Your timing is the same as ours, but you will see a slightly extended period of higher wind threat beyond 2am

Damm but thanks for the information

oh no hope you have a generator..

We’re back on for right now, but yeah, we have a generator with about 20 gallons of fuel at the ready if we need it haha

Probably gusted close to 40 mph a couple minutes ago. Going by sound and the best obs I can find since it’s dark and I can’t see the trees anymore haha

Jman at 2am wondering why Westchester is not seeing high winds

LOL, maybe, maybe. I do get cutoff in my neighborhood, to get a good buffering I would have to go to the top of the hill im kinda in a area with two hills on each side. And since when was I a farmer lol, have we never met?

Here we go



Reported wind speeds in last 5 minutes

Definitely 40-45mph gusts here now. Can hear it.

How the heck can u guage wind speed by sound?

It's just about to go to all rain here in Albany, NY. But for about an hour before it changed over, it was really coming down here, and it coincided with my evening commute. I was cautious and slow as I should be in this situation. But in that 6 mile drive back to my apartment, it was ripping snow, resulting in a fresh coating of snow on the main roads (which should be washed away within the next few hours by the heavy rain).

Of all the people to ask me that question, you’re the last person I’d expect haha but, to answer, I’ve astutely  observed weather here my entire life, so I can get a pretty good guess based on how various wind speeds sound through the trees haha

Glad you’re back safely, Mike!

Winds picking up with occasional gusts to 45/50 mph in NYC and Queens area! Rain coming down at a decent rate. Looks like we are about to get hit with some heavy rain in the next hour or so as that yellow / reddish blob makes it to the NYC area

To check flooding in your area.

I think the trees are key. They make different sounds as the wind speeds get higher. After a few hours of the 20-25 mph sound, you can definitely hear the trees get blown at 40+ mph. At least if you have a thick patch of pines nearby like I did back in Bayville.

Sister in Belmar NJ said it ramping up .
30.mph sustained with she recorded 50 mph winds.

They just updated our rainfall totals, now 2.5 - 3.5" on top of snowmelt from upstream. Just had a gust of about 17 mph and my weather station is on my deck, so probably was higher. 50* now.

Lol I imagine, its hard to tell here as there isn't much sound. I can guage by how much the street lights are swining. When I lived in the woods in CT I know what you are talking about but I still would not know how to tell if it was 40 50 or 60mph.

Not much wind but raining pretty heavily, the street lights are swinging a bit. I am guessing with the next heavier batch of rain may see a uptick in winds.

Anyone has the latest HRRR?

On a positive note it looks like it will be out of here for the most part by 5 or 6z . Have to find the positive in this
