eastern maybe, western long island has gotten a lot of heavy rain especially tonight

 

Exactly. Looks like we’re in for another 2 solid hours of off and on pounding thunderstorms. Everything off the ocean looks like Wantagh to Islip.

It's going to be scary picking up the pieces after this one tomorrow.  Still got lightning and thunder going on outside.

what happened up here with Camille? The only thing I know about it is that it was a Cat 5 that hit the Gulf, no news of anything it did once it came inland

 

Camille wound up dropping extreme rainfall in Virginia days after it made landfall, unfortunately over a 100 died from the flash flooding and mudslides… they both formed in the same region as well, just south of cuba, but camille never made landfall in cuba so it was able to get it’s act together more quickly compared to ida.

Michael also made landfall in the Gulf, did it make landfall too far east down there to have an impact up here?

Yeah michael kinda came in at an angle where it was traveling northeastward and went back out into the atlantic fairly quickly, off the coast of north carolina. It did causes some flooding and power issues in the carolinas and virginia too though, i remember it dropped up to 10” in nc, and there was significant flooding since they were already waterlogged from florence a month earlier, pretty similar to what’s happening in nj ny and pa now that i think about it

[WE GOT HIM]

Guys tonight was the craziest thing I've ever seen I was ready for the the flood and I still flooded I had sandbags Pumps, dry vacume luckily I saved most of my basement but I can't imagine how other people dealt with this

[WE GOT HIM]

hey man I have dealt with my own flooding during Irene and want to say I hope you are doing well, it can be real stressful shit.

be aggressive with mold.

Yeah, I ended up doing pretty well once I was able to wall off the water, but it was insane at one point.

Any tips for the mold? Luckily the dew point will be like 40 tom

Reminds me of the remnants of Hurricane Patricia in Oct 2015 when I was in Austin. Parts of the city had 15” from that mostly falling that morning. That’s still by far the heaviest rain I’ve ever seen. It probably beat the rain rates in this storm even. That reminded me of the Aug 2014 event in Islip. 

Oct 30 2015? Buda got 17 inches and Wimberley got 26 inches, that was the day I got my new laptop lol. BAD, BAD flooding in south central Texas. I didnt live down here yet, but I was down in Buda for 8 months in 2015 to get all my teeth removed lol.

13 inches of rain in about 6 hours here in Metuchen. Everything is basically flooded from basements to roadways. I was completely wrong about this event and it’s the worst I have ever scene in this area.
