Peterpools Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 I live on Long Island, New York and Hurricane Henri storm track has been slowly moving to the west and that unfortunately means Henri is targeting the middle of the island. Hopefully the track might change again to the east but the forecast doesn't look good. The hurricane should hit us sometime late tomorrow, shore and beach areas have received evacuation notices. Going to be a bad weekend. 🌩️ Keep 'em comin Peter 1 4

BlrwestSiR Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 Glad to hear you're as safe as you can be. Hope the storm turns to the east and misses you. Carl 3
Peterpools Posted August 20, 2021 Author Posted August 20, 2021 Thanks Carl Fingers crossed and hoping for the best. Hoping the storm moves to the east, put it out over the ocean when it passes us and maybe not too serve in New England which is just north of us. Keep 'em comin Peter 2
Spitfire Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 That looks very nasty, stay safe Cheers Dennis 3
Peterpools Posted August 21, 2021 Author Posted August 21, 2021 Thanks Guys We're as safe and ready as we can be. We live on the North Shore of Long Island and of course in Suffolk County and hanging in there. Keep 'em comin Peter 5
Peterpools Posted August 22, 2021 Author Posted August 22, 2021 Hi Guys We surely dodge a bullet here on the island. Henri was first downgraded to a bad tropical storm around 2AM and then the storm track changed to NNE and out of Block Island and then into Rhode Island. Still some heavy rain in areas and some winds but nothing as predicted. Of course our luck was someones else's misfortune. Keep 'em comin Peter 5
BlrwestSiR Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Glad to hear you're mostly in the clear there Peter. Carl 4
Peterpools Posted August 22, 2021 Author Posted August 22, 2021 Thanks Carl What a relief for sure Keep 'em comin Peter 3
Peterpools Posted August 23, 2021 Author Posted August 23, 2021 Today lots of rain and pretty gusty as we're getting the tail end of Henri. Hopefully by late today it should be over. Keep 'em comin Peter 3

GusMac Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 Glad to hear your safe Peter. Seems to have hit Tennessee and other areas pretty hard. 2
Peterpools Posted August 23, 2021 Author Posted August 23, 2021 Tennessee surely was clobbered with rain and floods, resulting in a lot of deaths and property damage. We had areas here on the island that received 6.5 inches of rain today and thank goodness, no loss of life. Some late day thunderstorms and tonight we should be clearing. Keep 'em comin Peter 4

Keep 'em comin Peter 6.5 inches is still a lot of rain! 😲 That's about 3 months worth for us and Scotland isn't the driest place in the world! Although I do live in the driest part of it. 2
Peterpools Posted August 24, 2021 Author Posted August 24, 2021 Thanks Guys It's hurricane season and just so glad we we able to dodge a bullet. The rain after the majority of the storm had past was close to a record for us. Keep 'em comin Peter 3
