it really sucks for allergies, if you have a chemical that would block pollination of whatever crap is causing these allergies I'd be happy to spray it.

LGA and JFK's last really hot summer on this scale was also 2010. I consider that the peak of what's possible here in terms of summer heat. EWR is a furnace, it doesn't even belong in the same climate zone with the rest of us.

the one bad thing about the wind is it makes the seasonal allergies much worse got anything that blocks pollination? we dont need any more of whatever is causing these allergies.

No, it's becoming much more common in Brooklyn. The good thing about brownstone solar is that you can supply your own power and sell the rest to others.

There is a way to do it though. Each state is like its own country. If you could give each state the ability to do it themselves it could work.

Looks like the peak for us is 11 pm to 2 am based on this table We're UT-4 (because of DST).

sounds like our healthcare issues with PBMs being the middlemen that are responsible for the increased costs.

wait, we were close to having a vaccine for aids? when was this project shut down?

May 2020 34 degrees and snow on May 9th in NYC and June 2023 with a low in the 40s on June 4th are two more examples of it. The climate is of course warming but there is not this steep climb that is being talked about. NYC's longest heatwave was in 1953, its most number of 95 degree days was in 1955, its longest streak of 95+ days was in 1944, its most number of 99+ days was in 1949.

Yes true, whenever I talk to people visiting from these countries they are absolutely amazed by the size of the portions we eat.

I'm hoping its effects will be blunted. Just remember it won't be a repeat of June 2023.

Thanks, I hope we get there one day with better food and a healthier society. People talk about the high healthcare costs here -- some of it is greed and some of it is because of what we eat.

unlike June 2023

How much light does it block though? We can still see the stars through haze and smoke as long as it's not completely obnoxious like what we had in June 2023.

Geomag storm level 4 viewable down to the Carolinas and Alabama

Tony, so last year NYC did not have a foliage problem.... both NYC and LGA had the same number (21) of 90+ days?

I want to see JFK beat NYC

Food in France and Italy is much better but that's a different story, they don't use the crap artificial ingredients we use and are also healthier overall.

and let's not dismiss the corruption of the aptly named *Con* Edison, these companies need to be closely regulated and monitored and prosecuted as soon as they go off the rails, as that company has done throughout its sordid history.

it's also cloudy now

You're completely dismissing the inherent corruption and greed of these corporations that need to be directly regulated and overseen by the state. we need state ownership of power companies pure and simple. *Con* Edison and the failed Lilco have shown that these companies can't be trusted.

In the record books there are several examples of record hot streaks that haven't been matched since, I just listed the two most glaring examples. 1955 had the most 95+ days. 1949 had 5 days of 99 degrees or higher. 1948 had three days of 100 degrees or higher even at JFK. There is something unique about this period that hasn't been matched since. 2010 was absolutely amazing and set the JFK records for several categories but didn't have a super heatwave like that. It looks like 2002 was the last time we had one of those.

Walt, this is going to be a level 4 Geomagnetic storm, I read that aurorae viewing is possible down to the Carolinas and Alabama. Even if you can't see them you can still capture them with your camera.

Con Edison with a heavy emphasis on the *Con* part, this is a corrupt company and have been prosecuted as such.

I can't imagine getting that kind of heat, not even now, 42 years later, when our climate is warmer. Maybe September 2010 was the closest we've come to a repeat, although even that fell short of what happened in September 1983.
