July 2025 Discussion-OBS - seasonable summer variability
LongBeachSurfFreak replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
I would have a second Manhattan project but for fusion. Problem solved. -

Yup. Sunny all day at jones beach. Sea breeze is currently about 20 knots. -
Yeah I agree with all that, climate change most certainly makes these flood disasters more likely. I’m referring more to defunding research and cloud seeding is prohibitively expensive. So there is no way it’s happening on a large scale. It was tried with hurricanes in the 50/60s with silver iodide with limited results.

That’s complete and utter bullshit. I love how there is zero explanation of how it is accomplished. Just implied that the government is aiming to effect the weather. The reality is the complete opposite. But I’m not going to go there as it touches on politics.

Allot of would depend on just how high of a rooftop. I would love to see obs from the top of the Nordstrom tower at 1550’. (Highest flat roof in nyc) Probably averages double the snowfall of the park. Not only a few degrees cooler due to height but also high enough to be out of the heat island near the ground. -

That’s actually super ideal for fireworks. The lower dews mean less smoke clogging up the sky. -

Rare day where severe is less likely in central Jersey severe ally then north and east of the city. -

That’s a pretty good sounding for around here. Someone is going to pull off damaging winds. I like the setups where storms come down from CT for the island. Some of the best wind events historically have been in that setup. -
June 2025 discussion-obs: Summerlike
LongBeachSurfFreak replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
Continuous lightning right now with the cell skirting the south shore. Haven’t seen lightning this prolific in a while. Only managing light rain in lynbrook. -

Marine stability, no focusing mechanism for convention. Need lift, like a strong seabreeze front or warm/cold front. Tomorrow we should at least see some precipitation. -

Absolutely zero surprise there. -

Likely scattered convection, likely the usual suspects the big winners. Coastal central Jersey being the perpetual jackpot. -
2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season
LongBeachSurfFreak replied to BarryStantonGBP's topic in Tropical Headquarters
This image really puts things in perspective of how small this tropical storm is in comparison with the Epac system. Atlantic really struggling to produce anything meaningful while adding named storms. -

Exactly. This has major real world implications. Especially in the age of marine heatwaves and unprecedented RI. The way people react to a cat 2 and a cat 5 might mean not evacuating and potentially deaths.
