Gorgeous day at Central Park.

Update on John Homenuk ("earthlight" from his days on these boards) 

Doing better but sounds like he had an awfully close call.  Scary stuff.

Best to him.

Especially with no family history and being in such good overall health

Interesting thought.  Not sure if It’s the cause, or maybe the choice of vaccine—my widowmaker 100-% blockage occurred in 2017 and resulted in 2 stents

Tomorrow will be fair and warm. A storm will bring rain and possible thunderstorms to the region during Tuesday and Wednesday. The potential exists for a general 1.00"-3.00" rainfall with some locally higher amounts. 

Following the storm, Thursday and Friday will see a continuation of below normal readings.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +3.6°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +2.1°C for the week centered around July 15. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +3.20°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.82°C. The ongoing strong El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer.

The SOI was -31.64 today. 

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.391 today. 

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 92% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal July (1991-2020 normal). July will likely finish with a mean temperature near 76.3° (1.2° below normal). 

Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 0.2° below the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

The real difference is that 2009 was near record cold throughout in June and July. This year has had wild temperature swings (since March). The first half of June was warm. The second half not so much. The first half of July was warm. The second half of July is going to be cold.

It's an interesting coincidence. There's really no close comparison. I also doubt that the coming winter will be a close comparison.
