It's not dry it just takes the heaviest north and west

i hope we get 4 or 5  inches in central park so we can be well on our way to the third straight month of 10 inches of rain.

when i watch the weather channel the gfs is always dry compared to the euro not just here all over the country it's a gfs bias

Weather should be spectacular behind Ida. Sunny and mid 70s with a brisk northerly breeze Thursday afternoon and nice right through Sunday at least

nyc will not have another 90 degree day until next spring..

if the city has not done it already.. this rain will blow by the 10 inch mark  for the month for the city. darn tomorrow is sept 1 lol well maybe september will be another 10 inch month lol..

Are areawide reservoirs all at 100% capacity?

ny reservoir levels are at 95% normally this time of year should be 82% nyc normally  uses a billion gallons of water every day..

lee goldberg future cast showed just less then 3 inches in the city even he said those numbers are low..

Question? Did ida ever hit cat 5?

from the lowest  pressure at 929 i don;t think it reached cat 5

3 minutes ago, LibertyBell said:

So the maximum wind reported with IDA was 172 mph?!  Wow, that was stronger than any gust reported with Laura last year.  What was the sustained wind to go along with that 172 mph gust?

 

i think i ready the sustained wind in that gust was 149

I feel like I'm living in Seattle this past week

seattle usually cooler in the summer then nyc..

i also doubt any 90's will happen again until next spring..

96 today. Got home from PA and it’s a steam bath here. Was hot there, but the humidity on the island is much worse. 

this felt like the worst of all the hit summer days and hopefully the last 90 degree day until next spring

did nyc get over 10 inches  for the month with the rain today?

7 minutes ago, LibertyBell said:

Think NYC gets over 10" with this one?

 

i said a few days ago it was 100% a guarantee the city gets over 10 inches..

ida maximum winds have increased to 80 mph..

the water it is in currently.. is even  warmer even then the water in the  gulf of mexico.

another atrocious day if you do not like the heat and humidity raises my hand..

This thing may be going through RI before Cuba… I’m siding with the higher intensity guidance on this storm given the structure at present. This is ahead of modeling 

usually the warmest and deepest water in our area of the world is south of cuba..

PV / upper trough that brought you storms last night is the culprit. 500-300 hPa level weakness in the ridge north of the TC. A more stacked and strong system will feel the poleward mid-to-upper flow versus a weaker system until 500 dm heights rebuild off the SECONUS and diabetic heating from Ida fills/squashes the PV. A gradual bend back NW is probable into landfall as the potential hurricane traverses the central GOM.

what does diabetic heating mean or did you mispell that word?

another dreaded i storm.upcoming..
