It’s generally the French Canadians above us that are venting.The moon is yellow orange and we can smell smoke.

I just read that places in Stony Brook reported getting 11 inches of rain.We had so many (or such a long continuous) thunderstorms last night. The pool needed water and is now overflowing. My wife said we got 10" or rain. I'm not sure about that, but given the pool it was at least 5".
Many roads washed out here. Many places flooded, many intersections flooded.
The only thing I see on my property is that apparently a stream appeared from the flat lawn that went under my woodshed and came out the back. It washed some sand out from under the woodshed, which is not ideal (footers etc.), so I'll have to have a look at that.
What came off the roof of the woodshed (no gutter) went well, as the bark on the ground there prevented severe erosion, except where it got washed away because of that stream.
While that's a way west of me, then I should believe my wife more oftenI just read that places in Stony Brook reported getting 11 inches of rain.
We would've lost a bunch of bridges along with some houses if we received that much rain.indeed:

There's probably some dude in the community with a shiny Hummer or Rivian that will be out testing that road today. Might be entertaining.Yes, I did see a river going down the street here (I'm on a steep hill that even for 4-wheel drive cars is tough to climb when there's only wet leaves in fall - let alone if there's snow) yesterday night. But somehow the part of my lot bordering that road did not wash out. I guess the 3" gravel I slowly added to (pressed into) the places where cars track into the grass/soil did their job.
There's a gated neighborhood right next to where I live (I hate those gated places...) where a whole road washed away. Not even a jeep can get through there. Sandy (ice age) hills -> steep and deep gullies.
Better yet a Cyber truck. .There's probably some dude in the community with a shiny Hummer or Rivian that will be out testing that road today. Might be entertaining.
I just saw that Sound Beach Long Island reported a little over 10 inches of rain.It's gated there, and no Hummer, RIvian, or Cybertruck is present there (I do take walks there).
The cybertruck might have to be followed by a ICE pick up according to what I've seen on YouTube![]()
The wife said it was 67 when she looked at the wireless this morning, when I looked it was 64. Our temperature dropped down to 60 with a low of 49 forecast for tonight. Thanks for sending that cooler weather this way. 👍What a difference a day makes on Sunday 32real feel 38
This morning 9with a high expected at 15
with no humidity
My kind of weather
I looked at the radar, and there were a few storms that just kept on growing on their south side while they drifted into the Sound. It seems many places on the north shore there got hammered. And it's hilly on the north shore, so that exacerbates things. The south side of the island is flat (which is bad for hurricanes storm surge etc.)I just saw that Sound Beach Long Island reported a little over 10 inches of rain.
