dbc Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Maybe not for Newark though. It sucks just to be a spectator though. This is like getting 20" of snow and then changing over to sleet while watching Newark pile on more snow and approach 30" 110 degrees would be like 30 inches of snow lol. Actually the furthest thing I could think of from 30 inches of snow is 110 degrees lol, j/k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike2010 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Can u stop already with these crazy conspiracies!! No conspiracy. They won't allow one person on their show that believes in global warming. Or if they do, they'll tear em up. I'm just saying...if Newark's reading gets nerfed today. It's something to think about.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Actually the furthest thing I could think of from 30 inches of snow is 110 degrees lol, j/k. lol Ive been doing an analogy comparison with 90 degrees to 10 inches of snow, 100 degrees to 20 inches of snow and 110 degrees to 30 inches of snow and falling just short of one of those limits gives me a similar amount of disappointment (conversely, reaching them gives me a similar amount of excitement.)

A-L-E-X Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Jmister-- nice graphics! Are those temps actual readings to the nearest tenth of a degree or are they the result of converting from Celsius? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 His crops are all dead by now, he will be sad when he comes back. haha he was in Montana last summer; this year he did the opposite thing and actually went to a place that's even hotter than us! I can't wait to see the Yankee game tonight and the one tomorrow-- are they in for a shock after playing in climate controlled Tampa for four days and Toronto before that lol.

chazman Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I was 17 in July 1977. Was a crazy summer to begin with...NYC was a different place. The heat was nuts, then you had the blackout and riots. And Son of Sam. Remember 1993 as was a receiving manager in a Dept Store, and had so many 90+ days. The guys on the loading dock were dying..it seemed to last for almost a month. Ooops..meant to say 1993..not 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmister Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Jmister-- nice graphics! Are those temps actual readings to the nearest tenth of a degree or are they the result of converting from Celsius? Thanks! I think they come from a celsius conversion, but then again some NWS readings are to the tenth of a degree C. The program is really cool and useful. You can do radar overlays and customize everything. I highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol.. yeah the minimum wage worker taking the observations who really just can't wait for Miller Time is going to go back and fix an observation because Fox News doesn't let guests on their show that don't believe in global warming. I gotta say that's pretty out there. By the way NCDC gets to decide on official climatology, not the FAA or the NWS, and they adjust official climate records more often than you realize.

I think you are thinking of 2002 not 2003. 27 90 degree days in 2002 from June-August. Only 7 in the same monthly stretch in 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The program is really cool and useful. You can do radar overlays and customize everything. I highly recommend it. The tenths are the result of the double conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius and back again. Notice how the tenths are rarely in half degree increments like .3, .4, .5, .6? The major airports use ASOS (some airports use AWOS which in theory can do whatever they like with regard to rounding) which only measures to the nearest whole degrees Fahrenheit, but obviously they have to convert to whole degrees Celsius for international distribution. The tenths of Celsius remark you see in the metars is so Americans can get back to the original whole degrees Fahrenheit temperature without introducing rounding errors.

tornadojay Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Do you feel worse then when you get subsidence from earthlights 5+ inch an hour snow bands? lol... it's close.. I've gotten subsidence somehow or another from practically every major winter storm that has hit me. That is how I get the great distinction of being in the Rockland County snow hole.

A-L-E-X Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I dont know if some semblance of a sea breeze capped off the heat-- but we've been hovering between 100-101 for like the past hour. It was 104.9 here around 2:20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
