Didn't expect that. Leaves are falling and trees are changing color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a few inches in August, including 1.50 in last Saturday's monsoon, and even still we see the effects. I cant imagine how bad it is in parts of the south shore.

We had zero zero of that rain or any of the convection before it. We can handle drought better then you guys though. As we are far more prone climatilogically. But this is ubsurd. The few tulip trees we have left will be gone if we do not get a good soaking soon. The part of Nassau I live in is a sliver of the north shore hard wood forests due to good soils. We lost huge groves of old growth tulip trees (by far the tallest and biggest trees native to the island that live 500+ years and grow 150' plus) during the 98 late summer drought. There are still a few standing skeletons but for the most part there are no traces. There are a couple groves left that are in a wetter area water table wise. These trees are magnificent for our area just look up the queens giant the largest and oldest tree in nyc.

winterwarlock Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 okay Im just going off of my NWS forecast which hasnt been too bullish on this event...they had 30% previous to today and now bumped to 50% and think .25-.5, the way Zarrow talked it was an all day soaker...it seems to be more like a period or slug of rain for a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
