  1. Past hour
  2. Astroturf came from the Astrodome. Those hayseeds in TX initially thought you could grow grass indoors. Big fail! And thus plastic grass was born. Funny because I just finished reading Roger Angell's "The Summer Game" where he writes about his first visit to the Astrodome in 1966 to "witness weatherless baseball played on chemstrand grass under an acrylic-painted Lucite sky".
  3. Lots of 100+ across NJ so far today. Currently 95 here.
  4. 101/74 HI 115. Briefly hit 102 a little while ago.
  5. This feels like Knicks game 5
  6. 1:36 pm. Just hit 100.0 here.
  7. Not where I am...it was an utter abomination....but I realize we could have easily had much more snow. The warmth is what it is.
  8. There was a reason the higher-elevation NW burbs became popular for housing after the railroad but before AC. The adiabatic lapse rate is your friend.
  9. These dewpoints are simply unacceptable at these temps. Qatar World Cup weather is not what we need for ours! The only acceptable place for such temps/dews is chasing Bangladesh and with a proper hodograph. Otherwise it ain't right anywhere! I figure with more thunderstorms the humidity will hold in. Now looks like at least low 90s highs drags into next week. Heat index will stay 100 to 105. Guess after about a week of 110 that'll start to feel normal though. Until then enjoy the long weekend. Happy 250 America!
  10. WB 12Z RRFS is forecasting some storms on the 4th.
  11. 96 here in lindenhurst still but dewpoint down to 65, farmingdale airport up to 99.
  12. I remember going to an evening Phills game on a day like this, 1999 I think. Even though the game started at 7:05, the Vet spent all day absorbing the heat and sunlight. Even after the sun had set, the stadium continued to radiate out all that heat like a cement oven for the entire game.
  13. Not bad for a mid-summer easterly flow MCS. Usually 15% is it for wind. We'll see.
  14. Dear god…100, 80 DP!, HI 122!!!
  15. Honestly, 2015-16 was fine outside of December imo
