The Rule of "11's" in New York City Summers - Bake-offs
LibertyBell replied to JBG's topic in New York City Metro
There is if you graph north american summers for every 11 year period, it's a sea of red..... 1944, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 2010 were all among the hottest on record -
this makes sense since the peninsula is surrounded by water. That's the big difference between the Arctic and the rest of the Antarctic

Climate Change Leading to More NAO and PNA Extremes
LibertyBell replied to bluewave's topic in Climate Change
This explains a lot about the radical climate shift we saw beginning in the mid 90s, with tropical weather, with snowfall seasons and with extreme temps..... -
1999 had a really strong ending, like 1993 those were the only 2 months with 20 90 degree highs at NYC
-
oh no NYC didn't reach the 50s? JFK must have, I woke up to 58 degrees here and I'm just east of there.
-
Don, I think it was in the upper 50s Saturday morning at JFK? It was here. What about NYC? and FOK and MPO? I bet those were in the 40s! Thanks
-
they should rank them by the ones with the highest temperature if two months are tied
-
pesticides.....
-
thought pesticide use on Long Island might be affecting them
-
wow NYC hit 96 in April 1976 and again in April 2002- the two heatwaves mirrored each other. EWR on the other hand hit 97 in April 2002
-
News just reported on the Philly tornado...... EF3 140 mph!
-
Nothing on the big one near Philly yet?
-
I do but not attached yet. I need to get it set up at the right elevation for the anemometer. I'm always worried about critters lol. The last one I had, the squirrels chewed through the wires. (well I think it was the squirrels).
-
I was too, but I guess people in the West feel differently lol
-
Thanks so much! Hopefully all 3 escaped the wind damage that occurred further to the south?
-
Hey is next winter forecast to be a neutral pattern? So are we looking at the dreaded neutral after la nina pattern?
-
check out the news on the anomalous freeze and snowfall in central and southern Brazil. Old people saying it's the first time they've ever seen snow there and lots of crops destroyed in the freeze.
-
Brazil has been unusually cold and old people are talking about the first snowfall they've ever seen there in their entire lives. Large amounts of crops frozen. Part of the same pattern?
-
Yeah the ones we're seeing are the annual ones. But even those seem to be coming later than they used to. When I first moved to long island during the 80s they consistently came in the first week of July (80s-00s). Over the last decade or so, they've come later, in the last few days of July. I wonder why this is?
-
This year reminds me of 1996, remember we had peak heat in late May and then a humid summer with a lot of rain but not much heat. We only hit 90 once in summer, and that was on the last day of August. We also got hit by a 65 mph tropical storm (Bertha) after July 4th weekend whose center passed right over JFK. Got 7" of rain from that in the Poconos, that lasted an entire day. That was a Cat 3 as it approached the NC coast earlier.
-
Chris have you heard about the anomalous freeze and snowfall in central and southern Brazil thats destroying so many crops there? Is that part of the same problem?
-
This looks like something that would happen in the South lol. I wonder how much rainfall and winds my other home got in Jim Thorpe (near Albrightsville and Penn Forest township.) I'm going up there on Saturday. Do you have any numbers or reports out of there?
-
I think there were some years that JFK hit 100 in August and NYC didn't- can you check these years (1980, 1983, 2002)?
-
100 late in August or early September?

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
LibertyBell replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
well nature does natural population control in the form of pandemics it also happens to lower pollution and carbon footprint levels (so it proves the studies that show that the best way to limit one's carbon footprint is to have one less child.)
