gfs still pumping out at least mid-90's for Thursday; before the storms

Slow moving... I wonder how much rain has fallen in that area.

Sorry, Wiz

55 degrees at 1:45pm on this lovely Friday the 13th.

I heard you do let His Holiness slide...

Showers in morning but light amounts overall

Cocked ?

It certainly hasn't warmed up much this year. Colder seems to be the predominant pattern since last September, relative to the average global warming. I wouldn't be surprised if something close to last Winter happens this coming Winter.

Backdoor cold front appears to have settled over the MD 97 corridor west of the bay, then extends along the US 50 corridor on Delmarva. Pretty evident on mesonet data. Looks like a wind shift and spike just before the front crosses. Someone is going to get dumped on.

I think it looks pretty good with a gradual warm up. Late week could be hot.

Wet morning tomorrow.

Yeah not much rain to speak of this weekend. Way over-hyped

Next 7 days looks like a lot more of the same. Tons of clouds and meh temps

it was nice until noon when the clouds came in. The high was 80 here.

That sometimes happens here too, the sea breeze gets here after 3 or 4 pm But listen, the sea breeze isn't all that it's cracked up to be, all it does it make it more humid. May I introduce you to July 4, 2010, when it was 101 degrees with a 45 dew point at JFK? That is FAR better than any sea breeze, you don't sweat in it and it's GREAT running weather!

forget sea breezes, a westerly wind, 101 degrees and a 45 dew point is far better and great running weather ! all a sea breeze does is make it more humid....

Rather intense cell in lower DE on a boundary near Crosskeys and Pusey Crossroads https://radar.weather.gov/station/kdox/standard

you would have loved 1993, 1999, 2002 and 2010 lol.

hopefully 100 and no more rain, we don't live in Ireland and don't need any more rain.

Beginning in June a SW wind isn't all that cool here.... maybe for Fire Island, but a SW wind has a very short trajectory over water here and I've seen it hit 90 many times here on a SW wind in June and 100 on a SW wind in July.

But that doesn't improve SAD. You can also get Vitamin D from fish and milk, but the real benefit of the sun is improving mood.

JFK gets a bad rap, but it's hotter around here than it is in a park, we're in an urban area-- this isn't Fire Island lol.

I trust the temperatures near JFK a lot more than I trust either LGA or EWR. JFK temperatures are more natural and what I would expect to be normal for the area without human interference. LGA and EWR seem inflated..... I can personally speak to inflated temperatures near LGA because of congestion. My car thermometer records a 5-10 degree spike when I exit the Mid Town Tunnel and enter Queens and this spike lasts until I get on the Grand Central. It's more than UHI, it's the large number of people driving cars and all the car exhaust that artificially boosts temperatures in that region. We didn't have this kind of car congestion in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, etc. It's why it stays higher at night around LGA too.

1993: Four inches of rain fell in one hour on Lenox, IA as the Great Mississippi Flood of 1993 was beginning. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History) and one of our greatest summers of all time !! JFK: 95 (1983) looks like the great summer of 1983 began around this time too

hopefully that stuff stays to our north and west like it did in 1993 and 1995. ring of fire is what I associate with extreme heat (hence the term fire lol).
