luckily some of us have space heaters to hold the crap weather at bay.
-
I guarantee you if the weather stays like this, the beach economy is going to go to shit.
-
Yes, the skies are getting brighter and the sun just came out here again just now!
-
what exactly is keeping that pesky low from moving, Tony? it moved enough to get the rain out of here after Friday but then it stopped again?
-
it was sunny all morning, the clouds only came in the last hour or two.
-
Southern regions were better because we were further away from that pesky low. We had sunshine in the morning and later in the day, the period of cloud cover was 2-3 hours between 11 am and 2 pm.
-
also with other properties, for example higher cloud cover and larger amounts of water vapor, which will likely put a cap on the extremely high temperatures, while the average temperature can still increase (thus a smaller range between min and max.) This is what you see in the tropical rain forest.

For the city and Long Island, the peak is likely around 105-110. JFK hit 104 in July 1966 and 103 in July 2011. LGA hit 107 in July 1966 and 104 in July 2011 (as did Central Park.) So the peak is likely between 105-110 for NYC and around 105 for JFK and points east. I don't factor in dew points or overnight temperatures since neither measure actual *heat*

I agree, the planet itself regulates how hot it can get. It's not all about human induced climate change, but also the earth's own natural regulatory processes and how they interact with it.
-
in other words our hottest summers will be a thing of the past? I don't buy this summer climate being hotter for us than what we had in the past....it's definitely not, not even for NJ, especially if you go by peak temperatures. It's weird to see it hotter in the PNW, with the ocean to their west lol. I do think these things go in cycles though, so I do think a 1960s type pattern will return at some point. It's all about extremes and that high has to move at some point.
-
it's only 50% cloudy here but the sun just happens to be covered. if the winds stay up they will blow the clouds away
-
JFK better hit at least 105 in that pattern.
-
1966 and 1983 had absolutely amazing summers even with spring temperatures never making it out of the 70s.
-
Yes-- and number1 and number 2 on that average high temperature list had VERY hot summers. From that chart it can be seen that this spring is very similar to last year's On the top chart, it's amazing that 1983 had the lowest high since it was the hottest summer here until 2010.... 1983 must have had an extremely rainy spring to keep the highest spring temperature down at 75. 1966 was our hottest summer before 1983 with 100+ degree temperatures starting in June and continuing into July so it's amazing to see its highest spring temperature down at 79 too.
-
68 here yesterday was pretty good when the sun was out, today might be close to normal here around 70.
-
I think we could hit 70 today
-
How long is this flower show running Don? I want to see it today, it's completely sunny and really nice today (aside from the winds).
-
hopefully it cleared up for you now. the winds are blowing the clouds away lol
-
wow how loud is that? it must be absolutely amazing to be there!
-
nice, did you guys clear up around 2:30 too?
-
and none of those summers were hot either If you go back to 1990 you can see there's even more of these.... 19! You missed the third place finish in 2017.
-
I'm not sure about that, it's been mostly sunny here in SW Nassau since 2:30
-
yes the sun has been out a lot since 2:30 but still very windy
-
it's a relief that the sun has been out a lot since 2:30, no rain here since yesterday
-
this is why we need weather modifications to get rid of ULL. I've seen many mets even talk about this, the ULL is the bane of the existence of the meteorological community.
