Made it to 90, 3rd of the month. Not bad for May.
-
Real warm one today, lot of sunshine today 83 dew 68. Above forecasts which I heard some say was a decent chance of happening. Maybe fuel for stronger storms later?
-
Made it to 94 today. Down to a breezy 85 now. Felt more of a scorcher today than yday, maybe because yday had the relatively cool start. Sun and very warm from early morn today.
-
Damn that hurts lol. I would be finding reasons to go 10 miles north if I lived there. Pays off later I guess. Even up to Brooklyn College is down to 78, with low 90s in NW Queens and the Bronx. Sitting at 93 here
-
Watch for when the sun angle gets slightly lower and goes below some of the trees etc, say around 3pm. Around then it frequency falls while everyone else is steady or rising. I think the effect is worse later in the the summer than now though, so they might just keep pace today..
-
Huge temp jump the last hr to 85, dew 71, HI 91
-
I noticed some forecasts have gone in that direction. Not everyone though, for what it's worth I was watching ch 7 this morn Sam Champion sounded skeptical of that. NWS forecasts for me in the middle of the Bx has went to 91 on Sat and 92 on Sun. Their rain chances on Sun have dropped to 30% as well.
-
More clouds now, but visibility of the moon isn't bad.
-
Partly to mostly sunny now, temp jumped to 78, dew 68. Highest temp of the yr so far
-
Whoa..my head would explode if that happened now lol. I can't fathom it. 53 in July is very impressive. As far as my memory goes, getting to low 60s within the UHI would be considered a cool spell during peak summer. How does a day with full sunshine in July stay below 70
-
Damn..dew point is 8 at Central Park, 14% humidity. As dry as it gets here in May I'd imagine. I guess I'm wrong but wouldn't it be incredibly difficult to get that dry on a NE wind. Not as much moisture as a south wind sure but shouldn't a NE wind pick up at least some humidity off the Atlantic and Sound
-
Philly is still slightly milder than NYC on avg but NYC just has more of the moderating effect of the Atlantic Ocean. Philly is over 50 miles from the coast. NYC has a pretty good growing season considering its latitude...UHI + coastal location. The flip side is getting robbed of some early season warm spells occurring almost everywhere else. We may not have May freezes but Philly can be sunny and 75 to 80 and we are cloudy and 55 for a week.

It was an impressive storm. That wind was really howling all night too. The Major Deegan is/was closed with flooding, and of course flooding and closures in spots on the usual suspects, Bronx River Pkwy, Hutch, Cross County etc. I saw some city vehicles stalled in flooded parking lots at the E 180th St rail yard and Parks Dept hq there off the Bronx River. I wasn't awake to see but looks like some evidence of minor coastal flooding overnight on the Sound as well.
-
87 at EWR wow. I didn't expect such a strong sea breeze off the Sound at LGA, parts of the Bx, NE Queens etc. Long Island, southern Qns & Bk I did as, it was forecasted anyway, but its an impressive Sound sea breeze, not in a good way. Glad I'm not there for it haha.
-
In lower Manhattan now and it sure feels like 80. Home thermometer is 68, a little east of the Bx Zoo. Spring is the only time Central Park can regularly be a NYC hot spot..and probably parts of SI too.
-
Gotta get rid of this NE wind east of Manhattan LGA 60 Central Park 75 Newark 83 JFK 67 on a light S wind.
-
In the bx, rain turned into a hailstorm, pea sized and enough to coat the ground, now the sun's coming back out melting the coating away. Hail did take out a decent amount of cherry blossoms etc
-
Yeah time to close the curtain on this. These dewpoints are brutal too..5 degrees or so, air that dry plus allergy season is a brutal assault on the sinus. Even temps in the 40s have alot more chill to it with humidity so low.
-
Yday was 76, today overacheving with all this sun..sunny and 69..with a little humidity today
-
28 and snow. Got a coating so far..more so than yday. What exactly is this, renegade lake effect snow band?
-
Driving around Pelham Bay, Bx had a windy burst of very heavy rain and sleet, more like hail really. Now light rain and snow, temp rapidly falling, down to 40.
-
...actually may be trash fires set that spread
-
Multiple brush fires in Central Park, looks like all in northern end of the Park
-
Warm night..temps steadily rising since 8pm. From low 60s to 68 at 10:15 pm..matching the high temp from the afternoon
-
Alot of ice here in the bx. Much more than the last time. Thick coating everywhere, a quarter inch ice on some surfaces, but some of that is sleet holding it together so dunno how you measure that. Some sagging trees along Pelham Pkwy. Right now freezing rain and sleet mix and 30.
