I'm curious...what is this second batch of fog and rain? Wasn't it suppose to be clear behind the line of storms earlier than am. Wasnt that associated with a cold front?

Wow t storms woke me the hell up. Some window shaking thunder

Holding in upper 50s low 60s along the south shore areas of the city. 62 at my station in Sheepshead Bay.

66 here with hazy sunshine. Only 59 at LGA and 71 at the Park.(I suspect LGA has recovered since the last reading though) This time of yr is the Park's time to shine before LGA becomes the citys warm spot in the summer.

Clear spot at the park...

Central Park: 64, visibility 7 miles

LGA: 58, visibility 0.0

JFK: 55, visibility 0.1 miles

Dtwn Heliport (wall st) 59, visibility 0.3 miles

Newark: 60 visibility 0.2 miles

Wasn’t expecting to wake up to clear blue skies here in the uws, beautiful morning.

Its very dense fog here in the bx. Visibility is basically zero. I cant see the houses across the street standing at ground level. 59 degrees

A near perfect day imo after the clouds gave way. Got up to 77. 71 now.

76, dew 60

68 at central park now.

LGA jump to 66..south wind now..front pushing through

Yeah felt pretty warm here in lower Manhattan. Got more breaks of sun than anticipated. Had lunch by South St Seaport, no shade over there , took me by surprise how warm it felt. Wall st Heliport showing 65. Bx thermometer shows 60 though with that ENE wind. 55 at LGA.

Wind shifted to S/SE and temp jumped to 51

Get out of our chilly corner of the US and its a nice warm day.

We havent had it bad at all though, tomorrow it'll be sunny and seasonable temps. It could easily lock in for days and days of dreary foggy weather this time of year. Im fine with marine air when it doesnt linger endlessly.

Fog and drizzle 44, fog fades away headed towards harlem with even a little brightening. Not that bad once you get out the fog.

72* still in Coney Island,  9:20pm

Watched people walking over the BB in just T-shirts, sometimes moving faster than my car could, on the way home!

Still dropping in the bx..down to 48. Didnt think it would get this cold this fast.

Cold front literally splitting queens right now lol. Pretty cool to see

Yeah it is..55 at the Bx Zoo and 74 on the UWS.

My least fav weather event. These ENE winds in spring are the few times I can be 15 degrees cooler than Central Park, and cooler than the south shore. I dunno if I could live on LI and deal with strong sea breezes all the time lol.

58 here after a high of 78. Still mid 70s most of Manhattan it looks like. 

Back door rolling in. Got chilly real fast in co op city, Bx. Lost about 15 degrees in 40 mins or so per car thermometer. Gusty breeze off the Sound. A couple miles west its slightly warmer but still noticeably cooler. 

Clouds increasing again, temp leveled off at 77

Hazy sun, 76

Some filtered sun and 70, dewpoint 60.

In the wake of yesterday’s sleet and cold rain, today saw the sun return and temperatures soar to 67° in New York City. Some scenes from the New York Botanical Garden are below:

 

 

Yeah I notice many of cherry blossom and Magnolia trees around me are peak bloom now.  Last yr alot of them never really got going.

Sunny 66, and not much wind at all so far.

No 100's  Alright? High 80's is ok. Riding a bike kinda sux when it's really hot.

You can build up a tolerance for it, if you drink lots of water etc. The humidity is a killer though. I've done rides in the low 90s with relatively low humidity. If you're not trying to race up hills its not so bad. Last summer I rode very little cuz it was always extremely humid. 75+ dewpoints seemed almost daily at one point. Even temps in the low 80s wit that humidity it was hard to do any activity beyond stand still.

Partly to mostly sunny, 65 with a gusty south wind at times.  Beautiful day. I see lots of 50s not to far off in BK, Queens etc, hopefully it doesn't progress any further...

Yeah, that’s why the NYC first 80 of spring is usually a few weeks ahead of ISP. Years like 2010 are the exception rather than the rule.

That chart reminded me of an article I read somewhere a few yrs ago about avg onset of real warmth in the spring. It found one of the most reliable weather events is 80s in mid April. Things like first/last freeze have more variability, but 80 by mid April is pretty reliable.  Of course there is often more cool dreary weather to follow in these parts. 

Its bone dry today. Dew point is -1 here.
