All comes down to where the blocking and resulting confluence sets up. Would be a nail biter if this was winter. Although it doesn’t really interest me now-light/mod rain vs mist is still another ruined weekend.
-
Not sure a windy mist storm would be that much better outcome. Blocking/confluence doing work on that map with the ESE precip cutoff like that.
-
If that raging jet stays, doesn’t matter how strong any Nino might be, we still have the perma-Nina state. Maybe it’s a good thing we’re getting this over with now? PDO is still very negative which reinforces that jet.
-
The primary hanging on too long/Lake cutters are Nina features. Hopefully as we go into winter we get rid of those. That map would be heavy rain for the city/coast even in late January.

Beautiful in Long Beach, smoke cleared out thankfully. A COC day as they put it in the New England forum. The beach took a rough hit and possibly more to come @wdrag
-
Beaches here are rough too. Glad to see the sun finally, no smoke here thankfully.

Lido Blvd was horrendous, Laurelton where I grew up surprisingly wasn’t that bad from what I heard but many basements flooded. I grew up near Laurelton/W Fulton. The Dec nor’easter flooding was bad there.

The Aug 2011 flood before Irene will always be memorable in Long Beach. Irene of course was bad too. This one ranks right up there. Finally some sun trying to come out. But this rain wasn’t “unprecedented” and we’ll see this again within a few years, so whatever the city has to do in order to prepare, should make that happen.

You should send your total to Upton if you didn’t already.

Tracking The 3”+ Heavy Rainfall Events Since 2010
jm1220 replied to bluewave's topic in New York City Metro
Yep, where to even start with yesterday/today’s event. -
Right up there with Aug 2011’s event pre-Irene that had 10” in Lido Beach. And probably add a half inch to that from the rain this morning.

And if Northport got 4.27", must have been 5" or more here.

Highest in the area looks to be Valley Stream. @uofmiami you should send your Syosset total in. I would think Hewlett would be higher than East Rockaway. If the radar estimate matters, Atlantic Beach/Lawrence/Inwood probably had over 10" then.

And OT, but it's becoming more inhabited every year with bigger apartment/condo buildings going up, literally on a big sand dune. It's becoming the Pompano Beach of NY. It's nuts.

3 basements on my former street in Long Beach badly flooded. Sump pumps going gangbusters. Some flooded out cars too. It was a nightmare there this afternoon. Kids were waiting to be picked up from school in knee high water. When the drainage system goes bust there which I saw a few times especially in Aug 2011, the city floods pretty fast. Unfortunately some of the same places flooded in the December torch to freeze nor'easter.

Final totals not done yet and Suffolk still heavy rain, but this was definitely Ida for southern Nassau-some places in the 5 towns/Atlantic Beach must've gotten over 8". Widespread 5"+ elsewhere in S Nassau. I probably have 4-5", that was some of the most intense rain I've seen in quite some time. Long Beach was a "chaotic disaster" this afternoon according to my mom who had to drive in it.
-
Models show another round of rain in the morning that hopefully won't be more than 0.25" or so but we're not done yet.

Was still moderate a few minutes ago here despite the radar having it very light. Radar estimates 4” here but I’m probably a good bit over. Street that’s downhill from me is flooded pretty good.
