  1. What I like about our area is that it usually corresponds well to the astronomical seasons-- last snow is usually around 3/20, summer weather usually kicks in around 6/20, fall around 9/20 and first snows around 12/20. Screw "met seasons" astronomical is where it's at
  2. ah that explains why they're in the 50s. The ironic thing is that which keeps the coast the warmest also makes the SST stay cool (upwelling.)
  3. the size of 350 giraffes? couldn't they come up with a better comparison? Because I totally can't picture what 350 giraffes end to end look like lol
  4. why are the SST so cold this year--- cold spring?
  5. Is this an extension of the climate warming the most the further north you are that started with the Arctic warming? If so doesn't that mean the warming begins from the "top" down"-- that is the most extreme warmth will be the further north you go-- I believe this was well predicted by the climate models.
  6. wow you must've been away from the sea breeze today
  7. Didn't we have a very dry May? Humidity was in the single digits for awhile.
  8. In Islip? It was cooler today here but more humid Cant use the word "cool" to describe this though lol I turned my A/C on earlier because it was more uncomfortable than yesterday was.
  9. 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.
  10. 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
  11. They struggled with Nassau County too it hit 90 here even on the south shore
  12. You guys get all the fun
  13. Thanks thats right when I hit 90!
  14. 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?
  15. 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.
  16. we pay for lower temps with much higher humidity. I'd much rather have dry heat
  17. do you have the map for 1 PM and 1:30 PM
  18. that is warm and humid Those places in the 80s were actually more humid than the places in the 90s
  19. 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?
  20. 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.
  21. Yeah this humidity really sucks. Knew we were in trouble when we were fogged in this morning lol
  22. Turned my a/c on at 4 PM finally
  23. 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.
  24. 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
