Sundog Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 850 temps are not as high as originally progged, that's one thing Did no one recognize this until now? Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forkyfork Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 It looks like at some point in the late 90's LGA started to overtake the park. Queens has looked the same for 40+ years so that can't be affecting LGA. central park went from regularly having more 90 degree days than lga to regularly having fewer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forkyfork Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 850 temps at 12z were pretty close to what the 00z nam showed for the same time last night. let's give it a few hours before declaring bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCSuburbs Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 2010 was an embarrassing display by the central park ASOS. You would have thought looking at the # of 90 degree days there that it was just another regular summer when in reality it was hot as balls. The TV news were mostly relying on the Central Park number of 90+ degree days to represent the summer. I saw local mets talking about a "possible 35th 90+ degree day" or something around that - I was already approaching 50 by that time and I'm really not that far from the park.

TheTrials Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 850 temps at 12z were pretty close to what the 00z nam showed for the same time last night. let's give it a few hours before declaring bust but not as high as was modeled a few days ago, i doubt the 20-22c 850 temps verify. I believe the euro has 21c IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I'm hearing about a power outage now in Astoria Queens. Temps around 90 and we have power outages? Either our grid is garbage or the media has hyped the heat so much people are acting like it's 110. Probably a combination of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 maybe it was when central park went AOS in 1996?... Could be. But if that's the case then there is a calibration issue. Whether the issue was the manual readings or the ASOS I don't know. Could be something entirely else too. It's just strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Newark and JFK were up to 93 at 11am...Central Park at 88. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Newark and JFK were up to 93 at 11am...Central Park at 88. To be fair LGA is at 89 at 11am so it makes the park's number a little less fantastic. Though the airport is reporting a northwest wind at 14mph so the East River could have something to do with LGA's slightly cooler reading. The instrumentation is so close to the water that you can throw a rock from it and you'll hit water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ag3 Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 Newark and JFK were up to 93 at 11am...Central Park at 88. LGA was 89. So NYC is not off yet. When you see NYC standing alone, and very different then LGA, then its when you know there is an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 interesting variability... there were actually years where central park beat newark or they were tied. that hasn't happened since 1980. and look at 2006 and 2007, lol It seems like from around the late 90's on LGA really pulled ahead of Central Park. I guess that's when the foliage grew tall enough to make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormlover74 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 EWR and JFK are both at 93 and most readings are in the low 90s. Yesterday's highs were achieved fairly early then leveled off so we have plenty of time to get to 98-100. I do think EWR hits 100 today. 850 temps at 12z were pretty close to what the 00z nam showed for the same time last night. let's give it a few hours before declaring bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 JFK is at 95 degrees and is 4 degrees off the June record of 99 degrees. With a few more hours before the sea breeze develops, they may get close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isotherm Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Wunderground stations are 96-97 around Newark, would expect them to tick up 2-3 degrees at the next observation. Actually a bit surprised they're not hotter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv88 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 looking at long island, south shore is much hotter...long beach, freeport, howard beach, valley stream 96-97, north shore 92-93, i think the north/nw wind off the sound has something to do with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
