Just too much water in the atmosphere. Many of our problems would go away if we just had less water vapor lying around.

We used to get overnight lows in the 60s, even in midsummer. That literally NEVER happens now and thats frankly insane.

Well if you are one of the 8+ million people that live in new york city proper, or the surrounding urban areas like Jersey City and Hoboken, you never get a nice refreshing night anymore. That seems like kinda a big deal.

Pretty much all the lows have been affected region wide, in every season. Compared to say 80s climate normals our overnight lows are 5-6 degrees warmer now, regardless of the season. Crazy shit especially for only a 40 year difference.

Our summers are basically miami tier now, except with the highs being about 4-5 degrees cooler on average. The lows are startlingly similar, mid 70s (yuck).

So I guess lows in the 60s for July for the park are basically a thing of the past. Any bets on if we see a single < 70 F low in the park this month?

It was already much drier in 2012. You are forgetting hunga tonga.

Our July/August core summer weather is now startingly similar to miami's. The total lack of lows in the 60s in startling. Mornings are no longer refreshing, its just gross 24/7 during these months.

The park may never see 100 F again. CC has made us way too humid for that. Our new summer norms are upper 80s/low 90s for highs and mid 70s for lows with insufferable dews. Enjoy.

we havent had a single nw trend this winter. they go south and they stay south.

Damn what did delmarva do to deserve such a badass winter ? They're out-snowing Albany !

yup sorry misremembered the storm. meant to use boxing day as the example where it DIDNT happen. regardless if u go back and look at most serious KU's the ones which were OTS over and over at a small lead time are the clear minority.

It happens plenty of times. Dec 2010 was locked in, 2016 was really really locked in. The examples where they lose it completely ots for multiple consecutive runs like presidents day or something are rarer

Welp, shitty trends today. Unless they reverse by tomorrow it's over. Can't get a nice solid ridge over the rockies to save ourselves.

I was extremely incorrect. Too jaded from the past lol. It seems like we might make out decently this winter. Next storm looks like it's trending NW
