    You always compare yourself to Trenton right? They have 6 90 degree days this year. Odd that you have 1, less than any site in the area. Maybe a siting issue?

     

    Nope. Sited very well within open field, 40+ feet away from structures, DVP2 plus, wireless FARS, and exposed to the sun, sunrise to sunset.  I have had 5 89F days, some of them literally a couple tenths from 89.5. So we're probably talking about 0.5F or less differential. Additionally, a few of the TTN 90F days happened to be ELY flow/onshore flow days, which kept me slightly lower as I'm quite a bit closer to the ocean than TTN. So we've had a couple of strange breaks.

    Southern half of the state dealt with quite hazy and cloudy conditions.  Made to 91 here closer to the New Brunswick reading than TTN here.  It hasn’t been the two weeks of 88,89 for sure .  

     

    The 90s should be ineluctable this coming week here. We've had a few unlucky breaks with hitting 90 locally so far, between clouds and other issues.

    A pleasant 60.1F this morning after 89F yesterday, and 78F now. Nice diurnal swings.

  3. I'm presently targeting the July 14th-19th period for the potential of a major heat wave in the Atlantic corridor. Weak convergence will continue near the dateline courtesy of walker cell LR forcing, proxies for NHEM blocking neutralize, and perhaps most preeminent is the reorganization of lower geopotential heights near Alaska [several standard deviation rise in the EPO progged], thereby forcing not insignificant height rises C/E CONUS. There could potentially be multiple days in the mid 90s [or higher in some areas] in the July 14th-20th period.

  4. @doncat, serendipitously, I checked wunderground this morning, and my station is online! Your suggestion ostensibly worked, that is, inputting the device ID number into the Web Download section of the Communications Port. I spent 1 hour on the phone with Davis going through every permutation, and they even noted that one does not need to put any values in that box! I believe you should begin working for Davis support. :) 

    Thanks again. Here's my station:

    Just a thought but when the new  weatherlink  2.0 website was launched, it now requires you to enter your logger DEVICE  ID instead  of  your username...were you migrated  over to 2.0?  In the software go to "setup"  "communications port"  and change "user id" to your logger id.

     

    Thanks for the suggestion - unfortunately didn't work either. And yes they did migrate me to 2.0.

    Hey Tom, that wunderground link leads to a different station, not yours, doesn't it? Weatherlink also?

     

    Don, unfortunately, when I bought a new laptop and downloaded the latest version of Weatherlink on it, 6.0.5., my ability to upload data to the weatherlink website ceased. So wunderground no longer works either. I spent probably almost 1 hour speaking w/ a Davis support representative last week, but to no avail. They can't figure it out. My weatherlink computer software works fine, I just can't get the software to communicate with the website. If you have any ideas let me know, but at this point, my station is offline interminably.

    89 here also owing to a sse wind since noon...Lows have been similar mid to upper 60's.

     

    I would be interested in comparing our weather station records more extensively. We have very, very similar climates; I think the primary difference would probably be I'm a couple degrees cooler at night on average, but our highs are usually almost identical.

    Weatherlink app says 88.5 (89) so far.  It's 88.0 now.

     

    89F high again here today, after 88 and 89. Comports with the Holmdel and Howell mesonets of 89 today, and TTN topped out at 89 today. Borderline 90F days have almost always ended up missing for my location and rural CNJ. For my area I consider anything above 93 to be anomalous and 95+ very anomalous. Nights have been 64, 64, 65 the past 3.

    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.

    The expansive grass makes a significant difference. I'm very similar to KTTN readings most of the time, which is sited in a rural grass area in NW Mercer. Yesterday I JUST missed 90, 89.4F actual, so extremely close. Your readings may be veracious. The fact that other wunderground stations nearby are warmer than you is not convincing evidence because most are improperly sited, or stations less precise than DVP2 aspirated. For the ASOS spots, one also must consider the land use in the immediate area. Like I said, KTTN is a good spot to check my numbers due to similar land use.
