    EWR has only hit 100 or more on two days in Sep 9/3, 9/4 (1954, 1993) Came close in with either 99 or 98 in 18,15, 10, 83 most recently.

    We'll see if the ridge tends more east once past the 16/17th as Jun/Jul and a warmer / humid progression evolves. Next week looks marvelous with a imuch needed dry out if it evolves as forecasted.
  3. SACRUS
    Looks heat free for the next 10 days or more. Perhaps a similar progression from early periods in Jun and Jul before western heat pushes east north first, as we close the last 7 - 10 days of Aug. Or it could see a day or two of low 90s and if the wetter pattern resumes with any future tropical influences.

    Western track has kept the focus of the remnants of Debby west into PA, saving additional flooding Fri into sat. Mos of that additional 1 - 1.75 comes later today and Thu (tomorrow AM)

    73/71 cloudy, 4.10 in the bucket. Cloudy onshore SSE flow keeping it in the 70s with scattered showers. Last time the temp didn't reach 80 was Jun 28th for many. Thu the same as Debby slowly drifts north. Fri Debby/remnants are centered into VA and heading NNE through C/E PA keeping the brunt of additional rains focused into PA. Sat will dry out and clear up, warming back near normal. Sun (8/11) begins a stretch of very nice , drier, near normal allowing the area to dry out. Looking mainly dry and sunny. Heat capped to the west through mid month. Warming and next potential heat after 8/17 and beyond.

    Atlantic ridge proving stronger than forecast and Debby pumping heights slowed the fronts progression.

    Contrast 18,19,20 to the past 3 years for eastern areas and LGA specifically with heat. Believe LGA had more 90 degree days or equaled EWR those 3 then a large disparity with prevailing onshore flow
  23. SACRUS
    81 / 76 some high clouds but otherwise partly sunny. Warm today ahead of the deluge, upper 80s and some warmer spots could sneak in a 90. Later today front comes south and the boundary will get hung up as Debby fuels a southerly flow of moisture into the area with heavy long down pours. Tue - Thu 2 - 5 inches of rain, more in some spots. Fri - Sat Debby comes north before finally exiting Sun with additional rain, currently looking to focus west of the area. Beyond there trough into the northeast through mid month before we see warmer air return after mid month. Could see seasonal trend with ridge along the coast. trough into the MW/GL and ridge west. Overall humid/wet next 5 days with records rains fall possible. 8/6 - 8/11 : Humid, rain, Debby - floods 3 - 6 inches of rain or more 8/12 - 8/15 : Near normal - drier Beyond there : gradual warm up / more humid heat west expands east later in the period.
