Wow hard shift to the East

Wow hard shift to the East

just woke up and checked the path and was surprised to see the change in path. Maybe a beach day here in nassau is still a possibility? Lol

 

[TeamKidd]

Yep pulling east for sure, plenty of rain but the wind should mostly be a non factor except we'll east. This now concludes our Emergency Preparedness Drill.

If you're in the Bahamas.

Yes it was. Wind just started picking up here in the southern part of Boston. Not much rain but the wind is 35+ mph and that is wort case scenario for us. We've had a lot of rain recently so trees will fall.

Good luck to everyone!

 

[teknics]

.35” of rain in East Hampton. Been a lame storm.

Lol, it is because I put far more effort than I usually do into getting ready for a storm.

I moved an insane amount of stuff from the yard to the garage (where it will probably now stay through the winter), raked out the leaves from the various street gutters near me, charged up batteries, phones and electrical devices, etc., made sure I had battery backup for the sump pump, and even put new windshield wipers on my car.

I don't usually do all of that but actually had the time this weekend for once.

Now if I didn't do all of that, I am sure it would have been a direct strike.

Dodged the wind and the worst of the rain, though some places in the city probably ended up with 10-12” between last night and today… northern NJ is in big trouble with rain

 

[TeamKidd]

I dunno if any of you know anyone in southern Louisiana, but they need to get the frig out ASAP, Hurricane Ida will probably be a Cat 4 or Cat 5 at landfall, it's going to go bananas in the gulf. It'll then U-turn around the country and head up our way (much, much, much weaker)...

When do we get the remnants of Ida?

Pack up the double wide and head to a blue state.

Wednesday.

Gonna be a lot of rain just north of the track of the low

Thanks.

 

[Tres Peleches]

Thanks.

Np. Still a chance it ends up south of us, and the exact timing is still up in the air, but worth keeping an eye on, especially since alot of places in western LI and northern NJ just got a ton of rain as is

 

[Tres Peleches]

If anyone has a basement that is prone to floods, get ready. Lots of rain coming from Ida… probably 3-6”, locally 8”

 

[PWJunior]

I was expecting a deluge today, but this has been nothing much so far. Looking at radar on my phone, looks like the heavy rain is going to miss Long Island to the north.

Yup. LHV getting plastered.

we’ll get our heavy rain, just a briefer period of heavy downpours this evening into early overnight hours

The bad news is that we could see some severe storms as those storms come through

 

[TeamKidd]

Absolute mayhem tonight in New Jersey with multiple significant tornadoes and Flash Flood Emergencies, carrying on North and eastward with a tornado warning in the Bronx now. Long island will see very heavy rain, flooding and thunderstorms but NJ/NYC really took it on the chin from Ida's remnants

 

[Tres Peleches]

NYC and western LI getting absolutely hammered, I hope everyone is alright

 

[nyisles]

Suddenly sounds like things have gone downhill outside my living room window in Lindenhurst. Don't see too many tornado watches around here, hopefully it stays that way and doesn't become a warning.

 

[MJF]

NYC looks like “The Day After”. Had to be a 4” per hour rate.
