His a/c went out :-(

Boston hit 102 lol

it kept hitting 104 here until 6:20 pm Now finally dropped into the upper 90s.

How many times has Westhampton hit 100 but Central Park did not?

we need asterisks for these just like we need them for Barry Bonds homerun *records*

Maybe thats why the clouds we had earlier disappeared and it shot up to 106.0 here lol

the mean high temperature could have been 100.0 if NYC wasn't stuck in the mid to upper 90s.

No wonder real estate in Manhattan is so expensive, people go there to beat the heat!!

including yesterday when you topped out at 99 with higher humidity!!

Peaked at 106.0 at my location at 4:36 pm beating the previous location record of 105.6 on July 22, 2011.

JFK holding onto that heavenly NW wind!!

it probably felt even worse because for all that trouble you didn't even make triple digits yesterday lol

Maybe the Park will hit 100 too. My temperature has been oscillating between 102 and 103 and sometimes spiking up to 104 ever since that huge spike to 106.0 at 4:36 PM

I told you so, history can repeat itself!!

we just had a very late and very sharp spike to 106.0 at 4:36 pm and have now beaten our previous record of 105.6 from July 22, 2011 !!!!!! I literally watched it happen.... 104.0 to 104.5 to 104.9 to 105.1 right to 106.0 the uninterrupted sunshine of the past 30 minutes did it !!

102 at Howard Beach wow

we need this to happen with a rain/snow line sometime. 104.7 here approaching my all time record of 105.6 from July 22, 2011.

yup and the sun is back out too

it just hit 104.7 here lol 4:15

Forget the sun, it was 101-102 here even when clouds covered the sun. It jumps to 104 as soon as the sun comes back out lol

On a different note, why are clouds attracted to the sun when it's extremely hot? Clouds are only 10-15% in coverage right now and yet whenever it gets to 103+ somehow the sun is a cloud magnet and the clouds cover it.... this happens every time we get to 100+ in my experience, but why? There weren't even supposed to be any clouds today.

But what I dont understand is, why do the clouds cover the sun, when there are only like 10-15 percent clouds, you'd think the sun would be unobstructed most of the time. Does the sun somehow attract the clouds towards where it is in the sky?

Cuomo is a buffoon and a clown, he said it's a *little warm* today and people should stop whining and saying it's *oppressive* because it's not that hot.

This goes with my earlier observation that you can't have a completely cloud free 100+ day here anymore, but at least the clouds held off until after 3 PM here.
