Agree to disagree. Enjoy your “step down” pattern!
-
But yet you think @ChescoWxhas established credibility? LOL
-
On that note, we make it through the weekend without a drop of rain recorded at PIT, it will be the first time in the entire threaded record that there hasn’t been at least a trace of rain for the first 10 days of August.
-
2nd warmest summer to date at the airport site (1953-present), behind last year. 1995 had a very warm August, however, and is the warmest summer on record at PIT. We’d need to average close to 77 the rest of the way to get there. Not impossible. Top 5 seems clinched.
-
All of those are up by a statistically significant margin.
-
Today is the last day that the normal high at PIT is at its maximum of 83. Tomorrow it drops to 82. Of course, we’ll be well above that for much of the next week or two.
-
Wait, you live on Long Island? -
To add to the above, this July has featured 15 days with lows of 70 or above. The previous most at the airport site was 11 in 2020.
-
Another note on the warmth: today will be the 22nd day with a low of 70 or above. That is the most ever through the end of July, 12th most in an entire summer, and the most in an entire summer at the airport site with still the entirety of August to go. All of the other years with this many 70+ lows occurred with observations taken downtown.
-
With PIT officially dropping to 58 this morning, we avoid tying the record at the airport site for warmest July minimum, which was 59 in 1955. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming of heat, humidity and eventually daily rain chances for the weekend.
-
If you asked a random yinzer if July has been rainy, they’d say yes. But the airport’s precip deficit for the month will surpass an inch tomorrow.
-
Looks like both the high and low temperatures today at PIT are going to come in below normal. The last time that happened was June 2nd.
-
We may finally break our now 30 day streak of the temperature not dropping below 64F at PIT tomorrow morning, with an even better chance on Tuesday morning. I have my doubts that PIT drops below 60, but Tuesday morning will likely be our only chance of that happening in July.
-
I also saw this Reddit post and checked every model run I could, none of which showed anything close to 8” in our area. I’m assuming @KPITSnowposted it.
-
Here’s the list. The warmest in the threaded record is 62 in 1921. We also continue to climb the list of consecutive days without dropping below 64. Today will move us into 5th place on that list, and it’s already the longest streak since 1921. Looking at the extended, 2nd place is a guarantee and 1st place is very likely.
-
Is it too early in July to mention that every single July in the period of record so far at the airport site has made it into the 50s (or 40s) at least once?
-
I was just trying to help him correct his data.
-
Just wanted to point out your “max 90 or above (since April 1)” is wrong. It says 1, but you’ve had 3.
-
We managed a Mickey Mouse below normal day today.
-
Next chance might be next weekend, but even if it happens that’s a long way off and by then we’ll be at 28 days and in 2nd place behind the 1916 streak.
-
Today will be the 18th consecutive day that the official low temperature at PIT has not dropped below 64, tied for 12th longest on record and tied for 2nd longest at the current airport site. Record is 32 days in 1916, record at the airport is 19 days in 1995. I think there’s a slight chance PIT can get to 63 tonight, but if not, this streak could continue for quite some time.
-
Why even engage with this lunatic?
-
Appears the 80+ streak may already be in jeopardy. Not ruling it out yet.
-
Yesterday was the 9th consecutive day the temperature at PIT didn’t drop below 69. That’s the longest streak on record at the airport. Could add another day to that today, depending on what the temp is at 1am.
-
I assume today’s average should be enough to allow us to jump past 1994 and 1967 to be the hottest June recorded at Pittsburgh International?
