TheClimateChanger Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 50 minutes ago, forkyfork said: average temperatures never last It's funny. I don't see all the "it's just summer" commenters on X chiming in like you would see in response to a forecast of +10 for several days. When it's 2 or 3 degrees below normal [and that's with the highest normals which have been jacked up ~2F in the past 30 years] for a handful of days, isn't it literally just summer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCPOW Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Do any of these storms look to make it to the city and parts north today/tonight? Not sure if those storms in Connecticut make it that far west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 36 minutes ago, Will - Rutgers said: rough ocean conditions starting saturday, hope they let us in the water Highly unlikely especially Sunday. Despite distance Ernesto is going to be a very large storm, with a huge fetch area. So it’s going to produce a huge long period swell. Add strong sw winds Sunday ahead of the cold front and it’s a perfect storm dangerous rips. I expect all guarded Beachs to be red flagged and closed. This is the type of swell we usually see in September after peak season. Also expect wash overs and more erosion. Long period swells are especially energetic and tend to wash right over beaches. So a lake where this beach usually is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Could be a few more scattered cold pool storms later. The warm spots in NJ may make a run on 90° Friday. Then scattered storms over the weekend into early next week as an upper low and frontal system slows down coming east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwx21 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Another nice airmass coming in for next week. Looks as if we could see high temps in the upper 70s with low humidity for Tuesday through Thursday next week. This is turning out to be a pretty comfortable August after that blazing hot July that we had. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 95° has been the average max last decade after August 25th at Newark. But it’s been a challenge since 1993 reaching 100°. Must be related the summers getting wetter. Had the 2019 early October flash drought been a month earlier we would have done it.
