Ok I’m not here for an argument and I do not want to pull radar loops. But that enhanced area that came off New Jersey only scrapped jones beach and not the rest of Long Island. Regardless I do not have a rain gauge at JB but I had a measly quarter inch when I got home to lynbrook. My go to with jones beach is when the administration parking lot floods. We had some water coming out of the sump today but just barely in the lot. .

Where are these stations? 5 miles south or more then any inhabited land. Rain trained right along the barrier islands. .
-
Consistent moderate rain with rumbles of thunder at jones beach. Have to be near an inch here .
-
Seems to break apart heading east. Currently light rain at jones beach .
-
Good point. Areas that had been dry did especially well during the last heat wave. JFK is a great example. .
-
Nice let’s break the trend of one a done 100 heat waves. .

My bootleg gauge (I need to get a legit one) had 3.5” just now. Biggest event here in Lynbrook in over a year. .
-
Over 2” in sw Nassua now. Rates have been consistently below what’s needed for real flash flooding. So it’s mainly a much needed good soaking .
-
Alternating between moderate and heavy in sw Nassua. Looking good for at least 2” .
-
Jones beach air show cancled, for what so far has amounted to nothing more then light showers on the south shore of Nassau. .

The south shore of Nassau has seasonal summer drought due to the sea breeze front. The more years I experience the more I comprehend this phenomenon. It’s a big part of why the Hempstead plains once existed. Native Americans used the summer seasonal drought to create controlled burns. It doesn’t make it an easy place to live if your into gardening or in my case a landscape designer. The good news with this event is, we often do best in summer with this exact setup. .

99 at jfk but 92 in the park. That’s just laughably bad .
-
Yeah a nice soak would beyond welcome. Not looking forward to watering the vegetable garden at 10pm when I get home from the beach .

Winds have turned offshore and jfks temp rose over night back to 87. There will be no relief at the beaches this morning. In fact beaches will potentially be the hottest places with a desert like feedback off the dry sand. I’ll be praying for the wind to flip back onshore in the afternoon. JFK may break its all time record today .

Would t be surprised to see LGA have a low in the high 80s .
