dWave Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 1 hour ago, SnoSki14 said: This is true. In fact I read somewhere you could squeeze the entire human population into Texas alone. Everything you said about cities vs rural/suburbs is also true. The fact people travel hours everyday just to get to & from work is insane and very bad for the environment. The new Census data show urban population is growing rapidly in the US while rural pop continues to decline. We are an increasingly urban nation in terms of where people live. Southern and western cities are growing the most, some places with limited water supply as someone pointed out here earlier. But still NYC is now up to 8.8 million and Westchester County passed 1 million for the first time ever, thanks in part to Yonkers, now the 3rd largest city in NYS, passing Rochester Overall population growth is the slowest its been in a long time which isn't a good thing, but its trending much more toward cities.

winterwx21 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 97 degrees here right now. That's the high temp we had yesterday, but it feels slightly better than yesterday. Helps that the dewpoints are a little lower today. Yesterday was horrendous with the heat index up to 110. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t feel so bad. This has been a well known issue for a long time. Since the NWS left Rockefeller Center in the early 90s, the quality of the Central Park weather observations has declined.

CIK62 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 July was Earth's hottest month on record (Source: The Hill, 8/13/21) July 2021 was the planet’s hottest month ever recorded, according to data released Friday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA’s numbers indicate the earth’s combined land and ocean-surface temperature was 1.67 degrees Fahrenheit above the 20th century average of 60.4 degrees. The temperature was 0.02 degrees above the previous hottest month, July 2016, after 2019 and 2020 matched the 2016 record. The Northern Hemisphere, meanwhile, saw an all-time high July land-surface-only temperature at 2.77 degrees above average. The previous record, July 2012, was 2.14 degrees above average. Asia also saw its single hottest July on record, according to NOAA, while Europe tied its second-highest, July 2010. Arctic sea ice coverage, meanwhile, was at its fourth-lowest level for July in the 43 years NOAA has kept records. July 2012, 2019 and 2020 were the only years Arctic sea ice was smaller. However, Antarctic sea ice saw its largest extent since 2015 and the overall eighth-highest extent on record. “In this case, first place is the worst place to be,” NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad said in a statement. “July is typically the world’s warmest month of the year, but July 2021 outdid itself as the hottest July and month ever recorded. This new record adds to the disturbing and disruptive path that climate change has set for the globe.” Based on both the latest data and numbers from June, 2021 will likely end up one of the 10 warmest recorded years, according to NOAA, citing a projection from the National Centers for Environmental Information. The data’s release comes days after a long-awaited report from the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which issued a dire warning on global temperatures. The report projected average global temperatures 1.5 degrees higher than the pre-industrial baseline by 2040, past the previously established point the U.N. agency said would result in major impacts on weather, biodiversity and food availability. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Temperatures surged into the 90s across most of the region today. 90° Days for Select Cities (through August 13): Albany: 4 (2020: 13 days; 5-Year Average: 13.6 days) Allentown: 21 (2020: 24 days; 5-Year Average: 27.6 days) Baltimore: 40 (2020: 46 days; 5-Year Average: 44.6 days) Boston: 19 (2020: 14 days; 5-Year Average: 17.2 days) Bridgeport: 10 (2020: 11 days; 5-Year Average: 13.4 days) Burlington: 9 (2020: 20 days; 5-Year Average: 13.0 days) Harrisburg: 28 (2020: 35 days; 5-Year Average: 30.6 days) Hartford: 20 (2020: 39 days; 5-Year Average: 29.0 days) Islip: 5 (2020: 8 days; 5-Year Average: 9.4 days) New York City-JFK: 7 (2020: 12 days; 5-Year Average: 10.2 days) New York City-LGA: 20 (2020: 34 days; 5-Year Average: 29.4 days) New York City-NYC: 14 (2020: 20 days; 5-Year Average: 18.2 days) Newark: 31 (2020: 32 days; 5-Year Average: 31.2 days) Philadelphia: 28 (2020: 36 days; 5-Year Average: 34.6 days) Scranton: 16 (2020: 25 days; 5-Year Average: 16.4 days) Washington, DC: 37 (2020: 46 days; 5-Year Average: 50.8 days) New York City-Newark Average: 18 (2020: 22 days) ...Expected: 20 (based on regression equation tied to JFK-LGA-EWR data) A cold front will move across the region tomorrow. It could trigger showers and thunderstorms. Sunday will turn cooler. At least the first half of next week will likely see near to somewhat below normal readings. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.7°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.3°C for the week centered around August 4. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.48°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.23°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely prevail into mid-September. The SOI was +3.34 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -0.008 today. On August 11 the MJO was in Phase 2 at an amplitude of 2.408 (RMM). The August 10-adjusted amplitude was 1.962 (RMM). Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 54% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal August (1991-2020 normal). August will likely finish with a mean temperature near 76.2° (0.2° above normal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 The strongest heat was west of the Hudson this summer. Newark is currently at the 8th warmest summer position. LGA is currently at the 11th warmest summer temperature. ISP is similar to the LGA ranking at 12 warmest. The much warmer climate allowed a place like ISP to still rank this high even with only a+1.6…June….-0.4…July….-0.7…August. Last summer was an east of the Hudson heat pattern with LGA and ISP top 3 warmest through August 13th and Newark in 6th place.
