Unless we get some help from the tropics, we could be in for another dry stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several spots are seeing a top 10 driest August while there was flash flooding and rainfall amounts over 5 inches along the LI North Shore and Central New Jersey. ISP is only .89 on the month while sections of the North Fork are at 7.00"+ with 2 flash flood warmed events this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle W Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 1988 had a wet warm July and then a hot dry August although some parts of the area had near normal rainfall...I suspect 1988 did also...It's mostly hit or miss showers this time of year...it looks like another July August with no 50 degree temperatures in Central Park...2007 was the last year with both July and August having at least one day in the 50's...1988 had 50's in both months...from 1972 to 1977 NYC saw at least a 59 degree temperature in both July and August...

tdp146 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 94 with 73DP here. Sitting in the yard after a short day at the office. I will say this- the lack of rain this month is brutal on my lawn. I don't have a huge yard so I try and keep it green because I like to be out here. I've got the sprinkler going for 30 mins a day in early morning and the grass still looks like crap.

Cfa Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 This summer as a whole has been extremely dry for me. June - 1.17" (avg temp 69.0F) July - 4.08" (avg temp 78.8F) Aug - 0.58" (avg temp 80.2F so far) July was more or less normal, I don't know what happened there but it needs to happen again. It's been way too warm/hot to have such a rainfall deficit. Phoenix (of all places) has received more than twice as much rain as I have this month.

uncle W Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 the high minimums are mostly responsible for the high monthly averages...the heat has been spread out over two months now and going on three months...1983 was similar...it had higher maximums but lower minimums...the hottest 30 day period in 1983 was 80.9 and so far this year the hottest 30 days is 80.3...Both above the average of near 78.0...any year with a 30 day period 80.0 or higher is a hot summer to me and it is reflected in my electric bill...

Yeah, the high number of 70+ mins across the region and the record dewpoints were the most memorable part of the summer heat this year. We couldn't quite close the deal on a 100 degree day through JJA. But the high ranking monthly averages were very impressive in July and August. The 95 degree or greater days just looking at Newark was respectable though. ...........95/100 days 2016 12/0...so far 2015...8/0 2014...2/0 2013...10/2 2012...17/3 2011...16/4 2010...21/4 2009...1/0 2008...7/0 2007...3/0 2006...7/3 2005...14/3 2004....1/0 2003....2/0 2002...15/2 2001...8/3 2000...1/0 1999...15/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
