High of 82. Currently you 78. Literally perfect.

1.08” so far today. 2.78” event total.

Sky clearing out, I can finally see the moon.

Just seen a double (possibly triple) strike CG in Holtsville (LIE exit 62) near Top Golf, very close strike as I could sort of see behind it while driving. Poured for a minute, now moderate rain with occasional CG’s.

1.38” current storm total. Winds have relaxed a bit so it feels mildly less terrible than it has felt for the last 4 days, sky brightening up at times but never fully clearing out.

Currently 56 (and slowly rising) which is the high for the day.

0.10” and it feels like December (but with deep green foliage).

0.73” and counting. Most impressive pure thunderstorm event of the year so far for me.

There's probably going to be trees down in Islandia and Central Islip. 

And that area floods almost as bad as the immediate south shore.

Made it home with literally 40 seconds to spare. Absolutely pouring with CTG’s raining down.

It’s good to see the NHC learned from Sandy by issuing Hurricane Warnings for Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.

Front pushing in, it’s 68 here and 62 at a relative’s house <2 miles west.

Very loud, Florida-like thunder with some of these lightning bolts.

Only 0.23” but better than nothing.

I wouldn't doubt it a month ago but now the average high is about 75 with lower sun angle.

We recently had mid 90’s in October. Newark also hit 80 in February a few years back.

Not the same circumstances, but I’ve come to never say never.

Bottomed out at 50. That was a close one.

Feels not so good outside rn.

Tiny cell northeast of Bridgeport (and 25+ miles nw of me) illuminated by the setting sun. My iPhone didn’t do the colors much justice.
 

1.43” from this round. I’m shocked.

1.25” storm total, honestly much more than I expected.

September so far is already close to my total for all of August.

0.69” so far. Under a band now w/ rates just under half an inch per hour.

0.41” which is better than nothing.

Only 0.16” so far. I got lucky yesterday with 0.62” but with 4” per hour rates much of it ends up running off.

Long Island is molting into Aruba.

I got lucky with 0.62”, I very nearly got nothing.

Steam bath now with dews in the deep 70’s and temps in the 80’s.

Topped out at 88. Currently 76.

50th 90 for ewr

DCA only at 38.

I just realized August 1st (high of 75) spoiled what would’ve been an 18-day 90+ stretch for me, and had both August 1st and 10th (high of 89) hit 90 that could’ve been a 20-day stretch.

Insane.

Topped out at 90, if only yesterday did the same (hit 89) this would’ve been a heat wave (for the millionth time this summer).
