Sundog

I'd rather hot, dry days intermixed with legit below normal days, the way things were. I love the fact that July 1936 that gave us 106 degrees in NYC actually finished below normal, -1.3 by today's fake new normals. 90% of the lows that month were in the 60s and about half the month had lows 65 degrees or lower. Three nights had lows of 60 degrees. There were already 8 million people in NYC in the 1930s, so the UHI was already alive and well at the time. There were more people in NYC in the 1930s then the second biggest city in the USA, L.A., has today in 2025. I HATE high minimums and these digusting higher dewpoints we always have now.

We have 90% of summer still ahead of us. I will bet we finish above normal by the end of August.

If averages are 80 then having highs in the 70s are not exactly jacket weather. It's still summer weather, just not 90 and humid.

Your neighbors sound like morons

Clouds are coming for you guys

Haha It's the Sun, the breeze, the temp and the dewpoints all screaming "beach" for some reason, at least to me down here by the coast.

Something about this morning's weather feels like beach weather right now

Can I have a link to these maps?

Can you post the map you're using?

Absolutely TORRENTIAL rain with this thin little line coming through NYC holy smokes

Those little cells in N NJ are making the next few hours unpredictable weather wise. I wish they would just fizzle out and get out of the way already.

The good news is May isn't summer haha

I was able to hear lots of thunder from Queens from that cell that went over the Bronx before.

My temp has been steady between 84 and 85 degrees since 11AM. I assume we peaked for the day.

Such is life in the rugged foothills of the The Highlands

And you took this pic while riding a bicycle

That's ridiculous lol what are the chances

Is there smoke in the sky? The color of the Sun looks off.

Low of 71 this morning. Boo

I peaked near 89 and now it has eased off a bit from the highs.

88 here

87 degrees here on the local thermometer

They do have good looking maps though, I like their graphics.

Dewpoints are pretty high, between 65 and 70 degrees.

Low to mid 90s is typical in the hotter parts of the country in July and August. But dews are usually in the 40s and 50s and there is almost always a decent breeze blowing. Southern Europe goes into its dry season in summer, so I would see rain like twice in all of July and August while there.
