  1. It’s not rotten luck. The Pacific Jet oriented in a way and strength that systematically destroyed our chances especially south of I-90 to PHL. Historically when it’s been cold enough in NYC it’s found a way to snow because there would be a PNA ridge that would stick around long enough or NAO blocking to slow the pattern down. Now the Pacific Jet knocks it all down like bowling pins and storms either can’t amplify in time or amplify too much.
  2. Could be some pretty significant erosion later this week. 12-15 foot waves possible especially due to Erin expanding in size. Any weakening unless it’s rapid won’t affect the wave heights much-the fetch is a bigger player and it nudging west doesn’t help either.
  3. Maybe a shower here if we’re lucky, the rest is collapsing as it heads over LI or staying over the city as usual.
  4. The higher humidity with dewpoints often over 75 helps heat it up overall since it carries more heat. So even though winds are onshore much of the time at JFK, it carries the higher dewpoints.
  5. Might feel a little better with the westerly flow outcome honestly. I’d rather it 100/65 vs the 92/77 we have with the southerly flow. That way we maybe notch another 100 and the disgusting humidity is kept away. These 75-80 dews we get now are hideous.
  6. And since it'll be coming N at 50 mph, on the east side that means 205 mph winds! Bye Bye Fire Island
  7. 155 mph hurricane straight into Jones Beach, 20 foot surge. I’d lock yourself up in the bunker now. And prepare your goodbyes, although everyone you say goodbye to is likely screwed too.
  8. Euro however is a huge torch. If we have mostly southerly flow it'll be the 92/75+ type conditions, if westerly downslope with 20+C 850s many of us will make a run at 100 but have dews more in the 65-70 range.
  9. Few drops here. Looks like a dry stretch coming up before the next heat wave which will help it get hotter.
  10. I’m keeping the climate change/power sources posts, someone else can do what they want with them, but the posts that turn it into diatribes about politics that always lead to trolling and bickering, are beyond ridiculous. IMO if it’s a constructive discussion that’s fine and it’s a slow weather period; when it devolves into ridiculousness it has no place here.
  11. Stop with the politics stuff. Go somewhere else, PM, whatever. If you notice your posts disappearing that’s why.
  12. Depends. If the flow is coming from the Midwest where there can be very high dews, that’s what we get.
  13. The westerly flow blows the smoke back into Canada but brings back the swampy humidity. So we have a choice between waves of smoke during the drier conditions or 75+ dews.
