we're going to have so much mold and fungus from this
-
What do you think of the possibilities of the two ridges connecting with each other (creating a ridge bridge as it were lol.)
-
Yes that HI will be miserable for us. It was a few years ago that JFK set their HI record (on back to back days!), both days had a high of 99 and a HI of 117, a true weekend from Hell (complete with power outages!)

1980 summer here we come :-)
-
The Euro might be wrong about that third one, the NWS has us going into a drier and warmer pattern starting on May 11th (Mothers Day) for an extended period.
-
But the X link Tony posted indicated a dry summer for us? Why are these cutoffs becoming much more common, is it because of climate change too? Back in the 80s and 90s our Mays were much warmer and drier and we didn't see cutoffs after April.
-
Drier and Warmer weather for an extended period likely to arrive just in time for Mother's Day (May 11th).

The only two summers in the 1970s that jump out at me for heat were 1973 and 1977. Before then, our historically hot summers occurred in an 11 year cycle (1944, 1955, 1966.) 1977 still has our hottest two week stretch on record. Of course the 1980s and 1990s were much hotter, 1980 got things started with a historic CONUS heatwave. If I remember correctly the following summers were very hot: 1980, 1983, 1988, 1991, 1993, 1995, 1999, 2002, 2010-2013 Actually that 11 year solar cycle has still prevailed for summer heat, with a few other years thrown in. Map these years for summer heat: 1933, 1944, 1955, 1966, 1977, 1988, 1999, 2010. I think that pattern was broken in 2021 when we didn't have that kind of heat.

The climate models were wrong, they actually predicted an average of 3 100 degrees annually for NYC by 2045 and I just don't see that happening.
-
it's going to change the Monsoon season in Asia that's for sure, computer simulations show it moving south with SO2 being added to the atmosphere.
-
That would be an interesting twist, use fusion to both replace fossil fuels and remove carbon from the air (and also from the water, I see that is already underway-- carbon in the water leads to coral acidification so it's important to remove.) We'll also be removing some water vapor from the atmosphere (another greenhouse gas) and use that water vapor to make drinking water for developing nations. This is also important, as water vapor is as much of a villain as carbon dioxide is.
-
The Yankees are playing in this weather lol.
-
The comparison to the great K-T event is what would finally fix our climate change and human overpopulation problem, both in one shot.
-
meanwhile the steady rain is back here
-
how do you feel about these ideas to drop insolation 1-2 percent by introducing SO2 particles into the upper atmosphere? it would have to be done on a yearly basis, beginning around 2030
-
that's probably why the rich guys want to leave the planet John.
-
I went less humidity but more heat.
-
it goes beyond that, look into the gap in 100 degree highs at JFK, it's been increasing, currently we have set the new record for the longest gap in 100 degree days in station history. Ever since 1966 the gap has been growing larger. The oceans do absorb the heat but hopefully that is about to come to an end and JFK will once again get 100 degree days with a shorter gap like we used to before. The other sign is the complete absence of 7+ day heatwaves since 2002. These were more common in the 70s, 80s and 90s but we haven't had a 7+ day heatwave in NYC since 2002 (when we had two) and 1999 (when we also had two).

ended here before 2 pm
-
I can understand things being canceled Sunday, the Yankees game was played after a rain delay and it rained for much of the game, but Saturday was a mostly sunny day here and nothing should have been canceled that day.
-
Do these weather apps have radar on them though? They really should not be canceling anything unless something is about to hit the area within the hour. It's been raining pretty hard here for the last 30 minutes or so.
-
I thought we'd have most of our rain tonight, so this is a bit of a bonus.
-
Yeah I don't get all the whining, it's raining when it's supposed to be raining. It wasn't supposed to rain that much over the weekend anyway.
-
it's raining pretty steadily here
-
lol this is weird, do you realize I wrote the exact same thing you did but in the ENSO thread? Nature's forms of balancing may well be saturated. They are the only thing that held back a Venus type runaway greenhouse effect. That dam may have broken.
