  1. Made it down to 23 at my station and the leaves of the Ginko tree are tumbling down.
  2. Long Island Parkways were salted too. I was traveling west on the Southern State Parkway through Suffolk and Nassau and saw NYS DOT salt spreaders laying down salt. At least in Suffolk County the roads were wet and there was light snow falling. In Nassau the road was dry and they were spreading salt. I'm sure the LI Expy was also treated.
  3. Some streets already pre-salted here in Brooklyn. It’s 57 degrees. Don’t think we are having a flash freeze. It’s not even raining yet
  4. It's official. NYC Sanitation has issued a "snow alert" for tomorrow for a coating of snow DSNY Issues ‘Snow Alert’ for Tuesday, November 12, 2019 at 10 a.m. The New York City Department of Sanitation has issued a Snow Alert for Tuesday, November 12, 2019 at 10 a.m. In a snow alert, DSNY coordinates with NYC Emergency Management and the Department of Transportation on snow clearing protocol in accordance with each agency’s written snow plan. All relevant city agencies have been notified of the snow alert. DSNY will continue to monitor forecasts and will provide updates as the snow event approaches.
  5. I have a fully green Ginkgo directly in front of my house. Temp only got down to 29 here last night. Leaves still on the tree. Last year it was green but we had a freeze with temps in the mid 20s and all the green leaves came down over the next day or so. Guess it wasn’t quite cold enough here. Maybe Tue night gets it done this upcoming week.
  6. Frost on the cars here in Brooklyn. First of the season. 42 air temp.
  7. KOKX AFD Updated at 8:33pm: NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/... Severe thunderstorm watch 691 is in effect until 1 am for NE NJ and the Lower Hudson Valley. A low topped line of convection is approaching along the strong cold front across upstate NY and eastern PA. The line of convection should enter northern NJ and the Lower Hudson Valley 02-04z and then quickly move east towards the Hudson River Corridor. Instability is marginal, but strong low-level flow and shear may help bring down severe wind gusts in the low topped convection. It is entirely possible that no lightning is observed when this line moves through. High resolution models indicate the line weakens as it approaches the NYC metro and then the remnants of the line race across Long Island and southern Connecticut. The strong low level jet, 65-75 kt at 925 mb will cross eastern portions of the area this evening and into the overnight. Despite the weakening of the convection, these strong winds just above the surface may come down with turbulent mixing with the frontal passage 06 to 08z east of the city. It may be difficult to mix some of the higher winds above the surface down initially with inversion observed on the 00z OKX sounding. However, gusts gradually increase this evening as winds at the top of the mixed layer are around 50 kt. Could still see gusts over 45 mph before the actual front and stronger momentum arrives. Wind headlines have not changed since previous forecast. Strongest winds still appear likely across eastern Long Island and southeast Connecticut where the high wind warning remains in effect. Locally heavy rainfall is possible, but the best chance of seeing this is likely across the Lower Hudson Valley and NE NJ, with weakening of the line of showers thereafter. Rainfall amounts are likely to drop off significantly across Long Island and southern Connecticut. Temperatures in the mid to upper 60s with some low 70s possible ahead of the front. Temperatures will drop rapidly behind the front and could be in the 40s west of NYC and low 50s east by daybreak.
  8. Severe thunderstorm watches just posted for areas north and west of NYC
  9. As predicted, nasty looking squall line developing over west-central NY and central PA. Time will tell if it holds together once it gets to the coast. Snowing over most of the entire lower peninsula of Michigan.
