  1. The morning KOKX AFD mentioned the possibility: Confidence in thunder is low, but with some elevated CAPE, it can not be ruled out. Some CAMs also continue to show a convective line moving through the area this afternoon into the early evening. Given the possibility of this line, strong southeast winds this afternoon and then strong northwest winds again behind this system tonight, decided to go with a Wind Advisory for the whole area. Although gusts will be marginal (mainly isolated 45 to 50 mph) soaked grounds will make it easy for trees to be downed.
  2. Wind advisories posted area wide late tonight and tomorrow for gusts up to 55mph. In other news, I’m in Westbury LI and there is graupel falling mixed with rain. Car thermometer showing 45 degrees.
  3. Quite foggy outside. Wonder why NWS didn’t put out a dense fog advisory for parts of the area. Or did they?
  4. 1.32 inches so far at my station here in southern Brooklyn.
  5. 8 inches at my house in Sheepshead Bay so pretty consistent along the southern areas of Brooklyn
  6. Just measured 8 inches on the picnic table here in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn. We just got into the northern fringe of that heavy band overnight.
  7. Got to be at least 4 inches judging from the cameras outside my house here in southern Brooklyn
  8. Hearing pingers on the window a/c here in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn. 37/31
  9. Definitely more tidal flooding today than the last storm. Meadowbrook Pky, Wantagh Pky near Jones Beach under water. Parts of Howard Beach and Broad Channel under water along with a couple of blocks of Cross Bay Blvd in Queens. Edit: Island Park LIRR station also flooded.

  11. Almost the entire eastern U.S. east of the Mississippi is covered with some kind of precipitation, snow, rain and severe in the south. Not a very common occurrence. Gives you an idea of the dynamics/moisture with this system.
