Isotherm Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 the high was 72 at midnight otherwise it would be 60's for the high...record low max for this date is 70... Have we had anything like this before? 100 degree high in NYC then near record low max during the same week. That has to be unprecedented. Showers blossoming in CNJ; looks like a rainy afternoon. Winds also getting a bit gusty out of the NE, akin to an autumn nor'easter. Switch of seasons in a matter of 1 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Amazing that it's 65 degrees approaching noon. Love this. That fact that we were in the low 100s just two days ago makes this even more spectacular. We have trouble getting the lows to drop to where we are now this summer.

SACRUS Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 From Savannah to Seattle. I can see tomorrow potentially taking till the afternoon to clear as the cloud deck extends back into IL. We've had an incredible July so far - so 2 days of this dreary weather is more tolerable. This reminds me of 2009, 2003 tyoe summer weather. Back to 90 by Mon/Tue for the boys if summer so this is likley a speed bump to another month +3 to +4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 We had a high of 105 and then 79 two days later in 2001, but seeing 60s in the middle of the day after being over 100 48 hours earlier? Can't find anything like that recently. Have we had anything like this before? 100 degree high in NYC then near record low max during the same week. That has to be unprecedented.

Stormlover74 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Should we really trust a model that showed nearly an inch of rain falling in a 6 hour period this afternoon?

NYCSuburbs Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Looks like a bust at least in this area, especially with the NAM. It's not too surprising since the models didn't have a solid handle on this storm from the start leaving a bust potential, but I was hoping for at least something decent today to really ease the dry conditions. My 0.2" total so far isn't impressive yet it's more than the last two days combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 0.2" total so far isn't impressive yet it's more than the last two days combined. NAM is the only model that finally backed off the heavy rain, starting last night at 0z and then especially at 6z and 12z today. Latest Euro, 0z had 1.50" of rain. Today's 12z GFS, was still showing a decent amount also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Moderate batch of rain about to overspread much of NE NJ. Its crawling so it could rain for a bit once it finally does reach a particular area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 It looks like we have a shot at more localized rains in any convection Monday and Tuesday. We are doing better in the rainfall department than much of the country right now. JFK is almost normal on the year so far compared to the higher deficits at other local stations. SINCE JAN 1 21.99 23.65 -1.66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest Euro, 0z had 1.50" of rain. Today's 12z GFS, was still showing a decent amount also. Just saw the 0z ECM, amazing how much it was off only within the 6-12 hour range. Interesting how the NAM was the only model to back away as initially it also exaggerated rain totals the most, showing a large area of 3+ inches. Its 0z run yesterday showed the northern cutoff not far to the north of the NJ/NY border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Yeah its really amazing how in this part of the country, even really dry weather rarely lasts for very long and usually we make up for it in the end. Was just in KC last weekend and they are running 1/3 of normal since April 1st. Everything is brown and dried out and temps were 98-100 everyday. Now they are going into a 5 day stretch with temps in the 105-108 range again. Just unreal. It looks like we have a shot at more localized rains in any convection Monday and Tuesday.
