  1. Man, if only these storm tracks can hold this winter. Not only was last winter warm but it was boring as well.
  2. Sometimes you just have to learn to take the L man.
  3. The wind is the bigger story right now, it's really whipping out there. It actually feels nice because it's not that chilly until the rain starts then it gets nasty.
  4. Yes but that was skewed heavily by Labor Day week being near record breaking warmth. The 2nd week of September and beyond was back closer to normal where it's been highs in the 70s for the most part. We're also in a climate now where "old normal" temps feel relatively cool because it's been so hot, especially due to the humidity, in recent years.
  5. I live not far from LaGuardia which is considered one of the hot spots for morning lows and there have been many cool mornings, not just a few cool days. August had many beautiful, low humidity days. It was the Labor Day week stretch with the real hot days and that's been it for the most part for REAL summer weather in the last 4-5 weeks. Pretty close to normal temps but with much lower humidity than we've been accustomed to in recent years.
  6. It wasn't even an endless summer anyway in terms of heat/above normal temps. Outside of a hot stretch during Labor Day week, the last month has been quite comfortable and actually fall-like in the morning a lot of days. One of the best late summer stretches in years at least for those of us who prefer not to have swamp ass.
  7. City is a nightmare today. The combination of the U.N. Assembly, a whole bunch of protestors and a chilly rain is nightmare fuel.
  8. What is with the yellow jackets this year especially late this summer? I got swarmed with them today.
  9. Thunder and pouring here. Unless this lets up in about an hour, no way am I travelling.
  10. Supposed to head out to Oceanside for an NFL Week 1 party at a friends house but not so sure now. Rain picking up here.
  11. I generally just browse but I just wanted to say that... you sir, are a treasure to this forum and that your insight is greatly appreciated at least from this guy.
  12. This is boiling eggs on sidewalk weather. I'm all for summer weather but not for sauna weather.
  13. As long as it comes back for winter
  14. Another gorgeous weather weekend, lots of beach and pool time. We've been really spoiled this month, one of the best weather Augusts that I can remember.
  15. And most fell in about 15-20 minutes then the sun was out immediately after and humidity ratcheted up. Felt like a Florida shower.
  16. Got caught out in a deluge in Whitestone, didn't expect that. Sitting in my car waiting for it to pass
  17. Amazing stretch of weather. It almost feels fall-like the last few mornings. Dare I say....hoodie weather?
  18. The best August that I can remember. Beautiful weekends, lots of nice weekdays, just enough rain mixed in and a couple of great thunderstorms depending where you are. Seems like the next week will be more of the same, perfect for outdoor activities.
  19. Yep, same here in Whitestone. Some huge branches down as I just walked outside. Looks like Round 2 is nearing.
  20. Saw one at a parking lot near Yankee Stadium a few weeks ago then this past Saturday morning, again (oddly), in a parking lot at a nearby Mall in Whitestone. Never seen one before this year.
  21. The last 2 weeks for the most part have been stellar. The weekends have been....chefs' kiss. One of the nicest 2 weeks of summer weather in a long time.
  22. This might be the best 4 day mid summer stretch that I've ever experienced. Picture perfect weather for outside activities.
  23. Constant lighting, plenty of loud thunder and now torrential rain. One of the best storms in my area in a while. These pop up storms really deliver when they hit as opposed to lines.
  24. Agreed, I said the same earlier in the thread and got weenied. This "heatwave" was overblown. It was hot but not excessively hot perhaps due to this type of heat becoming the norm in recent years. There was a bit of a breeze that made the air feels less stagnant so that helped.
