    I think NYC Central Park is slightly distorted with summer daytime temps to low and Newark and LaGuardia slightly distorted with summer daytime temps to high.

    1.89 inches of rain here between yesterday and today.

    Yea the rain from a few days ago I received only .11 but areas closer to Islip got almost a 1/2 inch.

    Starting to rain again here.

    1.49 inches so far here and more on the way. 47 degrees with winds gusting over 30mph.

    About 40 minutes of mild thunder and lightning and ,02 of an inch of rain. The drought continues.

    Maybe if they cut back the foliage, it will increase some of those daytime temperatures and decrease some of the nighttime temperatures.

    Lee Goldberg mentioned the plant growth around Central Park recording station and how there is to much difference between Newark and Central Park.

    I don't remember them being named 20 years ago but I know for sure some of these storms they name now would never have been named years ago. It seems every year they are naming more and more storms that are not even close to tropical. If they want to include non tropical systems in with tropical systems, fine, however they should not make comparisons with years ago records. The next thing you know they will be including Nor"easters.

    As long as were on a discussion involving the NWS, does anyone know why the NHC now includes subtropical storms as named tropical storms?

    89 degree high here for the second day in a row. 65 degrees for tomorrow and still not a drop of rain.

    If Central Park temperatures are a little to low in the day, it doesn't make up for the heat island affect at night. Another thing is the temperature readings at airports are in many cases surrounded by those hot tarmacs. I wonder if the open space of the airport lets the wind pick up that hot tarmac temperature and just make the entire airport temperature higher on those very hot sunny days.

    89 my high. That with a decent amount of cloud cover

    Ana has been named near Bermuda it is barely a subtropical storm. If they want to now name subtropical storms that is fine, however, when they make comparison to years past, they should really have an asterisk.

    57 degree low here last night, already up to 80.
  16. lee59
    The National Hurricane Center says the low off Bermuda will move over warmer waters and likely become a subtropical cyclone. It will be interesting to see if they give it a name if it only becomes subtropical in nature.

    After a mid to upper 80 afternoon, the temperature has really dropped here also the last few hours, down to 63 degrees.

    Storms in the area here, thunder all around but little rain
  19. lee59
    Had some short burts of heavy rain with a little thunder but now the sky is looking less threatening to my west. So far .11 inch of rain.
  20. lee59
    Short bursts of heavy rain here with a small rumble of thunder.

    Ok good. I checked this afternoon on the NWS site and it said 47. I couldn't believe there was that much difference but it certainly would not have been the first time. So many times I am some 10 degrees colder in the morning than Central Park, when the wind is still.

    I was looking at the temperatures so far this month and every recording station in our area is slightly below normal thru the 5th except for Central Park. The reason, the heat island affect. On April 3 every station had a low temperature of 28-34 degrees, except Central Park which was only 47 degrees for a low. The stations were Bridgeport, LaGuardia, Kennedy, Islip and Newark.
  23. lee59
    It's amazing the record low at these locations is only some 10 degrees colder than the average low temperature.
  24. lee59
    .91 inch of rain here from this latest event.
  25. lee59
    Just passed thru my area with very heavy rain blowing sideways. About a quarter inch of rain in 5-10 minutes. Wind gusty but not to bad.
