It is harsh on the body, no question. I don't know if "cheering" is the right word. I mean sure... there's always someone, but for most, it's the novelty of witnessing an extraordinary event. We nick 100 F on our big heat days, with enough frequency. But getting a possibility for every site to be 101 to 104 is definitely novel enough to the area to take note. It's a special anomaly ... it seem there's an "air" ( pun hopefully annoying haha) of synergistic heat bomb about this. There are several factors that are likely propel the "rogue wave" nature of this today. One observation of note ... there was a peculiar temperature rise of 2 to 3 F at several home sites around the area, which took place at 2am, after we had settled off to 74-ish. Back up to 77... and rose decimals per 5 minute click off through dawn. Now, 90 and 91s are common at 8:30. This is how synergy manifests. I don't believe the models are seeing these idiosyncratic positive feed-backs... Anyway, human curiosity takes over. There's also a ton of scientific significance to novel scenarios. But imho, I don't think the average observer of this is wantonly cheering on a injury - and if they are, they should be guided to jumping off the cliff first as their poetic justice.

Final low temperatures for yesterday and preliminary low temperatures for today:

Wed - night / Thu

You are correct. This is the first time that JFK reached 90° at 8am in June. So they could reach 100° before noon if the sea breeze can hold off. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/plotting/auto/?_wait=no&q=153&network=NY_ASOS&zstation=JFK&month=jun&sday=0624&eday=1231&var=max_tmpf&_r=t&dpi=100&_fmt=png

86.0

June wasnt that hot in 2013 it was a 2 day heat spike. The heat was concentrated in a 3 week period in July 7/4 - 7/23

Scattered lows 90s popping up on PWS sites before 8:30am impressive..

8AM: JFK: 90 EWR: 90 New Brnswck: 89 PHL: 88 ISP: 86 LGA: 86 TEB: 86 ACY: 86 NYC: 85 TTN: 83 BLM: ** nearest is 83

Yea, our climo this close to the ocean lags the solar calendar by a good month...which is why our cold peaks from about 1/20 to 2/1 and snowfall from about 2/1 to 2/10...right up to warm-tushy-car-seat season.

Dewpoint down to a crisp 72, lowest since Sunday morning for me

High of 71 means you know the dewpoint won't be any higher than that lol Considering I spent most of the day yesterday with a dewpoint near 80 degrees it's going to feel downright dry!

Getting ready to make history today!

Newark and JFK both 90.

Looks like our relief should come the way of a potent little backdoor cold front that sweeps through Thursday evening.

No idea. I run the old cosole. It's very reliable, not to say the digi one isn't, but mabe shoot Davis an email and ask.

Low of 75 here. Upton has a high of 71 both Thurs and Fri here-that will feel great.

It was me that reported that my Davis Vantage Pro 2 reported a 81.8F dew at 2:45pm. I questioned that because it just intuitively seemed too high. Unless you're in a cornfield out west, you just don't see dews that high. Then I discovered something just now. I have 2 consoles reporting off my 1 station but the new LED console is showing a dew 2F higher than my older Davis console in the other part of the house. So I was watching the new LED console. Why would 2 consoles report different dews off of the same station. All other parameters seem correct? Any ideas? In any event, I'm going to go with the old console. In that case, my max dew would have been 79.8F

Transcended the point low by 1C - 24C/76F. Tues I was peg to be 26C high, every check it's increasing: went to 29C, now 30C. I'm soaring the last hour as I'm not far from 30C now! The last 3 night lows have been 25C (more like 26C, 80% of that overnight), 23C, and 24C. WUN nailed yesterday's details with exact high/low/full sun/RH, etc. from a forecast 4 days before on Fri. I noticed Toronto at 9:30 last night was still a insane 33C/90F Humidex 43C/110F.

86/77 in Arlington. Dog is already refusing to finish a full walk.

I was outside of ISP about 30 minutes ago and it was already 86, it was actually cooler on the north shore, my PWS was still in the upper 70’s at that time. Normally the opposite.

Seaweed Beach sounds great

HIt 99.7ºF here in Lowell yesterday. Can't remember if I've ever recorded 100. My overnight low was 77.5. Today's forcast high is 103.

I saw Christmas stuff going out at Hobby Lobby this weekend.

My sister's at her house on Pt Judith this week and said it was cold on her morning run. Haha. Looks like the high was only 78-79 yesterday on a few wunderground sites there.
