I can get used to hotter summers. I won't ever get used to dewpoints averaging 75 to 80. I also don't want evapotranspiration exacerbating droughts, also allowing pests to better kill trees, having worse wildfires, having more intense monster rainfalls, etc. There has to be an endpoint to the warming. We can't just let this keep happening perpetually. I have zero hope we can get the rest of the world on board regarding getting rid of greenhouse gases. So since they can pollute unilaterally then we can do annual stratospheric aerosol injections unilaterally. I think in the end shit will get so bad that we wind up doing the injections anyway, just 30 or 40 years down the road.

Of course it is. The world was doing that for almost all of the industrial age. Did you have a problem with it then? You only have a problem with only the type of pollution you can see?

Turkey broke their all time record and hit 50.5C, breaking the previous record of 49.5C set ONLY LAST YEAR

It would be a stratospheric injection, @FPizz acts like it will look like Delhi, India circa 1990.

Breaking: the Chinese are performing a MASSIVE atmospheric experiment by releasing 15 billion metric tons of greenhouse gases annually, never notified Americans! Click below to find out more! And you're worried about a small water vapor cloud lol

You wouldn't even notice the dimming bud, sort of like the way you pretend you don't notice climate change either.

Summer sucks. All we get now is wildfire smoke, dewpoints of 90, or rain. Can we get on the geoengineering already. What can possibly go wrong that's not already fccked up

Wow the air significantly more disgusting now than it was a few hours ago

Worst smoke day here since the day of the apocalypse

This is where I got it from: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=Klga

Looks like LGA got to 99.

It's all detached houses and lawns suburbia style where I am and it basically hit 100 here as well.

It's hard to read on that graph, but on the detailed look you can see it peaked at 99.9 lol no joke

The winds were crazy And the rain was impressive

The Ambient station a couple blocks away from me dropped about 20 degrees in minutes with the heavy rain:

This cell that moved through Queens had ferocious winds and rain with it.

The local Ambient stations peaked right at 100, now they're around 98 degrees.

Damn @ag3 is 100/77 with a HI of 117F!

Wow I'm at 98/76 HI 113F. There are other nearby stations corroborating these numbers.

I have 96/76 feels like 110F Lovely

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.

Summer rains are almost always hit and miss and coverage can vary. Some spots are browning, others are good.

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!

Yea even Philly got accumulating snow while I got nothing. The coast got screwed.

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.
