  1. What I don't like is that drying out seems to be getting pushed back. However, because of the SE Ridge, the rainfall has been underperforming for the coast and we are seeing more sun than was previously forecast. I would look for the ridge to get stronger when we enter summer and that would shift the rain even further to the west.
  2. I'm glad it's mostly sunny today and it should be tomorrow too and through Tuesday or Wednesday at least. Let's celebrate Memorial Day weekend right now lol
  3. The thing I am noticing with climate change is that the changes are extreme and not linear. Notice what's going on with California. They go from historically dry to historically wet and then back to historically dry again. I believe the true calling card for climate change is more extremes, not linear changes, so we will be extremely wet for awhile and then extremely dry and then back again, just like what California has been experiencing.
  4. Because it's much more than just a *warming world*
  5. and we would start to dry out too :-)
  6. People think a *warming world* will only make linear changes, but it's called climate change and not global warming for a good reason, many different things are going to happen. I am 100% sure we will shift to a predominantly westerly wind pattern with time and get our hot and dry summers back. These things go in cycles, even with climate change involved.
  7. LGA: 41 (1983)JFK: 43 (1983) wild how cold it was so late in the season in 1983 and everything flipped in June and we had a historically hot summer and even September, one of my all time favorites.
  8. If you were in better shape you would not mind the heat. Humidity I agree on.
  9. we need to suck water vapor out of the atmosphere
  10. well at least we hold it off Sunday-Wednesday Thats going to be my Memorial Day weekend lol
  11. sunny and cool for most of next week is going to be a fun experience.
  12. such a nice day, lots of kids playing outside.
  13. Seeing the sun out is so nice though.
  14. Sounds like what happened to me a few years ago at my other house. I don't like severe weather anymore either. I had to replace the roof and my balcony.
  15. it feels like they're a bit alarmist lol
  16. I guess that's moderate, but definitely a much better day than yesterday. Great t shirt weather.
  17. It didn't feel like it here, I felt a cool breeze with the sun out around 2:30 - 3 PM when I was outside.
  18. Nothing worse than rain and high humidity. The forecast busted here today it's been drier less humidity and mostly sunny FINALLY.
  19. So nice to have lower humidity today with mostly sunny skies here, I was outside for lunch and it felt absolutely wonderful.
  20. This sticky stuff is far worse. I could see a return to a drier pattern with sulfate particle release into the atmosphere-- that's what the climate models predict would happen anyway, cooler and drier. But cooler and drier doesn't mean it won't return to higher high temperatures in summer like we had in the 40s, 50s, 60s, and 90s.
  21. it doesn't look wasteful to me, it's being powered by the kinetic energy of humans moving.
  22. Well, that's good because I hate high humidity. Getting rid of this excessive rainfall and returning to a hot and dry normal summer pattern like we had in the 90s is perfect.
  23. Maybe we'll do what Dubai has done with installing air conditioning under their streets. https://luxurylaunches.com/travel/dubai-urban-highway.php Dubai is building a 58-mile-long air-conditioned highway for walking and cycling. The humungous structure will be powered by kinetic flooring that will harness energy from the footsteps of runners and walkers.
  24. I think it'll be mandatory to have various forms of cooling, I'm looking at 30-50 years in the future. If we do indeed have a Florida like climate at that point.
