SACRUS Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Record highs for tue - thu.. the coming warmth will likely fall short of most records by several degrees. NYC: 10/1: 88 (1927) 10/2: 90 (1927) 10/3: 87 (1919) EWR; 10/1: 85 (1986) 10/2: 86 (2002) 10/3: 85 (1950) JFK: 10/1: 85 (1986) 10/2: 82 (2002) 10/3: 84 (2002) LGA: 10/1: 87 (1950) 10/2: 87 (2002) 10/3: 85 (2000) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weathergun Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I think we see some mid 80s on Wednesday. Models show 850mb temps 16C+, light west winds and fairly low dews. Record highs that day are also within reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pamela Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Upton predicting a high of 82 F on Wednesday at Central Park...around 10 degrees above normal. Of course, in the Texas-like climate of eastern New Jersey, a few spots will likely be 3 or 4 degrees hotter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACRUS Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 ECM going bonkers with ridging next week after the trough moves through. Its had this bias at times in the day 7 - 10 range the last few months. Builds heights 588 - 592dm the middle.end of next week over the east coast, will be interesting to track - i havent seen the ensembles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwcMan Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Interesting to see those record highs for 2002, considering that October ended up below avg,(correct me if I'm wrong)and how the winter ended up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if the month is going to be above normal then let's go all the way and completely torch with record highs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Well if the month is going to be above normal then let's go all the way and completely torch with record highs. Let's not. We don't need to ruin the fall foliage with 80s all month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Let's not. We don't need to ruin the fall foliage with 80s all month. That loss will be unfortunate as the foliage has started off wonderfully, but I fear it will either slow down significantly and/or the colors will be less than appealing. If we get those high mins especially, then part of our foliage will be in trouble. And the nice, enjoyable weather will get a lot more uncomfortable with mid 80s.

SnoSki14 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 The latest gfs certainly shows a prolonged warm to well above normal stretch. The cold front doesn't even drop us to normal, we stay above the entire time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Warm is fine but not 80s in October although I prefer cold weather so I wish we were below normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsentropicLift Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I agree. I know some people will argue that a warm fall will keep SST warmer than normal and cause coastal areas mixing problems come winter. I would like to see one piece of evidence that correlates above average fall temps leading to above average SST during the winter leading to above normal mixing problems at the coast.

IsentropicLift Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 We call that a hypothetical syllogism...I call it BS. It can be 75 degrees one day and snow the next. I've seen it happen here before. 70's here in February are not that uncommon. Usually when Long Island is in the rain on a coastal it means I'm getting buried due to a tucked in track. Further offshore tracks usualky keep the best deform banding to my east. One man's jackpot is another's demise. Does depend on the year though.

I would like to see one piece of evidence that correlates above average fall temps leading to above average SST during the winter leading to above normal mixing problems at the coast. I think it is more or less a given that the higher the ocean water temperature; the better chance of some warm air working onshore in a coastal storm and potentially changing snow to rain...Upton averages over 10 inches of snow in February despite it being the shortest and one of the driest months...December tends to be a good deal less snowy. But warm autumn or not, there will always be potential for mixing along the coast straight up through the Canadian Maritime provinces...though the colder it is, the quicker water temps will drop off; potentially decreasing the degree of warm air intrusions from off the water.

I think it's more track dependent than anything else for the immediate coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pamela Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 70's here in February are not that uncommon. The hottest February day on record at WSO Upton is 69.5 F...though I'm sure over Jersey...it might have tipped 70 F a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pamela Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The coast will always have mixing issues because the ocean temps will almost always be above freezing except during the coldest winters. I think it's more track dependent than anything else for the immediate coast. Well even in the coldest winters...save for maybe a few harbors, the water temps are *always* above freezing. However I do most certainly agree with you when you assert that the track of the storm outweighs almost all other considerations; such as last year's November snow or the one in November 1989.

Guest Pamela Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I think there was a big cyclone offshore during the 1990's....either in October or November...was unusually cold and was bringing snow to Upstate NY...the circulation was so powerful that warm air was brought in off the Atlantic so far that it made it all the way to Buffalo; changing their snow over to rain.

bluewave Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The persistent WAR pattern from around 4-15 through July is making a return after taking a two month break. The last few months the ridge was located over the Central and Eastern Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
