nycwinter

going to be a hot muggy week in september smh...

kinda raw out their mist fog drizzle...

hot but a nice breeze outside this morning...

with all that green lush grass .. it was 5 degrees warmer outside the park...

one of the worst if not the worst feeling summer days here in nyc...

huge blowup of convection...

the storm is falling apart...

looks like the big island and maui will be the hardest hit areas from this storm when it is all said and done..

on radar you can see the center of the storm heading ne all the heavy rain is on maui hmm..

drying up in a moist air mass?

oahu going to get pounded with rain...

lane still holding it's own don't write him off...

in late august 1992 we did not have our first named storm of the season until andrew came along .. it only takes one huge storm to make a season..

winds down to 125 mph..

they could have done just that....

isolated flood damage? that will be the under statement of the year.. 3 to 5 inches of rain earlier this year in a short period of time in honolulu wreaked havoc... imagine when this storm is over how much rain will fall on the city...

lane holding it's own or looking better on infrared...

track was wrong even before lane central the central pacific it finally caved to most other guidance..

the gfs the best tropical model on lane the worst the euro.. what a embarrassment for the euro so out of touch with reality on hurricane lane..
