Thunderdude Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Today or yesterday was one of the hottest days in yesterday or one of the hottest day I have ever seen it combine with the high humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmagan Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I would think the heat index at the very least will still exceed 104 for 2+ hours especialkly if were starting at 90 degrees! So thats why I'm surprised they didnt just continue the heat warning. I'll take their word for it though I sometimes wonder if KPHI and KOKX are on different wavelengths.

SnowGoose69 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 The amazing thing is this heatwave and even the heat that is going on in the Plains is basically a result of pure buildup...we've seen these sort of temps before at 850mb and 700mb but never gotten this warm....the combination of relatively dry conditions as well as very warm ground temps over most of the central U.S. is whats ultimately adding 5-7 degrees to the temps we'd normall see in this setup...even KS and OK is seeing highs of 105 with 850 temps of 22C...that is unheard of...even adding 18 degrees to those 850s only gets you to around 99-100.

NJwinter23 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Well Upton is predicting a high of 104 in Newark with a maximum heat index of 108 for tomorrow. Yet the heat advisory is in effect with the wording "heat indexes up to 100" and "Heat advisory issued for heat indexes 100-104 for 2+ consecutive hours". What is the exact criteria for heat warnings? I'm assuming its heat indexes above 104 for a couple hours which I don't see being a problem. The heat index is 98 at 4am!

mike2010 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 9am: EWR: 92 LGA: 86 NYC: 85 JFK: 92 It'll be interesting to see if these little micro-climate heat island areas (EWR & JFK = both 92) will cause the areas around it (LGA / NYC) to catapult upwards in the next couple hours.

Mikehobbyst Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Does being out in 100 degree temperatures cause the body internal temperature to rise causing an induced fever >98.6? Isn't internal body core temps above 105 extremely dangerous for human system? How do people survive in 105 temps for more than 15 minutes?

Mikehobbyst Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It is hotsy totsy again, >90 at 9AM at SW Long Island. Probably 98-99 today with more clouds and 21 C at 850 level, as opposed to 24 C yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isotherm Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 88.6F after another 80.0F low here. I'm about 1.5 degrees cooler than yesterday at this time, so not by much. Should reach 90 by 10am which means a good shot at 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
