  1. It's hard to read on that graph, but on the detailed look you can see it peaked at 99.9 lol no joke
  2. The Ambient station a couple blocks away from me dropped about 20 degrees in minutes with the heavy rain:
  3. The local Ambient stations peaked right at 100, now they're around 98 degrees.
  4. Wow I'm at 98/76 HI 113F. There are other nearby stations corroborating these numbers.
  5. Why does it always feel like fronts move through the northern tier in the morning and get to the coast in the late afternoon or evening? At least during the summer months.
  6. Summer rains are almost always hit and miss and coverage can vary. Some spots are browning, others are good.
  7. Thanks. My surprise is that no one thought to keep weather records in the much, much bigger city of NYC before or at least at the same time as they started in Newark. The population of NYC in the 1840s was more than 300,000 people and that doesn't include Brooklyn and Queens. Western parts of those boroughs had a decent amount of people at that time. Newark was only 20,000!
  8. Yea even Philly got accumulating snow while I got nothing. The coast got screwed.
  9. It's global geography facts. Like the name of a river or a mountain range or name of a province or whatever. They ask some obscure stuff at the state championship.
  10. I find it insane that someone thought to keep weather records for Newark 30 years before the largest city in the United States. Like WTF is Newark? Lol How is that possible.
  11. So they were just sitting on this data for all these years and decided to all of a sudden release it? I didn't think anyone was even keeping daily weather records in Newark from the early 1840s. How does the weather record of Newark beat NYC's by almost 30 years?
  12. How do the records in the Newark area go that far back? I thought Central Park had the longest period of records around here and that goes back to 1869.
  13. The state championship for the Geography Bee was being held there. It was a middle school competition. Sort of like the Spelling Bee. If I had made the national championship I would have seen Alex Trebek as he was the host of the event! My dad was wondering if we'd be able to make it but it worked out in the end. I remember leaving home with nothing on the ground and then seeing my first glimpse of a coating here or there somewhere between New Rochelle and White Plains. The Catskills got smoked so there was still a ton of snow on the ground even a couple days later.
  14. I went to Oneonta 2 days after that and went through the Catskills to get there and there was still a solid 2 to 3 feet of snow on the ground near Andes.
  15. Looks like they tied Somerville at 81 for warmest. LGA had no chance today with the steady NE wind blowing there all day. Most other places came in at 80.
  16. You do the mansions? The Breakers is amazing and then you can do the cliff walk. Then check Ocean Ave and see if Kit's Kites is still there by Brenton Park. The kites are a little pricey but they are big and look great flying them there with the strong breeze.
  17. Fantasy land sure but day 10 Euro has highs in the 70s and not because of rain.
  18. As of 9AM Central Park is the coldest reporting station in the area, including all the way out to the Hamptons.
  19. It's a shame geoengineering is so frowned upon.
  20. Are those clouds just west of the city expected to get here?
  21. Just keep the high dewpoints away. They make everything far more miserable than high heat does.
