Yes, this is my favorite kind of heat! I don't count the barrier islands as part of Long Island, they are separate islands lol.

Exit Velocity? Great—it went 112 MPH off the bat. But was it a hit or a loud out? That’s the part they skip. Launch Angle? That’s cute. Let’s just ignore the fact that launch angle obsession has turned 180 hitters into all-or-nothing flyball machines—producing three true outcomes: walk, strikeout, or home run. Welcome to baseball’s version of roulette. Spin Rate? That’s the holy grail now, right? So pitchers blow out elbows trying to increase RPMs instead of learning to pitch. What happened to command? What happened to working backwards? Analytics made pitchability a dirty word. Metrics Replacing Men They sold us wRC+, xFIP, and CSW%—metrics that tell us what should have happened instead of what did. That’s not baseball. That’s fantasy. Real players fail and fight through it. Real scouts see beyond the stat line.

whats with all the reds on that map lol

barrier islands maybe, not around here.

Yes, these are my thoughts too and exactly what I'm hoping for. Variability is muted but eventually the elevated averages will win out and boost maximums to extreme levels. It's happening in the West first because they have dried out. But eventually water vapor won't be able to hold us back from our fate.

80 here too and the projected high for here is also 90 with westerly winds most of the day. a great day!!

Precisely, high temperatures. I prefer a Jacksonville climate vs Miami.

Whats the difference between Miami and Jacksonville..... Jacksonville is further north but gets hotter in the summer, why?

I always had this benchmark for high heat going back to the early 90s.... if we hit 80 by 10 AM we stand a decent chance of having the high hit 90. if we hit 90 by 10 AM we stand a decent chance of having the high hit 100. It worked well in the 90s and even in years like 2010 and 2011 too, but not since then because of onshore flow =\

Man, we hate analytics, the three most boring outcomes has made the game very very hard to watch (similar to basketball). Thats a completely different topic though.

Maybe because of the warmer Great Lakes?

It's going to happen anyway, it's beyond our control :-(

I know how to cool the north atlantic much sooner than that. Melt all the polar ice and that will cool down the waters with the influx of ice water into the north atlantic. That will probably happen within the next few decades too.

Brian Wilson died I'm telling you and everyone else, anyone who thinks the people who perform today (sports, art, whatever) are better than they were, hasn't listened to the songs Brian Wilson wrote or performed. There is NO ONE today who was as talented as he was, and right from the age of 19 when he created The Beach Boys.

lol JFK beats Central Park on a southerly wind..... nice

Lanternfly numbers are actually down this year so far anyway.

How do you kill these insects? Is there a way of eliminating them so you don't have to cut down these trees?

and most of the trees are male so it causes loads of problems with allergies

monotype culture, it's the problem with our food supply and farming system too. We're going to face a real crisis in a few decades when our food supply starts to run out. One single plant disease could do it.

when do you think the next -AMO will begin?

Not get rid of but *slowly* replace with trees that are less flammable. It looks like nature is doing that anyway. The new climate doesn't seem to be able to sustain the trees that are currently occupying it.

Yes and even on a human based level, there are likely cures to several diseases in the Amazon forest that we've yet to discover.

Yes, the problem is when something bad happens in nature, the usual cause is humans, not nature. Nature seeks to achieve a sustainable balance, humans have more short term goals.
