Got up to 103 here last June and 100 last July, but 105 (in Queens) in July 2011 is still my personal all time highest, it’d be nice to break that eventually.

The media figured out the term ‘heat dome’ and now they’re using it ad nauseum like they do with polar vortex in the winter.

Looks like a typical stretch of summer heat to me. Seems when it comes to weather we’ve lowered the bar on what constitutes extreme.

Where exactly? Which day(s)? Generic statements like this do not cut it these days. The details count and the models can parse these out much better these days. From a MSM media standpoint, it likely is going this way, "NYC is going to be very hot, so that mean *all* the East Coast is going to be a super torch." Never underestimate the power of thinking a location is the center of the universe!

Wonder if it will rival July 1995? And yeah, imma gonna say it… You know how that following winter turned out!

Good news

widespread 100s are likely

seems like a no brainer, the world is on fire

its been record warmth throughout the country and its just the start

It's all dangerous in the end. The prefixes and adjectives used these days are out of control. My biggest pet peeve is "catastrophic." It's always that now. You never see, "severe," "heavy," or "disastrous," referring to impact or damage. Impact and damage are scalable, but we choose to throttle to the max all the time. That's counterproductive in the end. More is not always better.

This will be epic I'm stoked

Chris Sowers (Winter weenie) is back in Philly after a short move to Fla. And on FB.... https://www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/local/2026/05/14/philly-weather-guy-chris-sowers-is-returning-will-he-be-back-florida-6abc-west-palm-beach/90074898007/ Upcoming heat wave:

Thankfully it didn't stop us from having a cold/snowy winter.

The thing in this case, it's not a uniform slam dunk. This is not a classic Bermuda High set up, nor it is a dry solid sfc NW flow (a la Aug 2, 1975). Eastern and western sections need to be treated differently. You can't just gloss over it all. The difference between 90 and 100 deg readings is non-trivial. You can't just say "hot" and leave it at that. There are important details to be worked out here. The above factors preclude going high-end record heat across the board at this range still. Of course, the MSM doesn't treat it this way. HOT HOT HOT and the world is ending....

Let's dew it.

I knew you were showing praise. I just wanted to make sure I have not stirred the pot somehow w/ a previous post and it resulted in a tangent issue.

What streak?

honestly with the dry soil and the right wind direction, we can sneak one in if we are in the upper 90s by 1pm. It happened a couple weeks back

good

I remember playing little league baseball in 100 degree temps. It was awful.

My AC isn't working right

Very much depends on what shit the bed on it. Anywhere from $250—$3,000

Send me seeds. Along with a jackhammer to get them into what was once soil.

Isn't it fair to say that vortex 95 has been handed the baton by BrooklynWx99 ?
