76 and mostly sunny

It did touch 80 very briefly here this afternoon when the sun came out, but then dropped back to the mid 70s quickly due to the east wind. 73 right now. That east wind felt very refreshing when I was out running.

My 5th floor apartment in Douglaston facing west with open sky got so hot with the westward facing wall of the building and now an easterly wind I am running my a/c full blast to try to fully get the heat out. I ran it all night last night and probably will need to run it over night another night to finally get it comfortably cool. Then it warms up with plenty of humidity on Saturday. Unless we sneak a 90 in on Saturday, Sunday, Monday or Tuesday (and it's unlikely since winds will be out of the s-sw) I do not think we see another 90+ day in NYC until the second or more likely the third week of July.

Continuation of the same pattern into late June. Another weekend with chances for rain but no washout. Saturday looks like the best chance for scattered convection. Drier on Sunday. Then mid 90s on Monday just inland from sea breeze front west of NYC. So the strongest heat is finding a way to happen on a weekday instead of the weekend.

Currently 55 up here in the Berks, 63 back in HPN. I would take this over heat & humidity in a heartbeat.

Nice little round of moderately heavy rain passing thru.

No urban heat island in 1948..... 

Yeah in 1948, concrete and asphalt wasn’t invented yet and NYC was nothing but rounded up prairie schooner wagons and teepees sprawled across all the open fields…c’mon man!

People need to stop creating concrete jungles, not only is it cooler outside of the city, it's also less polluted and much easier to sleep at night and breathe clean air with far lower rates of asthma.

So we should abandon cities and destroy rural areas and turn them into endless suburbs. 
The reality from the perspective of the planet is the EXACT OPPOSITE. We want more people in tightly packed cities and less McMansions on quarter acre lots. Upstate NY reforesting over the last century is a great example of what we want to see.

We need less buildings  like upstate NY.

What sucks is living on top each other is not healthy. People underestimate the psychological damage constant noise does to a human for example. 

Air pollution will be worse no matter how "clean" a city gets compared to suburbs/rural. 

For people, I think overall it's much better to live on that half acre lot than living like an ant colony. 

For the planet obviously it's better if people concentrated in as few urban centers as possible and left everything around alone.

In large part because ocean temperatures are still relatively cool at this time of year, New York City saw the lowest temperature 1 day and 2 days after a low of 81F (27.2C) or higher following a shift in the wind off the water. Records go back to 1869.
