Less wet would be so much better, today is absolutely perfect. I have my suspicions that the *wet* pattern won't be as wet as these forecasts because it really goes against climo and what we've been seeing for many months now. We might see a few less than one inch rainfall events, like we have been, but nothing big.
-
I have a fairly easy rule of thumb I use that seems to work well. If the summer is hot and dry it will be a snowy cold winter. If summer is rainy and not so hot, then the winter will have very little snowfall or cold.

any idea why it's worse Ray?

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
LibertyBell replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
189 degrees is the highest one I've seen 140 degrees in Coppen Texas caused the burning of crops, trees and even doors! I love tracking these very rare events! Also look up Megacryoicymeteors !! These are not from airplanes and happened even before airplanes existed. Ice chunks the size of elephants falling for several days!! -
Today was perfect, nice land breeze, low humidity, warm.... the only thing that interrupted the party was those clouds that unexpectedly moved in. We need a nice high to keep that stuff suppressed to the south where it belongs.
-
I wouldn't go by LGA temps either, they are usually lower than JFK on a land breeze.
-
not if it's raining =\ my main beef with maps like this is they don't show sky conditions and that's what really defines how good a day is.
-
what does it mean no intra hour highs registered, Tony?
-
I was a little surprised to see those clouds, is that storm ahead of schedule? Forecasts didn't have any clouds coming in here before tomorrow afternoon!
-
Today is the absolute perfect day, could not have scripted it any better for Mother's Day.
-
Big difference between LGA (30) and EWR (49) too. Was this similar to 2005, Tony?
-
Records: Highs: EWR: 93 (1993) NYC: 92 (1993) LGA: 96 (1953) JFK: 85 (1993) Lows: EWR: 36 (1966) NYC: 36 (1966) LGA: 42 (1945) JFK: 40 (1966) Tony, this must have been the day the historic summers of 1953 and 1993 got started! On the flip side it's funny to see such cold this late in 1966 when that became our hottest summer on record until 1993 and 2010 came along!
-
You're forgetting JFK too. The increase is really for inland areas.
-
all stadiums should have removable domes at this point, with all the money the Yankees have I can't imagine why they'd skimp on a 150 million dollar add-on.
-
The same was the case in August 2011 too. It really was July when the heat peaked and did so in a historic way (In July 2011 especially.)
-
ah they are worried about people stealing the instruments (hence the fences.)
-
But the instruments belong to the NWS no? They should be able to move them to wherever they want them to be?
-
Why don't they just move the equipment to where it was in 1993 and prior? I would put it right in the middle of the Sheeps Meadow.
-
add JFK and it's even more apparent.
-
Chris if we just go decade by decade, and compare NYC, JFK, LGA AND EWR, how do they all compare for the following 10 year periods with average number of 90 degree days: 1980-1989 1990-1999 2000-2009 2010-2019
-
the moon was gorgeous last night too!!
-
1999 and 2002 still had no problems getting extended heatwaves though. 2010 should have the record for most 90 degree days though, it was our hottest summer by a mile.
-
Yes, those were the last ones with extended heatwaves. That NWS longest heatwaves page is a great guide to how our summers used to be. We didn't see extended heatwaves like that even in 2010 although it had the most 90 and 100 degree days I've seen.
-
They don't have the money to cut it huh? I still don't see that heatwave from 1953 or 1993 ever being equaled. 102 in September is absolutely unreal lol.
-
Isn't this the same pattern we had in the winter?
