RP: More Maps, Stats from Tax Day Storm
UPDATE: Added a 4-day regional radar loop of the storm from beginning to end.
ORIGINAL POST:
Here are some additional hi-resolution maps of the NYC area that I collected from AccuWeather.com RadarPlus during the storm's landfall Monday but didn't have time to blog about (these are in addition to those shown on Sunday Morning and Sunday Afternoon and Sunday Evening). Some of these are big enough to use for Wallpaper if you wish.
There were also these radar loops (you may have to download these to play them):
Blog reader Robert sent the following list of tidbits* (which you can add to my list of stats) from the Tax Day Superstorm, which he says some people are calling "The Noricane":
- New York City experienced its 2nd wettest day ever with 7.57 inches of rain (and the 2nd wettest April ever, despite the month being only half-over)
- Philadelphia set an all-time April low pressure record of 28.82" Hg.
- Ambrose Light, NY set the storm's lowest pressure at 28.53" Hg (GRAPH)
- Binghamton, New York set an all-time April snow record with 11.7" on April 16th
Since I didn't research these stats myself, and he didn't give references, I can't vouch for them, though I have no reason to believe they are anything but the truth.
