So basically the maximum heat was off to our west, but both years, in July we had a short time when we were under the tongue of max heat and exceeded 100 degrees. This sounds like the summer equivalent of a strengthening low pressure getting too close to us and changing snow over to rain because of an onshore push- are they equivalent? So far this season, the ridge axis has been pushed up to the north of our latitude. This was the same story from 2018 to 2020 with the most impressive record highs to our north. This lead to more onshore flow and record high dew points. Plenty of mid to upper 90s heat with the 100°+ maxes at places like LGA and points north. Almost like a version of the SE US Coastal summer moist trade winds pattern. Those places have very high 90° day counts but not many 100° days. Our last widespread 100°s at all stations from EWR to ISP was back the 2010 to 2013 era. The ridge axis was right over the Great Lakes with a strong westerly flow pattern. Same for the July 1995 heatwave. The ridge axis in recent years has stretched further north allowing the warmest 850 mb temperatures to go to our north. That difference has allowed more of a southerly component to the flow than westerly. So we’ll have to see how the ridge axis rebuilds once we get to late June and July. June 2021 so far Peak July heat pattern since 2018 2010-2013 pattern with mid July 1995 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIK62 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Following similar path as yesterday. I am lagging behind at 77* for Noon, and down to 76* at 1pm. Cumulus clouds again gathering, but not threatening yet. Most likely time for the City is probably 4pm-9pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossbowftw3 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Those storms blew up right over me basically. Half an hour’s worth of heavy rain has stabilized things here. Radar presentation almost looks like an MCS beginning to bubble up. 72/71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
