  1. 0.43” for the month so far. Grass turning brown again for the umpteenth time this year. If I owned a house here I’d be big on xeriscaping, summer rainfall is far too inconsistent.
  2. 75/74 here this morning, rain missed me to the north and the south, that’s been the theme lately. I wouldn’t mind if we received a full blown hurricane, I’m so bored.
  3. Very tropical looking sunset. This is my first time taking the ferry between LI and CT. The air feels warmish but the wind is making it slightly chilly (but bearable).
  4. Looked a lot like this storm wanted to spawn a tornado.
  5. Sky lighting up to the north from those storms way up in central/northern CT.
  6. Have we ever seen a major hurricane stay in one spot for as long as this one has? This is basically Dorian right now:
  7. My only ice storm memory is of the Jan 1999 ice storm in the DC area, it was serious, the landscape looked very alien, all trees and power lines sagged in ways I’d never seen (and still haven't seen again), I recall one power line encased in thick ice dangling right in front of the window just a few feet away. This event was also my earliest weather memory.
  8. I hit 105 in Queens, highest temperature I’ve ever experienced. Newark (and maybe LGA) is definitely going to hit 110 one of these days. Old Bridge, NJ hit 110 back in 1936.
  9. I felt it, I thought I was off balance initially but I noticed clothes hangers swaying back and forth. Swaying not nearly as noticeable as the 2011 quake, that was enough to wake me up out of my sleep.
  10. The sheer amount of green leaves left is astonishing. The landscape is still 50%+ green in many spots and we’re in the second half of November.
  11. I super-hate early sunsets, we’re too far east in this time zone. It’d be nice if we could keep Eastern Daylight Time year round, but the U.S. government doesn’t allow year round DST, only opting out of DST. Making the switch to Atlantic Standard Time year round would solve that problem, multiple New England states have recently proposed switching.
  12. It feels like I haven’t looked at a radar since Maria made landfall in PR. I couldn’t even remember where the RadarScope app was located on my phone’s home screen.
  13. I’m legitimately cold. It’d be nice if the sun came out.
  14. So weird seeing people riding jet skis in October.
  15. The universe is certainly making up for that lackluster spring and summer. I’m not mad at all.
  16. Am I the only one that hit 90 yesterday before everything went downhill? I noticed some wunderground stations did as well, however it's still strange.
