sort of like arctic air masses that take long trajectories before they get here

and LOL at politicians being better "thinkers" than scientists, these "planners" of yours wouldn't know science if it smacked them in the face, all they know is how to bend over to take bribes from the fossil fuel cartels. Your take is way out of date, most people know much better by now than to fall for these dark money pandering politicians that spread the kind of propaganda you wasted your time typing out. and yes the generation which actually matters does want these changes, it's only you archaic boomers holding on to the past who dont.

thank goodness we've banned dangerous fracking in NY and NJ and eastern PA after a year long scientific study and we've also banned new pipelines, looks like the unintelligent conservative cult out west is digging their own graves

this piece of crap you just wrote is as much propaganda as much as anything the Nazis ever did, fortunately people who know better will correct you on all these fake points

at this point the economy needs to be destroyed when things are destroyed they can be built from the ground up all new cars must be electric and that will be the case in a few years people dont want to work in the dirty fossil fuel cartels anymore, its less than a 20% job desirability rate- green energy pays far higher and is the highest growing job sector. Not only that the fossil fuel cartels said that the pandemic destroyed them and they reached peak oil in 2019 and see only declines from here on.....see the pandemic does good things, nature corrects human stupidity. and lol at high paying fossil fuel jobs, fossil fuel companies are laying off workers left and right they ditch their workers and pay their execs...where did you find this fantasy of that dirty cartel treating its workers well? they are ditching them because they see the writing on the wall, their best days are behind them and the workers are the first to get cut you want to talk about impacting the poor- dirty fossil fuels kill more poor people than anything else does and shorten longevity more than anything else end fossil subsidies forever

isnt that right at the water? so that would be like JFK hitting 100?

whats keeping it away?

Seattle dewpoint will be near 70 tomorrow.

what was that date we reached 104 in 2011?

exactly my point. I wonder if all that arctic hot air that has been talked about for years is actually causing northern regions to be hotter than we are.

back to back all time records? thats a first!

1993 one of my favorite summers on that list that had the hottest week of weather I've ever experienced.

wow 1966 reached 100 early and often.....what an amazing summer that was.

that was an unexpected 90 for the park, I guess things are starting to dry out there?

what does it look like the entire week after the 4th, I have that week off

I knew 1980 would be at the top for this, the combo of July and August that year was unmatched nationwide.

this stretch in 1993 was the hottest 10 days of heat in my memory, it's when I broke down and finally put in the a/c 10...102...7/7-7/16 1993

wow what a list! Do you have one for JFK too? It's amazing we had more 95 days in 2010 than NYC did!

Besides EWR we haven't set any all time heat records in our area. We're due.

One could argue that westerly flow causes our biggest heat outbreaks and that the onshore flow happens because there are weaknesses in the ridge. I've seen when the high is really strong it overcomes sea breezes which is when we get our best heat. Do you actually rank 2020 higher than 2010 though? 2010 was basically our 1995-96 of summers for the most heat across the entire region (we are after all a coastal region) and was also the hottest summer on record by summer average. I'm not sure how representative LGA is of our area because of its cramped congested location, I'd rather use an average of all the airports. And if you judge summers by peak heat, I dont see any 102-103 temps like we had in 2010 and 2011, which is a true indication of how dominant a ridge is. 2010 is like MJ and 2020 is like Lebron. Sure Lebron had a longer career but at his best MJ was a better player. I actually think EWR is more representative of our area than LGA, because the years in the EWR list are more of what I remember as being extremely hot. All the summers prior in the EWR list are what I would call extremely hot.

JFK was fairly close to LGA in 95 degree days (10) in 2010 and 100 degree days (3).

Thats amazing because I look back at last summer as fairly bland. We didn't have a real historic stretch of heat like the 3 days out of 4 over 100 in July 2010. I also remember using the a/c far more in 2010. Do you think we'll get enough climate warming to eventually overcome southerly flow and hit 100 consistently across the area regardless of wind direction?

Yes I shudder to think what a 112 in Seattle would be like.....117 in NYC?

I still find it amazing that LGA was hotter last summer than in 2010 even though they had nearly twice as many 90 degree highs in 2010. I wonder when we'll have 50-60 90 degree days. I think you and Don said that within 30 years the excessive heat will overcome the southerly flow and we'll all be hitting 100 multiple times even with a southerly wind?

Yes and it hit 100 at JFK in 2013 too so it was actually 4 straight years
