Lots of sirens and trees down. Lost power but otherwise ok here

I know many like extreme weather and some even root for damage but I wonder if those have ever had damage? It’s not fun and the damage I had years ago wasn’t too bad but still not fun. A close colleague of mine was in the East Coldenham Elementary School disaster, she was in the cafeteria and lost classmates. That experience has had significant long term effects on her mental health. .66” here this morning, I thankfully missed the worst, 63/61.

Yes. Those are the records for each location. The 1917 stretch is the only 4-day streak on record for Central Park.

I found three others (98+ over four days) ,,, one in 1933 (same dates as 1917, July 30 to Aug 2) 98 102 100 98) and also Aug 28 to 31 1953 (98 99 98 100) which were followed by 97 102, so six over 97 there. And in 1993 July 7-10 ran 98 100 101 102 with 97 on the 11th. 

1977 had four at 97+ (July 16-19 ran 98 97 100 102) and 2001 had four at 97+ Aug 7 to 10 (99 99 103 97) ... June 4 1925 ran 99 99 98 96 and Aug 12-15 1944 was 97 102 97 96 (followed by 95 95 96 95). Aug 23 -27 1948 was 95 103 101 100 95.

O/t We haven’t suffered those kinds of losses, but we’ve dealt with so much damage and stress, including financial, the flooding and power outages,  I genuinely get anxious now when something like this happens.

Yes. That's correct. I misspoke. I had checked whether 1917 was the longest streak and didn't check all the dates all of them occurred.

I bet the roots of that tree were cut on the sidewalk side, because it was lifting the sidewalk up, then the sidewalk repaired. I am saying this because we do not see the sidewalk lifted up by the tree falling. When I was a kid we had the problem where the town cut the roots on the curb side. Hurricane Belle blew thru, and the tree fell away from the street as a result of the weakened root structure.
