  1. Hit 93 here today, this is my longest heat wave of the season (4 days). I now have 17, 90 plus days this season.
  2. My second hottest day of the year with a high of 93.4
  3. Was down at Jones Beach tonight. I could see the over wash from Henri was substantial. Looks like the water went up to and under the boardwalk.
  4. I believe it was a Cat 2 briefly on Oct. 29 but when it came ashore it was a Cat 1 with 80mph winds. Regardless, my point was if Sandy took the typical hurricane track south to north, the severe flooding would not have happened in the NY and NJ area. That is what Sandy will be most remembered for. Being so large the energy was spread out with strong winds over a huge area.
  5. If Sandy did not take the track it took, it would have been just another Cat 1 hurricane for us. The track and slow speed created the historical flooding which Sandy will be remembered for.
  6. 2.6 inches of rain here today and 1.52 last evening for a total of 4.12. Wind has finally picked up a little with gusts to about 20-25.
  7. Looks like western half of Long Island in for lots of rain and it appears to be ending in far eastern Long Island. I now have 1.42 inches from Henri after 1.5 inches last night.
  8. Its hard to tell where the center is but it appears as though southeast and central Ct. are getting the worst. I think Henri may be heading more west than north.
  9. New London airport in SE Ct. reporting sustained 31mph and gust to 46mph. Henri appears to be moving toward Ct.

  11. We are definitely due. Of course the indirect hits we have had, like Sandy, Isaias are as bad as a direct hit. Sandy maybe worse.
  12. So the streak of no hurricanes coming onshore in New England will stay in tack. 30 years and counting. It has actually been 36 years for Long Island.
  13. After 1.5 inches of rain last night, I have received .17 from Henri. Light rain falling, very light winds.
