and Mineola hit 109 in 2011 didn't they?

It was July 2010 with the 108° reading. July 2011 was missing and the station shut down several months later. July 2010 was the all-time high and the all-time low was -5° in 1943 but they got close in 1994.

The JFK ASOS is closer to the water than your area is. When I used to live in Long Beach it could be 85° but closer to 90° from Sunrise to Southern State. So the 90° counts steadily increase away from the immediate shoreline.

 

 

 Numerous times driving up to the Roosevelt Field area/Mineola and having the window down in Long Beach to needing to blast the AC up there. Especially in April-June.

Definitely. Driving the Meadowbrook north you always felt it getting warmer once past Merrrick Road and especially once north of the Southern State. The opposite was true in the winter. Left Long Beach many times with rain and had the snow start mixing in north of Merrick road.

Don’t remind me about the R/S line nightmares. At least now in this perma-Nina we’re all suffering.

Valentines Day 2007 was one of the more unusual frozen precip patterns I ever saw in the area. Started as heavy sleet across Nassau enough to collapse a gas station canopy in Island Park. Then it turned to steady freezing rain south of Sunrise with a .25 to .50 accumulation on the trees and wires in Long Beach. No freezing rain from north of sunrise. So it was the only ice storm to get limited to the immediate South Shore.

A veil of thin wildfire smoke is moving through the region. That area of smoke will be driven well offshore overnight.

Generally near normal readings will prevail through the week. Warmer air will begin to arrive to close the weekend. There is some potential that the month could end on a hot note. Heat will likely return during the first week in August.

The latest summer guidance continues to suggest a warmer to much warmer than normal summer lies ahead. Some of the extended range guidance suggests that August could be warmer to much warmer than normal.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.5°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was 0.2°C for the week centered around July 17. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.47°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.25°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely evolve into a La Niña event during the late summer or early fall.

The SOI was +14.22 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.803 today.

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 96% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal July (1991-2020 normal). July will likely finish with a mean temperature near 79.8° (2.3° above normal). That would tie 2024 with 2013 as the 10th hottest July on record.

Historical: 

1891 - The mercury hit 109 degrees at Los Angeles, CA, marking the peak of a torrid heat wave. (David Ludlum)

1936: Lincoln, Nebraska saw an all-time high temperature of 115 degrees. The low only dropped to 91 degrees and the average temperature was 103. Many people spent the night sleeping outside to escape the heat. 

1956 - The Andrea Doria sank in dense fog near Nantucket Lightship, MA. The ship was rammed by the Swedish-American liner, Stockholm, forty-five miles off the coast of Massachusetts. Fifty-two persons drowned, or were killed by the impact. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel)

1986 - Tremendous hailstones pounded parts of South Dakota damaging crops, buildings and vehicles. Hail piled two feet deep at Black Hawk and northern Rapid City. Hail an inch and a quarter in diameter fell for 85 minutes near Miller and Huron, piling up to depths of two feet. (The Weather Channel)

1987 - Sixteen cities in the eastern U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. Beckley, WV, equalled their all-time record high of 91 degrees, established just the previous day. It marked their fourth day in a row of 90 degree heat, after hitting 90 degrees just twice in the previous 25 years of records. The water temperature of Lake Erie at Buffalo, NY, reached 79 degrees, the warmest reading in 52 years of records. (The National Weather Summary)

1988 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather from central Kansas to western Kentucky and southern Illinois during the day. Thunderstorms produced tennis ball size hail at Union, MO, and winds gusts to 65 mph at Sedalia, MO. Five cities in Washington and Oregon reported record high temperatures for the date. Medford, OR, hit 107 degrees. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - Early afternoon thunderstorms over west central Missouri drenched the town of Ferguson with four inches of rain. Early evening thunderstorms in Pennsylvania produced more than two inches of rain north of Avella in one hour. (The National Weather Summary)

 

2005: The citizens of Sand Point, Alaska saw a rare tornado touchdown on two uninhabited islands. Sand Point is part of the Aleutian Chain and is located about 570 miles southwest of Anchorage.

Perfect timing for the smoke to show up today and mess up the blue skies

[bluewave]

Much more comfortable temperatures to close out the month with a cutoff low getting stuck under the block early next week. Could be our next chance of rain by Monday. Exact amounts will depend on the track of the surface low looping back to the coast.

A precursor to the tropics later?

Very pleasant out there this morning.  Overnight low of 60 with a light breeze and low DP's.  Don't get much better than this for late July!

75 / 53 and very nice out.  A 72 hour stretch of really great weather this weekend.   Mid / upper 80s today and  Sat and Sun with the warmer spot reaching 90.  Cut off low as the ridge builds north backs in Mon (7/29) to spoil the nice stretch.   Continue a bit cloudy by Tue as front clears through.  Hotter by the 31s with heat aimed north and inland initially and next heatwave.  Tropics becoming forecast active, especially on the European.  Ridge west / North and Atlantic ridge keep us caught between - warm - hot and humid with potential rain / storm chances.

 

[SACRUS]

Much of this dependent on the backing NW closed low Monday overnight.  Then convection Tue / Wed .  Summer theme keeps the MW/GL wet-  Monsoon very active this year in the desert SW

True, and its nothing like it was at its peak last year when it was low to the ground. Most people probably wont even notice, they didn't last year either until it got to ground level. But I know its there, I know its there dammit!   Anyway, a delightful low of 57/55 earlier this morning.

Absolutely, the low level smoke early last June was off the charts. Those fires were much closer in Eastern Canada. This is higher altitude smoke originating over the western portion of the continent.
