Amazing how short the growing season was in 1976 (although we did go from 25 on 4/12 to a 90+ true heatwave a week later lol.
-
Wow I think one of those was also accompanied by NYC's earliest 6" snowfall?
-
Thanks, Don. So it's really early October for our area....NYC on the last day of September 110 years ago also has to be the monthly low record.
-
Chris, do you have a list for the earliest 30s for the NYC airports and the park itself? Going back to the 70s and overall site records? I'm thinking it was back in 1976 and in late September?
-
Might be the first frost out your way.
-
There never really is a last 70, it can happen at any time of the year.
-
had heavy rain for a short time just now
-
a couple more days in the 70s next week before that happens though!
-
That wasn't just some prior record in 1944. 1944 had a much celebrated 11 year pattern summer that was the hottest summer on record back then and far ahead of its time.
-
I turned the a/c on at 4 pm and turned it off after midnight. I have a 75-55 comfortable range. If it's higher than 75 I turn on the a/c. If it's lower than 55 I turn on the heat.
-
If this follows the typical pattern of the last few years, we'll get some early season cold shots followed by a big thaw in the middle, followed by more cold and chances for snow towards the end of winter.
-
Yeah I turned my heat off Thursday night, it felt awesome.
-
Tony, can you include ABE, MPO, Scranton (I don't remember the three letter code for them.) and FRG? Thanks!
-
Interesting that outside of 2003, all of those are from around 50 years ago or more. Surprised that 1976 isn't on this list.
-
Also reminds me of the Feb 26 2010 storm (if you want to talk about winter.)
-
Not seeing sun isn't a good thing though, SAD hitting early this fall.
-
Do these work on a PC or do you need to have a phone to be able to use them?
-
That dark red thunderstorm that hit here from about 4 PM to 5 PM was a sight to behold. We usually get something like that when a storm is about to leave the area so it was fun to see (as long as you know it's the storm's last hurrah lol.) Also the limited sunlight we had earlier in the day made me think we might create enough instability to get these in the late afternoon.
-
Rare to see 5" amounts at both my houses lol. Reminds me of the Jan 2016 super snowstorm where I got over 30 inches of snow at both. It's actually closer to 6" at both places now with the heavy downpours I got at both places.
-
We actually had some of heaviest rains after this map was issued. Long duration strong thunderstorms after 4 PM with some very heavy downpours. The sky has finally cleared and I can see the moon shining over my garden-- the day will be glorious and temps in the mid 70s for the next two days!
-
Do you think that the LR weather modeling will be able to add this new layer of complexity programmed into it so that we can improve these forecasts, Chris?
-
This is why ENSO centric forecasts are going to have major issues (they've had issues for a few years now.)
-
It's as good as gone and it'll be gone for a nice long time. By the way, look towards the south, I can see large gaps in the clouds already with blue patches of sky visible in that direction.
-
I once saw a rainbow in a clear sky. There were weird circumstances surrounding it. It was an unusually warm mid February day in 2018 (in the 70s) and it was a reverse rainbow fragment and it was directly overhead early in the afternoon with not a cloud in the sky. Later drove from the Poconos to NY and on the way I saw a forest fire near I-80 in NW NJ. I wonder if the weird reverse rainbow fragment had something to do with that?
-
But Ian turned into Noreaster is exactly the type of storm you'd expect to get in October, so I would say it was more than just luck.
