71 degree dew point here, a whopping 10 degrees lower than it was this time yesterday (81 degrees). Feels noticeably drier now, but this morning was just as humid as the past couple.

Car reading 98 in Darien, under clouds.

Edit: 100 now.

93/80/111

This is insane. I love it.

Dew point is 80 again here.

Heat Index already at 100, roughly 30 minutes ahead of yesterday.

81/77/88. Low was 75.

It was still 91-92 close to midnight in Queens, temp didn’t drop below 90 until I was roughly a mile into Nassau, when I got home it was “only” 81.

I don’t watch tennis, but I read that the US Open has been hellish and players have been dropping like flies. Dangerous heat.

You know you have me there. It’s insanely hot in in the city right now. Definitly the worst “feeling” day of the summer. I actually went into work an hour later then normal to avoid the peak of the heat. 

I don’t blame you, it’s too hot for anything remotely strenuous. Today truly is the hottest feeling day this summer. My dog kept dragging me into the shade during our walk, he didn’t even attempt to run and he’s normally a ball of energy.

The best representative of the NYC boroughs, LGA, is up to 97 degrees at 3:00pm.

I don’t know why it isn't considered the city’s “official” station. Central Park, despite its extensive history, seems to be a lost cause at this point.

91/78/106

HI has been above 100 since 9:50 AM.

91/79/108.

In terms of heat indices, today may very well be my hottest day of the year. 7/01 had similar heat indices with higher temps and lower dews.

Today is brutally hot, and it's not even 11:00am yet. 

I honestly wasn’t expecting the humidity to be this high.

93/81/114. Not kidding.

I thought my station was misreporting, but this is real.

90/79/106.

I didn’t realize it was only 10 o’clock, might be the earliest 100+ heat index this summer. Also, second highest dew point of the year with 79.2....highest so far is 79.7 on 8/02.

August should finish warmer than July here, mostly due to the warmer low temps.

July ~ 76.3 (85.0 / 67.5)

Aug ~ 77.0 (84.8 / 69.3)...so far, will increase

Damn. 85/72 here. With the lower sun angle my station is almost completely in the shade, so its running a bit low. I also cleared a ton of brush away from it this weekend, was like a rain forest. 

It’s close to impossible to get a perfect siting (no excuse for KNYC though), my station’s biggest issue is wind direction/speed, it’s rarely ever accurate due to obstructions.

Down to 88 here from a high of 91. 2nd heat wave of the summer looking likely.

87/75/96

South Florida came back like.....

75/72....I’ll never tire of this.

Yeah I vaguely remember it too

I wish I had the slightest memory of it, my earliest wx memory came a few months later in the Jan 1999 ice storm in DC/MD.

Southwestern Nassau county hasn't seen a true severe thunderstorm since then (at least I don't recall seeing one and I've been tracking every thunderstorm since 2000 on.) There has been strong thunderstorms over the years with with tiny hail but not true severe.

I believe you, I grew up not too far away in Jamaica and I’ve never seen a thunderstorm produce any damage, aside from the September 2010 event which I didn’t actually experience as it occured miles to the north of me.

Expect a mega one in early march lol

Of course lol.

It seems like all roads (or teleconnections) lead towards above normal snowfall lately. I just want a 2011-12 redux.

Wish I was old enough to have experienced that. I’ve never experienced thunderstorms at severe-level, I’ve never even seen hail before.

My forecast, according to the Dark Sky app. It’s usually accurate, but, a low of 80? Lol not happening, at least not next week, maybe next summer.

Those mid 90’s are suspect as well.

0.48” overnight.

4.67” so far this month.

First sub-70 max dew point since July 19th today, streak ends at 31 days. Dew point topped out at 68.

I seriously don’t want any mega snowstorms, nor do I want any March snowfall, I need a break.

Only .15” at the wantagh meso in the last 24 hours. We find every possible way to miss any precip.

i have also noticed the last several weeks there is an area of convection non stop about 100 miles south of the island over the ocean. That area must have had 50” of rain or something ridiculous  

I’m surprised, Nassau was doing so well with storms. I think even Long Beach got hit yesterday. Do you know the monthly total so far at the Wantagh station?
