  1. The only people that dismiss a site here are those talking about a tree canopy in Central Park. all you have to do is land Newark airport and see why it’s a hot hole. Low flat slab in swampland surrounded by industry.
  2. Absolutely. Looking at grazing NS haha
  3. Sensationalist BS. You would have thought the hurricane last week was an Andrew redux headed for downtown Tampa. Everything has to be greater than it is, when what it is is great enough in terms of historic weather. Oh well. 100 today!! Except it hasnt hit 100 in a very long time because we are too humid to hit 100 now (thats the historic part but not as sexy)
  4. 61F here. Put on long sleeves for the dog walk haha
  5. Because the catastrophic storm that shut down the whole west coast of Florida was a relatively small, fast mover that hit rural swampland. I imagine GA and SC get it worse
  6. i hope this 2 week dry stretch pans out. cant take this rain anymore. if you live in trees, everything is perpetually wet and moldy.
  7. Wasn’t this always supposed to be a weaker hurricane that had sheer issues holding back intensification? I remember saying this like four days ago. I know it got hyped up in the last 48 hours but this is playing out exactly as planned.
  8. Couldnt be better for Tampa metro on current track. Another dodge
  9. We dont. Just records. As he said, climate isnt static. The 30 year rolling normal gives you a short-term perspective. The all time records that date back since the 1880s give you a a longer short-term perspective. None of them even come close to giving us a medium term or long term perspective. 400 years from now, people will have much better historical data dating back much longer than our generation had. We finally have a BN summer month. 30 years ago this would have been a summer with little AC use. A noticeable change just in our lifetimes. But nonetheless, still over a short term reference
  10. This should have been a 95 esque summer. Humidity in new climate ruined that
  11. anybody else have like a black soot all over their leaves and outdoor plastic? I noticed the swing set looking particularly gross, and I went down to look at it and thought it was mold, but it isn’t mold. It almost looks like soot from the wildfires but I’m not sure. On closer inspection the leaves have it too. Wipes right off
  12. considering we haven’t had extended 100s in many years, I would say the GFS is full of shit. I think that would also be the third time this summer they tried to give us 100s
  13. I like seasonal trends. Best way to predict where we are heading short/medium term. Your post is a good description of summer thus far. Considering we are on a march to September at this point, we can start counting down the days when extended 90s arent possible. I imagine if this was 30 years ago, with lower humidity levels, this would be a cooler than normal summer.
  14. Once the departure gates close to the south and west, it all get stopped. Keep in mind almost every domestic flight coming to JFK LGA and EWR comes over NJ or Pennsylvania save Boston and some smaller NE cities
  15. Yes, another mess of an evening
  16. I think this worked out really nicely for the area. Got a lot of nice rain this morning. Hopefully killed T storm chances for later. I can tell you on the aviation front we can’t take many more days with these severe lines coming through. It’s been a terrible summer operationally because of them.
  17. I would say the first round of rain today shuts off a lot earlier than 1 pm for most people. backside at the Hudson now
  18. Shaft to Wading River again and north shore east of Port Jeff. Nice wind though
  19. Its on overnight lows though. And the OP is talking highs. These conversations involve nuance. But yes, of course we are warm. I dont think its possible to be BN with the dews and overnight low situation anymore
  20. What is hotter? You live in a humid tropical like climate now with a temperature between 85 and 95. Rarely more, rarely less. And it all feels very similar: a sticky, buggy, shitty mess. The 100s you want are as elusive as sub 20 degree winter days now
  21. Ho Hum in Wading River. Dying as it heads east
  22. Pouring again in Westchester. We aint Jersey, but we have been doing real good this week
