  1. I got my digital one set up just in time for October 2005.....unfortunately they are hard to maintain and always seem to break down on me I should go back to the old fashioned glass cylinder one I used to have. That one was either stolen or accidentally dumped into the trash lol.
  2. Yeah thats why I find NYC rainfall records suspect, there are probably singular locations like yours that have seen a lot more.
  3. Yeah I guess that's why as soon as I leave my bedroom I have huge sneezing bouts lol. I have window AC not Central AC and only the bedrooms have it installed.
  4. 1983 is always going to be special to me because of how amazingly hot it was wall to wall, and even at JFK. The funny thing about it being the rainiest year on record is it didn't rain all that much during the summer, which was perfectly timed and enabled it to be super hot.
  5. Interesting report on Eyewitness News about asthma and pollution rates and lack of tree canopy in minority communities in the city. Minority communities only have an average of 17% tree canopy vs other communities that have 23% tree canopy. This also leads to higher rates of heat deaths in these communities. The goal is to achieve 30% tree canopy over the entire city by 2035.
  6. Chris is there any way to avoid this? I have really bad mold allergies and that year they were year round. Can some preventative treatment be applied to prevent mold from growing? I use bleach but that has its own pungent odor
  7. Is this for JFK...1983 will always stand out for me, for having extreme heat and humidity combined. Why was it so bad in 2018 though, it wasn't even that hot. And 2014 didn't have any?
  8. radar is lying out this way......shows green and yellow echoes and not a single drop has fallen here. The sky isn't even that dark, seeing filtered sunshine
  9. I think elevation matters more than latitude. Near Lake Harmony we average 70 inches of snow and the latitude is the same as The Bronx. The further north you go the closer you get to redneck territory anyway.
  10. Cities best prepared for climate change: https://twitter.com/i/events/1430983286709538822 1. Wellington, NZ (no wonder so many rich people are moving to NZ.) 2. Toronto, CA 3. Washington, DC 4. Bogota, CO 5. Copenhagen, DE Also talks about the importance of taking excess CO2 out of the atmosphere.
  11. No time for 20 years dude, we should've started back in the 80s when I and many others already knew what was going on but thanks to coverups by large corporations who deserve to lose ALL their money regular people had no clue. But we need to deal with them with a vengeance and make the French Revolution look like a picnic.
  12. Yeah but this doesn't mean we shouldn't get off of fossil fuels. There are MANY reasons to get off of them (especially for health and pollution reasons) and I would go further and hold the people in charge of these companies in a Nuremberg style International Court for crimes against humanity for what they've been doing for decades. An example must be made out of them to make sure no one ever tries this ever again. Make them suffer.
  13. This couldn't wait until nightfall? Messed up my hottest day of the year dammit
  14. I think these storms just randomly formed, too quickly to warn anyone.
  15. Looks like a storm randomly formed near JFK and that's where all this rumbling is coming from? Getting clouds blowing off from it over here.
  16. Yeah but I haven't used Nextdoor (yet), I look at stations on wunderground for weather info. I have wifi out there and there's about three or four other local users whose wifi names pop up when I'm logging in.
  17. if Central Florida had big snowy noreasters in the winter lol They still jackpot in those storms
  18. Same here...... 90, 91, 92, and today was the topper at 96!
  19. wow I just heard loud rumbling thunder even though it's completely sunny here, not a cloud in the sky
  20. They always happen there, whats the reason for it? They also have the most extreme temps lol. East facing shorelines always have the most extreme and fun weather lol
  21. Just dont want to see a microburst, one of those damaged my roof and balcony there by dropping a bunch of trees on it. The media is ridiculously bad out there, no one even reported it, I had to find out through the power company what happened.
  22. I conquer sneaky heat today, topped out at 96.
