  1. I'm actually in eastern PA for this one, vs being in SW Long Island lol. See that darkest shade of purple in eastern PA? I'm in the northern part of that dark blob, about 2,000 ft in elevation (near Lake Harmony.) Do you really think the impacts here will be worse vs my "regular" home in SW Nassau County?
  2. Looks like Antarctic ice melt is accelerating too, based on latest research around 3x faster over the past decade than the decade before. Interesting times are ahead ;-)
  3. Think we can get to 90 tomorrow too or will we be too close to the backdoor front?
  4. Yes I believe EWR is the most accurate now, but no one will use it for the city because it's in NJ lol.
  5. Yes I am claiming 2010 as my hottest summer on record based on how extreme the heat at JFK was- 11 days of 95+! 31 days of 90+! 3 days of 100+! The 10 yr anniversary of that streak is coming up. And the streak from 1966 too.
  6. oh I missed it, must have happened just for a second lol
  7. yeah but EWR has the rep of being unusually hot, as does LGA, no one outside of our forum takes it seriously unless foliage plagued Central Park does it
  8. forecasts for tomorrow are a bit lower because of a front nearby and incoming storms?
  9. you wanna make plans to wreck Central Park foliage? we should get a team together and make it happen
  10. The heat looks like it's centered in the midwest, we're mostly in the upper 80s and touching low 90s here and there.
  11. Everyone hits 90 but Long Island, how is it that JFK cant hit 90 on a northerly wind? It's only 82 here!
  12. Today we had a northerly wind and it still didn't hit 90 at JFK- we're only at 82- what's going on?
  13. with all the plastic now in the ocean, it's not a surprise. microplastic is even being found in the bloodstream.
  14. in the videos I saw it actually looked like blowing and drifting snow haha
  15. too bad we didn't get another one like yesterday's north to south moving system that would have hit anyone in its path regardless of geographic location
  16. when is all this extreme heat supposed to be coming? surely not in the first full week of the month
  17. warmest June for JFK that had no 90 degree temps, Chris?
  18. s0 7/3 should be low 90s for everyone? I wonder if we will get the torch we did last July (it happened later in the month last year), we were tantalizingly close to 100 (99 twice!) with heat indices at record levels, near 120.
  19. think we hit 90 here on Friday or it waits until next week, Chris?
  20. how long did it last? I read back and it sounds like the hail lasted for 10 min and the storm itself went on for about half an hour?
  21. it isn't that cut and dry..... I remember it being mentioned here before...specifically with coastal storms that develop rapidly along the warm gulf stream waters and have convection associated with them, small hail can occur. Weak tornadoes can occur with such storms too. One winter storm that comes to mind that had small hail and even a waterspout just off the south shore was the late Jan 2011 storm at the beginning of its second phase.
