Just because it gets a sea breeze first, doesn’t mean there are any problems with the temperatures. Wantagh is currently 87/74 with a very humid sea breeze. Farmingdale a little further from the shore is 90/71.

Is it possible me being 2 miles from the ocean makes a difference....I'm sort of a hybrid of JFK, FRG and ISP

We did have a sea breeze kick in around 2 PM but it got to 92 at noon first.

The SSTs are peaking  later this year than recent summers. Notice the upper 70s ocean temperatures now from the Jersey Shore to the LI South Shore.

Whats it going to take to get ocean temps consistently in the 80s?  Once we get there we can neutralize the sea breeze.  That happened in our really hot summers when we had multiple days over 100;.

The last 5 days of August are averaging 81degs.(74/81), or +9.

Super cooldown starting Sept. 02?  The always too warm GFS is bigtime BN, w/o adjustment.

Month to date is  77.6[+1.2]. *      August would end at  78.2[+2.2], but more likely just where it is.

*New Site.     NWS more interested in appearances than correcting NYC ASOS equipment's setting and site.   Lol.

Only reached 85 here yesterday.

78*(90%RH) here at 6am, hazy.        82* by 9am.       85* at 10am.(really bootin' it)       87* at 11am.      Reached 90*(60%RH) at 2:30pm.

btw.  Anyone know why the Sub_X( sub-normal perhaps) Model is engaged in predicting the T's for Jan.-1960???!!!

Morning thoughts…

Today will be partly sunny and hot. The risk of showers and thundershowers will increase during the afternoon and evening. 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): 90°

Newark: 93°

Philadelphia: 92°

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 81.9°; 15-Year: 81.7°

Newark: 30-Year: 83.3°; 15-Year: 83.3°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 84.5°; 15-Year: 84.1°

A cooler and occasionally wet weekend lies ahead.

Good morning BW. ‘Statistics’; the data projectiles that every wall of doubt must come up against. As always …..

85/73 and sunny.  It will be a race to see when the area of clouds and associated stroms arrive later this morning/afternoon.  Hung up front this weekend with clouds/ storms and rain at times but continued humid.  Ridge builds back and flow goes more W/NW on Mon (8/30) and Tue (8/31) and with enough sun perhaps a shot at 40 90 degree days for the warmer spots like EWR and C/N-NJ.

 

Beyond that as we open next month the remnants of Ida appear as most guidance does this (suspect is be quuicker), slow to exit the US.  ECM has her south and keeps us in the murky/humid and at times onshore flow through next Thu. 

Ridge and warm/flow for the long weekend 9/4 and onwards and overall looking warm in the long range with nay cooldown short-lived and likely correct warmer as we get closer in.  More 90s maybe 9/5-9/6

Yes he was. Known as the Italian strong boy when he first started. I remember when his championship belt was stolen out of his car while he was having dinner with heroes and villains alike at the Spindle Top restaurant in NYC right after a Garden event. He was interviewed on tv news. Monsoon was involved in some fun stuff. He actually trained Muhammad Ali for his mixed match against the Japanese Champion. Ali was, like many of us a Pro Wrestling fan. ( scripts be damned, it was fun ). He actually jumped into the ring during a Monsoon televised match ( all well scripted ) Ali’s handlers were having panic attacks. When Monsoon lifted him above his head and obviously gently deposited him on the canvas and was about to kick him with his size 20’s, Ali’s handlers swarmed in and dragged him away. The best Monsoon line came from the post match interview “This guy doesn’t know the difference between a wrist lock and a wrist watch”. Fun times great memories. As always…
