In other words, please use extreme caution if out driving tonight, especially across L.I. Rainfall rates could exceed 3"/hour resulting in life threatening flash flooding. wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/metwatch/metwa…

I know our models are not perfect but this was an epic failure of CAMS, meso/ hi-res models in terms of placement and location and to some degree, intensity. Thus, Watches were skewed out of place. Given the pictures and videos, we are lucky this wasn't more catastrophic

I have SO much respect for the tradition of 880. A lot of different emotions wrapped up in today's WCBS Newsradio 880 wrap up 'party' of nearly 60 years of service. Captured by Tony Aiello

The calendar says it's Sept. But Mom-Nature has it feeling just a little like Oct. By the end of the week, it will feel more like August again.

The biggest doubts about snowfall forecasts so frequently end up a few dozen miles N/S of the City. This one is no different! facebook.com/craigallenwx/p…

...and that is how dynamic cooling works when the air is cold and dry enough at the start of an event. Now 31.9/28 but changed to light to mod snow and sticking to colder surfaces. Lets see for how long with a S/SE wind. Notice the 1 hr difference on radar.

With the exception of locusts and hypno-toads, this is going to be a very rough weekend and week ahead---for us and much of the nation. 4 seasons of weather phenomena and hazards are likely. We'll be streaming updated forecasts from 4pm on, as well as CBS2 News at 7 and 11

"A sign of rebirth": Moments before white smoke rose from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel, signaling the election of a new pope, a baby bird appeared alongside two seagulls — an unexpected yet powerful symbol of new beginnings that was not lost on those who witnessed it.
