    Suprised by a little downpour in lower Manhattan, really cooled off from an already moderate day. Dare I say, in late July, its actually chilly outside now.

    Yeah the AQI got went from the "unhealthy for sensitive groups" category to just plain old "unhealthy." Dont see that around here much. Went to work in person near WTC and it was an impressive view from above, saw Hudson Yards become completely obscured as the day progressed and the haze/smoke get lower and lower, closer to ground level by mid afternoon.

    Another day with backdoor kind of feel in mid summer. Cloudy, periods of rain and drizzle all day temps stuck in low 70s.

    Explains the disparity in how this summer is perceived heat wise across the area. June was hot but July has had multiple cloudy, dreary, cool (for July) days. Those breaks in the warmth takes away from that summer feel despite a few hot spells. Jersey ppl havent experience that as much.

    The sun never fully went away here. Got mostly cloudy for a time with sprinkles at worst. Real dark skies stayed in the distance.

    Sounds right..fits the progression up I 95. DC max normal high is 90 now, for most of July. First time they ever had a 90 "normal." LGA tops out at 87 (up 1 degree). Central Park tops out at 85, also up 1 degree. I remember the normal high at the Park used to be 86 though back in the 90s

    Multiple deluges. Flash flooding at multiple spots in the Bronx and beyond. Major Deegan is closed with stranded vehicles waiting for rescue. That alone causes cascading traffic disaster all around and into NJ. Plus the flooding problems on the usual suspects, Bronx River, Hutch, Saw Mill etc.

    82 after a low of 80. Not all that unusual anymore in July to mid Aug, but not many 80 degree June lows I can remember.

    That makes sense, western Queens is very dense and urbanized, and becomes a little less so the futher east you get. Also around LIC you have about 12 miles of land including the most urbanized parts of Brooklyn separating you from the Atlantic, once you get out to GCP, your lined up with Jamaica Bay and now you only have about 6 miles btwn you and the water. I feel similar about Manhattan, during the day it does feel a little less hot compared to just outside of it, I think its cuz there so much shade from tall bldgs. Just out of there esp Queens and the Bx its still very urbanized but without all the shade, so much more sun reaches the ground to bake you. I do noticed those temps really peak on and near roads like 278/BQE, Bruckner, Deegan, Cross Bronx. That kinda what alot of NYC is like away from the water or in a park.
