Moderate rains in NY and MA. I'm escaping it. But still in the 40s outside.


30°F on the rock

looks more than moderate but i guess not the same as an intense summer rain

Raining a bit outside, maybe it could speed up later

82 F with a 71 F dew point right now, so quite warm and humid. High is supposed to be 87 F today with a chance of storms.



We have a 64 F low predicted on Friday. Not a bad effort for May.

It's 30-40dbz intensity over you now. Tell us, how is it?


Usually reds (on my scale) means very heavy rain which usually starts at about 45dbz.
55dbz+ is cats and dogs type, usually just see pockets of that and not widespread.
Usually 10-35dbz is more widespread than anything above 45

58 F low forecast up here. I'll believe it when I see it. I won't be surprised if Stuart gets cooler than Orlando.

Nice, not bad for May!



I wanna see our May record low being broken one year (our record low for May is 54 F).

I hope you get it one day. It's not like it would ruin any crops or plants.


My record low for May is near 30°


White Plains: 32
NYC: 32
Bridgeport: 31 (May 10, 1966)
Danbury: 26

Even if were to ruin crops or plants, I don't care.


My ideal climate probably doesn't have many things growing until mid May at the earliest, and then things would green up quite fast.

Nah, at FLL.


Though, apparently it hit 49 F in May 1921.



A morning low in the upper 40s in May is hard to imagine. Hell, anything below about 63 F or so seems pretty rare in May.
