The dry weather could actually aid in us getting 100s in July/August if a pattern develops that can funnel that kind of heat.
Also 90s delayed not denied for early next week instead of this weekend?
Close call for first 90s here today. Places like Newark & NYC probably won't get there.
Think it'll be a while before NYC gets their 1st 90F given the pattern.
Very warm weather will be hard to sustain as ridge wants to park itself in the Midwest and then fold under SNE.
You may get a 1-2 day heat spurt but that's about it.
Yesterday was our last shot at 90F for a while.
We'll see what happens 2nd week of June but I have a feeling the troughiness to our east will come in stronger as ridging builds in the Midwest.
At first glance there'll be tendency for ridging to focus north & west of us with lower heights around our region.
The GFS is trying to form a broad ridge over the US but it's likely overdoing it.
Thinking June ends up a tad BN due to more onshore flow days helped by very cool SSTs offshore & the early June cool airmass.
I think the first 90s will have to wait till June. There's a ton of easterly flow down the pipe.
I'm fine with that. The 90s could hold off till July for all I care.
