  1. This is the latest info regarding the storm. Note: This came from Reed Timmer, a storm chaser who has been following the storm very closely.
  2. I believe they need to have a locker room built too
  3. the link doesn't work. It tells me page not found
  4. Jim Cantore: "I never thought I would see another Super Outbreak after 1974. It happened. I never thought I'd see another Perfect Storm. Its happening."
  5. Last weekend I took my 4 year old nephew up to check out the Somers Open House and take photos. In this spot we have a spot where people were able to get the feel of what holding a hose is like and practiced shooting water at a target. The little kid is my nephew, who thought that was so cool! The live burn was just the icing on the cake for him. We also have the former Utility 34 and Utility 89 along with one of the helmets from the first assistant chief.
  6. I'm guessing because they'd be in the same market and it would have to do with territorial fees. Brooklyn is in the NYR back yard basically. I'm not entirely sure myself to be honest. I'll see if I can do some digging and come up with a better answer for you. I saw the report from Katie Strang of ESPN on twitter. Katie Strang ‏@KatieStrangESPN Source confirms Rangers' approval needed for Isles to move to Brooklyn. Hasn't been granted officially, but no apparent issue there
  7. True, what I meant to say was he tried to keep em in Nassau/Suffolk but residents voted down the referendum. The LIRR apparently (I've never used LIRR) stops at Barclays, which is good for their fans. I've also heard reports that adjustments will have to be made to the Barclays as it wasn't originally designed to host a hockey franchise but it can be done and the move has to be approved by the New York Rangers. Some people have said that they won't have an issue with it but no official word has come out yet.
  8. Some photos of the wake. Photos are by Tania Savayan/The Journal News http://www.lohud.com/apps/pbcs.dll/gallery?Avis=BH&Dato=20121024&Kategori=NEWS&Lopenr=310240129&Ref=PH&odyssey=mod%7Cdefcon%7Cimg%7CFrontpage&nclick_check=1
  9. Hence the reason why this is all speculation at this point.
  10. He's always been fairly accurate and he's just relaying what the models are showing. Dislike him/like him, it doesn't matter. Regardless, it's too early to tell right now what it's going to do. The Hurricane center sent up planes in 4 waves today to study the storm and gather data. We'll get a better idea once that data is analyzed and as it comes closer to the US.
  11. From News 12 Westchester's Joe Rao: "Here are the various scenarios: the 12Z European model has Sandy making landfall over the Delmarva Peninsula on Monday morning, then moving northwest to near Williamsport, PA by Tuesday morning. The Navy Model (NOGAPS) has Sandy hitting New York City on Monday morning. The Canadian Global Model brings Sandy to Cape Cod and Boston by Tuesday morning, while the United Kingdom and GFS models both have Sandy scoring a direct hit on coastal Maine on Tuesday night. Normally you look for consistency among the models, and to this end, the European model has been the best in indicating that Sandy would ultimately curve back to the west and adversely impact the US East Coast, while all the other models pushed her out to sea. Now, however, those other models are coming around to the idea of recurvature back toward the coast. So right now, it would seem that somewhere running in a corridor from the Delmarva coast northeast to coastal Maine, in a time frame lasting from Monday morning to Tuesday evening, major storm system sporting sustained winds of possibly 70 m.p.h. along with torrential/drenching rains is going to hit."
  12. As SRS said, it won't be until 2015 when their lease runs out. Wang did everything he could to keep them on LI but the residents killed everything. It will be a 25 year lease once they move.
  13. Four 'Hurricane Hunter' flights scheduled for today for Hurricane Sandy http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAREPRPD_last.shtml
  14. Gotcha, I changed it to just 45 medic/Westchester EMS. Thanks for the heads up, I always thought they had designated vehicles for each.
  15. A brief video of the chopper taking off.
  16. Here we have the live burn demonstration. 2 hand lines were stretched but only 1 was in operation. 1 line was stretched from an engine and the other from their tanker. It was your basic contents of a room and how the fire reacts, etc.
  17. Here we have the live burn demonstration. 2 hand lines were stretched but only 1 was in operation. 1 line was stretched from an engine and the other from their tanker. It was your basic contents of a room and how the fire reacts, etc. Sorry if the photos with actual fire in them look like crap, first time shooting live fire. Probably should have under-exposed more than I did.
  18. I thought you got stuck in Armonk and weren't able to go? lol
  19. Here we have the live burn demonstration. 2 hand lines were stretched but only 1 was in operation. 1 line was stretched from an engine and the other from their tanker. It was your basic contents of a room and how the fire reacts, etc.
  20. In this group we have 45 Medic/Westchester EMS, Utility 5 and the container in which they did a live burn demonstration in. It was your basic contents of a room and how the fire reacts, etc.
  21. Here we have Rescue 38 (Scuba/Dive Team), the Westchester Medical Center Stat Flight medevac as it prepares for take off, and Engine 183
  22. Here we have all the compartments inside of Rescue 20.
  23. I happened to catch this photo gallery on Lohud earlier of a man taking his amphibious vehicle for a ride on the Hudson River earlier today. He "launched" at the Nyack Marina.

  24. Apparently she called up the next day, after someone explained the point of the signs to her, apologizing to the station and felt like an idiot.
  25. I was at the Ossining game. Security was very heavy and well above the norm for a typical game. The game was a little chippy but that was to be expected from a rivalry. The crowd, however, was perfectly fine. There was nothing out of the ordinary to provoke such an event later on. The Village Mayor of Ossining was even in attendance with his husband. I've been to games that were a lot more chippy and the crowd would be a lot rowdier.
