Question
I would like to know if there was any inclement weather the evening of
September 30, 2010 in Jamaica, NY

Answer
John,

I know that it was rather windy that evening, and some rain was moving into the region. However, I don't have exact details because the hourly observations that we get in our system are purged after 72 hours. We will eventually be able to retrieve that from the National Climatic Data Center, but that will not occur for a few more weeks.

Sincerely,
