1953 and 1955 are absolutely wild because they each had two such periods. Don the second period in 1953 could be extended into early September when it peaked at 102.....

Don, do 1966 and 2010 meet the criteria at JFK? Do any of those other years? I know JFK had 3 days out of 4 in 2010 at 100 or above and in 1966 they had three straight days of 100+?

which one would stand out if 100 was the criteria, 1993? oh nevermind I thought one of the criteria was three straight days above that number if going by average high it's definitely 1966. you could argue that 2010 would also meet the criteria since 99.5 rounds up to 100

1977 and 1993 really stand out in this list

why did they pick such a weird number-- 97? 100 should be the number.

This sounds so easy to do that it makes me think there's a reason they don't do it. Maybe they're counting on the canopy to hide the equipment from vandals. I don't know why they don't surround it with a barbed wire electrified fence.

Was that the winter where JFK got two 6 inch events within 10 days of each other? and NYC's largest event was 4 inches lol

Perhaps that equipment should be moved downtown. Park temperatures are not what New York City residents typically experience.

On June 26, 1952 as I showed previously, JFK reached 99 on a SSW wind and when the wind switched to WSW it was at 99 for two more hours. It's possible 100 was reached in between hours on that day there but not recorded. I think it shows that JFK can reach 100 there in June even on an onshore wind in June.

you probably get a lot more snow than NYC too lol

it should be okay for 1 day, this is a fairly short heatwave. Con Ed really sucks though so you never know.

not *very bad* but a time to celebrate a once a decade occurrence! you should be a fan of weather extremes!

around the same time it hit 90 here and then the temperature dropped 4 degrees at 3 when the sea breeze came in

it was 90 here at 2:30 pm and then the sea breeze came in here around 3 pm and knocked temperatures down 4 degrees. the temperature spike occurs right before the sea breeze comes in sounds a lot like the heaviest snow / largest snowflakes occurring right before the changeover hits.

wait you have JFK listed twice Tony, actually three times but only with two different temperatures lol

90 here at 2:30 perhaps JFK gets it in between hours

it hit 90 here at 2:30 nice offshore breeze

we just hit 90 here at 2:30 pm

We just hit 90 here at 2:30 pm

should be one for Nassau County too

and it's hard to believe it did not hit 100 at JFK in between hours on this date, when it was 99 on a SSW wind and then the wind switched to WSW and it was 99 for two more hours.....

Did you see what I posted about June 26, 1952? Sorry to say this about models, but they aren't very smart Look at this from a climate history perspective. June 26, 1952 at JFK -- 99 degrees on a SSW wind at 13 mph!! https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/ny/new-york-city/KJFK/date/1952-6-26 12:00 PM 94 °F 75 °F 54 % SW 18 mph 0 mph 29.78 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 1:00 PM 95 °F 74 °F 50 % SW 17 mph 0 mph 29.76 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 2:00 PM 98 °F 73 °F 44 % SW 15 mph 0 mph 29.75 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 3:00 PM 99 °F 72 °F 42 % SSW 13 mph 0 mph 29.75 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 4:00 PM 92 °F 73 °F 54 % SSW 13 mph 0 mph 29.75 in 0.0 in Fair 5:00 PM 99 °F 68 °F 36 % WSW 20 mph 0 mph 29.73 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 6:00 PM 99 °F 69 °F 38 % WSW 15 mph 0 mph 29.73 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy 7:00 PM 94 °F 74 °F 52 % SW 12 mph 0 mph 29.74 in 0.0 in Partly Cloudy

on a side note, I can't believe it didn't hit 100 at JFK on this date when it was 99 on a SSW wind and then the wind switched to WSW and it was 99 for two more hours one would think that JFK hit 100 in between hours.....
