Cfa

Had some thunder and lightning this morning, not much though. 2.20” here.

Ok that was arguably the heaviest rains I’ve ever driven, it stripped away the remaining RainX off the windshield, and there are literal lakes on the sides of the LIE, never seen that before. Had to launch through flood waters just to get home, no other route (because Suffolk...). 2.08” so far, highest daily total by far this year, but it’s the short time frame that makes it more notable.

1.27” so far. Expecting to see over 2 inches here.

0.29” so far here, no heavy rains yet, should reach here in 10-15 minutes. Under a Flash Flood Warning now.

NYC, LI’s south shore, and the jersey shore are one of the warmest spots on the east coast right now north of the Outer Banks. Low of 61 here, currently 74. 83/59 yesterday.

Almost identical here, 88/71 today, 80/68 yesterday.

85/67 here. I can take this all year round.

Low of 58 here, first low in the 50’s since June 17th, which also had a low of 58.

Mostly sunny here today, made it up to 83.

OKX, despite its relatively diminutive area compared to other forecasting offices, spans 4 climate classifications: Cfa (subtropical) Cfb (oceanic) Dfa (continental: hot summer) Dfb (continental: warm summer)

88/69 split today. 92/66 yesterday.

I’m always leery with Enhanced Risks, my reasoning is purely anecdotal but they always seem to bust (for us) in some capacity. My expectations for all severe thunderstorm threats are always at zero, so the light show was a pleasant surprise. I could really use some rain though because I was largely spared yesterday. My rain gauge was jammed so collection stopped at 0.01”, in reality my total rainfall couldn’t have been much more than that, probably ~0.10” at best. Soil moisture was 45% yesterday, it’s currently 56%.

A lot of lightning but not I’m not getting much rain. Only 0.01” so far from the previous round.

91/73 (HI 100). Didn’t think we’d make it.

80 here, stark contrast from yesterday’s 94 and tomorrow’s 90’s.

I got excited for a split second, should’ve known better.

Fairly large Severe Thunderstorm Warning in Suffolk for a relatively small cell. Looks odd.

I’d normally start feeling depressed around this time, but that was before September was upgraded to an official summer month.

Though being in Long Island requires one to have the lowest expectations in the region, I really appreciate these discussions/threads. Cell exiting The Bronx is heading my way, we’ll see what happens with that.

Yeah, I was expecting temps to level off at around 90 but it kept on going.

This is like our third or fourth time being in the “cone” this hurricane season, I’m impressed.

93 here, warmest temp so far this August.

90+ 2018: 17 (max of 99) 2019: 14 (max of 98) 2020: 25 (max of 97) 89’s 2018: 6 2019: 9 2020: 2 86+ (30°C) 2018: 38 2019: 38 2020: 44 70+ lows 2018: 40 (max min of 77) 2019: 19 (max min of 78) 2020: 32 (max min of 80)

High of 92, low of 75 today. I have to tally up my 90+ days, but I can say there have been way less 89’s this summer compared to the previous two. I hate 89’s.

89 here, if it weren’t for yesterday’s clouds this could’ve potentially been day 3 of a 4 day heat wave.
