Feeling cheated here at just 85+.  lol

The NYSIO total output is approaching  30GW at Noon.   I do not know what the record consumption is, but I do not think the system can produce more than 32GW, on its own.   Comments?

Update at 12:30pm        I have 86+ now, and the NYSIO has exceeded the 30GW.

You can check for yourself at:     http://www.nyiso.com/public/index.jsp

They are reporting all is Normal  and w/o any warning flags, as of 12:30pm

Update at 1pm.              I have 87+ now.     NYSIO reporting 30.5GW.

Update at 1:15pm          I have 88+ now.     NYSIO reporting 30.8GW.

Okay so this is now turning into a historic late season heat event. I'm sorry that I don't have anything more than anecdotal evidence for my claims. Maybe the warm Atlantic is helping some of these stations reach record highs.

Late in the season it’s fairly easily for JFK or ISP even with a south wind to reach the lower 90s.  Higher than 93-94 probably won’t happen but you can easily get there

90/77/104 at ISP (down from 91)

 

91/74/100 at FRG

 

92/76/104 here

 

Thats a record high for ISP, not sure about FRG. 

Excessive Heat Warning should have been issued, as Heat Index is 104+ in spots now.

Today is brutally hot, and it's not even 11:00am yet. 

I honestly wasn’t expecting the humidity to be this high.

93/81/114. Not kidding.

I thought my station was misreporting, but this is real.
