Seabreeze being held off today. 90s right down to Long Beach so far. 89 here, was briefly at 90. Maybe all the rain we had yesterday will keep us a bit cooler than places that had none.

The difference between the south shore and north shore is wild. Not sure I’ve ever seen a gradient like that. 

The last couple of summers have been exceptions and you have oddballs like 2011, but it’s frequent that this summer drought happens on the south shore. Without some kind of synoptic storm, it just doesn’t rain there this time of the year other than what can survive coming east from the city. I remember numerous summers growing up and watching MCS type structures collapse as soon as they reach JFK. Yesterday was a frontal boundary plus the sea breeze front but rain barely made it south of the LIE until well east in Suffolk where it collapsed anyway. 

JFK and LGA both 91 at 10pm.

Not a drop of rain here in Southwest Nassau County today. Storms were North and East of here.

Rain is desperately needed there. Lawns down in Long Beach look practically charred. Hopefully we can have a more widespread convective day soon where storms can fire there. Up here it’s a total steam bath once again, like the Amazon.

And just like that they go and vanish it looks like closer to riverhead they go..pooo

Once the forcing from the sea breeze front goes away so do the storms. Unfortunately it’s why the south shore/east end often get so dry this time of the year.

My backyard is totally flooded

Yep, my street which is on a hill was a flowing River for a few minutes in that last cell. Radar estimates 1.8-2” in my immediate area. 

Steam is rising off my deck in the sun which is back out like nothing happened lol. 

And just like that, sun is back out and we’re back in the steam bath. Crazy last 90 minutes. 

Insanely heavy rain in this cell. Like during Ida heavy. No hail that I can tell but my street is flowing like a river.

I had rotation in farmingdale. 

There was clearly rotation for a good stretch from maybe Hicksville east to Deer Park where it got stronger. 

Here we go again here. Thunder getting louder and nasty cell near Syosset. 

That hook got quite intense right around the Sagtikos/Southern State, if there was a tornado it would’ve been there. 

Radar estimating about 1.4” for me so far and 2” in N Nassau. 

That rotation looks pronounced right over Deer Park. Wonder if there are any funnel cloud sightings.

65 dbz over Dix Hills

The LIE must be…. fun around the Rt 231 exit right now.

That’s quite an impressive hook echo for Nassau County.

 

 

I’m quite surprised there’s no tornado warning on it. Definitely looks like some rotation near E Farmingdale.

Looks really nasty in central nassau. Pouring rain and thunder here, but nothing severe. Heard there was hail in Syosset

There must be some decent sized hail in that core near the LIE about to cross into Melville. Enough to cause some damage. Same here though-heavy rain with a few 20 mph or so gusts. 

Some rotation near Hicksville/Levittown? Also definitely a hail core over Jericho. 

Some hail possible near Brookville now. Absolute torrent here. 

Pouring here.

North shore gets slammed again. Wish those storms came SE more, hearing constant thunder

It’s south shore drought season. Looking like maybe they can make it to the L.I.E. but probably tough south of there. 

Looks like something decent may actually make it here. Rumbles of thunder, heavy rain along 25A in Nassau.

Nice warned storm in Hudson county

Rich get richer. 91 here with awful humidity.

Yeah, most models like the RGEM have active sea breeze front convection today. The dewpoints are already in the mid 70s on Long Island. Hopefully, the axis of heaviest storms can get your area.

MacArthur/ISP  PTSUNNY   77  76  

 

Yep, feels disgusting outside. Hopefully we can get something to fire near the coast and not just NJ and places away. Rain is definitely needed here. 

98-99 at several stations around N Hempstead, Uniondale, Mineola.
