I know it won’t be as bad but this is reminding me of the August 2014 event that dropped 13” at ISP. Everyone’s phones just started buzzing for the Flash Flood Warning.

1.17” with nearly 2” per hour rates. Edit: 1.47” with 3” per hour rates just 3 minutes later. Edit again: 1.90” with 5” per hour rates. Possibly a record for my PWS.

Just started pouring here, already up to .20”, an inch+ with this batch should be possible as it’s aimed directly at me. 78 degree low getting destroyed though.
-
79/78. High was 88, low was 74. DP hit 80. Rain missed me to the northeast earlier.
-
That little split was heading this way and it filled in at the last minute.
-
Sky looks 8:30 PM in Bohemia.
-
0.29”, heaviest downpour in ages, wish it lasted longer. Inside the newly issued Special Weather Statement box but I doubt I’ll see anything more, everything looks just to the north.
-
Finally scoring, heaviest rain in months here. CG strike about 30 feet away too, instant thunder, phone notification 10 seconds later.

Is the heat wave criteria of three consecutive days of 90 local to our region? Or is it a general rule? I’m on my second heat wave in a week (and this year), 90’s barely even stand out anymore they almost feel average. Maybe 4 or 5 consecutive days or a threshold higher than 90 would be more fitting. 88 now, down from 90. Clouding up in Garden City, PWS still showing full sun in Suffolk.
-
High of 96 here, highest of the year, currently 87.
-
94, humidity slowly creeping back up.
-
92 here too.
-
I lucked out with 0.97”, total would’ve been less than half of that without one of those tiny pop up showers yesterday.
-
91 today makes it a heat wave. 95, 93, 91
-
Wouldn’t we get a drier heat under such a setup?
-
90/75/100. High so far is 93. If we can squeeze out another 90 tomorrow that’ll be the first heat wave of the season.
-
95/67 split today.
-
Sunny drizzle here, rumbles of thunder to the southeast.
-
Sun’s out and the temp spiked to 86. DP in the upper 70’s.
-
Interesting.
-
First 70+ low of the year here with 71, it’s currently 77 so there’s no way it doesn’t hold. Gotten close a few times before but this is the first. High of 93.
-
I wonder how these storms usually manage to sustain themselves well off Jersey Shore but they die out everywhere else. The east end is also a sneaky little hot spot.

Extended summer stormlover74 future snow hole banter thread 23
Cfa replied to BxEngine's topic in New York City Metro
I never hear anyone mention how gloomy it is Upstate. I’d go nuts. We actually do quite well relative to the rest of Mid-Atlantic states, only coastal SE Virginia is sunnier. I’m assuming the greater atmospheric stability near the coast inhibits cloud formation to an extent.
-
I swear I see more lightning to the north over the sound or south over the ocean than I ever do over land here. Outflow incoming, maybe we’ll see a few puffs of a breeze. I hate it here.
