    Whoa..my head would explode if that happened now lol. I can't fathom it. 53 in July is very impressive. As far as my memory goes, getting to low 60s within the UHI would be considered a cool spell during peak summer. How does a day with full sunshine in July stay below 70

    Damn..dew point is 8 at Central Park, 14% humidity. As dry as it gets here in May I'd imagine. I guess I'm wrong but wouldn't it be incredibly difficult to get that dry on a NE wind. Not as much moisture as a south wind sure but shouldn't a NE wind pick up at least some humidity off the Atlantic and Sound

    Philly is still slightly milder than NYC on avg but NYC just has more of the moderating effect of the Atlantic Ocean. Philly is over 50 miles from the coast. NYC has a pretty good growing season considering its latitude...UHI + coastal location. The flip side is getting robbed of some early season warm spells occurring almost everywhere else. We may not have May freezes but Philly can be sunny and 75 to 80 and we are cloudy and 55 for a week.

    It was an impressive storm. That wind was really howling all night too. The Major Deegan is/was closed with flooding, and of course flooding and closures in spots on the usual suspects, Bronx River Pkwy, Hutch, Cross County etc. I saw some city vehicles stalled in flooded parking lots at the E 180th St rail yard and Parks Dept hq there off the Bronx River. I wasn't awake to see but looks like some evidence of minor coastal flooding overnight on the Sound as well.

    87 at EWR wow. I didn't expect such a strong sea breeze off the Sound at LGA, parts of the Bx, NE Queens etc. Long Island, southern Qns & Bk I did as, it was forecasted anyway, but its an impressive Sound sea breeze, not in a good way. Glad I'm not there for it haha.

    In lower Manhattan now and it sure feels like 80. Home thermometer is 68, a little east of the Bx Zoo. Spring is the only time Central Park can regularly be a NYC hot spot..and probably parts of SI too.

    In the bx, rain turned into a hailstorm, pea sized and enough to coat the ground, now the sun's coming back out melting the coating away. Hail did take out a decent amount of cherry blossoms etc

    Yeah time to close the curtain on this. These dewpoints are brutal too..5 degrees or so, air that dry plus allergy season is a brutal assault on the sinus. Even temps in the 40s have alot more chill to it with humidity so low.

    Yday was 76, today overacheving with all this sun..sunny and 69..with a little humidity today

    28 and snow. Got a coating so far..more so than yday. What exactly is this, renegade lake effect snow band?

    Driving around Pelham Bay, Bx had a windy burst of very heavy rain and sleet, more like hail really. Now light rain and snow, temp rapidly falling, down to 40.

    ...actually may be trash fires set that spread

    Multiple brush fires in Central Park, looks like all in northern end of the Park

    Warm night..temps steadily rising since 8pm. From low 60s to 68 at 10:15 pm..matching the high temp from the afternoon

    Alot of ice here in the bx. Much more than the last time. Thick coating everywhere, a quarter inch ice on some surfaces, but some of that is sleet holding it together so dunno how you measure that. Some sagging trees along Pelham Pkwy. Right now freezing rain and sleet mix and 30.

    Feels great out, 69 here..dew point has started to plummet last 30 mins though

    Maybr because a snow squall is like the winter equivalent of a summer severe t-storm ?
  19. dWave
    Mostly cloudy..some breaks of sun and 61

    Is anyone getting acclumation on paved surfaces? If so how far from the city does it start to stick
  21. dWave
    Snow picked up alot compared to before sunrise..now around 2" on the trees and cars. Heavier snow not but still no acclumation at all on paved surfaces. Temp down to 31. Yday was 61.
  22. dWave
    Temp off to the races today. Already 51 under sunny skies. About a 10 degree jump in a hour. Today suppose to be a few degrees cooler than yday I think. We'll see how that holds up.
  23. dWave
    It's basically impossible to walk outside. Ice coating everywhere. Streets have a glossy sheen now too.
  24. dWave
    Noticeable difference here in the last hour. Trees are icy and sidewalks starting to ice over. I'm down to 29 in the bx. Based on NYC micronets, 28 at Lehman College, 29 by Parkchester, 29 at Queens College
  25. dWave
    Down to 30 with moderate freezing rain. Technically anyway. There is some ice shining on trees in the last 30 mins
