i was a line cook in a restaurant. it was so awful. 

 

Terrible place to be in big heat.  On July 3, 1966, when NYC hit 103, EWR 105, and LGA 107, I was short-order cooking at Curtiss-Wright's lake resort in NNJ.  It was so hot behind the counter that our normal practice of toasting burger/dog rolls under the gas griddle was a fail - they went straight to black.  There was a cheap coil thermometer on the side of the counter opening, well away from the cooking equipment, and the needle was spun far beyond the 120F end of the printed scale.  We didn't want to know how hot it was.

Yeah its not a bad rule...didn't quite do it today, which is why I'm sort of thinking we fall short of most records (that and the 850 temps but the two are not mutually exclusive). BOS may have enough though with the good wind today.

 

Me too - doesn't quite have that pattern of behavior/vibe about it.  But, the 'rule of thumb' things are not etched in stone.  

 

93 by 11 ...heh.   21C is 21C, but if the BL heights can get to that 17C at 800mb, that could take it over the top.  Interesting.

I went to the beach at Belmar that day....sand unwalkable. I was with my buddies and this lovely girl of around 19 or so stopped at our blanket....hot sand ftw!

Where is this reading from? This is how PWS's get a bad name. No QC what-so-ever.

It's about 1mi from NWSBOX

It's awesome to watch how brutally off it is.
