  1. Warmth for the remainder of the month does not look quite as impressive as it did a few days ago. Meanwhile a beautiful high of 70 degrees today and now down to 49.
  2. Finally a night with no wind, maybe some radiational cooling.
  3. 58 the high here, clouds kept temps down some. Offshore storm has been keeping winds up along the coast, and temperatures up at night.
  4. More on Hazel probably one of the worst hurricanes to hit the east coast of the U.S. At landfall, the hurricane brought a storm surge of over 5.5 m (18 ft) to a large area of coastline, producing severe coastal damage; the damage was greater since the hurricane coincided with the highest lunar tide of the year.[32] Brunswick County, North Carolina, suffered the heaviest damage, where most coastal dwellings were either destroyed or severely damaged. For example, in Long Beach, North Carolina, only five of the 357 buildings were left standing.[29] The official report from the Weather Bureau in Raleigh, North Carolina stated that as a result of Hazel, "all traces of civilization on the immediate waterfront between the state line and Cape Fear were practically annihilated."[33] According to NOAA, "every pier in a distance of 170 miles [270 kilometres] of coastline was demolished"
  5. The highest wind speed recorded in NYC was from Hazel, even though the storm was well west of the area. Battery Park recorded 113mph.
  6. 44 here, some light snow in the Adirondacks.
  7. This transition from summer to fall has so far been about as normal as it gets, as far as temperatures go.
  8. As hard as the Tampa webcam showed the rain coming down, it is even harder now.
  9. Looking at Tampa cam, wind picking up and the rain has been relentlessly hard.
  10. Looks like eye is coming ashore just south of Sarasota.
  11. Doesn't look like a lot of wind in downtown Tampa but it sure is raining hard.
  12. This also has the University of Tampa cam
  13. It claims to be live and it has gone from light to dark. I noticed the same thing, not to windy. Maybe buildings blocking some of the wind.
  14. Here is a live webcam from the University of Tampa, downtown. https://www.ut.edu/about-ut/university-services/office-of-communications-and-public-affairs/live-webcam
  15. I think the bay may be in the very northern part of the eye wall, or they will just miss it and stay in the very strong northern eyewall winds.
  16. Looks like the eye is now just offshore from Sarasota, Port Charlotte area.
  17. Looks like the eye is coming ashore at Sarasota.
  18. Tampa Bay storm surge now expected to be 6-9 feet.
  19. Buoy some 80miles east of center reporting 40-50mph winds
  20. Looks like the western side of the storm really being affected by the dry air
  21. It looks like some shear and dry air are finally having some affect on the storm, lets hope.
  22. I was surprised Islip did not hit the 40s on September 9. They got to 50, I got down to 48 that night. As you mentioned the east wind probably had more of an affect on them.
