highest in the area!  Walt, were the sustained winds over 50 when that happened?

Did not check...  but the 70 makes sense... per modeled profile.  Am not surprised.  Rooftop it is... which can also be tree crown top at 30-40 feet above ground level.

it's good that it's on a rooftop to rise above the obstructions lol.  That looks like Brooklyn College to me.

we're def getting interesting weather around here lately lol.  I'm fully prepared to experience a Cat 1 hurricane here in the middle of winter within the next 10 years.

 

how about a snowstorm at the end of the month like what happened in 1938...this year anything is possible...
