STORM RAIN TOTALS RECAP
This recent nor'easter was one of those storms with a little bit of everything for Long Island. It was a true sign of the changing of seasons we are going through, from temperatures around 60 degrees with severe weather nearby to the colder weather moving in as it dries out overnight. It also provided around 1 to 2 inches of rain for much of Long Island. Wind gusts peaked at around 20 to 40 mph with a few isolated higher gusts, mostly across the East End. Here are some of the storm's total rainfall amounts below.
