I am getting heavy rain with gusty winds (easy over 50+ mph). it's been pouring for quite some time. Wonder what the squall line will bring!

Where are you located?

Astoria, NY (in queens) We just got a flood warning!

Wow impressive, hope ur lights stay on. So far watching coned map only 592 outages for 3 mil lol

Okay well aparently I have a floodwarning here but my phone did not go off, doesn't a flood warning trigger the emergency alert? It actually specifies Yonkers too.

Nature doesn't usually make straight lines like that.  It looks like a hose pouring water on eastern PA.

its bizarre looking isn't it?!

never seen anything like it.

sometimes you see a gust front rolling out in front of a thunderstorm that looks pencil thin like that, but it's never that straight, and it travels like a wave.

Winds ate picking up here for sure

In that squall line currently and it’s just extremely heavy rain. Wind doesn’t seem to have picked up at all.

It may well be a coastal thing I have been looking at gusts on wundermap and the highest (which arent that high) have been all coastal locations, not surprising but a little that winds did not pick up at all with te squall line.

I'm just under the b in Lebanon.

I see a report of 44mph gust in mamaroneck NY on a weather station there.

It might just be. I just hit a reading of 61 MPH! The sound is insane, the wind is howling and pounding against the windows right now!

Wind is def suddenly picking up, ugg they are putting all the recycling bags out, if we do get higher winds those will be all over the streets. Happened many times and the city does not pick them up!

Guessing you have a wx station? Are you directly on the water? Not seeing any observations like that on wundermap for queens.

Still fairly underwhelming but it is picking up and rain has gotten heavier. Living in a brick building that faces another its hard to get winds. But I can see the main road and rain is wisping across the intersection and the street lights are bouncing.

That line is closing in on me here, not looking forward to it

So far the two reports we got were that nothing happened other than heavy rain. Surprised theres no thunder in there.

I have another house in Jamaica, NY closer to JFK area. My brother just sent me this screenshot.

Okay the line just crossed over me.  Whipping rain with strong wind from the south.  Looked like a tropical storm for about 5 min.  Over now.

And the lights flickered.

Tree are friggin swaying like crazy ....another 4 hours of this. Winds roaring gusts over 30 mph and getting stronger and louder.

Winds are def pick up here, I think the the closer the line gets to the coast the stronger the winds will get. Just had a decent gust barrel down the street, waiting for all those recycling bags to go flying.

Even after the sqall line passes? I thought that was the end of it but makes sense back end winds, I just heard the wind blowing on my windows.
