  1. Past hour
  2. Believe it or not that’s the worst scenario for NY airports.
  3. They will crowd themselves out, don't worry the thousands will be down to the hundreds in like 10 years. seriously though, I wouldn't worry about it. It's nature, baby!
  4. Incredible. Big hole to climb out of for this winter, it’s possible as it happened last year, but this year it may be harder.
  5. Overall, it was a wet June regionwide, most notably at Morgantown (see below). The 8.65" of rainfall there was good for 4th place overall, with records dating all the way back to 1872 [albeit with some gaps]! 1939 must have been insanely wet. Most other climate sites generally finished between about 12th and 25th place in the ranking of wettest Junes. I suspect some areas outside of the official observations, especially in far southwest Pennsylvania and portions of West Virginia, saw 10" or more of rainfall this month.
  6. Revisiting June, finished at 73.1F at PIT, which, as noted, was the warmest since observations have been taken at the airport, and tied for 11th warmest overall. Elsewhere across the region, it tied for 4th warmest in the Morgantown area threaded record. It should be noted there is no data for 1943, which appears to have been a very warm month. 1934, which holds the top spot in both the Pittsburgh and Wheeling station threads, is tied for 15th place with 1949 & 2014 (72.6F) in the Morgantown threaded record. DuBois, with a shorter POR, finished tied for 4th warmest with 1976. A little skeptical of the ranking for 1976, seeing as that is said to have been the coldest summer on record at PIT, but that's what the official data shows. The record of 69.2F was set just last year. Wheeling finished tied with last year for 7th warmest June. There's a pretty big gap in the records here between 1953 and 1998; however, there really only appear to be a few candidate Junes for inclusion on this list in that time frame (1967, 1994, perhaps 1991). Another 0.1F would have raised this year to 4th warmest, as there is currently a 3-way tie for 4th place (1952, 1949, 1921) at 72.9F. New Philadelphia, Ohio, another short POR site, finished as 2nd warmest behind 2016. Yes, those 2016 readings were coming in quite high there relative to most places.
  7. Got three sprinkles on my car. Overcast here now.
  8. looks like it's setting up north and south of NYC-big screw zone in the middle
  9. And a little pop-shower over has manifested over me giving me a couple hundreds more and now have 0.83" in the bucket. Temp slowly dropped to 85 but dp is a solid 80.
  10. A legit question/ concern.. last year being a huge mast year for acorns.. all along the edge of and even deep in the woods are new little Oak saplings. The kind you see in lawns that can be mowed. But I mean there’s hundreds, if not thousands in the woods.. way too many to pull . Will all of these become new Oak trees or will they die? I mean I’ve never seen this many before and it’s concerning
  11. That's why I was hesitant to point it out. Always a chance for an all-day cloud and rain event. Even a couple of hours of sun would have easily sent the temperature up to 80F with mid-morning readings in the mid 70s. But probably too little, too late today.
  12. Its not anecdotal....winters are definitely warming more...my guess is because there is so much moisture around during summer these days.
  13. Thunderstorm Watches issued - Currently a hazy and clouding-up 89 IMBY with dp 80. Ugh.
  14. We usually have at least one GTG among SNE members, usually around the holidays. We have them in CT sometimes....you should come if we have it down there. Most of them are in Worcester because of its central location...its relatively equidistant to many locales. Yea, totally sarcastic...obviously I know there is a great deal of validity to your posts.
  15. Appears the 80+ streak may already be in jeopardy. Not ruling it out yet.
  16. yeah.. it's largely un-noteworthy. But I think there's some value in tracking it climate-wise. My feel is that this has a shot at being a substantially above normal July. I don't think we've had a lot of July's like that in recent years - my impression is anecdotal, but it seems we're more impressively above normal during winter as of late. KBOS was 89.6 yesterday and again a few minutes ago today. Rounding?
  17. I had a strike shake the house when the main storms weren’t even here. Then very heavy rain and some garden variety thunder/lightning later.
