NYC is on the verge of having its first July and August to both reach 10” of rain. Three Julys and three Augusts picked up 10”. But never before in the same summer. This only occasionally happens in Miami. The last summer there to do this was 2019.

Morning thoughts…

The rain has departed, but heat and humidity have arrived…

Today will be mostly sunny and very warm. High temperatures will likely reach the upper 80s and lower 90s in most of the region.  Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 89°

Newark: 94°

Philadelphia: 93°

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 82.5°; 15-Year: 82.2°

Newark: 30-Year: 83.8°; 15-Year: 83.8°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 85.0°; 15-Year: 84.6°

The very warm weather will continue through Friday.

87/67 here before noon.  Places in NJ could have a 5 day heatwave Mon (8/23) who hit 90 monday.  Tue (8/24) through Fri (8/27) heat is on.  850 temps peak in the >18c range Wed / FRi before the front this weekend.  Next week Mon (8/30) into mid week looks like the next chance at heat and more 90s.

 

Longer range overall warm/humid into the start of next month.

EWR and some sites in Central and North Jersey will make a run on 40 90(+) days this week.  Look to add more to those totals as we get into the end of the month and next month.

Yeah, today is the 36th day to reach 90° at Newark. The airport finished the season with 45.7” of snow. So this could only be the 2nd time on record along with 2010 to reach 40” of snow and 40 days of 90°.

After reviewing hourly .PDF data that goes back to 1889, an extended Central Park record of hourly rainfall of 1.50” or above. The electronic database only goes back to 1943. Note: all hours are in standard time.
