Maybe someone can take a digital thermometer into Central Park and take a picture of it in there like we sometimes do when there's an errant snowfall total there.

I might.

Great here comes the steam bath.  Morning Rain and Humidity.

Shower-thunderstorm-cloud debris event today has suppressing impact on MAX T here... hoping we can reach 90-92 at 530P.  How it plays exactly I dont know.

00z/06z/22 M-W GEFS and NWS BOM numbers a little less than the amped EPS.  Can't be sure what happens and for now stay the course...but offer hope that this heat episode might not be quite as dire as headlined but still significant life impact in our area.  

Urging: Continue preparedness as stated in NWS products. 

Seems like better chance for the headline 4 day period verifying in Philly--DC areas.  They're pretty used to this mid summer but no doubt it's still a vigorous potent early season heat episode. 

Action packed afternoon-evenings late Wed 6/25 into early July and lawns-gardens will have brief significant dousings etc.   

In essence... headline confidence slightly lower but will let the numbers decide the next 4 days.

Thanks Ralph, I think you were the one who measured the actual snowfall in Central Park too!!

lol. No, I've never been that ambitious to trudge over there for a measurement. I just consider my Riverside Park measurements to be a good enough proxy.

And honestly, the temp at my location might be one of the better proxies for CPK you'll find. Per this map from a few years ago we are lucky enough to live in one of the "coolest" spots in Manhattan - this little tongue that extends to the river in the low 100s.

wow excellent map, it shows the hottest spots in the entire city, whats going on at that location below Central Park thats deep violet lol.  Do they have a map like this for Nassau County too, Ralph?

wow I see another hot spot in SE Queens in the Rockaways, this matches my experience in SW Nassau!!

in Far Rockaway people experience temperatures elevated by 11.6 degrees according to what this map reads!!

that area south of Central Park experiences temperatures elevated by 13.2 degrees!!

In Central Park it's a measly 7.1 degrees lol

Some thunder here with light rain. I see the clouds extend way to the north. Without much clearing today, obviously it's going to be a big underperformer as far as high temps. Maybe we won't even hit 90? Bust today, but of course the big heat is still on for the next few days. 

[Tatamy]

Overcast with light rain here as well.  Looks like we get a reprieve from the heat today (or at least part of the day). 77 F

[MANDA]

Based on latest radar / satellite not expecting much sun until 1:00 P.M. or so.  Forecast highs in the m/u 90's going to take a hit.  Best case is low 90's late afternoon in the hottest spots?  Going to be hot and humid no matter later on.

Just light showers and few rumbles of thunder here so far this morning but that is one thick cloud deck.  Been extremely dark since around 8am.  Per radar heaviest rains and possible severe mainly over NEPA.

Posted this on main June thread ... What I'm noticing about Monday and Tuesday is a very light wind field, almost NW to N as the surface flow begins to lose identity. Certainly a hot enough air mass to approach 100F in the NYC metro but will any weak sea breezes develop to keep readings in the low to mid 90s? I would bet on 102-105 in parts of NJ.

Historically in such a scenario the coast hits 100 early on (12-1) and then temperatures start to drop after 3 pm.
