58? Where's that?
-
I’m in Suffolk county LI did well with this morning storm
-
When stms are over the Lake, many times I get a blast of fog from the strong outflow. Lake Superior water temps are well below normal right now. Warm, humid air creates a lot of fog in Spring/early Summer.
-
Philly seems to be ground zero. Tommorow 104 with Dewpoints in the high 60s/low 70s, heat index near 115
-
0.13" from this morning and only 1.02" for the entire month of June. The entire south shore is dry as a bone! Currently only 81/72

Where did people get thunderstorms??

Two Harbors' mean 53.9 (avg 56.3) is the 11th coldest temp, tied with 2019, out of 65 unique temps (midpoint temp is 56.6) in the record since 1894. 4.63" of precip (avg 4.23"). DLH mean 60.7 (avg 61.2) is 26th warmest out of 79 unique temps (midpoint temp is 59.0) since 1874. 4.28" of precip (avg 4.39). I looked at a PWS stn that is near the old wx bureau office location in the downtown area. It had an avg of 59.6. Duluth arpt data in the Threadex record starts in 1941. Near lake, and over the hill data can be a little different with the diurnal range.

93/74/103 where im working

Sea breeze as expected doing its thing today. 80 here, 75 on the barrier island. Up to 90 a mile inland. Water's ice cold from upwelling again. Back down to 58. There will be a lot of water rescues over the next few days.

Yeah...agreed. I wasn't interested in nailing down - per se - where it is we "actually" are... full disclosure ( there's alien technology being hid from us!!! repent repent) no but to be honest, I'm wondering if CR can be trusted or might have known this or that. I mean I don't know anymore. This f era of reality and civility ... it's got a problem. One that is almost as big as GW and it's entirely self-manifesting at species' level.

Meh, only 86F at my house right now, not impressed. Leaving for DCL at 4am to beat the traffic. My game cam up there reported 82F at 11am.

Hot outside? CONFIRMED

11AM Round up New Brnswck: 88 BLM: 87 EWR: 87 ACY: 86 LGA: 86 TEB: 86 TTN: 86 PHL: 85 JFK: 85 NYC: 84 ISP: 81

.67” this morning with loud thunder. A nice surprise

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
Typhoon Tip replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
See ...there are baseline flow constructs around the entire hemisphere that are geo-physically forced. Example, western North America. The Rockies cordillera extends from Alaska deep into and through Mexico, over the western continent. That imposes a backward exertion on the prevailing westerlies of the Northern Hemisphere. The flow is directed up and over the terrain. However, it takes longer to do so than the ~ 9 hour, time dependency of the Coriolis parameter at mid latitudes; in a reference frame that induces clockwise rotation, a that force acts to turn the rising flow toward the left. This creates a subtle but significant background ridge signal that is always in place ... so long as there is always westerly prevailing flow. This is a baseline construct... This means that western N/A is favored to have heat before the eastern geographical regions of the continent. It is why the Gulf Coast can, though rarely ..., experience 0 F in the winter, despite the deep latitude. This geologic circumstance enhances cold potential and realizes a drive sending colder air mass from Canada that far S. So, with all that in mind ... since western N/A is prone to ridging, they are also favored to heat. It's like being born on second base for having wealth descendancy, and though daddy claims he didn't help his kids succeed, they still end up retiring somehow by 35. This happens all over the world, both hemispheres. There are geological regional circumstances 'built in' that favor cool vs warm, relative to the whole latitude in question and mean. And where ever is warm, there is a quicker and more frequent recurrence of heat. But here's the thing that makes this argumentative - but really shouldn't if one understands the "emergence" ... Because there are circulation changes occurring ..however subtle or gross, notwithstanding ... this may and probably does expose new routes for cool vs warm biases overall. Western Europe appears to be victim to this, as Saharan processed kinetic extreme air is being drawn up across the Iberian Peninsula ... where it can assault as far N as the UK and eventually Scandinavian latitudes. The UK is ~ to Calgary, Canada ... so we're seeing temps nearing 40 C ... that's a bit of an emergence considering the frequency uptick -
New around here? Lol It’s heat. Of course DC will reach 100 today, and probably will for the next 5 days

90/74

I believe that Leesburg (KJYO), but that matches the Poolesville mesonet site well.

I partially blame local media outlets too. They can put more emphasis on other sites when nessasary. Or stop saying things like, NYC has not experienced 100+ since 2012. Central Park hasnt. There have been multiple offical 100 degree readings within NYC at LGA and even JFK. Plus plenty others where ever Con Ed puts a thermometer for what its worth. They probably just don't give it much thought, since many do not have decades of real life context about NYC climate records like people here. They work in NYC media because it was the best job offer.

90/75 w/a 100F HI currently at IAD.
