Today was perfect, nice land breeze, low humidity, warm.... the only thing that interrupted the party was those clouds that unexpectedly moved in. We need a nice high to keep that stuff suppressed to the south where it belongs.
-
I wouldn't go by LGA temps either, they are usually lower than JFK on a land breeze.
-
not if it's raining =\ my main beef with maps like this is they don't show sky conditions and that's what really defines how good a day is.
-
what does it mean no intra hour highs registered, Tony?
-
I was a little surprised to see those clouds, is that storm ahead of schedule? Forecasts didn't have any clouds coming in here before tomorrow afternoon!
-
Today is the absolute perfect day, could not have scripted it any better for Mother's Day.
-
Big difference between LGA (30) and EWR (49) too. Was this similar to 2005, Tony?
-
Records: Highs: EWR: 93 (1993) NYC: 92 (1993) LGA: 96 (1953) JFK: 85 (1993) Lows: EWR: 36 (1966) NYC: 36 (1966) LGA: 42 (1945) JFK: 40 (1966) Tony, this must have been the day the historic summers of 1953 and 1993 got started! On the flip side it's funny to see such cold this late in 1966 when that became our hottest summer on record until 1993 and 2010 came along!
-
You're forgetting JFK too. The increase is really for inland areas.
-
all stadiums should have removable domes at this point, with all the money the Yankees have I can't imagine why they'd skimp on a 150 million dollar add-on.
-
The same was the case in August 2011 too. It really was July when the heat peaked and did so in a historic way (In July 2011 especially.)
-
ah they are worried about people stealing the instruments (hence the fences.)
-
But the instruments belong to the NWS no? They should be able to move them to wherever they want them to be?
-
Why don't they just move the equipment to where it was in 1993 and prior? I would put it right in the middle of the Sheeps Meadow.
-
add JFK and it's even more apparent.
-
Chris if we just go decade by decade, and compare NYC, JFK, LGA AND EWR, how do they all compare for the following 10 year periods with average number of 90 degree days: 1980-1989 1990-1999 2000-2009 2010-2019
-
the moon was gorgeous last night too!!
-
1999 and 2002 still had no problems getting extended heatwaves though. 2010 should have the record for most 90 degree days though, it was our hottest summer by a mile.
-
Yes, those were the last ones with extended heatwaves. That NWS longest heatwaves page is a great guide to how our summers used to be. We didn't see extended heatwaves like that even in 2010 although it had the most 90 and 100 degree days I've seen.
-
They don't have the money to cut it huh? I still don't see that heatwave from 1953 or 1993 ever being equaled. 102 in September is absolutely unreal lol.
-
Isn't this the same pattern we had in the winter?
-
Yes, it was in the 90s even inside my house. I remember that day it hit 102 in the city and 101 at JFK, it was the third straight for the city and second straight for JFK, on a Saturday, and the sun looked orange. My dad was gardening outside and when I went out there with him, I asked him how he could garden with no breeze and an orange sun beating down lol. I woke up at 9 am it was already 92 degrees at 9 am at JFK, that's how I knew we were in for a historic day.

This 11 day streak does not even include the back to back days of 101 after July 4th !! And the other one is in 2002 when we had an 8 day hot streak followed by a 9 day hot streak 6 days later !! 1977 I remember because of the big blackout, 9 days 90+ and 3 days 100+ including a 104 !! I really wish I was around in 1953 to see two monumental heatwaves, a 7 day and a historic 12 day heatwave with a total of 4 days of 100+ including a 102 in September the all time record !!

Look at this, I'm privileged enough to remember these summers. 1993 had the hottest period of my life time. It was the first summer I started using air conditioning here. Look at this absolutely amazing streak of 10 days of 90+ and 3 days of 100+ something I am reasonably confident we'll never see again in our lifetime. The amazing thing about the last two days of the 1993 streak is they happened AFTER a cold front had passed through. 90 and dry actually felt COLD https://www.weather.gov/okx/heatwaves Longest Heat Waves - 90 degrees + in a row (through March 10) Days Dates Temperatures 91,91,91,94,98,99,98,100,97,102,94,90 92,97,97,93,96,97,93,92,90,98,90 98,100,101,102,97,94,94,91,90,90 90,94,92,97,95,98,94,96,93,90 92,96,98,95,92,93,94,94,94 93,92,96,98,97,100, 102,92,104 91,93,91,91,91,94,99,101,95 93,94,91,94,92,91,93,93,91 96, 95, 95, 96, 97, 90, 92, 91 91, 92, 91, 94, 93, 94, 96, 95 98, 95, 98, 94, 95, 94, 96, 93 97, 102, 97, 96, 95, 95, 96, 95 91,91,93,95,95,100,100,94 93, 93, 91, 94, 96, 90,96 93, 93, 95, 94, 96, 99, 97 90, 93, 96, 99, 96, 100, 102 94, 93, 94, 98, 96, 93, 97 94, 95, 96, 93, 94, 94, 93 98, 100, 90, 95, 100, 97, 93 92, 97, 100, 101, 91, 90, 90
