Advection of slightly cooler air? The fact that we're more than three hours removed from the peak heating capability of the sun? Do you think as long as the sun is out it should just keep on getting hotter and hotter? Does it work that way every day making today an exception?

It worked yesterday....hit 103 at what...3:50pm ?

when do we get the official word if 108 sticks ? (I already doubt it will)

This must mean that Mt Zucker got to at least 70

lol.. that sounds about right John. It's 64 degrees on top of Mount Washington right now. Using the official mount zucker temperature conversion formula, that would pretty much put him in the ball park of about 70 or so.

The weather observed at MOUNT WASHINGTON, NH (KMWN) at 02:57 PM EDT was:

The skies were mostly cloudy.

Temperature: 64F ( 18C) Dewpoint: 59F ( 15C) Relative Humidity: 83%

Winds from the W (280 degs) at 47 mph.

When we had that super snowy Dec-Jan period with so many days of continuous snowcover did you ever think we would be talking about approaching all time record highs six months later?

Well other than the NWS RER I don't think we'll hear much more about it. I guess you could check the official climate record in 3 months when it has been finalized by NCDC - that's about as official as it gets I suppose.

So they didnt get that thunderstorm or did they hit 105 before the storm?

That's the 4PM reading. My parents are 7 degrees cooler... they're closer to the storm so that might explain it. Til those storms developed they were running very close.

Unisys map shows 24c 850, right over NYC.

here's what SPC has for their map.. a bit hard to read, but basically in that 23-24C ballpark... The corresponding surface temps do make sense with these 850 temps.. 24C mixed down dry adiabitically to the surface puts you pretty much right at 100... tack on a couple of degrees for a good synoptic west - northwesterly flow which adds some downslope and there you go... and for Newark.. tack on an additional, extra 5 degrees just for being Newark.

He wants the anomalies to rise more and more into the positive.

NYC and LGA are around +3 for the month right now. Newark and JFK are +4 to +5.

It is interesting to see lows like that here as it is quite uncommon but there is really nothing enjoyable about that unless you have a romantic night swim thing planned lol (or perhaps he wants a monthly weather prediction to come to fruition, lol)
