  1. He was better than the alarmists calling for 30+ storms. I said this even before the season started last year, predicting numbers that high is STUPID and will make people not take you seriously. If you want to predict 20+ fine, but don't make predictions that go into uncharted territory.
  2. I believe we're switching to a -AMO and I doubt we see the extreme level of activity that we saw in 2005 and 2020 for a long long time. A very hot and dry summer is MUCH more likely than a crazy hyperactive tropical season.
  3. some of those 30 *storms* weren't actually storms.... they were subtropical. These numbers are getting overinflated because what would never be considered storms back in the 60s-80s are named as such now. In realistic terms, I don't believe it's even possible to have 30 named TC here. We need a much stricter definition of what constitutes a TC.
  4. 30+ is stupid, no one should ever make a call like that. It's like calling for 100 inches of snow in NYC. It's just -NOT- ever going to happen.
  5. I think we're in the process of going to -AMO, the +AMO has gone on for too long, 30 years is a normal time for it to switch.
  6. I should too but I thought the sea breeze would have kicked in here by now lol. It's cloudy/overcast here and still 82 degrees lol
  7. 100+ with low humidity is GREAT running weather! I wonder if we can pull up the maps for April 7, 2010 (my favorite summer and the earliest 90 degree day), There was a big difference between Long Beach and JFK that day too. I want to see if we east of JFK were even hotter than JFK was and closer to Central Park's temperature.
  8. I wonder if JFK could be cooler and more susceptible to sea breezes than the area just to the east? I'm over 2 miles from the ocean and the JFK asos must be right near Jamaica Bay.
  9. did you see the maps I just posted? we overpowered the ocean, I want it to be like this ALL summer, on NNW winds Lynbrook 85 degrees Long Beach 61 degrees lol
  10. we're southeast of JFK and well over 80 degrees, that JFK asos must be right over the water, Don.
  11. and this one, Lynbrook 84 (hit a high of 85) look in the lower right corner, that 68 is so close by lol that NNW wind is doing some heavy lifting
  12. Yes 83 outside and 86 inside my house lol
  13. it's a little more complicated though, it's 83 here and you have to be right on the barrier islands or right on the ocean to get the cooler air Look at this 83 and 69 so close to each other
  14. This is really weird. We're spiking here now with full sunshine, 82.6 degrees I checked other weather stations in the area, everyone is tightly clustered between 81 and 82 even though JFK is only 76. Checked 6 weather stations including ones I trust who have been online for 20 years or more. Very windy and very warm! This is as warm as it was on March 30th here, but more humid. The dew point is 61 here.
  15. Yes, I'm not sure what the dew point is, but they said humidity is 46%
  16. The Yankees game in Tampa is about to start and it's also 87 degrees there.
  17. You need to live on the south shore, it fell into the low 70s, now up to 76 again. The snow difference isn't that bad, none of us get that much snow anyway lol.
  18. lol are you sure thats accurate? anyway it's been 96 degrees before in April and felt really good (very low humidity and deep blue skies).
  19. why it's not even humid lol it hit 80.1 here at 2:27 pm and has since dropped off, I think the sea breeze has come in.
  20. what are you even wearing? switch to tshirt and shorts
  21. yes nice offshore wind, got up to 80 here
  22. a lot of these TV weather people don't know any science at all, there are some exceptions like Lee Goldberg of course.
  23. it will never be completely predictable-- too much chaos at play.
