IntenseBlizzard2014 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 The WAR starts building back west around D10 after we get a break around D5-6. Geopotential32at32500hPa_North32America_144.gif Geopotential32at32500hPa_North32America_240.gif It looks like it builds in further south though. That'll spare us from the core of the heat.

bluewave Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 It looks like it builds in further south though. That'll spare us from the core of the heat. Probably just days of upper 80's to low 90's when we warm up again for the last few days of July instead of the big heat of this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWCCraig Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 All buoys just south of LI are above 80 degrees. Goes to show how far offshore the warmth got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WE GOT HIM Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 All buoys just south of LI are above 80 degrees. Goes to show how far offshore the warmth got. Yea with SST ranging from 76-79 Pretty impressive (should help our storm chances this weekend) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle W Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I just got back from Florida this afternoon...You can't say I brought the heat with me because it was cooler down there...I saw some big time thunder storms when I was there...NYC could end up with another top ten hottest July if this keeps up...

Isotherm Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Day 2 of 94F here. Still waiting on the 95+ extreme heat, but I think that should occur Thurs/Fri. Then we should get a taste of September w/ the strong frontal passage this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive run for LGA where the July mean is 77.4. We have gone higher than the DCA July mean of 79.8 degrees 6 out of the last 8 years. http://www.erh.noaa.gov/lwx/climate/dca/Dcajul.txt 2013....81.5...so far 2012....80.5 2011....80.4 2010....82.8 2008....80.0 2006....80.7 other 80 degree Julys 1999...81.9 1994...80.6 1993...80.8 1966...80.8 1955...81.3 1952...80.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 This definitely wasn't an example of a day where Long Beach was a lot cooler than Manhattan in the late afternoon. It was a torch through and through today. It literally felt like an oven outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Friday looks like the hottest feeling day of the heat wave so far with heat index values of 105 or greater possible with dewpoints above 70 and highs in the mid to upper 90's. http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/html/heatindex.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the shorelines won't be as hot, the humidity will make up for it. And the city/NE NJ will be a sauna. The weekend can't come soon enough.

Last night's 0z euro was not as impressive as previous runs for the "cool down". The core of the "colder" air remained north of our area. Hopefully, it was just a blip run and it starts showing it again in future runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Long Beach made it to 97 on the hot offshore flow yesterday. Just like Gilgo, Long Beach can rival or beat JFK by a degree on hot north wind. I can't wait until the first stretch of new boardwalk opens in the coming weeks. I got down on Monday, but they still had more work to do from LB to Laurelton. I went back to my old place and I found out that the the water stopped inches from getting above the top of the foundation and the first floor. The saltwater got high enough on the side of the house to take out the ac unit which was on ground level. My neighbor across the street pretty much lost everything as he had a step down first floor without an elevated foundation block. http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KNYGILGO1&month=7&day=16&year=2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADKweather27 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 How did dewpoints go up when the winds are still out of the North? more of a function of the mixing depth than wind direction, of course that will change by this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today there should be more of an onshore component, so the high will likely come early. As for the boardwalk, two blocks of it are open I believe, from Long Beach Rd. to Edwards. It's good to see the city finally start coming back from Sandy's devastation, but there's still a long ways to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, some of my friends recently got back in their houses after a long stint at the Red Roof Inn. A few people that I know had to walk away since their places were totaled and FEMA didn't offer them enough for repairs. But it was nice to see the new McDonald's finally repaired on my way into town. Had another great lunch at Gino's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 90 at 10am (2 degrees hotter than yesterday already) Already 91 at JFK. Hopefully the south wind kicks in soon or else it's off to the races for them again. Not often you get an official heat wave on the immediate coast.

We're the last hospital affected by Sandy still to be closed, hopefully this is rectified soon. Lots of houses being demolished now, which I guess is a good thing since money is finally being delivered to do such things and rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthlight Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 12z 4km NAM has sea-breeze pushing island over NYC and LI between 1-4pm: These graphics are incredibly useful. I've noticed sometimes the 4km NAM can be a little aggressive with the seabreeze near the immediate coast. But recently I was in OC MD and it was spot on. Predicted a deck of thick low clouds just offshore from 12-3pm pushing inland by 4, and it was correct. That was really cool, to see the low cloud deck racing from S to N just a few hundred feet offshore as a result of strong S winds. Have never seen that on the NJ Coast.
