But it will usually be twice in one month that does not really make it a "blue moon" until the 4th full moon happens in 3 months. A common misconception.

Listen, it's not that important.
I really don't have time to go back and forth with you on what and what is not a full moon / blue moob and what is not.
It's trivial.
I took two earth science classes, oceanography and meteorology fascinate me.
I was taught it's the second full moon of any calendar month.
But I stand corrected, the last full moon before last night was at the end of July, not the beginning of August.
Oops, I had a brain fart on a piece of trivia.
I don't have time to research every trivial thing I post on a free message board.
Sometimes I'm wrong, most times I'm not.
Thanks for dropping by noob.Comment -
Hey Coach.
Your old stomping grounds (Hoboken) is a swimming pool right now.
Flooding on the streets there by the Hudson River.
Pastone of Accueather just about nailed it on the head.
He said New Haven Ct. would be ground zero, actually Westerly RI was.
That's just up the I-95 north some.
Norwich (Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods) Ct. is getting hammered, that's a 50 mile drive north from me.
The center hit 50 miles give or take north of me.
The science geeks got this one pretty much right.Comment -
Nashy so your telling me your house is in the Atlantic Ocean right now??Comment -
They had weather satellites tracking this from Day 1 and still shifted 100 miles to the right last minute. If this was a baseball game and the umpire call it a strike you will be pissed because it was an obvious ball.Comment -
If this storm didn't make a last minute turn it might have been.
It moved 50 miles to the center of the state, off the coast.
Coach?
You ever study earth science?
First month of classes all the profs will tell you this is not an exact science.
Might never be. But the advances in the last 20 years have been extraordinary.
You can't predict the unpredictable.
Any analyst will tell you.
a) Collect all the fact and data, not bits and pieces, but all the dats.
b) Once aforementioned data has been collected it analyze it to form your best conclusion as to what the outcome would most likely be.
Once again, you can't predict the unpredictable, but with all the proper data and analyzed your conclusion would be 99.9 percent more accurate than the best dart throwing guesser.
Stay in your lane CoachComment -
like I said Weather Channel always gives 2% scenario
Clicks are big business pal
I never worried one bit for you because was all BS other than some flooding like you saidComment -
I'm going to take a few pics in a bit, I need to out for a second and survey in a little while later.
Rain is really picking up now, but the wind calmed down some.
But there was major flooding and a lot of roofs got destroyed earlier this morning, but that was 40 - 60 miles to my northwest.
I'm just glad it sheered off the coast some, believe me, and you know this, you don't want a hurricane/ 'Nor easter hanging around the coast for a day.
Nobody.Comment -
Swing and a miss for Bill!
Bill or I mean Nash..big nothing burger for CT!Comment -
Thanks man, so far, so good.
Another 12 to 18 hours to ride out here.
Here's your update.
Know what I call this one?
A minor major storm.
Not a an epic, but this one is a major pain in the ass.
Hey, I we got hit right in the jaw with Super Storm Sandy.
Five days without electricity, knocked all of us back to the stone ages.
I'll never forget.
Update.

Yeah.
We're fine. Thanks.
NBC (CT ch. 3 ) has a report on crushed roofs in Nagatuck.

Funny you should mention pics.
I was checking the recycle bin I keep on my back deck (covered of course) and noticed the winds dropped from 50 to 10 mph, but the rain is really steady, pretty hard, but now blowing.
Yeah, we're safe, thanks, going to check my car now and snap some shots.Comment -

I'm in Southbury right next 2 Newtown.
No roof damage anywhere especially in Naugatuck. Only minor damage was in southeast ct guy
Fairfield just basically a rain event.
We had thunderstorms last month much worse than thisComment -
You have no damage in Fairfield
No roofs or anything else you tried 2 say.
Fact is this Strom was nothing burger.
Stop trying act like it was.
Of course a rotten tree might fall in a rain event. Had nothing do with windComment -
Yeah, you're right.
On Penfield we have a ton of water, some erosion, not much.
Scattered wind damage in the state.
The storm took a turn at the last minute, spared the coast.
That's what I'm saying.
Just went outside.
Soupy humidity. Real sticky.
Medium rain, driving though.
Slight wind, say 10 mph.
Could have been a lot worse if it hugged the coast.
It didn't. I don't want to live through another Super storm SandyComment -
I wish all of you living through this well, having lived in Fl forever it seems tropical storm’s and hurricanes pretty much are never as bad as predicted . Having lived and stayed during to many to count, including hurricane Michael 3 years ago with 155 mph sustained winds, although they topped out at my house at 118 mph according to the weather channel, it can be scary as hellComment
