It's on the Ambient Newwork...not sure how to link it.

You didn’t ask me, but it was most likely related to the IA circum-global teleconnector

The New York City area will see its first lows in the 50s this season tomorrow morning.

More likely warm and sunny.

Chilly, wet day with highs around 60(briefly) in town, 50's inland with ~1/2" of rain. More like Oct wx today. Brr!

The coolest air mass is continuing to push into the region. Highs tomorrow and Wednesday will reach the lower and middle 70s. New York City will see lows in the upper 50s to lower 60s. As a result, Central Park will experience its first reading below 60° this season tomorrow morning. the timing matches well with the last two El Niño events: 2015-2016: September 14 and 2023-2024: September 15. Wednesday through Friday will see temperatures recover mainly to the upper 70s. However, additional cool air will likely arrive some time during the next weekend. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +4.5°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +2.9°C for the week centered around September 9. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +4.23°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +2.65°C. The ongoing strong El Niño, will continue to strengthen through the mid-fall. The SOI was -25.91 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.373 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 54% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal September (1991-2020 normal). September will likely finish with a mean temperature near 69.4° (0.2° above normal). Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 1.4° above the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

I had a palm tree we got at a nursery in South Carolina for a few years. Kept in the house in Winter and put it out in the spring till late Fall. Lasted a number of years then died. I think roots got too big for the pot it was in. I seen on internet a few years ago people permanently planted them outside in colder climates. But you have to really insulate them good over the winter if you keep them out along with some kind of like Christmas lights on a strip that throws a little heat. I know it's still on the internet somewhere.

Apparently the Canadian recently had an update, which is why I thought it’d be relevant to share this.

Agreed. I'm just being picky on an internet weather forum.

Whoops, yeah I was looking at the 6 AM and 7 AM temps, guess it dipped down a bit around 3-4 AM. In any case, if we stay above 63 the next 5 hours it will be a new warmest low.

I think he would leave that in a hot second to play again.

Only thing with DHop...I'm wondering how that would work logistically with him already having an assistant job at a college, lol

It's probably a fake. There are some very realistic looking artificial palms trees being made these days. I wanted to get a couple for our backyard but the wife responded with a resounding "no".

Yep and NWNJ cool spots are in the 50-53 degree range currently.

No

Parts of the Catskills already dipping into the upper 40s.

2 things can be true. A winter could be warm and rainy, and it could also have a blizzard.

Check this out Chris https://recordtemps.in/mount-pocono-pennsylvania 5 of the top 10 highest temperatures were recorded in 1911 all the way from May through August what exactly was going on that year and was this the beginning of the 11 year bake off summer cycle? Note that Gemini says that places recorded 100 plus that had never seen it before and the station that recorded it had an elevation of 1988 feet which is higher than the 1915 feet elevation of the airport now! Chris from Gemini The highest temperature ever recorded in [Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/04f0jl), is 103°F (39°C), set on July 3, 1911 according to the [Mount Pocono Area Records](https://recordtemps.in/mount-pocono-pennsylvania). [1, 2] ## Temperature Details * All-time High: 103°F (July 3, 1911) [1] * Other Historic Highs: 99°F on July 4, 1911, and 98°F on July 5, 1911. More standard modern historical tracking lists the peak around 95°F (set on July 31, 1954). [1, 3] * Climate Context: Summers in Mount Pocono are typically mild due to the elevation on the Pocono Plateau, making readings above 95°F rare. [4] If you'd like, I can also share details on the coldest temperature ever recorded in Mount Pocono or its average summer climate. [1] [https://recordtemps.in](https://recordtemps.in/mount-pocono-pennsylvania) [2] [https://kids.kiddle.co](https://kids.kiddle.co/Mount_Pocono,_Pennsylvania) [3] [https://todaysrecordhigh.com](https://todaysrecordhigh.com/stations/mount-pocono-pa) [4] [https://en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocono_Mountains) The summer of 1911 was indeed unusually hot and is remembered as one of the most severe, deadly heatwaves in the history of eastern North America. [1, 2] ## The Killer 1911 Heatwave * * Unprecedented Intensity: An intense, 11-day heatwave descended on the Northeast between July 2 and July 15, 1911. It broke records across New England and the Mid-Atlantic, pushing temperatures past 100°F in areas that rarely saw such heat. [1, 2, 3] * Massive Impact: Without modern air conditioning, the relentless temperatures led to an estimated 380 to 2,000 deaths across the region. It caused train tracks to buckle, knocked out telephone lines, and drove hundreds of thousands of people to sleep outside in parks and on beaches to escape suffocating tenement buildings. [2, 3, 4] * Local Records: In Mount Pocono, the heat peaked on July 3 at 103°F. The surrounding days were also brutal, hitting 99°F on July 4 and 98°F on July 5. [5] * ## Station Elevation The 103°F record was recorded by a historical weather station located directly within the borough of Mount Pocono, which sits at an elevation of 1,988 feet (606 meters) above sea level. [6, 7] Because Mount Pocono sits on the high Pocono Plateau, its elevation typically shields it from extreme summer heat (afternoon averages are usually in the 70s and 80s). This unique altitude makes the triple-digit readings of 1911 stand out as a rare meteorological anomaly.
