  1. to be fair today and tomorrow aren't going to be mostly overcast, the sun looks like it's about to come out right now as a matter of fact. and we got the sun back yesterday around 6 pm and it was a gorgeous sunset.
  2. 17,000 people had to relocate because of Canadian wildfires, regardless of the cause this is bad stuff. I hope that smoke doesn't make it here, it's already forecast to get into the central part of the country. It would be ironic if we had a nice dry sunny stretch and it was that crap that ruined our clear blue skies and held down temperatures (though they'd still at least be in the 70s as long as we get sunshine.)
  3. the weather is going to be dry and sunny most of next week with temperatures in the low 80s, which is great.
  4. but this is normal, our first heatwave usually happens around June 20th. Once it starts it won't be just one day of 90 either.
  5. it's not last minute, aside from the fringe models, this was well predicted
  6. you must love fungus and weeds
  7. electric bill 143 gas bill 95
  8. well we have been using our heating. my bill from a/c is always negligible I only use a/c in two rooms.
  9. Yeah but then like now it's good to miss out on the heavy rain lol.
  10. Mildly disagree about Saturday Tony-- the heavy overnight rain will be over by 7 am Saturday morning and then we'll break out into sunshine by noon or 1 pm and then showers and thunderstorms will move back into the region around 5 pm. City and points east will have less than an inch of rain.
  11. Records:Highs:EWR: 98 (1987)NYC: 97 (1987)LGA: 96 (1987)JFK: 92 (1987) wild-- I don't remember this clean sweep at all!
  12. and sunshine in the middle of the day tomorrow before the convection gets here.
  13. Yes this is what I always thought. The rain will be scattered for our area which fits climo for this time of year-- no surprises there.
  14. Don't care about lows, I would prefer not to have any highs lower than 70.
  15. By the way the sun is out right now, we're on for Manhattenhenge. It doesn't matter how much rainfall these models show, the rain is going to be scattered, the sun will be around in the middle of the day Saturday and tomorrow will be partly sunny too.
  16. No just Friday night and early Saturday sun comes back out midday Saturday, thunderstorms Saturday afternoon, sunny and windy on Sunday.
  17. Yay the sun has come out, bright and sunny here now
  18. The big three for 90 degree days at JFK are 1983, 2002 and 2010. That has spoiled me for 90 degree days, I want at least 20 there/here lol. 30 ideally (which only 2010 reached).
  19. it's somewhat above normal but 15 at JFK and 22 at NYC is not extremely high. I like JFK to be 20+ and NYC to be 30+ (which now seems to be hard to do.)
  20. Yes I've had red roses since early May and now both red and gold but they keep either sagging or breaking from the rain and wind.
  21. I'm not going to shut up though the rain can go away and stay away for a few weeks or months. People know how to water things themselves.
  22. 2016-- I think was more humid than actually very hot, less than 30 90 degree days but over 40 75 dewpoint days here. It's good that we are going to get into a drier pattern starting on Sunday, the heat can wait until June 20th, but getting rid of the rain is of vital importance right now.
  23. ha true, 2018 is a case in point. this also greatly damages our gardens because we get the inevitable killing freezes in March (and a lot more than that in 2018).
  24. The old saying.... *April showers bring May flowers* needs to be adjusted to *April and May showers bring flooding and perhaps June flowers*
