Water temps are above average but not overly so, the worst departures are east of New England last I saw. The southerly winds however will definitely warm up the waters quicker. It’s counterintuitive but onshore flow days that cool the coast down actually warms the water faster than offshore flow days that cause upwelling. In the next couple decades it may be normal to start seeing 80F dewpoints here. 

Funny, I was just looking at this. The Buoy outside the harbor entrance is ~65. Lower than the ~67 yesterday.  The buoy 30 miles south Islip is ~71. It looks like there is some nearshore upwelling you can see on the satellite images. I am assuming that is from waves/chop along the beaches. 15 years ago I would say 70 is warm for late June. Now I feel like its expected.

Oh their here on the S shore

I hate to say it but I gave in and have the mosquito guys come and spray every couple weeks. It’s the only thing that works. I tried growing lemon grass, I tired using one of those propane powered traps. None of it worked. It got so bad I would get 3-4 bites just walking the garbage to the curb. 

Pea sized hail in Seaford earlier.  We don’t get much hail here. That was pretty intense for a couple minutes.  Funny thing is the last time I saw any Hail was in April as well.

This was one of the biggest 15 minute and 1 hour temperature rises that I have seen on the South Shore. Wantagh jumped from 65° to 80°in only 15 minutes. The hourly temperature jump was from 57° to 80°. So our weather extremes just keep coming.

I thought my home weather station was broken when I saw the spike. 

I've gone from 62 at 3:30 to 78 now at 4:05 and winds gusting over 25. 

Couple sleet pellets mixed in along the south shore too. 

Yesterday was probably the last day I could say there was a snowpack here. Now its piles and lawns that are in the shade. The Mesonet images give a good idea of true snowcover.

Suffern- still deep winter!

Couple more weeks and it will that time of year again when a 9 SD block sits on top of us until Memorial day. 

I've got a friend down in Dallas. He grew up on LI but as you could imagine, people are freaking out down there

1.9" here in Seaford

Just got a look at that 12z Euro. That has to be about as fun of a run end to end as you could ask for.

What's in the cup, looks might tasty!?

Ahh. Its an ESB called 'Duck Boat' from a small local brewer in Amityville named Small Craft. He makes great beer. 

About 6.5" new. Total pack about 13". Super bowl in an hour and enjoying an adult beverage. I'd say its a good day. 

Sign me up for this every super bowl Sunday.

Seaford and Massapequa had over a foot as of the 150pm report so southern Nassau must have some high totals too. That second main band looks like it really nailed the area for a while. 

Yeah. I just went out to play.. uhh..shovel the snow and measured 13 inches.  Haven't had any sleet here yet either which was interesting. The snow that has been falling for the last few hours is mostly that tiny needle stuff though.

My temp quickly dropped a full degree, coldest since early this morning at 29.0, was not expecting that. Also about 10" here

Same. Came down a full degree in 20 minutes as the next band rotated in.
