    Don, I see you mentioned the second half of July and into August, do you think our late June temperatures will be exceeded at some point this summer, at least at NYC and JFK?
  2. LibertyBell
    wow I suspect Scandanavia has never hit 100?

    Thanks, Uncle, are 1953 and 1966 the only two years to have 100+ temps in multiple months? 1953 had it in 3, wow.

    When was the last time we had our hottest weather in June? 1994? I know in 1996 it was in May and in 1976 it was in April lol. Weird the disparity in 1994 between NYC and PHL, in PHL the heat continued for the entire summer, but it didn't in NYC? In PHL 1994 was basically a repeat of 1993 wasn't it? Amazing combo of summers- 1991, 1993, 1994, and 1995, with 1992 the glaring exception rainy and cold summer! Not even cool, actually COLD! By the way on this date in July 1999 we began our two day streak of 101 degrees, I loved that month, ended up with 20 90 degree days and our hottest month on record (beating July 1955) until July 2010 knocked it off. I love those 11 year summers!

    I wonder how much that big derecho took down? I heard damage was in the billions. Also, I read that many farmers are going out of business because of more frequent flooding and 3"+ rainfall events, so the corn business out there may be on the clock..... I dont think thats sustainable farming anyway, monocultural farming is bad for the soil.

    So 2060 is D Day for the planet to free itself from the plague virus that is humanity eh? Question....so it turns out that curbing emissions wont stop this existential threat from becoming reality by the time we reach the +2 C tipping point?

    He had one for every game the Mets will win this year lol

    havent had that processed crap in years and never will again. I think the AHA and ACS warns us to limit it to less than 10% of total consumption, Joey must be eating it at about 110% lol

    Thats what I wanted to ask you Chris, do you think the 102-103 there Jun 29-30 was the peak hit of the summer? Since it happened at the tail end of June, it was basically July weather starting a day or two early. Or do you think we have prospects of beating that kind of heat later in the month (say around July 20th or later?) Speaking specifically for JFK and coastal areas.

    that 595 DM pattern equates to what kind of temps along the coast Tony.....mid 90s?
  11. LibertyBell
    I heard JFK set a new record low this morning (I mean yesterday morning now lol) at 59! Is a low of 59 or lower rare there in July too?

    1933 was when the 11 year cycle began

    Wouldn't it be funny if LGA hit or got close to 100 on Tuesday? You could have two extreme swings a few days apart at the same location!
  14. LibertyBell
    Looks like the above was the greatest variation from one day to the next? Do we have something similar going in the opposite direction (from a cool day to a 100 degree high)?
  15. LibertyBell
    7-21-19…..100 7-32-19…..77 Chris, I assume the second date should be 7-22?
  16. LibertyBell
    Chris can you dig up June-July 1993? If you could please use NYC/JFK temps for that since thats what I remember.....95/96 around the summer solstice in late June (JFK hit 96 if I remember right)...then a cool/rainy day very similar to yesterday on July 2nd, when the split was 66/62 (NYC/JFK) and then that all time record heatwave and kick start to a historically hot summer a week later.
  17. LibertyBell
    did you get to 2 inches for the event and 1 inch on the day?
  18. LibertyBell
    wow the blue and green go really well together, Nature has color coordination

    In a few decades they'll have to rename that park to Puddle National Park.

    The following winter we had that extremely cold and stormy 1993-94 winter (after we had our latest ever 80 degree high on November 15)....
  21. LibertyBell
    Roger, July 1993 had the most extreme and longest heatwave I've ever experienced....it was very cool and rainy (like yesterday) just a week before the heat came in, with a high/low of 66/62 on the 2nd, and a week after that we were in the middle of a 10 day heatwave, during which 100+ was reached 3 consecutive days (5 consecutive days at EWR, which includes two 105 days- their all time record at the time), we finished with a record 39 90+ days that summer and 20 of them in July!
  22. LibertyBell
    1979 and 1994 are the only ones on that list I've experienced and 1994 was a lot more snowy/icy than 1979 was and probably a lot more disruptive. 1968 is the only post 1940 year in the top 5.....
  23. LibertyBell
    wow 1917-18 is unmatched by a wide margin....what was going on that winter?!
  24. LibertyBell
    Might be a pattern that repeats....look at my June-July 1993 comparison
  25. LibertyBell
    Don what about this morning? Looks like JFK made it to 59?
