The LGA-NYC relationship was different this time for what we normally see on northerly flow CAA.

Most of the time it seems like LGA and NYC have the same low or LGA is warmer.

This time NYC made to 35 and LGA got down to 34. It's interesting considering LGA wind

crossed the warmer East River first. All the MOS output had LGA warmer than NYC.

The NWS also had LGA warmer in their low temperature forecasts.

00z Euro last night had a weak little miller B valid next Sunday that really takes off once well offshore. Even though surface temps look too warm, 850 temps look like a close call. Something to watch in an otherwise boring pattern.

 

The 00z GGEM has a much stronger, more well organized system as development occurs further south.

 

The GFS wants nothing to do with any of it.

The Euro continues the dry pattern through the next 10 days with only some showers on Thursday.

Low here last night was 34.  Gusty breeze off the sound kept temps above freezing.

 

I am a bit curious about the OKX statement including the Bronx in the area where the growing season has already ended.  Only small parts of the Bronx may have touched freezing last night.  On the other hand, here were LI low temps on 10/26:

 

Baiting Hollow - 26

Bridgehampton - 29

Farmingdale - 31

Islip - 32

Shirley - 31

Smithtown - 29

Upton - 30

Westhampton - 20

 

The freezing temps on 10/26 damaged, but did not kill sensitive plants in my backyard, so I can see the argument for that not having ended the growing season.  However, I doubt the Bronx saw nearly as much freezing temps last night as most of the island has seen.

I think low temps on the island will fall below the current forecast mins early on, then level out later.  This usually happens when the wind is shifting to the south rather than east, so it could be a little different tonight, but forecasts for similar nights are very timing sensitive.  A few hours of light winds and clear skies after sunset are all it takes to blow the temp forecast.  The high clouds over PA (and timing of when they get here) are part of the forecast problem,  Personally, I think we get down to at least freezing early tonight.

Had a low of 32.1 last night in SE Bergen County for my coldest night so far this season. The temp drop seemed to really slow down after midnight.

Hopefully this dry pattern flips on a dime just in time for winter like all of the recent mini-droughts that we've had. I'd rather take my chances on temps, than continue with this lack of precip since July.
