Alpha5 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I dont get peoples obsession with heat. I'll take 70-80 with low humidity and thats about it. 90+ is just too much, I hate that warm sweaty feeling and you cant do anything to escape it. I like heat when its comforting, not unbearable with high humidity and high temps. My limit is 85-90 with low humidity 75-80 with high humidity anything more is torture.

It's even too hot for the girls in bikinis at that point. So it's a lose - lose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-X Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Depends how old they are, I'm not too big on seeing grandma in a thong ewwww lol. Good thing it's too early for dinner! I know that where you are, it never really gets as hot as we do out further west on the Island. So, if you dont like heat, it's good to be out on the east end, where it's usually in the 80s while its 95-100 back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, what sucks is Riverhead is like the "hot spot" during the summer out here. We'll hit 100 here while south shore areas are cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you near the co-op where they measure snow? I think its called Riverhead Research Farm. I've been wondering what kind of research one does on a farm lol.

If I ever see the place I'll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pamela Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 summer is dreadfully long and painfully humid here as it stands. I don't really think summer in this area is "dreadfully long"...it is about what it should be, given the latitude. Not all summers were like the last one. Go to the SE coast of the U.S....now those are long summers. I mean, if someone was to say to me "who has a cooler summer than Long Island east of the Mississippi River?"...I'd say, "Most of New England and upstate NY, most of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota...and the high areas in the Appalachians...and that's basically it...every one else east of the River is probably hotter.

ag3 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Nobody cares that there is a storm threat on Sunday. Instead we are discussing heat in summer in a thread titled feb.27-feb.28 storm threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care as I am at 58.2" of snow for the season and need 1.8" for 5 feet...but there was a comment in the thread with which I took issue and offered a response....the Sunday event wil likely not be a compelling one...maybe 1 to 3 inches...thus you have to expect for a thread "dedicated" to it go off on tangents every once in a while...

I'm thrilled with any snow. This is a storm thread for this specific threat. It's annoying that only the American models are showing real QPF of over .25". While all the rest of the globals have next to no precip. We'll know by 12z tomorrow which way this is leaning. Hoping the American models have a clue. Also, Feb. 27th is my bday! Would love to add even 1" on that day. Last year I got the best present ever with the massive snowicane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy early B-day....Just that no one is sure yet about this one. GFS + NAM would like to bring a lil something around. SREFS are mostly north of the area, GFS ensembles are also mostly north of the OP so we'll see. I haven't really seen what the EURO says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Well, We just lost 2 of the American models. Srefs and NAM are way north and match euro and the other globals. Now GFS is on it's own for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think it's a 1-3" event for most, especially those north of the City, where climo is in their favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 12Z NAM still shows snow event coming in from 42-54 hours....best snow based on 850 temps would still be just north of NYC but this one has potential, especially given the hinting of the surface low developing as the wave nears the coast...this is fairly similar to 1/26/94 although the high is not as strong and hence the overrunning is not quite to that level.

Look for this to continue to slip south on the gfs and european guidance. NYC north looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ag3 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 12z NAM soundings show LGA frozen at all levels when precip begins at hour 42. At hour 48, some levels jump above freezing but 98% of the precip is done by then. Verbatim, NAM is a 2"-4" snowstorm for LGA and NYC north.

Guest Pamela Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 SUNY MM5 12z indicates temperatures are at best borderline for NYC and L.I. for Sunday morning event, though it is still a little outside its highly accurate (within 36 hrs) range.
