All Activity

I'll take it in a heartbeat.

Yes gonna take Robert Moses to ocean to the loop for sure.

Thanks. But this graph has avg for entire summer well over 0C? This is far warmer than what Chris Martz was suggesting about the site of the collapse (i.e., only occasionally reaching to barely above freezing), isn’t it?

Ocean Pky to the loop ..easy

You can’t mow with wet grass . It tears the grass blades

20% chance of showers today. Nothing long lasting or worth changing plans over, but a slight chance one could briefly pop up.

We got 0.27” overnight. That messed up my day so we are changing plans.

It is, but both sites are in different Himalayan subregions with different topography and wind exposure.

I’m going to a bbq in Atlantic beach. Very close to where the tornado touched down. Not looking forward to the drive from Babylon

its been a risk with the ULL spinning over Maine and HP building in from the GL and the NNE flow now - tomorrow looks like the mostly sunny day.

I agree. A lot of non frozen precipitation seems likely for many.

A warm winter is okay. At least it's warm enough to do outdoor activity. The most boring winter is the one that is too cold to go outside, but too warm for snow. Think 2018-19 or 2024-25. No one really wants those. If it's not going to be a good snowy winter, might as well go all out torch, like 2011-12, 2019-20, 2022-23, or 2023-24.

OKX just sent this on X (formerly Twitter) A few showers are around this morning, mainly for portions of Long Island and Connecticut. These areas will also see more clouds than sun through the afternoon. Western areas will see breaks of sun and should remain mostly dry today, though an isolated shower is possible.

Thanks, Don. Does that big a difference in temps for just 160 km away and 164 meters/538 feet elevation jibe with what you’d expect? Dry adiabatic rate is 3C/5.4F per 1000 feet, correct? So, on 2nd thought, maybe?

0.02” stopped you from doing yard work?

Although this 12Z 9/5/26 CFSv2 ens. AAM fcast is THE highest I’ve seen for the entire 35 day period, I realize that it has a + bias, especially the further out in the forecast period. I still haven’t seen anything forecasted at 4+ to verify even closely and even many of the 3+ forecast days have been overdone. This has 4+ for all 4 members by day 11 (Sept 15th), which along with the 0Z 9/5/26 forecast is at the earliest I’ve ever seen that high. It has 3+ starting on Sep. 8th. But as I alluded to, many runs had 3+ for all of mid to late Aug and all of Sept and few, if any, hit 3+ since mid Aug. it even dipped briefly to just below +2 in late Aug! In this case, I expect it will reach 3+ within a few days based on how steep it has it rising now. But regarding it hitting 4+ Sep. 15th or even after, I’ll believe it when I see it!

The Everest base camp is about 160 km from the site of the bedrock/glacial collapse that occurred last month.

Florac, France, where September records go back to 1861, has recorded its three hottest September temperatures on record during the current heatwave. September 4, 1966 saw its first 30C (86F) or above September temperature on record.

Didn’t hear or see anything about rain today but of course it’s raining over my borough Brooklyn

Not that it is uncommon, but seeing 85+ forecasted at the end of my 10 day in mid-sept makes me want to hurl

I’m admittedly confused. Are we looking at the temp. data for the same place? Per my post from 3 days ago: “Highest and lowest recorded temperatures at Everest Base Camp (EBC) depend on which camp and which dataset, but reliable observations come from automatic weather stations (AWS) installed at the South Base Camp (Nepal side, ~5,364 m) and other nearby high-altitude stations. Summary of best-available values (observations and published AWS records, through May 2024): Highest recorded air temperature South (Nepal) Base Camp AWS: about −1.0 °C to +1.0 °C on the warmest days in late spring/early summer (typically May). Many published station summaries and expedition logs report peak values near 0 °C; a commonly cited peak is ~+0.5 °C. Slightly warmer spot measurements in sunlight or lower-elevation tent sites can exceed +1 °C briefly, but sustained, instrumented air-temperature peaks at the official South Base Camp are around 0 °C to +1 °C. @donsutherland1@Typhoon Tip

Folks would be wise to architect winter expectations around higher than normal precipitation, only. Leave snow out of it. Too many reasons to go liquid rather than frozen.

.02 bd 57 degrees. Thanks coc k! You delivered a beaut ! Just wet enough to not be able to do any yard work
