Noting

Checking in again on the weather forecast... a sky check from 10th and B this afternoon. 

Weatherman said rain. If you could get paid that kind of money for being wrong 60% of the time, it'd beat working. — Dale Cooper

Sunday's opening shot

Rain and wind expected throughout the day ... with the greatest chance coming around 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., according to the National Weather Service. 

Speaking of wind, not to be alarming, but there is a GALE WARNING (!!!) in effect until 6 p.m. So this is not the day to see if the skiff might be seaworthy. 

WHAT...Northeast winds 20 to 25 kt with gusts up to 35 kt and seas 2 to 4 feet. 

WHERE...Long Island Sound west of Port Jefferson and New Haven, and New York Harbor. 

WHEN...Until 6 PM EDT this evening. 

IMPACTS...Strong winds will cause hazardous seas which could capsize or damage vessels and reduce visibility. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Mariners should alter plans to avoid these hazardous conditions. Remain in port, seek safe harbor, alter course, and/or secure the vessel for severe conditions. 
 Speaking of the Mariners, Seattle made the playoffs this year.

Saturday's opening shot

Bowery and Houston this morning... where the retails space on the southwest corner has been vacant since Cherche Midi, Keith McNally's French brasserie, closed in June 2018

And now turning to the weather... as the National Weather Service puts it, expect wet, cool and breezy conditions today. Next up, sports....

Saturday's opening shot (and non-exclusive weather forecast)

The area is under a flurry of weather statements today. 

We will omit the customary byplay and go right to the Weather Channel for the latest... 
Description ...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 9 AM THIS MORNING TO 7 PM EST THIS EVENING... 

WHAT...Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of up to two inches. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph. 

WHERE...Portions of northeast New Jersey, southern Connecticut and southeast New York. 

WHEN...From 9 AM this morning to 7 PM EST this evening. 

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Temperatures will fall quickly late this morning into this afternoon resulting in a quick freezing of any standing water.
Here's more... with the National Weather Service predicting the snow to start in NYC "around lunctime" (I'm eating at 11:30 a.m.)... As is this wasn't fun enough, we also lose an hour of sleep tonight. #DaylightSavingTime

Saturday so far, with the sharpening southward plunge of the jet stream



A few rainy morning scenes from Tompkins Square Park and Avenue A courtesy of Vinny & O...





As for this weather, we're having a nor'easter, per sources. As I understand it, and have noted before in similar situations, a sharpening southward plunge of the jet stream slid into the East as an area of low pressure strengthened near the East Coast.

This setup [motioning arms] is allowing rain to spread across the Northeast. Wet conditions will persist through today and into tonight. Cooler-than-average temperatures are also expected and it will feel chilly when combined with the wind. (Yes, I cut-n-paste that from The Weather Channel!)

When it was foggy early this morning



If you woke up today after, say, 9 a.m., then you missed the foggy wonderland that was NYC. It was almost like the set of "The Hound of the Baskervilles," except without the phantom pack of hounds baying across the moor.

Today's weather is unbearable



EVG reader @laurab0401 spotted the above today on Fifth Street between Avenue A and Avenue B.

As for that weather... there are three alerts from the National Weather Service for NYC... there's a heat advisory, flash flood watch and air quality alert...



The city's cooling centers are open today.

The sun also rises at 3 a.m.



Andrew Adam Newman on Ave C points us to tonight's forecast at The Weather Channel... where something extraordinary will happen ... as he noted on Facebook, "If you're still up at 3 a.m. ... be sure to look up at the sun poking through the clouds."

This morning



Photos by Bobby Williams around 6:30 a.m. ...



And in Tompkins Square Park, a sagging (or whatever) branch was making it difficult to play chess...





...and Gem Spa was (is) ready for the rain...
