Don are the blue and orange cold records from those 30 year periods? I can't fathom a warm record being 31 degrees between 1961-1990.
-
Ugh so we actually made it to freezing before midnight last night? That's annoying but at least we still tied the record (which is still a record.) Don what was the highest average Jan high (was it 50?) and what year did it happen in? Thanks!
-
With much lower humidity it would be a lot better Get rid of that pesky Gulf of Mexico
-
So 1 more than September 1983 had? That sounds like it was the hottest September on record on both avg temperature and number of 90 degree days!
-
the 1970s was definitely MUCH better
-
I think it's partly or mostly instinct. Think about where humanity evolved.
-
Thanks Don, it sounds amazing and yet it didn't make the 2 sigma mark! I see only two months from the 1880s did.
-
Wow right up there with March 2012! I didn't realize September 2015 was so warm! Did it have a lot of 90 degree days just like September 1983 did? How come September 1983 isn't on this list-- that was one amazing month for heat! Nice to see August 1980 on this list and two months from 2010! Those were some of my favorite summers! July 1999 was the hottest summer month we've ever had, closely followed by July 2010

Based on that map it would be 1" here and 2" near Fire Island That's very like December 1989 kind of snow.

Yes, but the standing water I'm talking about spraying are puddles left over from excess rainfall. The birds drink from my pond (which doesn't get sprayed.) The one with the massive wildfire? I guess there were two. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado_Fire#:~:text=The fire began at 10,in southern San Bernardino County. No it was this: The El Dorado Fire was a wildfire that burned 22,744 acres (9,204 ha; 35.538 sq mi) in the San Bernardino and Riverside Counties of California in September to November 2020. It was ignited on September 5 by a pyrotechnic device at a gender reveal party in El Dorado Ranch Park, and quickly spread to the San Gorgonio Wilderness Area of the San Bernardino National Forest. Burning over a 71-day period, the fire destroyed 20 structures and resulted in one firefighter fatality, for which the couple hosting the party were charged with involuntary manslaughter. Cause[edit] The fire began at 10:23 AM (PDT) on September 5, 2020,[1] when Refugio Manuel Jimenez Jr. and Angela Renee Jimenez set off a smoke bomb at a gender reveal photoshoot at the El Dorado Ranch Park near Yucaipa, in southern San Bernardino County. The detonation of the smoke bomb lit nearby dry grass on fire, which then began to spread rapidly.[2][3] According to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE), the Jimenezes attempted to extinguish the fire with bottled water,[1] then reported the fire to the authorities and cooperated with their investigation.[4] The cause of the fire inspired widespread mockery and condemnation, and was frequently compared to the 2017 Sawmill Fire, conceived by an exploding target at a gender reveal party in Arizona.[5][6][7][8] https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jul/21/couple-gender-reveal-party-wildfire-charged California couple whose gender-reveal party sparked a wildfire charged with 30 crimes This article is more than 1 year old The pyrotechnic device sparked the destructive El Dorado fire, which destroyed five homes and killed one firefighter Yes, but the standing water I'm talking about spraying are puddles left over from excess rainfall. The birds drink from my pond (which doesn't get sprayed.)

That's absolutely wild Don! And nothing between summer 1876 and winter 2007? Wow! I also noticed that summer 1876 was the only one in that list that happened in the summer-- what kind of a summer did we have that year-- did we set any 90+ or even 100+ degree records for that era?
-
That's really good, 120 minutes is about my limit for how long of a drive I want to take on a weekly basis.
-
There's literally just one way to get anywhere on the south shore from the city and the Van Wyck is packed even on less busy days. The only time the drive was a breeze was during the early part of the pandemic.
-
I do but the drive back and forth to Long Island is horrendous. I want a better location in NY where the drive is easier (doesn't take 3 hours). The most frustrating part is it takes just 2 hours to get to the city and another whole hour to get to western Long Island.
-
Oh I like it. and driving on Long Island is ----HORRENDOUS---- I might consider that as a second home too, as it's probably easier than going from the Poconos to Long Island
-
The only Asia song I know is the one that keeps playing over and over again in that Supernatural episode where they're stuck in a time loop and keep dying over and over again. Really good song!
-
Don can you confirm the high was 50 today? And the low will likely be either 33 or 34 and probably won't hit 32 until 2 am? Also which of our official spots still have their snowless streaks going? Just NYC and JFK? Thanks!
-
Now they're saying the high was 50 at NYC, so it's the 4th straight day to hit 50 and that closes out the month.

Some horrible person decided to take a pigeon and color it pink using a dye and the sickly bird was brought in to an animal rescue where it was nursed back to health. The bird couldn't fly and couldn't fend for itself and needed to be rescued. The theory is this dimwitted person did it for a "gender reveal" party. This reminds me of the dimwit who set off fireworks that started a massive wildfire for a gender reveal party in California a couple of years ago. All gender reveal parties should be BANNED. No one cares what your offspring is, keep it to yourself and stop damaging the environment with your egotistical need to brag about being a breeder.

Looks like the record for fewest 32 degree or lower mins for January will also fall. The split today was 49/34 and the temperature isn't projected to reach 32 until 2 AM tomorrow so it looks like 3 days of 32 or lower mins is going to be the new record, along with the warmest January on record. Projected avg mean is 43.5
-
Yes there was some light snow most of the day it looked really nice coming down.
-
Goldberg thinks chances of measurable are 20-30% and said that the timeframe for snow is from 3 AM to 5 AM with the snow fighting dry air but still says a quarter inch is possible.
-
93-94 and 95-96 really made up for it
-
Aside from the temperatures warming, the new normal is a couple of seasons of good snowfall intermixed with several seasons of really bad snowfall, with perhaps one or two "normal seasons" tossed in. This season isn't the new normal, it's an extreme, but it's an extreme worse than any other extreme has been. Last season is probably closer to what the new normal will look like. LOL ABC just came out with a "study" that climate change could enhance the chances of a fungi pandemic that will mutate humanity. haha

I dont think there any even if we went back to the 70s and 80s with those older records.
