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.

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.

Yep, 98 here too. This is high end heat for us, snuck in quietly. 

95 at my closest station. 

Places south of the sea breeze front are still in the low-mid 90s in Nassau/W Suffolk. Yikes. Even Long Beach is in the upper 80s. 

It’s brutal outside today but I wonder if the PWS dew points can be biased too high. The airport dew points are in the upper 60s not the low to mid 70s the PWS seems to have. The seabreeze will definitely kick up the humidity though so we might cut 3-5 degrees off the temp but add 3-5 degrees to the dewpoint in places more than a few miles from the beaches. 

Around 80 now on Fire Island/Captree. May not have gotten too hot there in the first place but as the breeze kicks up it will cool down more further north. 

91 already. 

91 here.

Warm fronts are great for the coast. Hopefully this breaks the drought 

The record 2014 Islip deluge was a summer warm front.

Not a drop on the south shore. You know the deal having grown up in Long Beach. We call these secret days at Jones beach. It’s been sunny all day

Looks like more widespread convection will be coming tomorrow and Monday. We'll see what happens.

The higher dewpoints and mid 70s SSTs are doing their job. Some spots have picked up over 1.00” this morning. We’ll probably see more widespread convection in the coming days.

 

Yeah, I probably spoke too soon with the coastal drought. Very difficult if not impossible to get anything more than a short lived dry spell here these days. Florida here we come.
