NJwx85 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Heavy rain here since 4AM. Got soaked just running to my car without an umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinRP37 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I'm hoping that we can finally string together a dry week with much more sun after today. The constant cloudiness is really starting to weigh on people I have noticed. No wonder so many people are vitamin D deficient here haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today was the 117th day this year with measurable precipitation at NYC through 9-25. The record WAR pattern and tropical moisture pushed NYC over the top.

I am quite sure it’s been far cloudier than average this month. Some stat I saw showing a cloudy day 70% of time when observed at noon for the month thus far. Normal was around 25% I believe.

September can often be a dry clear month especially if there is no tropical activity. This year we have had alot of onshore flow days bringing alot of cloud cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, we are running more than twice the normal amount of cloudiness for September. It goes along with the high dew points and record minimum temperature warmth.

It would be early but not unheard of in the Adirondacks, greens and whites. .50” so far in wantagh. Looks like from here out most of the precip is north and west which follows some of the modeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This summer was not typical of this area, sorry to say. Quick look at hours of dews above 70 and cloud cover for the summer will quickly show you this was not a “typical” summer. And as Bluewave pointed out 117 days of measurable precipitation and counting for #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 A whole lot wetter further west, it’s as if we experienced two different summers. Only September has felt noticeably cloudy on Long Island. Summer as a whole was very run of the mill, sunshine and precip-wise. Humidity was off the charts and temps were slightly above normal.

Thanks! Yeah looking at the cloud cover data it has been pretty impressive for awhile. Hopefully we don’t flip to dry and snowless for summer, but we will see. Even though I do not think I will be able to get out skiing this year (just welcomed my son into the world), I do love a nice bluebird winter day with great snow cover.

Yeah one thing I noticed this year is Long Island was much sunnier than just inland. I had to go to the field station a bunch further upstate and going from the city, I was amazed how different the days were. I would look at beach webcams and what not and it would be clear on the south shore and cloudy upstate. Just impressive dynamics really this summer with those dews.

That 117 number BW posted is way short of what it's been up here just 60 miles from midtown. I'd add another 50 to that easily but that's just anecdotal from looking at cams and such.

NycStormChaser Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 The HRRR is quite interesting for the next couple of hours. It develops some pretty intense thunderstorms. Sounding also support a quick spin up tornado in and around NYC. We have a better chance at severe weather today than we do tomorrow even though tomorrow is a slight by the SPC lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
