be because Lee to be has a “mind of his own.”
  9. I don’t think the EC becomes a possibility unless and until we see either: (1) south of due west motion; and/or (2) a center reformation to the south (unlikely, given the low shear environment). If any of these occur, then I’ll be interested in it as something more than a swell generator.
  10. 100% this!! Usually, it’s the thunder that stirs me from my sleep. Never been woken up by lightning alone until last night!!
  11. First time in my life awakened by lightning and not thunder (and through closed shades to boot)! Excellent storm!
  12. Sitting in the city very skeptical. I’m hoping for something interesting, but I can’t help but feel like it’s all gonna fizzle.
  13. Heavy rain in Northport (LI)! Hardest I’ve seen it rain in awhile!
  14. Nice CTG lightning strike right over Manhattan just now. Pouring as well!
  15. I’m still waiting for last winter to start as well……
  16. Never seen anything like this. Manhattan smells like a campfire and the sky over it is an almost catoyant dark orange.
  17. I am not gonna complain. Would love to see some severe wx (which we only seem to get during the winter months now anyway), but I am loving the lack of humidity!
  18. Aside from driving blizzard conditions, this is some of the best weather for a late-night walk. If you’ve got a few mins to spare, do it!
  19. Some serious pingers outside my 47th-floor window in Manhattan!
  20. Was probably the particulates from the wildfires filtering the sunlight you were seeing.
  21. I’m traveling to Albany for work this week. Might be my only chance to see more than 1/2” of snow on the ground this winter. What a ratter of a season.
  22. Just walked through a Brooklyn neighborhood I haven’t visited since January 2014. Got some serious tundra nostalgia. Hoping we get locked into another pattern like that during my lifetime!
  23. I feel like it’s so late in the game that, at most, this’ll just mean that the weather is more spring-like now than it will be after the equinox (i.e., follow up our craptastic winter with a(nother) dreary, damp spring).
  24. See for me, 13–14 was closer to an A winter because of the entrenched cold. I’ll take slightly less snowfall if it sticks around for longer periods of time. The snowstorm with single-digit temps in January 2014 was a huge plus too.
