Don I got access to the full dataset from JFK starting in 1948. But only for first and last 90+ days....how do I see how many times it hit 90 (or 100) each year?

More rain coming, just saw reports of rain in NW NJ

Also, I think that twice is the most they've hit 90+ in September? 1983 data isn't in that table but I think that's also how many times they hit 90+ in September 1983?

Thanks Don! I love the 90+ days data.....did JFK only have 20+ 90 degree days twice? (1983 and 2010) edit.....2002 makes it in with 21. So just 3x?

Thanks Don, it just gave me a chronological list from 2000-2021. I didn't have time to mess with it any further than that but did notice that it was in September and one October for 6 straight years up until 2020 when it was in August (on the 27th) so it's definitely trending to happen later.

But not getting more extreme heat unfortunately, the yucky buggy and disease filled tropical kind of heat. I'm doing a slight redefinition of what I consider a hot summer.....this one fits my idea of a hot summer slightly better. EWR/LGA..... at least 40 90 degree days and 1 day of 100+ NYC.............. at least 30 90 degree days and 1 day of 100+ JFK............... at least 20 90 degree days and 1 day of 100+ most of my top summers make this list and the ones that dont, dont deserve to

I love this list as its my top summer list too. How come 1966 isn't in this list though- is it close?

Tuesday may be hotter than Monday

Hi Chris, do you have the JFK list too? Thanks!

Poured like all hell 5 am to 6 am looks like we got close to 2" in one hour! Further east in Suffolk 4"!? Anyone have any radar screenshots of this deluge passing through our area between 5-6? I was half asleep and it was too dark to get up and look through the windows.

Hey Walt- it rained a deluge for an hour here in SW Nassau County between 5 and 6 am for a whole hour.....does that 1.59 in SW Nassau include that? and wow southern Suffolk got almost 4"?! Walt would you happen to have a radar screenshot of what happened here between 5 and 6 this morning? I would love to see it, thanks!

Has a TC ever made landfall in SoCal or Arizona? I want to see a storm go right up the Gulf of California without hitting land until it hits the US border. I wonder if a hurricane could maintain its intensity doing that?

100 degrees is utter perfection.

Mine wasn't a name brand though it had a glass cylinder and a container outside of that. There was a 10:1 ratio between the size of the funnel opening and the smaller cylinder inside so it actually measured in hundredths of an inch rather than the tenths it was marked for. The most you could measure at once was 1 inch (10 inches on the cylinder). Fine for the late 80s not so much now haha. I used to measure snow with that too, by taking the cylinder out and measuring how much snow fell in the outer container. I dont know what happened to it, one day I woke up and it was gone. Likely the garbage man threw it out.... or stole it. Then I had one of those digital ones with the remote display which I got in October 2005. Worked wonderfully for a month or two before it wouldn't display rainfall totals anymore no idea why. I actually have another digital unit (complete weather station with wind direction and speed indicator and rainfall gage but since it's another digital one I'm scared to put it outside and it get messed up lol.) I'll just get another one of these glass cylinders and stick it in some part of my yard where no one can see it.

My favorite kind! That is what I used to have when I was in middle school.

This was sneaky heat at the tail end of the heat wave. Made it to 96 here too, this was the hottest day of the entire summer here.

I got my digital one set up just in time for October 2005.....unfortunately they are hard to maintain and always seem to break down on me I should go back to the old fashioned glass cylinder one I used to have. That one was either stolen or accidentally dumped into the trash lol.

Yeah thats why I find NYC rainfall records suspect, there are probably singular locations like yours that have seen a lot more.

Yeah I guess that's why as soon as I leave my bedroom I have huge sneezing bouts lol. I have window AC not Central AC and only the bedrooms have it installed.

1983 is always going to be special to me because of how amazingly hot it was wall to wall, and even at JFK. The funny thing about it being the rainiest year on record is it didn't rain all that much during the summer, which was perfectly timed and enabled it to be super hot.

Interesting report on Eyewitness News about asthma and pollution rates and lack of tree canopy in minority communities in the city. Minority communities only have an average of 17% tree canopy vs other communities that have 23% tree canopy. This also leads to higher rates of heat deaths in these communities. The goal is to achieve 30% tree canopy over the entire city by 2035.

Chris is there any way to avoid this? I have really bad mold allergies and that year they were year round. Can some preventative treatment be applied to prevent mold from growing? I use bleach but that has its own pungent odor

why haven't they made it here- what's stopping it?

Think NYC gets over 10" with this one?
