  1. From what I have seen, Saturday, Sunday and Monday will be mostly sunny (a great weekend!), Tuesday will be partly cloudy and Wednesday and Thursday will be mostly cloudy. No rain at all though during that period.
  2. Isn't it ironic though how the SST were so much cooler in June when we had the 100+ heat at the coast? Maybe SST are not that important when it comes to extremely high temperatures (but more important when it comes to elevated mins and higher dew points and humidity?)
  3. this is why going by average temperatures is such a bad idea, 2024 was in no way shape or form record warm and last summer was nowhere near as hot as this summer has been.
  4. this is why going by average temperatures is such a bad idea, this summer is MUCH hotter than last summer was.
  5. We may never see heat like 1953 again in our lifetimes simply because the climate has become wetter. As a matter of fact climate change should be framed more in terms of moisture than temperature. The moisture change is much more significant than any change in temperatures especially during the summer.
  6. there's some great summers on that list, 1953 really stands out-- three out of four months at or above 100? (JJAS) I don't see 1983 on this list, did EWR hit 100 when JFK did in July and August and what about in September when NYC hit 99?
  7. my electric bills are around 150 in the summer, I only turn on the a/c in my bedroom. power bills are always much worse during the winter
  8. 1993 was so much of a hotter summer than any other summer on this list. and yet 2010 was even hotter than 1993 but isn't on this list
  9. onshore? I thought it would be cooler with some awesome dry Canadian air coming from north, lots of sunshine, low humidity, etc.
  10. 1980: The relentless heat from the summer of 1980 continued. Record highs included: Wichita, KS: 110°, Oklahoma City, OK 108°, Columbia, MO: 108°, Topeka, KS: 107°, Dodge City, KS: 106°, Little Rock, AR: 105°, St. Louis, MO: 104° and Springfield, MO: 103°. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History) This was such an underrated summer, the hottest July/August couplet for us on record and the hottest and only August with a temperature above 80.0
  11. that JFK number is BS, it was definitely at or above 80.0 I don't subscribe to this antiquated idea that the new day begins at midnight/1 am.
  12. adjusting for calendar BS, JFK was definitely at or above 80.0
  13. ugh JFK should be given 80.0, it didn't go below 80.0 until after sunset, it was basically August by then, Don
  14. those were some extremes, from extremely cold and sometimes extremely snowy winters to the hottest stretch this area has ever seen in July 1977.
  15. July is basically over. To me, the month ended at sunset. I don't like midnight or 1 am date changes.
  16. I used to go to that area all the time, it's such a beautiful area (between Bayside and Great Neck). I wonder how Alley Pond Park is doing?
  17. I like day games on weekends, on the other hand I would ban night games on weekends lol Travel isn't a big deal these days when all of these teams travel via chartered jet.
