Paradoxically, warmer oceans may mean bigger snowstorms in the winter, at least in the short term.
-
wow two all time awful winters in that list 1931-32 and 2001-02
-
Rain just got into most of the city and Westchester, but it looks like they will get under a quarter of an inch there. Hey Don I was looking at the position of the low and it's a coastal hugger so very close to the coast. Why is it that rain didn't make it further inland....a low that passes just under western long island, you'd expect a larger rainshield extending at least 100 miles to the west and northwest of the low?
-
Rain has made it into most of the city now as well as Westchester, temps in the 60s now in the city.
-
someone sent me a link to wunderground wundermap and I clicked on precip and it showed that about 1.5-1.8 inches fell across the western and central parts of Suffolk County. Less to the west and the east.
-
wow for a second I thought that was in Virginia! with this recent report about the changing ocean currents, how will this impact SST up our way, Chris?
-
it messed this up last time too, which was earlier in the season when the waters were much cooler
-
Yes, I've noticed this often. JFK actually has higher temps than the other airports even Newark for the first half of the day and only levels off or slowly falls after about 1 PM. Imagine if it was a westerly or even northwesterly flow all day, JFK would always have the highest temps in the region.

Hey I have two gardens to take care of lol, so both need to get some love. I'm going to be there for the Perseids meteor shower peak though, I had an amazing experience seeing them last year from there, first time I've ever seen shooting stars change colors as they fell- I think being away from lights made the experience much better. Some even looked like they came really close to hitting the ground- must've been an optical illusion but it was still a lot of fun.
-
So JFK and surrounding area could hit 90 each of those 3 days, Chris?
-
Thank goodness, so this is another case of the models thinking that the southern part of Long Island is in the ocean (probably wont happen for another 50 years or so lol.) We also see this in snowfall prediction algorithms. SW winds usually get us to 90 before the sea breeze kicks in from July to September.

Must be a Suffolk County thing, Nassau County has had plenty of rain, my pond has been overflowing and my mold allergies have been awful. I don't follow Suffolk County weather because I haven't been out there since 2019 and no media reports on Suffolk County rainfall totals. I just get the stuff for NYC and the surrounding airports. We've had rain here on 5 weekends (at least one day of the weekend at any rate) since the beginning of July. Dry went away here when June ended.
-
The rain was light and showery here and it was interspersed with partial sunshine. Back to overcast so more rain may be coming.
-
I thought that was too rainy for you. I like dry and hot low humidity and blue skies.
-
it's always the weekend though lol But hadn't we already had a very rainy July? why is the rain so needed now after nearly a foot of rain fell in July?
-
thats weird my house in the poconos at 2000 ft will be hotter than my house on long island. Isn't the water supposed to hot enough by now that the wind direction doesn't have a significant impact on hot temps? This looks much more like a late spring pattern.
-
Walt, do you have a rainfall map for Long Island? It's actually raining here again and windy. -
Looks like peak 90 degree heat will be Wednesday through Friday with some cooling in time for next weekend.

That sensor went bad for 2010 lol. I know JFK had 10 95 degree days in 2010. Do you have the JFK list too? -
Didn't we have another one which had 2 big storms, one in early January and one in March? It was a couple of years ago. The one in early January was a verified blizzard, a mini version of the Jan 2016 blizzard (about half as long with half the snowfall amounts of that.) We had wall to wall white out conditions all day.
-
Well Don it's raining here again, looks like that forecast of all day and all night rain may come true. Quite windy too.
-
What was it that kept the storm from coming north? There hasn't been much blocking around here.
-
Funny thing is normal snowfall has been rare and it's either been one extreme or the other. With the types of snow events we get too.
-
and isn't this winter going to be a neutral after la nina?
-
Don how much rain fell? I saw a weird forecast of rain showers all day, heavy at times, up to half an inch and rain right into tomorrow morning? That can't be right- the sun already came out here.
