Westhampton: 100° (old record: 90°, 1966) ***New June record/tied all-time record***

One more day of extreme heat is likely tomorrow / Temperatures will likely top out in the lower and middle 90s in much of the New York City area and upper 90s in the hot spots in New Jersey tomorrow. Afterwardy, it will turn cooler for Thursday through Saturday before temperatures warm again.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +1.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was 0.2°C for the week centered around June 18. 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 -0.03°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely continue through at least late summer.

The SOI was +17.57 yesterday. 

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.610 today. 

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 80% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal June (1991-2020 normal). June will likely finish with a mean temperature near 73.0° (1.0° above normal). 

 

You can put 100 up for LGA with the 5pm observation.

In New York City, the temperature fell just shy of hitting triple digits, but the high of 99 degrees was still enough to beat the previous daily record for the date, surpassing the high of 96 degrees set on June 24, 1888. Some areas not far from Central Park, where the official weather observations for the city are taken, did manage to hit 100 degrees, including Newark (103) and John F. Kennedy International Airport (102).

That’s a lot of unnecessary verbiage to contradict the first statement. JFK, LGA, JRB, and the entire micronet just don’t exist in New York City, I suppose.

It’s so annoying how the media constantly says “NYC didn’t/NYC couldn’t” etc when Central Park is often so unrepresentative and we’ve noted many times the issue with the asos citing etc.

I'm going to be a little harsher.  Why should Central Park be the official weather reporting site for New York City? It does not represent New York City climate in any way shape or form.  The NWS needs to get off its high horse and realize no one cares what it was like in the 1800s (the only reason Central Park gets a level of importance from them it does not deserve is because it recorded weather from an earlier and more primitive era.) I say demote it to a lower level reporting station and don't report its data to the public at all. It no longer has any relevance to today's climate, let alone the city, in any way shape or form. And remove the KNYC designation from it so it does not get confused with New York City. It's not an airport and it doesn't need nor should it be allowed to have an airport code.  I really wish some politician cared enough about the weather and climate to overrule the NWS and do all this, it's about time it happened.
