I am pretty close to the lake so nighttime fall temps don't get cold here for quite awhile. I can also swim in my pool in the 60s without being too cold. -
I went swimming after work yesterday and again today. The next few weeks I'll be floating in the sun, probably close mid October or if first freeze is coming.
-
Did not even think of this, great point.
-
A cold October doesn't do us much, keep the lakes warm for a cooler November and lets get rocking.

Looks good to me. Send it over and see what they say.

Upstate NY Banter and General Discussion..
BuffaloWeather replied to wolfie09's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
We really do have the best sub-forum out of all regions. Everyone here is level headed and understanding. I can see myself being friends with everyone here. -
2012 was crazy.
-
Did you send this data to KBUF? If not I was going to send tonight.
-
OSU says he doesn't see how UHI explains that, all those other locations have asphalt and concrete too.
-
I'm discussing this with a few Mets on the AMX discord. OSU and Stebo are both mets and Stebo works at the Detroit airport taking observations. Stebo said they check the instruments and inspect them all the time so its highly unlikely its an instrument issue. As we already discussed its most likely an urban heat issue. Everywhere I go in Buffalo there is construction.

This has to be the year to get our clipper pattern going. They are more favored in La Nina years vs El Nino.
-
All the stations update at different times, its tough to take those maps literally. That's my take as KBUF said nothing wrong with thermometer a few weeks ago.
-
Have you messaged them on twitter/FB?

Our winters are definitely warming. Pretty crazy how the midwest has actually gone down in average temps Dec-Feb. Look at the scale, its nothing too extreme, but again this is only 18 year scale. It takes decades for the warm to really be felt. *It's vs the 1981-2010 longterm average so makes it seem less worse than it actual is. If it was vs the longterm average it would likely be more dramatic.

Someone start a go fund me.

Does anyone know if SYR recording station has a new parking lot or development around? SYR and BUF stand out as 2 places in NY with the largest temperature disparity. Why is Buffalo 2.7 degrees warmer this month than ROC? BUF: +2.6 ROC: -.1 WAT: +1.2 SYR: +2.3 BING: +1.1
-
Its even more noticeable in larger cities like Toronto, NYC, LA. We have no where near the urban heating those places get. A parking lot next to the place they record temps can definitely have an effect of 1-2 degrees, especially in summer and on sunny days. Blacktop soaks in the sun.
-
Or another way to look at it, we get all the hole of despairs out of the way before winter hits.
-
KBUF updates their temp every 60-90 minutes. Other stations are updated within minutes.

Get your lawns mowed today/tomorrow

So far this month BUF: +2.6 ROC: -.1 WAT: +1.2 SYR: +2.3 BING: +1.1 If anything I think ROCS thermometer is off, no one is negative in NYS besides them.
-
I messaged Kbuf and they said nothing is wrong with thermometer. It’s 59 at Kbuf right now and 61 in Hamburg.
