Or it can be colder and snowier, we had several instances of this during the 1980s. Vet Day 1987 is an example of a storm when it snowed in DC and rained in NYC. This used to be much more common back then. There was a storm like this in December 1989 a very cold month, when DC got snow and NYC flipped to rain right at the onset of the storm. A huge busted forecast of 6-8 inches of snow ended up being rain and thunder here.

I thought it was weird that JFK hit 90 in October 2007 but Central Park was nowhere close. I think NYC was 87 on the date that JFK hit 90. JFK's latest 90 degree high on record.
-
I don't believe in luck, DC is very far inland. NYC being right near the water has a much less chance of an October snowstorm than DC does.

Halloween is the classic time for our first noreaster and they usually are of the hybrid type.
-
But not in July unfortunately. Did it make the top 3 at Newark? 1993 and 1949 are still untouched.
-
October blocking has a very strong correlation to blocking during the winter.

This reminds me of the April 2007 tax day noreaster

Bro this wouldn't even be a snowstorm in the 1860s let alone the 1960s. I hope you realize that in its entire snowfall history NYC never even received a single inch of snow in October until Snowtober 2011 lol. That winter was forgettable but October's snow storm was a one in thousand year event. It may have been the single most unlikely event of any type to occur in our area.

Yes but that is usually where extreme temperatures usually happen. Heat is usually hotter there and cold is usually colder too. This is like in January when it's -40 to -50 in MN but in the 20s in NYC. Both heat and cold are usually much more extreme in landlocked areas.
-
I wish it was like this in the summer. This is ideal weather.
-
But they were quite frequent during the 1980s I think 1994 was the last time we had an airmass like that?
-
what happened in october 2007 lol I thought October 2019 was much more shocking when it was 95-96 with a HI of 100, that felt like July lol
-
humidity is awful and so are the flooding rains there. cold is good when it snows, it's not needed in October
-
wow JFK temperatures are really off, we've been at least in the low 80s both days of the weekend.
-
1940s-1950s were extremely hot
-
we should have had more 100 degree temperatures during the summer than the 2 we got in June. July should have hit 100+ a few times here too.
-
we don't have sustained temperatures above 85 degrees. it's just a few days and not even 85, more like 80
-
all of these things have happened before..... look maybe people are *normalizing* it because they like warmer weather? that's just how it is. many of us like cold weather during the snow season, but not at other times of the year
-
Octobers have improved since the 1980s and even the 1990s. I used to dread October back then because it was too cold to not run the heat. And as a teenager my parents had a thing about not turning on the heat in October so I would turn on the stove instead lol. Pushing that transition back to November is great on the wallet.
-
it is, I didn't turn on the a/c at all, this is ideal weather
-
60s are way too cold
-
don't need to lol cold air is a drain on the wallet in October, it should only get cold when it's supposed to snow, otherwise it's 100 percent useless it's not even humid, this weather is great
-
it's been in the 80s here both days of the weekend
-
this is so much better than cold weather cold weather should only happen when it snows
-
low humidity is what makes late season heat different, it's pretty nice, I didn't turn on my a/c at all today
