Knowing our local climate helps in knowing it could hit 90 even on the south shore before the sea breeze comes in. The sea breeze usually comes in after 1 PM and we usually rise quicker than the city does before that happens.

wow you must have some great sensors! I was glad we hit 90 right before the sea breeze hit too. Not all parts of the south shore are the same

They struggled with Nassau County too it hit 90 here even on the south shore

where was that Don?

You guys get all the fun

Thanks thats right when I hit 90!

Yup although I saw some PWS indicating it hit 90 as far south as Valley Stream around 1 before the sea breeze came in. As usual the western part of the south shore gets it later lol. Weird thing is how did Shirley way out in Suffolk County hit 90, aren't they right on the water? Never got anywhere close to 90 today-- what made it surge north earlier today?

This is called high IQ pitching, the flame throwers will get injured and Cortes will just keep on pitching. The human arm was not designed to throw 95+ mph consistently for more than an inning or two.

we pay for lower temps with much higher humidity. I'd much rather have dry heat

do you have the map for 1 PM and 1:30 PM

that is warm and humid Those places in the 80s were actually more humid than the places in the 90s

Wow I wonder if we may see some global records with these extreme worldwide temperatures. I remember reading that April was the hottest on record in southern Asia. Do you have any global high heat record notifications, Don? Any that are 125 or higher?

wait, I'm confused, are the numbers on the left the forecast highs and the numbers on the right the actual highs? I didn't see what the actual highs today at the airports and the park were.

Yeah this humidity really sucks. Knew we were in trouble when we were fogged in this morning lol

Turned my a/c on at 4 PM finally

so back then with the widespread westerly flow, is that what's known as a "Sonoran Heat Release"-- I noticed that's when we get our hottest weather, like what happened in July 2010 and July 2011.

tainted by high mins, I only measure heat by high temps and number of 90 degree days. it's why you don't see any global heat records coming out of tropical rain forests lol

Yeah but this isn't the "strong" kind of heat that lasts all day. Back in 2010 and 2002 and 1996, the heat was so strong that it would make it all the way to the coast and stay there all day. This time around it made it to the coast for like 30 min (when I hit 90) and then retreated. That's basically what I was asking you, why is it that in some years you get that kind of heat and then you have other times when the heat just touches the coast and then it retreats....is it down to the position of the high?

ah you missed the big heat in 2010 and 2011. Was up in the low 100s then all the way out to Suffolk County. We were over 100 three days out of four in July 2010 around July 4th weekend and then in late July in 2011 we did it two more times and peaked at 104.

damn you missed the heat party. Were you keeping track of your car thermometer.....when did the big drop in temp occur? Were you south of Sunrise Hwy when it happened?

Whats the reason for the sea breeze? What was different about May 1996 (and April 2002)-- is it just down to the position of the high or is it something else? I hit 90 so I'm not complaining, but the heat in those years was much stronger.

Find a way to use up the energy from the sea breeze with wind turbines so we never have to get a sea breeze ever again! It hit 90 here at 1:15 but the sea breeze ruined the heat party 5 min after that.

What time did you get to LB JM?

It hit 90 here at 1:15 the temps didn't start dropping until after 1:20. I hate the sea breeze but a positive of wind energy is if we can harness its power we can use up that energy before it makes here correct? So if we divert the wind away from the coast with wind turbines we can stop the sea breeze from ruining our heat party?

sucks, we went from 90 to 84 in 1 hour and then down to 78 an hour after that. First object of climate modification should be to harness the sea breeze-- so that we can have wind energy AND we can keep it from ruining our heat party!
