tim Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 ...finally some much needed rain here on ELI..looks like a short and intense round of heavy rain..which most will probably just run off..it will be interesting to see if they fall apart as they move east..in any event, hoping to salvage the afternoon on the beach.

Yeah, Newark continues the summer rainfall lead over Islip. EWR...11.80....ISP...5.81. But all the clouds and rain at Newark resulted in the 2nd lowest number of 90 degree days for the 2010's there by August 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 ~.2" here but just north of me it's a little over .4. It surely did pour for a while so I'm surprised at only a quarter inch or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 It seems that the bulk of the storm has moved of to the ENE but there has been a bit of redevelopment on the back side around here. How long is this going to keep up? I'd love to get out and do something outside without the random drizzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's just nuisance showers and thunderstorms like today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna play some tennis with one of my kids now while the trails dry out and then get out on the mt bikes with the other one later. This wet weekend thing has really gotten old Actually the wet for ~5 days a week for 6 months thing has just plain old sucked. I'd take some LI dryness if you guys want to trade for a few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not taking into account the fluke months that we get, but I agree that just calling for an above average month is always a good bet. I just hope the winter departures aren't too above normal. I would not be surprised if some 90s return. Doesn't look like anything extended right now, though, which is a relief to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But only +2.11" on the summer so far since numerous days had very light rainfall totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take some LI dryness if you guys want to trade for a few weeks Even out here on LI it's been a nuisance. We just get the left over shower and not the downpour. The weekend timing has been a pain. I'm on the beach now though. Breezy but I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true and the chances naturally decline 2nd half of August. I've noticed every time models tried to build the WAR in the extended it always gets knocked down. I wouldn't be surprised if this general troughiness extends beyond summer. We've seen patterns gets stuck for months on end, so why should this be any different.

Will - Rutgers Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Thunder was absolutely earthshaking this morning in Piscataway. Bolt came down no more than a few hundred feet away. I woke up at 4:30 thinking we were being bombed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen patterns gets stuck for months on end, so why should this be any different. Models show the trough dominating through mid-August, and how many more 90F days are we going to see post 8/15? Especially with a wet pattern, Central Park tends to get overgrown with vegetation. Low of 63F forecast in the Bronx tonight. With lowering humidity and a light breeze, there is almost an autumnal feel. Opening the windows and shutting off the A/C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
