PHL 98.5

ABE 95.5

TTN 97.5

EWR 99.5

ACY 96.5

ILG 97.5

MPO 88.5

For your viewing pleasure, the NAM MOS: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mos/getmet.pl?sta=KILG&sta=KACY&sta=KEWR&sta=KTTN&sta=KABE&sta=KPHL&sta=KMPO

Interesting that the farther north you get (i.e. ABE and MPO) the GFS is actually warmer than the NAM.

Not going to do the over/under stuff as I'm probabluy not qualified other than to say that over the past few years is seemed as if the forecasts have many times underperformed during true heatwaves. Anyway, for here, these our our locals.

Wunderground Local:

Saturday Partly cloudy with a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain in the afternoon. High of 100F. Winds from the West at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%

NWS:

Saturday A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly sunny, with a high near 96. West wind 5 to 9 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

Good numbers, well not really but you know what I mean by not really.

So how long is this heatwave been going on for, for Philly? Frankly I lost track. All I know that when I was down at Ocean City MD the past 2 weeks. It has been the warmest in the ocean that I've felt in many years, and usually its that warm around late August.

90 or higher started at PHL on June 28th.

June

28th-92

29th-98

30th-94

July

1st-97

2nd-91

3rd-94

4th-96

What are the odds that the whole summer becomes a heatwave. :axe: Joking aside, I can't wait for hurricane season.

This weekend is probably it for 90's for at least a few days. I don't think we get another prolonged heat event (might be a heat wave or two through end of year but those would be 3 day type events).

99 @ MPO? You're all in on this one...

the modern record at MPO is 95 so yes 99 is most likely a pipe dream, the all time record highs back in 1911 raise some eyebrows - they are 3-4 degrees warmer than the highs in Philly on those dates & additionally the 95 at MPO on 7/31/1911 is 8 degrees warmer than Philly that date???

Some of the old thermometers were a bit suspect...that 111 in Phoenixville from 1936 has always been one that I felt was off by at least a few.
