Tropical Storm Amanda has formed in the eastern Pacific, about 1500 miles southwest of Cabo San Lucas.
Amanda will strengthen a bit over the next couple days before fizzling out this weekend, posing no threat to land.
Quite a unique & potent storm spiraling through New England this morning 🌀
I’d get wind headlines up for Long Island with guidance trending a bit more west. Can definitely see 50+ mph gusts mixing down across Suffolk County thru midday. 🌬️

@carriefan84 You’re the one having a MAGA meltdown on MY post, Terry. 🤡
P.S. I know your fingers are wet from wiping tears, but try using the space bar once in a while. 🥲
Imagine starting a regime change war to end Iran’s nuclear & missile threat only to:
- Keep IRGC in power
- Give Iran control of Strait
- Unfreeze $20 BILLION in assets
- Allow Iran to keep ballistic missiles
- Allow Iran to keep uranium
It’s not a peace deal.
It’s surrender.
@ForgottenNY Atlanta’s official climate reporting site (Hartsfield-Jackson) reported ZERO rain on Wednesday while downtown, just 9 miles north of there, picked up nearly 3” in one hour!
PSA 🔊
2”+ of rain falling in an hour over a heavily urbanized area will cause flash flooding almost anywhere.
We saw it in New York City. We saw it in Atlanta.
Debate infrastructure all you want, but no mayor controls rainfall rates.

@USronaldcarter New York City did NOT receive anywhere near 6” rain yesterday. The highest recorded amount was less than 3” in Queens.
Also, NO flash flood warnings were issued by @NWSNewYorkNY, let alone in “every borough.”
It’s sad to see misinformation spread so blithely for clicks.
@VickieforNYC Actually, it’s not.

It’s sad misinformation is spread so blithely.
@IsaacWxObserver@nysmesonet …”as the drainage system becomes overwhelmed, water overflows as runoff, & pluvial flooding, or what is commonly known as street flooding, occurs. Further, as urban areas are densely populated, the consequences of flooding are oftentimes more severe than coastal/tidal flooding.”
@IsaacWxObserver@nysmesonet …”within the urban environment, the effects are pronounced. Urban watersheds, lined with impervious surfaces, such as concrete, asphalt, and stone, have a limited amount of infiltration and recharge during heavy rainfall; thus, surface flow dominates the hydrological response.”
