but we don't know how reliable those thermometers are or if they meet NWS criteria, it's like reading snowfall reports from a PNS. Plus for the heat to actually be historic it should cover more of the area like it did in 2010 and 2011.
-
it's not just a local thing, and NYC makes the list too. I'm not convinced this is just about the sea breeze either, as our heat was much more prolonged in the 1940s and 1950s. CC has blunted extreme summer heat in our area, lowering the number of extreme heat waves (7+ days in a row over 90).
-
we're just going for the 3 local airports plus the park to define historic
-
MTP has a New England climate Chris. I'd argue for our 3 airports plus Central Park being enough.
-
But if the heat is really extreme, it will hit 100+ by 12 noon like it did in 2010 and 2011. The sea breeze will come in after JFK etc have already hit 100+ I notice that JFK temps rise quickly in the morning on these kinds of days and the sea breeze only comes in after it's already over 100.
-
July 2010 is far preferable to any of this
-
It looks like more over the top heat, if the heat ridge was strong enough it would have kept the sea breeze away
-
Try Fahrenheit 451 too lol
-
no thank you, 100+ with 45 dewpoints is far better and far cleaner air.
-
you should want a strong westerly flow, it means lower dew points and lower humidity
-
He's definitely not smart enough to figure that out (talking about the *omega man*), plus he's a sour grapes 5 poster ..... *people who live in glass houses*....

to be honest humans change everything if you want to widen the scope, so do other animals plants and even microbes if it weren't for blue green algae (not algae lol) our atmosphere wouldn't be the way it is and we would not exist.
-
and yet our last real extreme records were from 2011, so I'm not sure how much this translates to the surface.
-
That was one of our last historic heatwaves because the entire region got above 100
-
got anything for 2010 or 1993 or 1991 Tony?
-
as long as it hits 100+ for at least one day, it can snow on Thursday for all I care.
-
Does KPHL has some sort of issue like KNYC does?
-
those colors are still awful though
-
101+ needed for that at NYC and JFK.
-
July 2010 too.
-
much better than foggy and not being able to see outside
-
*usual warm spots* doesn't cut it Chris, if the entire region doesn't hit 100+ it's not historic
-
even during Sandy? wow
-
Forget EWR, they are always hot, it needs to get to JFK with temperatures of 100 or hotter.
-
Yes and it really does not happen in June and even moreso after so much rain. But add this caveat, we rarely ever see our highest temperatures in June, this will probably be an appetizer for heat even more extreme in July.
