88 and 89 the past two days here. My DVP2 is fan-aspirated and sunlit all day, but the very rural setting typically keeps my summer highs similar to Central Park.

The 46-day ECMWF weekly mean temperature anomaly, which runs out through second week of August, is around +2. The pattern implied would be very warm overall with spasmodic cool-downs. Lower dew points in the means as expected this summer.

I was 86 & 89 last two days, same unit with sun on it.  Surprised you didn’t hit 90 being away from coastal winds.  I’m noticing since my move last year having more lawn around helps keep the heat down just a tad on most days from what I had at my old location.

Topped out at 88.6 (89) in Syosset today.

Hasn’t reached here yet, still roasting at 91

It's just S of Commack on radar it appears, probably go through in next 45 minutes.

88 so far.  Looks like seabreeze front is making a nice move N in Suffolk

your spinklers go on this morning? ISP and FRG both 85, FOK 84...

No, I haven't turned them on yet at all to date.  Having system replaced next month and backyard regraded too.  I'm now up to 84.8 FWIW

Here's a picture of it, can't put in middle of yard as kids would run into it and my wife would kill me.

I assume you are this 83 in a sea of 85-89

 

I'm the cold spot, go figure.  Maybe I'm the only one with a properly mounted sensor, who knows?

Is your sensor surrounded by vegetation? ISP was 84 at 10 am, so you should be at least 86. 83 is way too low. 

Nope, it's a fan aspirated VP2.  Even my parent's house is 85 and that is by pool stones & I need to install new VP2 Pro to replace the old one, that's seen better days.

Wow 23 degree difference between here and Montauk, 88 now

You're 88 already? Geez  I'm only 83 in Syosset right now

86.3 for my high in Syosset.

NYS use to be 180 days, but they could apply superintendent days to it too as I recall.  They changed it I think a year or so ago, after so many snow days one year & not enough make-up days in the school calendar, so that hours are now used instead of days.

Speaking of school closings, my kids have school for 1 hour tomorrow, to make the requisite amount of school days. 1 friggin hour. Thats barely enough time for me to drop them off and go get a bacon egg n cheese before i gotta go pick them up again. What a waste. 

That's just ridiculous and a total waste of everyone's time all around.  They should have extended two days 30 minutes instead IMO.

Looks like the heat this week peaks on Friday ahead of the cold front. Euro has the potential for NW flow severe later Friday into Saturday.

 

Then looks like another 3 day warmup before cool down again by July 4th.

As a matter of fact I saw some last night in Melville

I’ll start keeping an eye out for them nightly now. My 3 year son and I looked last night but didn’t see any yet in Syosset, so I told him I’d ask on here. Hopefully they appear this week in my own backyard.

Anybody have any lightning bug (firefly) sightings yet?  Figure after next week they should start appearing since it’ll be warmer and dryer. Just curious if anyone has seen any yet regardless.

Maybe a pretty sunset tonight with all the smoke from the Canadian wildfires.

That explains the filtered sun this afternoon.  It was clear sky this morning but this afternoon it looked like a thin cirrus layer & I did a double take since the forecast was for clear skies.

^^^^^^

That wet pattern right along the East Coast is interesting. Hinting at enhancement of convection and possibly close in tropical activity. The ECMWF actually caught the potential for all the flooding last summer in the Mid-Atlantic with the May forecast. So its seasonal forecasts can show some skill as to where the heaviest rainfall potential exists.

 

 

Agree Chris, we'll probably be on periphery of WAR & in close development of the tropics will be something to watch this summer.

I’m getting some huge house shaking claps of thunder here in Syosset.  Heavy rains finally started too. 

Looks like BDCF is moving through Nassau, temp is already 63 in Syosset from 72 just about an hour ago with winds out of the E.

71.9 so far in Syosset & hanging around 72 in Muttontown.

70. Nice surprise 

Knew last night going home when it was drizzle and foggy that the warm front was going to push through so today would be nice for once.  Too bad we get BDCF later this evening & back into the misery called spring this year.

33.6 in Syosset and 32 in Muttontown for the morning low.

63 and had a gust to 42 MPH

25.1 this morning.
