Re: Battery Park, NY Tide Gauge - Real Time

I'm back - power came back up about 5 minutes ago.

We never got strong sustained winds, but we got gusts I'd guess 50-60mph. The wind direction swung to the W and SW much faster than expected, and that helped reduce wind speeds for me.

Tides are now high - 2' surge evident - but no damage. No waves. Wind is basically stopped - slow rain now.
