    summer break always started for us around the 25-27th.

    Finals were after the summer solstice and ended on Wednesday of the 4th week of June.

    Rutgers was out by May 10th.  My son goes there.  95 here, pretty even temps on my block.

    LOL. Yeah my location a little west of NYC is always one of the warm spots. We hit 92 a little while ago.  Have a good time in Piscataway tonight! 

    Thanks.  I grew up there and moved away only 9 years ago.  Im still there often.

    The decline of NYC 100° temperatures since the ASOS was installed under the trees in 1995 is all about the incorrect sitting and not about cycles.

    Hey not only is the 6z Euro AI free (regular 6z Euro is locked on Pivotal and Tidbits takes forever) it also goes out to 360 hours. I don't know how I never noticed lol

    Yeah, that is why I was confused a bit.  I never noticed that either.

    I'm trying to remember all the most uncomfortable times my power went out.  Number 1 would have to be August 2003 when we had that massive power outage that covered 1/3 of the country and eastern Canada.  Our second longest power outage (behind the one that came with Sandy) at 13 hours.  It was the hottest day of the entire summer (95 degrees) and no breeze even at night.  I was too young to remember July 1977 but I think that would have been first if I had any memories of it outside of sitting in the dark with my family and hearing lots of sirens outside.

    Next up would be a 4 hour power outage we had in January 2018 I think it was.  I was getting ready to see a total lunar eclipse at 11:30 that night and it was brutally cold and very windy and the power went out right after sunset and it stayed out until 11 PM.  The high winds did it and I was freezing for hours without power.  The wind came right into my house.

    Next on the list is November a few years ago (I forget the year), when we had 8 tornadoes in one day on Long Island.  One of the tornadoes (an EF2) was close by-- I never saw it-- but had no power for 4 hours and was shivering all afternoon.  The power came back around sunset.

    Next would be Sandy in October 2012 which was our longest power outage (25 hours) I was shivering all night.  The next day wasn't so bad without any power all day, because it came back around sunset.

    Next is last August when I lost power for 4 hours again when it was sunny outside, no bad weather at all.  It was in the low to mid 80s and with a light wind it felt hot without any a/c.

    Next would be March 2018 my power went out for 2 hours during the first of four noreasters that month.  It wasn't as bad as the other ones I listed because the power came back pretty quickly.

    Pretty sure my power never went out because of heat, storms yes, that's why I got a generac. Can't have my basement flood again.
