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

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!)

It was raining dogs and ... Uh, photo on Second Avenue and Seventh Street today by Derek Berg.

Tompkins Square Park after the rain

The remnants from Hurricane Florence moved through the area this afternoon.

Per NY1:

Tuesday [ed note: Today!] was the second-wettest day of the summer, and the wettest day in more than a month, in some parts of the city.
