88 degrees is also the lowest AUG max temp at Central Park since 1963
-
LGA had the same AUG max as Central Park, so much for the tree canopy

This is thanks to Tony at PhillyWX for tracking, thru 8/24 individual runs of the GFS have forecast 100(+) degree highs at PHL on 57 occasions. Note - obviously multiple runs with 100(+) degree forecasts for same day Breakdown of those forecasts: 100 degrees - 21 days 101 degrees - 15 days 102 degrees - 9 days 103 degrees - 1 day 104 degrees - 5 days 105 degrees - 3 days 106 degrees - 2 days 110 degrees - 1 day the actual high for the day of this beauty was 84 degrees The average actual highs at PHL for all these triple digit forecast days was 83-84 degrees. One bright spot for the GFS's pending 23 days for 100(+) degree September forecast is at least those days should have an actual average temp in the 90's.

Dallas & the Eagles played opening day, 9/3/2000, in 109 degree weather at Texas Stadium. This is the hottest game in NFL history. Sad part for Dallas they had to play the next week in 100 degree weather at Tempe, AZ. They lost both games.
-
NYC & Philadelphia both recorded 100 degree days during SEPT 1881 & 1953. NYC had (1) 100 degree day in each of those 2 years while Philadelphia had (2) in 1953 & (1) in 1881. For both locations the SEPT max temp record is 102 degrees.
-
yes one day around 90 & 4 days in the mid 90's Canadian has long duration heat wave for SEPT now approaching triple digits around PHL, GFS would temper things later next week with an onshore flow from what's left of Idalia. torch SEPT followed by a cooler than average OCT
-
I believe the PHL SEPT record for 90 degree days is 8, very good chance we're halfway there by next Thursday. Even the GEM is toasty next week so looks like there's no ducking this shot. At least this is Sept & not the middle of July.
-
PHL recorded 3 consecutive record lows on 8/28-30, 49, 44 & 47 degrees. 44 degrees is the record monthly low for AUG. Mount Pocono dropped to 31 degrees on 8/30 & Bradford checked in with a balmy 25 degrees on 8/29 - LOL, friggin 25 degrees in AUG Conversely PHL has not recorded an AUG low in the 50's since 2013.

& the sun rises in the east....
-
PHL reached 91 degrees on the 15th. Outside of the usual suspects that run out of tolerance warm many locations north & east of Philly haven't reached 90 so far this month. I wouldn't discount FRI especially for Philly south & west, they are still in the game for 90 degrees.
-
would have been a great forecast for SE Wisconsin, what's 800 miles among weenies
-
Individual runs of the GFS have forecast 100+ at PHL at least 25 times this summer, highest temp so far has been 95 degrees. This is just thru 8/11 & doesn't even reflect the recent onslaught of 100 degree forecasts for future dates. You can upgrade that model all you want but it's still embarrassing.
-
Since 2010 Sept has been much more summer like as opposed to the traditional start of fall. Recently Sept has been great month to hit the S. Jersey beaches, ocean water in the 70's & plenty of days in the 80's even late in the month. My personal clock doesn't hit fall until OCT 1st.

51 degrees at ABE this morning, 2nd coldest for the date (49 degrees - 1947)

36 degrees in Saranac Lake, NY this morning. Coldest for the date since the record low of 34 in 1959.

LOL, torch wind at PHL is a west wind which isn't a flow off the Delaware. Wilmington is several miles off the river which is SE of the airport so again torch winds there aren't coming off the river. For Trenton the river is a fraction of the size & has no affect on the ASOS a mile or two away & over 150' up hill. There's reason why these top line ASOS stations haven't reached 100 degrees in 11 yrs. It's because they're consistent, reliable & represent their surrounding area's very well. Newark represents a patch of rock hard ground immediately adjacent to miles of black runway asphalt & 12 lanes of nonstop traffic. Other locations like Mt. Holly are consistently out of tolerance warm. Even bigger LOL is you referencing Murrysville in conjunction will Philly, that location is a suburb of Pittsburgh. Most likely another garbage station since Pittsburgh hasn't recorded 100 degrees since 1995. Harrisburg & Williamsport are also locations nowhere near PHL.

Looking at Philadelphia quite a stark contrast to the recent trends at this point in the year. At PHL this will be the coolest June since 1985, depending on the high today will finish at 70.6 or 70.7 degrees. PHL has yet to record a 70 degree minimum at this point in the year. Over the entire 150yr POR the average date of the 1st 70 degree minimum is 6/10. Since 2000 that average date moves forward considerably to 5/30. It's a top 10 latest date on record at this point & likely the latest since 1983. It also appears likely that PHL will finish June with only (1) 90 degree day this year. Regardless if for some reason today hits 90 that will still represent the fewest 90 degree days at this point in the year since 1982. Below are a listing of the 27 years with 0-2 90 degree days thru June. The record low max of 66 degrees on 6/21 was the 1st June record low of any kind at PHL since the record low max of 67 degrees on 6/21/1999.

1980 was another year in which Texas was baking to start the summer. For 21 of the 30 days from 6/19 thru 7/18 the record highs at Dallas are from 1980. The stretch included 11 consecutive days from 6/23 thru 7/3 with record highs. Looking back at 1980 locally June was similar to this year temp wise. As the summer progressed July turned very warm compared to the averages at that time & Aug was a dry torch by any standard. It's the warmest AUG on record at Central Park & #3 for Philly.

Corridor from N. Delaware to NE Philly has now recorded 9-12" for the month. Officially Wilmington (11.91") will at least finish with the 3rd wettest June on record. Locally 4.81" since FRI 6.47" for the month
-
Tempest recorded 11,315 lightning strikes yesterday & this morning. Non stop lightning with the 2 warned cells last evening. 2.12" yesterday & this morning, 5.46" for the month
-
The ranking thru 6/22 is irrelevant to my point. How PHL ends the month is what was actually addressed. PHL is currently 69.2 degree for the month, projecting out the remainder of the month based on the current forecast PHL would end up at 70.6 degrees. If so that would represent the coolest June since 1985. It's not out of the question PHL ends up with the coolest June since 1985
-
By that timeframe average highs across Philly / NYC metro areas are in the mid to uppers 80's so low 90's are nothing to write home about. It then becomes can we avoid the 95+ crap. Regardless of whether July & August end up following the recent torch trends this has been fantastic 2nd half of spring & segue into early summer. It's not out of the question PHL ends up with the coolest June since 1985
-
Assuming you mean 10"-15" in the hole for the year? Philadelphia precip records go back to 1872 & there're only 3 yrs. in which there was a double digit deficit thru Aug: 1995 (-12.85") 1992 (-11.08") 1964 (-10.39") Note - based on the current precip averages which overall are the wettest on record, actual monthly averages were lower for those years compared to the current figures. Sept 2005 was the 2nd driest Sept on record, Sept 2006 was solidly wetter than average.

Only in the Philly forum could an historic smoke outbreak enveloping the region segue into a discussion about old dive bars & strip joints.
