remember when we would get cool dry air behind a noreaster

Meh. It's just sitting and spinning and hasn't moved out so we're not 'behind' it yet. 

1.3 today, 3.2 total so far. 

Over .9 already today. 

1.85 Plenty of small branches and leaves but nothing of consequence. The raspberry patch is a tangled mess of flopped over plants. Even so, I managed to pull a half pound this morning.

Nothing burger in Westchester thus far. Dry slotted and winds are tame.

Hopefully it stays thru the daylight hours

I dunno, I'm 1/3 mile N of the county line and it hasn't stopped raining for more than a few minutes all day. .8 so far. Steady wind, not as strong as expected but it brought down plenty of branches. More than nothing for sure.

There are some branches down but 2 breezy days took down a lot of them. Since the edge got here last night it's been windy but mostly staying between 5-15 with some higher gusts. Rain has been showery most of the time, .4 so far. 

Looks like Sunday morning at Bethel Woods is gonna be pretty wet for the Harvest Festival. I hate when we have to prepay the vendor fee for a rain or shine event and it turns out to be a washout 

^^ That's mostly due to warm nights, right?

That steady mist and light rain left me with a .6 total. 

.55

46° Hoody weather!

Just hitting 1" now. 

That's a Vega that's not an all out rust bucket on the right. Amazing...

.4 today, 1.8 event and 1.9 for 7 days. Not as much as some but it's plenty soggy.

Like I really needed another half inch of rain. Sheesh.

I'll be at a half inch in a few minutes. 

Really heavy! ...and my idiot town hwy department just pulled in with truckloads of steaming asphalt and a paver to start the resurfacing project. 

I dunno, it's juicy out there. An hour of sun could be all it needs to pop.

That was a quick .35

edit: Make that .65

Just returned from a week in the Adirondacks; this humidity feels oppressive! Going to need 24 hours to get re-adjusted. 

I drove up Whiteface on Friday and it was 70° up top with barely a breeze. Amazing...

I wasn't home but it looks like 1.8 around my hill. Of course, I got a UPS delivery a few hours before the rain and it's still sitting there because the neighbor forgot to grab it

Might have been some breaks in the clouds to the west, but just dark, dreary and damp wall to wall here today.  MaxT was 73° which is the lowest daily maxT since July 7 (max that day was 68°).  I've no problem with a few days with the wx like this, but the mosquitoes are beyond ridiculous this month.  Little buggers are pissing me off.  It's bad when you go backpacking to get away from them.

 

I'm not sure about down on The Island but, there has been a mass die-off of bats in the Hudson Valley, over 95% of one species and I think high 70s for another. Bats eat LOTS of mosquitoes. The mosquitoes seem to love not having those predators in their world  It's called white nose syndrome and it's taking out bats all over Upstate.

Nice little storm just dropped a quick 3/4". 

I have a new spring in my driveway. Over the last year or so some of these crazy heavy rains pushed out a strip of asphalt about 3" deep and the water gushes out during downpours. 

Holy lightning and thunder Batkids! Wow...
