Plenty of onshore flow with all the high pressure east of New England. 73F at Williamsport, PA, and 72F at Scranton, PA, also matched record high minima.

Plenty of onshore flow with all the high pressure east of New England. Anecdotally, the atmosphere seems thicker and more "vaporous" than it did decades ago. More Venusian might be a good way to describe it. In my hometown, the normal July minima used to be in the 50s, but now reaching the 50s there is like a big achievement in the month of July. Normal lows from decades ago are now seen as a nice break from the heat. Very weird to see in the absence of any UHI increases. All very bizarre.

Thank you, As always … We started seeing these very strong ridges over the Pacific Northwest and Northeast in recent years. A general expansion of the subtropical ridges leading record SSTs and land temperatures under these near to record 500mb ridges. So the WPAC has seen one of the more dramatic ridge expansions leading record SSTs in recent years. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of our problems would go away if we just had less water vapor lying around. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Showers and heavy thunderstorms will affect parts of the region into early tomorrow morning. North and west of New York City will likely see a general 1"-3" of rain with locally higher amounts exceeding 4". Already, Scranton has picked up 2.32" of rain through 4:41 pm today. That breaks the daily record of 1.69" from 2017. That is also the 20th highest daily rainfall for any day in July. Heavy rain was also falling at Newark with 0.43" over the past 41 minutes. It will turn somewhat warmer tomorrow with temperatures rising through Thursday or Friday. The heat will likely peak on Thursday and Friday with highs topping out in the upper 80s and perhaps lower 90s. A warm and mainly dry weekend will follow. No widespread and sustained excessive or record-challenging heat appears likely through the first three weeks of July. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was 0.1°C for the week centered around July 9. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.52°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.07°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely continue through the summer. The SOI was +1.05 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.077 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 74% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal July (1991-2020 normal). July will likely finish with a mean temperature near 79.2° (1.7° above normal). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LibertyBell Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 11 hours ago, bluewave said: The minimums have set a new record across the area at spots like SMQ for the first half of summer. The average maximum was 7th warmest. But since last year featured the warmest average high, 7th place this year feels cooler by comparison. So it’s all relative to what we are getting acclimated to.

Sounds like a nightmare bro, that last point about his solar panels not producing dividends for @FPizzkeeps me up at night. yeah more water vapor in the atmosphere is actually worse than more co2 in the atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
