Add another great weekend to the overall (majority) streak going back to Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor day etc..
Today looks great! Made it down to 46 last night and likely make a run at the low 70s here.
I recall that and some readings (in Staten Island at the tme) in 1993. Will needs to check but thought it was later in the month too, making it really impressive before the change locked in.
Edit - saw you replied. Was 79 here as well that warm Nov 15th day in 1993. 80 at LGA/EWR
1950 saw the month (nov) start off hot 85/84 in Newark.
The next period to watch for strong warmth to record highs (in the extreme) would be starting net weekend 10/20 - 10/23 period. Pending on how things progress we could be looking 75 - 80 range, perhaps above. We'll have to watch the center and positioning of the ridge and with clouds and any S / SE flow developing to limit the potential.
That timeframe to watch for any shot at upper 70s to low 80s would be Oct 20th / 21s. It'll be interesting to track as guidance is suggesting heights build and 850s peak in the 10-15c range. Get enough sunshine and its very doable.
0.09 rain yesterday. Another week of of warmth and temps should over perform (1 or r 90s) but again brunt and core of the late season heat a bit to our west and south.
Oct 5 - 7 look to feature a sharp contrast to the prior weeks warmth especially in New England, then followed by more of a back and forth progression to some warm days and steady stream of cold front.s
ECM surges 850 temps to 18C-20C Oct 2-3-4 (peak of the heat). With mostly sunny conditions, even in early Oct, temps should get to mid-upper 90s in the warmer spots. EWR 93 Sunday with 850 temps 16c.
Wait till wed/thu and see the point and clicks. 90s look very possible Sat-Sun and again Tue-wed next week Mon warmer spots. Cool-down around oct 5 may be temp with more warmth behind (not as warm-hot). Both this past Sat and Sun over perforemd. Even the park got to 89 yesterday 3-4 above guidance.
ECM surges 850’s to 16-19c next weekend and again by Tuesday oct 2nd. We’ll need to see if it is blunted west and south towards the DC area again as well as any tropical impacts on the flow. As bluewave noted, ridging looks glued to and along the east coast overall into October.
