  1. 78 degrees here, dew point 70, humidity 76%, feels better than early this morning.
  2. I was just down in North Carolina and it was some 10-15 degrees warmer than on Long Island today. It feels hotter and more uncomfortable here than there.
  3. Hit 90 degrees here today, 8th time this season I have hit 90.
  4. Nice to see the southwest United States not having heat advisories. Phoenix expecting temperatures around 102-104 for the next number of days. Their average high is 104.
  5. Was at Tobay beach tonight, just east of Jones Beach. Most everyone had on sweat shirts and light jackets. Definitely did not feel like July.
  6. For whatever reason, Newark is the hottest major recording station in our area in the summer. I believe the local environment of concrete, maybe all the chemical and industrial facilities nearby, the wide open space of a major airport and with many large planes and that sun beating down on all the tarmac, probably has a play in those temperature readings. I don't think the readings are wrong, just a product of the environment, just like Central Park is a product of that environment.
  7. 84.5 was my high but very humid.
  8. May have been some kind of microburst that went through the southeast part of levittown. That is where this house is I own and not only is this big tree down but there's wires down in nearby areas too, from what I am told.
  9. Well I guess it did over achieve. Just found out the big tree on a small house I own in Levittown, came down.
  10. Ended up with 3.4 inches of rain from Elsa and 4.1 inches including yesterday. Peak wind gust 35mph. I would say a bit of an over achiever from what I was expecting.
  11. My barometric pressure is 1003 or 29.63 inches. Elsa barometric pressure was, I believe, about 1006 yesterday. So some intensification does seem to have happened.
  12. Looks like the center of Elsa is near the middle of the south shore of Long Island.
  13. Surprised to see branches down when I went to the store. The wind has been gusty at times but generally not to strong. I have had 3.25 inches of rain from Elsa and including yesterday 4.03 inches.
  14. 2 inches of rain here since midnight, just about all of it in the last few hours, winds have picked up some gusting to 30mph.
  15. My wind is shifting from east to NNE , so I would say the storm has been SSW of me and is now more south .
  16. Picked up .70 inch of rain in 20 minutes, still heavy. Winds gusty but not real strong, gusting to 26mph.
  17. Got about a 1/2 inch of rain in 15 minutes. Still raining fairly hard.
  18. Wow, only 84 here but very oppressive
  19. Most of the bad weather with this storm is well to the north and east. So I would think our worst weather will happen when the center of Elsa is over the Delmarva area into southern New Jersey.
