Yeah that Route 1/Turnpike corridor seems to be the hot spot

Those NB numbers are in line with the NE-NJ numbers from Elizabeth, Union, EWR, TEB. I am at 29 and notice a few more days at 88. 89. I am guessing yoi maybe have 12 88/89 days.

Where do they take their measurements? Somewhere on campus I'm assuming?

That New Brunswick number is also very impressive in comparison to surrounding towns. I've got 21 days, just 15 miles or so SE of NB.

That's because the Upton CWA is centered in LI not NYC. Most of North/Central NJ is closer climate wise to NYC than LI is and closer mileage wise as well. If we did a 40 mile radius of NYC much of LI wouldn't even fall within their CWA and much of Mt. Holly's area would.

Not to belabor the point but New Brunswick isn't even in the Upton CWA so it shouldn't be representative of the area....

Right, this has been a very localized phenomenon for just EWR, and looking back to 93, 95, 99 etc. I couldn't find a similar stretch (95 came close but they managed one night in the upper 60s). It also hasn't dropped below 65 since mid June.

Thru 1:51am, Newark's low was 70 degrees.

And thru 7:51am, their low was 71.

So unless they fell below 70 from 7:51am to 8:51am, they did not get below 70.

JFK, NYC and LGA all fell below 70. 67 in NYC, 68 in both LGA and JFK.

While I'm not sure what the record stretch is I noticed EWR has failed to drop below 70 since July 16th (unless in between hours last night it appears the low was 70). They have a shot the next couple nights but have been generally staying a few degrees warmer than guidance so my guess is they won't. Last year they went 21 days in a row, so far they're at 19 at the moment

Not really because EWR has been running a general 3 to 5 sometimes even 6 degrees higher than any other reporting site. Today its been 2 degrees as they've been at 91 and TEB/SMQ are 88-89. CDW is 15 miles away but 86 (I believe its 200-300 feet ASL at the airport where they measure). Linden is no longer used as a surface station

You can see how much of an inland summer it has been by comparing the 90+ highs of EWR and TEB vs the city and its airports. Tony, was Caldwell in line with EWR and TEB? Im trying to think of some of the other urban NJ sites.... Linden, SMQ, BEL, etc.?
