St Louis was flooded out that year while we were baking in intense relentless heat all summer long. 2003: What may be the world's highest dew point temperature was recorded at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, in the Persian Gulf. A dew point of 95 degrees was recorded at 3 PM while the air temperature was 108 degrees.

The reason 80/78 is worse is because it's usually cloudy and oppressive. 102/80 gives you sunshine which makes it feel drier and less oppressive. The sun is a very powerful friend.

Think the park may get there today as well for their 5th (trailing) 90 degree day if not and other do, itll further to distort the perception for the city/mtero area. Need to take a look as TTN seems to be running cooler than surrounding sites since 2020. Not sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have already dropped planetary temperatures down to pre industrial levels if I was king of the world. To be fair, I would also be massively transitioning to clean energy and simultaneously be slowly easing off the aerosols over time. It's scheduled to start in 2030.

Bridgeport: 8 days (tied second with 1974 and 1999) Islip: 9 days (tied third with 2002) JFK Airport: 12 days (third) White Plains: 7 days (third) The combined figure of 36 days also ranks as the third highest. Eight of the ten highest figures through July 7 have occurred since 2000, including three since 2020 (2021, 2024, and 2025). ugh, JFK was built on a SWAMP. I don't know why they have to be politically correct and call it wetlands, there is nothing good about them, they smell bad, and are full of toxic bugs, they are definitely a SWAMP and should be drained.

They just came in 2nd with a dew point of 81 yesterday. So a record amount of atmospheric moisture around the world leading to the numerous extreme flooding events. The SPC HREF has a 2”-3”+ max potential with the better storm coverage for later today. I see a lot of potential in converting all this useless water vapor into drinking water. I read that the first projects to do this have already begun. H20 water vapor is as much of a greenhouse gas as CO2 is, so reducing it would benefit us all.
