Riverside Park is a mess. Been a long time since we took such a direct hit.

Dunno if bluesky posts embed. no other good way to get vide on here... https://bsky.app/profile/blizzardgeek.bsky.social/post/3ly6ugvcnqk22

Absolute pounding on UWS. Wind ripping. Rain sideways. Haven't seen anything like this in a long time. Sounds/looks like a tropical storm.

And looking south from West Harlem

Yeah it's filling in. Huge clap of thunder just now. Here we go in Manhattan...

Are the storms moving on the line from Elizabeth/Staten Island towards the city drying up or just moving really really slowly?

Just reached KNYC and it’s clocking a bit over 97 at the moment. In fairness, the station gets a bit of sun as you can see. It’s not shrouded in the trees. General assessment from my walk: 99-100 in the blocks on the UWS and 97 ish in the park. the 100.4 was Madison Ave

Just recorded 100.3 in shade along Madison Ave at 75.

Southwest wind blows heat from the city right across to the airport.

Just recorded 96 at Bethesda Terrace in CPK but there’s a breeze blowing at me from the lake.

99.3 by AMNH (sidewalk, shade)

Got a 98.9 at Amsterdam and 86

97 along Amsterdam

I am here to bring you ground truth. Currently walking from Riverside across to east side. first measurement 97.3 in shade on West End
