June 2025 discussion-obs: Summerlike

tick season is here we can't go to parks anymore they said a deer died at a park because over three dozen ticks attacked him and they even killed a mallard duck....

don't they have chemicals they can spray to kill all these ticks?

Two things I want exterminated from the planet are ticks and mosquitoes they serve no purpose in nature except to hurt everything else so let's make them go extinct.

It hit 91 here before the clouds moved in. The last 3 days it was 90-91-91 for the high temps, so we did achieve a heat wave here. 

I see a storm in Somerset County is missing me to the northwest right now. I just heard a rumble way off in the distance. I don't think anything is gonna make it to my area this evening, but keeping an eye on radar in case.

Permethrin will kill them, and all the other bugs - including bees which we don’t want to do.  I’ve seen literally dead giraffes in Africa die from ticks so dead deer is no surprise.  Sad .  I pulled 14 of my dog after one woods walk.  No more of that.  He can’t use tick meds or collars because of seizures.  Can’t use bug spray either.  Sucks.

omg, how do you and your poor dog deal with it?

this seems to be a really bad season for ticks.

I wonder if it's because of all the rain followed by very warm weather?

Another 89 here as partly - mostly cloudy now.  Rain/storms to the north.

Sea breeze just doubled in speed in about 30 min on the beach. It was remarkably calm all afternoon. Now, not so much. 

[Nibor]

Some decent lightning between JC and Hoboken. 

[dWave]

Quite the downpour with some hail in the Bx now

[donsutherland1]

It will turn somewhat cooler with high temperatures returning to the upper 70s tomorrow and then middle 70s Sunday and Monday.

Showers and thundershowers are possible tomorrow. Rainfall amounts should generally be light except where scattered locations see heavier thunderstorms.

By the middle of the week, it will turn warmer with temperatures again rising into the 80s.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.8°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.1°C for the week centered around May 28. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.17°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.07°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely continue through at least mid summer.

The SOI was -1.13 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.967 today.

Euro crushes us on Sunday afternoon and evening now

I was able to hear lots of thunder from Queens from that cell that went over the Bronx before.

Same with my dog.  Not recommended so I'm don't know what to do since we have cats too. Don't need fleas all over the house.

.6" out of the storm around 4pm, came down real quick 

[Roger Smith]

or a heat burst from nearby thunderstorm? (I saw mention of storms in parts of region, wasn't following very closely today) ... those heat bursts usually happen towards end of a storm's life cycle though. 

[ForestHillWx]

I guess you all didn’t get the rains like we did out this way? 

I am camping with my daughter’s Girl Scout troop, in town, and we got it while we were setting around 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Cooled the temps off perfectly and made tent camping palatable.
