All Activity

overnight low of 61, very nice. currently 75/54.

Huh? Over the top can be big heat.

Happy 4th of July to all of you! It should be an outstanding day for all of your outdoor activities with family and friends. Several of our colder spots had low temperatures this morning in the pleasant 50's. Tonight we should see even more spots reaching the 50's for lows by morning. Today we will see much of the day with temperatures in the upper 70's to low 80's - this is a couple of degrees below normal for the 4th of July. We start a slow warming trend tomorrow with our warmest day looking to be Monday with highs into the upper 80's. Still no 90 plus days in our future...in fact in looking at some of the longer-range models we might not see such a day through at least July 20th! The weather gets a bit unsettled with some shower chances almost each day of the new week - although no wash outs!

Live in the moment.

Surprising lack of interest on this. I guess that’s what we get when everyone becomes a model junkie… As if very close proximity to CONUS wasn’t enough, I’m seeing the bulk of ensemble members on GEFS/EPS with a landfall within 84 hrs (assuming it gets named) on the east coast.

We’re rooting for you to be right. It has to happen eventually…

The 108° high in Mineola was in 2010. There wasn’t any data for July 2011. Then the station shut down right after that. July 4th, 1978 was the only year there with a high in the upper 50s.

Over the top warmth though. Not a record breaking look.

Remember when summer month anomalies of like +1 to +2 were considered very warm? Now it’s like oh, another +4.4?

Congratulations on capturing a plane that can deliver an operational Burger King to any terrestrial theater of operation on this planet within 24 hours.

588 at d15 is torch heights. Even today will be near normal at many sites despite the COC. I just wouldn’t be slam dunking either way at this point. We’re going to come out of the first week with some relatively big + anomalies for July.

1995: 19 members of a single family were struck by a lightning bolt during a Fourth of July fireworks display in Visalia, NC. A bolt of lightning struck a construction crane, crossed wet ground and surged through a fence, affecting 70 people altogether. Fortunately, no one was killed or seriously injured. It is believed to be the most people ever struck by a single bolt of lightning. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History) wow.... 1988 - A dozen cities in the eastern U.S. reported record low temp- eratures for the date, including Atlantic City NJ with a reading of 40 degrees. Fifteen cities in the north central U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date, including Glasgow MT and Havre MT with readings of 102 degrees. (The National Weather Summary) absolutely amazing considering how hot that summer became.... 1911: The northeastern U.S. experienced sweltering 100-degree heat. The temperature soared to 105 degrees at Vernon, VT and North Bridgton, ME, and to 106 degrees at Nashua, NH, to establish all-time records for those three states. North Bridgton, ME also had 105 °F on July 10, 2011. Afternoon highs of 104 at Boston, MA, 104 at Albany, NY, and 103 at Portland, ME, were all-time records for those three cities. Boston, MA recorded its highest temperature of 104 °F. (all time) (Ref. NOAA Boston Weather Events) (Ref. Lowest and Highest Temperatures for the 50 States) (The Weather Channel) over the top heat on July 4, 1911? These temperatures are absolutely nuts lol-- did NYC hit 100? 1825: A severe storm of tropical origin swept up the Atlantic Coast during the first week of June 1825 with reports of significant damage from Florida to New York City. Shipping logs told of a disturbance at Santo Domingo on May 28th and Cuba on June 1st. Gales were reported at St. Augustine, Florida on the 2nd. The Norfolk and Portsmouth Herald reported "undiminished violence" from the gale force winds for 27 hours, ending on June 4th. The effect of the storm reached well inland. Washington had cold, heavy rain all day on the 4th with high winds laying the crops in the vicinity. The wind also tore up trees by the roots in front of the State House in Philadelphia. This storm impacted the New Jersey Coast and the Long Island area as well with high winds and a two-foot storm surge. A Columbian frigate was driven ashore as were many smaller boats. The largest loss of life occurred along the Long Island shore when a schooner capsized. The entire crew of seven was lost. wow a cat 1 when it hit Long Island on July 4th, do we have a track for this Tony?? 1825 - A hurricane struck Long Island NY leveling trees and causing damage to ships. The early season hurricane, which originated around Cuba, caused major damage along the Atlantic coast from Charleston SC to New York City. Many were lost at sea. (David Ludlum) Highs: EWR: 105 (1949) NYC: 102 (1949) LGA: 100 (1949) JFK: 101 (2010) New Brnswck: 100 (1966) Extreme heat on July 4th in all the classically hot summers !!!!!

I don't recall anyone saying cold.

It's wild that many of these coops are still around Chris! But the one at Mineola isn't any longer is it (the one that recorded 108 in July 2011?) It would be interesting to see what they would have recorded in that June 2025 extreme heatwave.

588dm mean over SNE d15. Is that supposed to be cold?

June was top 5

Thanks we're one off the lead for 100+ and two off the lead for 98+ I think 1983 was the only one at JFK that had two different heatwaves get to 100+, one was in July and the other one was in August.

we are also farting out top 5's, you're making my point. :/

JFK hit 100+ on all three of those days Don? I thought it was 2 while it was 3 at NYC?

They just don’t get it

I wouldn’t rule out top 5 yet.

They're getting rich, hope this helps

114 years ago today One of the hottest New England days on record…especially north of Pike All time records for VT and NH (ME was 6 days later) BOS 104 PWM 103 CON 102 ORH 102 (old site but only 100+ on record)

Today will be the 13th 90 degree day here, and the 11th for MLI.
