really moving north quickly-some showers already into south Jersey

I was in a very heavy (short) downpour in Mamaroneck this afternoon. It cleaned all the bugs off the front of the car and windshield  :thumbsup:

I need to do what amounts to a lap of CT tomorrow. I'm hoping it's not wall to wall rain all day.

new NAM has 2 rounds of rain, a light one tonight and one late day tomorrow that's heavier so we could sneak in several hours of dry....

You can see it has had broad rotation for the past hour but its starting to tighten up a bit. I am sure they are contemplating issuing a TOR warning shortly if continued.

It's pushing through a heavily populated area at rush hour.

The remnant low is pretty incoherent, you wonder what might've been with a decent cold front to drive cyclogenesis.  As it is looks like some spots could be in for 2+ inches while their neighbors starve.  I guess we'll see.

What do you want? It’s been over land for days and has lost most of its tropical characteristics.

There is the distinct feeling in the air of a strong tropical warm front.  Albeit decaying.  But not like some warm front advecting into an extrotropical storm.  Just different.  Feels really nice to be outside.  The strong breeze is doing something for me.

Me too. Clouds are racing, nice strong breeze and a very tropical airmass. Feels different then your normal warm passes we've experienced this summer..but ye know...human psyche does play a role.

Incredibly warm for 1am on Sept 18, 75F in the Bronx.

It's those ridiculously high dew points again- this summer has been like nothing I've ever seen before, glad it's on its last legs.  I can tolerate 100+ heat with low humidity, but this is just yucky and you dont even get the joy of witnessing historic 100 degree heat, you just get the nasty humidity lol

When we think we've had a lot of rain I can't help but think of the guy in NC that posted in their Florence thread last night that he is at 103" so far for the year. I couldn't believe it when i saw it but he confirmed it. Can you imagine...

I remember the outrageous 80"+ inches of rain we had in 1983 although I was only 10 at the time (2 feet of that was from a snowstorm here).  Really hot summer too, with 28 days of 90+ at JFK (the record holder prior to the 31 in 2010) and 37 days of 90+ at NYC (the record holder prior to 1991 and 1993's 39- although 2010 should have been well into the 40s if not for the overgrown foliage) and JFK also had 24 days of 75+ dew points (far and away the record holder and the only year with more than 19 until 2018 came along and gave us 40 so far) and the still record holder of 240 hours (10 whole days!) of 90+ heat indices there!  The only year with more than 200 hours of that.
