At 53 I am no kid.

I went out without a jacket. You must be affected by the colder, winter temps than me. Temps in 50s don't seem too bad to me. But then again, if temps get in to mid 60s I probably will be wearing shorts.
-
Yeah that pretty much answers my question. Oys
-
More coastal flooding, plus flash flooding out of this system? The ground right now is absolutely saturated.
-
10 gallons. If that is it, you got off light. -
Yes you are correct. 16.85 inches in September 1882. If we got 8" in CP today, we would come close to the record.
-
That certainly would break the September record for rainfall. Current record is 11.85" of rain for the month.
-
4 feet on the BQE? Yikes. The rain fall rates right now must be incredible. I don't think we will break the all time record for rain for the month of September with this system, plus the 8"+ we had before it. But we probably will hit the 2nd most for the month.
-
That is some pretty hefty rain fall, just thru noon. And it is supposed to go another 18 hours after that, with varying intensity obviously, right?
-
Central park has seen 8"+ so far in September. Monthly record is something like 16.85" in I believe 1882. Do we have a shot at breaking that record with all the precip that is headed our way tonight, tomorrow, and in to Saturday AM?

Is the prevailing thought that Ophelia will be downgraded on the next advisory? Ophelia has been a huge rainmaker up and down the coast. But it doesn't look like the wind was a major factor for the most part.

No change on the 8pm advisory. 8:00 PM EDT Fri Sep 22Location: 33.3°N 76.6°WMoving: NNW at 12 mphMin pressure: 984 mbMax sustained: 70 mph

Ophelia is right over the gulf stream right now. Water will not get any warmer than that for this time of year for where it is at.
-
Is Lee already losing its tropical characteristics? I didn't think this would happen until it got further north.
-
Water vapor loop. Looks like Lee has some dry air entrained, and the eye has opened up. Lee no longer a major hurricane, it is a CAT 2 with 105mph top measured winds. Pressure still around that 950-952mb mark, but it is spreading out getting larger, causing less of a pressure gradient, and winds dropping a bit. Still very dangerous.
-
A NOAA, and AF flight are both in Lee right now. We should be getting fresh data soon.
-
952 was second pass. 953 was first.
-
953mb on first pass by hurricane hunters, AF309, up a tick from last NHC report.

Does anyone have the flight data to see if the eye of Lee is open or closed? Image courtesy of Tropical Tidbits
-
Next new moon is on Sept 14th, so the tides will be coming down from the astronomical high by the 16th. If it is a little slower, even better in that regard.
-
I think the NWS wants to get closer in to buy the hook west. Plus with the extra weather balloons they are sending up they will get a clearer look at the upper level winds, conditions.
-
eye definitely cleared out.
-
At the far edge of the HWRF range, but it has it far out to sea at hour 126.
