Definitely one of the advantages of driving a truck. But I also know the water depth I’m driving through in my neighborhood. (Coastal flooding prone) dumping again on the uws.

Cfa Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I remember being on Rockaway Turnpike (SW Nassau) after a downpour when a gas tanker truck literally sped through one of those floods in the left lane, creating a tidal wave which fully enveloped the Honda Civic I was driving as well as the car in front of me, the wave literally went over the roof of the car. No damage thankfully, and thankfully the idiot didn’t roll over in traffic and burst into flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Raining again here....0.52” and counting. Heaviest rains should slide just to the west of me. Today may be the darkest day of the year at my station with just 0.2 “sunshine hours” (>120 w/m2 solar radiation) recorded, I have to double check, but I’m like 95% sure it is. Edit: Nope, March 21st was the darkest with no “sunshine hours” recorded, today is looking like a #2 or #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathermedic Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Mesoscale Discussion 1500 < Previous MD Mesoscale Discussion 1500 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0438 PM CDT Tue Sep 25 2018 Areas affected...Portions of NJ into Long Island and southern Connecticut Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 252138Z - 252345Z Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent SUMMARY...Occasionally weakly rotating storms are expected over the next few hours. Overall severe threat is very low. DISCUSSION...Semi-discrete storms, currently anchored along a warm front, have occasionally showed transient, weak low to mid-level rotation across portions of central/eastern New Jersey into the NYC area and far southern Connecticut. Though lapse rates are quite poor throughout the troposphere (i.e 5-5.5 C/km), sfc-850 mb moisture is quite deep, contributing to MLCAPE of up to 1000 J/kg along/south of the front. While effective bulk shear values are rather modest given the marginally unstable atmosphere (30-40 knots across the discussion area), favorable low-level directional shear remains in place, with effective SRH values exceeding 250 m2/s2 over Long Island, with nearly 350 m2/s2 0-3km SRH noted by recent KOKX WSR-88D VWP data. Low-level flow is slightly more veered closer to PHL, with latest KDIX VWP data suggesting both 0-3km and 0-1km SRH exceeding 150 m2/s2. The favorable low-level shear, combined with the moist/marginally buoyant airmass, may promote semi-discrete storms in the area to continue weakly rotating on an occasional basis, particularly across portions of Long Island and southern Connnecticut, where storms may more favorably traverse the warm front and ingest available low-level streamwise vorticity. Still, given the marginally buoyant airmass and expected lackluster potential for stronger rotation, the severe threat appears quite low. ..Squitieri/Hart.. 09/25/2018 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
