Heat kicked on. Happy Memorial Day!

I wish the double 52s were the most unbelievable thing on that chart

There is more a play here though. Our minimums have been increasingly warm, but haven’t had the extreme upper 90s/low 100s that we used to have. The obvious answer is that moist air cools and heats slower. People on here like to pick on the Central Park reading three months of the year for temps, 3 months a year for snow, and ignore the problems for the other 6 months...But I would be curious to know if a densely forested park in the middle of an urban heat Island is experiencing this phenomenon to a greater degree. The airports are easy; particularly LaGuardia and Newark...They are slabs of cement in densely populated areas. JFK is much larger, has much more open space with grass, is in a national park, and is abeam the Atlantic Ocean. But I wonder if there is more to this than ASOS placement. Has anyone actually visited the ASOS recently and seen the conditions around it?

This is north. I bet city sees a sprinkle in eastern sections Yonkers-> Oyster Bay track

Thunderstorms inbound. Surprised no posts about it

46F Everyone loves the beautiful weather However, let’s not mask the fact that this is yet another relentless +10 period. It is way too early for this, with no extended normal weather in sight. Very alarming...again

30F frost. high yesterday 65F. Rockies weather. Very nice 33F at Cross County 39F at Bronx line 43F in Queens The urban heat island on these above normal days always fascinates me in its strength.

45F Dense Fog. less than 1/4 vis I love a foggy morning!

28F And unexpectedly cold run this morning

I kept waiting for the power to go out. Very intense winds all night long. 18 F now

We are 200 feet up on a hill ...Winds were actually scary last night 18 F now

37F and rain. Shame

48F under brilliant sunshine in Hastings

Cold Front swung thru. NW wind at 12 kts gusting to 30 throughout region Temps wont move much today

It’s over. A vacation for a few weeks at the end of February brings you mid March. Just running out the clock at this point. Beyond that, it’s wet slop and a note in record book. 39F at 6 am. Well above my forecasted low. High was 54F yesterday.

54F Beautiful day. Good run...But a sad, abrupt end to it all.

Much warmer on drive from Westchester to city. 39F->46F in a few miles. Very unusual during the daylight hours

A sheet of ice this evening...This snow turned to rain and ice after 2 inches. quite the day for winter weather when none was expected! 34F

Very very slippery. Just took a slide down driveway with snowblower in tow

Hastings flipped. Nice way to wrap up February. Although I always snow to rain events. I almost rather it be all rain

Someone north of 287 is walking away with a good event from this

Anyone calculate how quickly the rain snow line is moving Northward? Seems to be somewhere in Bronx now

They let out the schools up here early. Surprising accumulations.

Now it is

Came in like a Snow squall. Moderate snow 38F
