After June 6th it's supposed to be well over 90 and even approaching 100.

Oh you remember that too- I think we got 2 feet of rain that month lol. Do you still think we'll heat up a lot after next week? I remember one of the models (GFS) showed temps approaching 100 after June 6th?

Dont worry, after June 6th we'll be well into the 90s and maybe even approaching 100.

I'm actually using this machine I bought online, it has a UV light and some sort of gas that attracts them and they get trapped inside the container and they die. It seems to be working because when I clean it out every month there are lots of mosquitoes, gnats and flies in there.

we had graupel memorial day weekend a few years ago, somewhere in the early 2010s

Does this remind you of October 2005? Remember when we had that training tropical feed all month?

Sooner or later we'll get into an extended dry period like we did in the 60s. Our climate is all about extremes and I would expect that to happen.

Hopefully they start spraying soon. Mosquitoes are a plague that need to be eradicated from the planet.

lol @ June 9, no chance of 100 happening this early

Thanks, this is exactly what I was wondering about. Higher local rises around cities like Miami and Charleston (where a sea wall is now being built) as well as NYC and Long Island, where we are now seeing a sharply rising incidence of sunny day flooding. All of the mentioned cities are.

This increase would "push past the temperature limit the Paris climate agreement is trying to prevent," according to The Associated Press. What you need to know - There’s a 40% chance that at least one of the next five years will be hotter than pre-industrial times, according to the World Meteorological Organization. - WMO also says in their report that there is a 90% likelihood of at least one year between 2021-2025 becoming the warmest ever recorded. - Scientists warn that this increase could bring about "the most catastrophic and long-term effects of climate change," NPR reports.

They all passed away way too soon, Will.

isn't the sea level rise along the east coast of the US and the gulf coast supposed to be accelerating more than most? It would be a nice to see a global map of where sea level rise has been higher than other areas and where it will accelerate the most in the future.

all I can say is if we're not colonizing other habitable planets in other star systems we will be extinct long before 1 billion years comes to pass.

billion years? we better be off this rock long before then. a thousand years at the latest, I expect us to be colonizing habitable planets orbiting stars within 100 LY of us.

that was unexpected I didn't think we'd have rain after midnight here.....quarter inch total?

conventional farming practices are actually horrible for the soil, resulting in the use of harmful chemicals and the environment in general. Regenerative farming is MUCH better, humanity is finally learning that working with nature is FAR better than fighting against nature. https://agfundernews.com/regenerative-agriculture-is-getting-more-mainstream-but-how-scalable-is-it.html Amid increasing consumer demand for transparency and a multitude of labels and initiatives, it can be hard to define what’s truly sustainable in the global agricultural system. By basic definition, sustainable food systems do not take away from the soil or environment. They seek to maintain Earth’s natural resources. But about one-third of the world’s topsoil is already acutely degraded, and the United Nations estimates a complete degradation within 60 years if current practices continue. According to a 2019 UN report, nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history, with the pace of species extinctions accelerating. Given this current state, are sustainable agriculture activists limiting themselves by merely maintaining? Enter regenerative agriculture. Dubbed “beyond sustainable,” regenerative agricultural methodologies seek to add to the soil through a self-nourishing ecological system that benefits the environment in the process. A closed-loop system that doesn’t halt humans’ impact on the environment, but reverses it. Is it too good to be true? How regenerative agriculture works The regenerative farming approach focuses on restoring soils that have been degraded by the industrial, agricultural system. Its methods promote healthier ecosystems by rebuilding soil organic matter through holistic farming and grazing techniques. In short, regenerative agriculture practitioners let nature do the work. Soil organic matter is plant or animal tissue in the process of decay. While most soils are only 2% to 10% soil organic matter, this plays a vital role in soil health. Each one-percent increase in soil organic matter helps soil hold 20,000 gallons more water per acre. And heightened water holding capacity means crops are more resilient through times of drought or heavy rain. By maintaining surface residues, roots, and soil structure with better aggregation and pores, soil organic matter reduces nutrient runoff and erosion, as well. And the healthier the soil, the healthier the crop. When plants have the nutrients and roots systems they need to thrive, they build compounds to help protect against insects and disease. There is also growing evidence that a healthy soil microbiome full of necessary bacteria, fungi, and nematodes is more likely to produce nutrient-dense food, promoting better human health. Regenerative farming practices boost soil health through a variety of techniques:

I'm curious as to how this compares to higher evapotranspiration rates in the midwest, where higher heat indices are being blamed on monocultural farming.

It's why the media needs to be lobbied to stop using NYC as an observation site. It should just be considered a second order station and be done with it. All first order stations should only be airports. NYC doesn't comply to the NWS own standards for siting, so as far as I'm concerned, no observations from there can be considered to be accurate or usable. I'm perfectly fine with data only going back to 1950, that's when the modern era began anyway. The former climate back in the 1800s matters about as much as the climate on Mars.

As far as I'm concerned Memorial Day weekend was the weekend we just had. I took a vacation and it was awesome. Next weekend means nothing to me

they should've just moved Memorial Day weekend to the weekend we just had honestly. Anyone who wanted to take off should have done it then and forget about next weekend.

we've repeatedly changed snowfall measurements after the fact, I dont get the hesitation here.

JFK temps are matched here in SW Nassau

I love it- JFK 2 Suckers 0
