  1. 93.6 here, dew point 65, west wind makes it hotter but more bearable without that moist onshore flow.
  2. 93 here, dew point 67. West wind feels more comfortable at these temperatures than the onshore wind bringing all that moisture.
  3. LaGuardia seems to be in world of its own. Maybe there is too many jet engines to close to the weather station.
  4. My wife and I were just commenting on that sky, looked great.
  5. With all the talk about hot temperatures and arctic sea ice melting, just to cool things off, the current temperature at the South Pole is -68 and wind chill -100.
  6. I was just checking buoy reports in our area. Sure enough, water temperatures in our area are close to 80, yet Atlantic City is 68.7 as of this afternoon. Ocean City Md. to Cape May N.J. appear to be about 75. https://www.nodc.noaa.gov/dsdt//cwtg/satl_tmap.html
  7. This is about the best I can find for location of the weather station at LaGuardia, for anyone interested. https://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/KLGA
  8. Another day where LaGuardia is one of the hottest places around. I'm sure Newark is not far behind.
  9. 76.9 is the warmest month I see at Brookhaven National labs. Central Park has had numerous 80 and above
  10. I was a kid way before 1994 and growing up the summers were cooler than now but also dryer. I think there is much more storm activity now than then. I find it more interesting now.
  11. It is the hottest time of the year and we are in a heatwave. At least my pool temperature is warm, it won't be long until it's to cool to go in.
  12. Virginia has quite a variation from north to south. Areas of northern Virginia, such as Dulles airport, have always been fairly close to NYC temperatures, at least in the colder months. The summer months down there are hotter.
  13. The past 20 years in our area are milder, wetter, more snow and stormier. I actually like it better.
  14. Yes all areas have risen but nighttime temperatures fall so much more in rural areas. I should add, especially on quiet nights with no wind.
  15. NYC average annual temperature in the past 120 years has gone up 3.6 degrees.
  16. Lets not forget the heat island affect, especially when it comes to night time temperatures. NYC has had a skyscraper boom in the past 10-15 years. That concrete simply does not allow the heat to escape at night.
  17. So in 50 years the average dew point temperature at Islip has gone from 64 to about 66-67. It does look like we have been in a high trend for the past 9 years. Before 2010 it doesn't look like a big change.
  18. Hanna is now a hurricane, first one of the season.
  19. Hanna is becoming more impressive looking while Gonzalo doesn't even look tropical.
  20. My high temperature this month is 96 and the low 63. I have had 3.78 inches of rain. Central Park is about 3 degrees above normal so far this month.
  21. .10 of an inch between yesterday and last night but over a 1/2 inch this morning. We needed it, been missing most of the heavy rain.
  22. Only received a tenth of an inch of rain between yesterday and last night. In the past hour I have gotten a 1/2 inch.
