    Heat is over for now. Next bout of heat begins Aug 20?
  2. LibertyBell
    1990 is an interesting year to pick because I notice that's when we started having record heat overcome record cold outcomes around here.

    It's also about the amount of natural resources this immense population uses up and how quickly it uses them up. According to the information I posted we actually need 1.7 earths right now for the population we have just to keep the resource debt balanced. And it's been getting worse since the early 70s.

    https://twitter.com/i/events/1426902907392335872 This is horrendous. So these soldiers sacrificed themselves to save 100 people living in a town in Algeria that was burned down in wildfires. Then a mob of people falsely accused and angrily attacked an artist of setting the fires, when he had only traveled there to help the victims. He was killed by the angry mob. No good deed goes unpunished!

    I wonder if tropical activity will be much more limited then
  6. LibertyBell
    95 is meh, 100 and very dry air is what you want, it's wonderful to run in. I get a natural high when it hits 100, it's like now I'll remember this summer forever.
  7. LibertyBell
    dry heat is awesome, nothing as therapeutic as 100 degrees and low humidity, it gives you a natural high.
  8. LibertyBell
    wow 1996 and this summer are a close match around here, except it was a little cooler then but just as humid
  9. LibertyBell
    Chris, wasn't 1996 one of those other times that it was hottest in May? Also, why are the SST much cooler this year? I thought they had been running warmer?
  10. LibertyBell
    figured it would have something to do with pressure lol. it's why you need a strong land breeze to overcome it.

    Question is WHY is the area of heat limited to such a small region? WHY can't we get the entire eastern half of the country to experience all time historic heat? And when was the last time that happened- 2010?
  12. LibertyBell
    it's because minimum temps are determined by things other than heat, like humidity, urban heat island, etc. Also, I tangibly feel hotter when there are more hot days. The summers that stay in my memory the longest are the ones with no breaks and the most number of hot days.

    you didnt see the meteors that change color as they come down? I love seeing lightning in one part of the sky and meteors in a different part of the sky, thats quite the sight! One year I even saw meteors through a thin fog on top of a mountain

    highway robbery.....I saw the METAR (RJay posted it) and JFK hit 89.6 at 4:20 PM that should have been rounded up to 90! On the south shore of Nassau County we had a 3 day heatwave it was 91-94-92 on the three days, with the 94 on Friday the hottest of the year!
  15. LibertyBell
    I mean it's been hot but not among the hottest. I have a specific criteria for hot and it depends on number of 90 degree highs. The hottest summers to me have been 1983, 1991, 1993, 2002, 2010.
  16. LibertyBell
    wow you weren't as hot as I was and yet I'm closer to the ocean (2 miles from it), hit 92 here to complete the heat wave. Why the discrepancy with the JFK temp on Thursday? It was 91 here that day and 94 on Friday, the hottest of the summer so far.
  17. LibertyBell
    made it to 91 at the airports and 92 here on the south shore
  18. LibertyBell
    hit 92 here on the south shore today at 3:15, it was a wonderful dry heat
  19. LibertyBell
    I HATE sea breezes and I love the land breeze that gave us this night dry heat day. By the way I've been thinking about something, according to thermodynamics doesn't heat flow from hot to cold? So shouldn't that imply that sea breezes should be rare (since they involve cold air over water going to hot land?) How does the sea breeze manage to disobey thermodynamics laws?
  20. LibertyBell
    yay JFK beat NYC by 3 degrees! 92 here on the south shore at 3:15 PM
  21. LibertyBell
    September is now a summer month here
  22. LibertyBell
    it's not perceptive to me, I judge heat by number of hot days and that has to be number of 90 degree days. For me the last several summers haven't been nearly as hot as 2010, 11, and previous summers were.
  23. LibertyBell
    yes for continuity, but there was a break in continuity when they switched to an automated system and stopped trimming the greenery. It was an official heat wave on the south shore, the last three days it was 91-94-92 here. That 94 on Friday was the hottest it's been here all summer. And had a late high of 92 here on Saturday thanks to the west wind and the sun that broke out around 3 PM (the high was at 3:15 PM).
  24. LibertyBell
    Well Seattle reached 95 but NYC did not.
  25. LibertyBell
    Wow Bellingham was hotter than Seattle?
