Monday to Sunday of next week looks above normal with temps of 80-90 degrees areawide.

Not sure what people are talking about.

 

All ensemble and op data supports it.

 

And the signal remains as we approach.

The GFS keeps the ridging at bay to our west.

 

New rule of thumb, hump the Euro when it shows what we want and toss it when it doesn't. Oh wait, some things never change.

I return to the board to see absolutely nothing has changed, as despite changing his username YanksFan declared that there is no way to get heat with a NW Wind and then proceeded to back off and say that "At least its not a SE Wind".

Welcome to spring folks.

Can you teach me how to read the models?

I see low 80's away from the coast, mostly SW of NYC on Tuesday, and that's it through hr 192 on the 06z GFS. Do you have a graphic that show's something different. My source is WxBell.

 

The backdoor cold front is pretty weak on the models and they've been inconsistent on it. The 6z GFS has highs in upper 70s or lower 80s for NYC SW for most of next week. The Euro keeps it away has more middle to upper 80s, next week.

It's coming my good buddy! Warlock is getting that cutoff ready!

I took the time to go panel by panel and the only hour showing 80's close to NYC is hour 156 or 18z Tuesday.

 

The 12z GFS might very well cave, but with the blocking signal in the models has been very consistent.

It'll be a close call-if the upper low NE of us is stronger, it could keep the heat at bay to the west. And we also have to watch for spokes on the upper low which would bring rain or clouds.

NYC looks to stay right on the boundary between a torch focused more towards the DC area and cooler marine influence over New England. Thanks to the ULL east of of us. I would expect continued waffling since the exact placement of the features will have a large affect on sensible weather.

6z GFS is the upper 70s and low 80s for NYC starting Sunday:

I typically would agree without thinking twice, but the pattern for keeping lower than normal heights in Eastern Canada and New England has not changed since late March. This is a death wish for extending the periphery of the heat ridges to our area, which typically build over the Central US this time of year and then eventually try to extend northeastward. When the lower than normal heights over Eastern Canada, New England and the Northwest Atlantic are persistent like this, it often takes until late Spring or early Summer until we can start extending ridges into this area.

 

The Euro seems to be on an island of its own right now so we will have to see if it ends up being correct. But you can see even on the GFS, that the below normal heights to our north and east keep the ridge at bay and likely would introduce yet another back door front to the northeast of our area.

Yeah, I think the OP Euro is overdone here with the warming on the 0z run. The strength of the block to our northeast

in recent days argues for more backdoor potential as an upper low looks to get stuck underneath.

Newark could end up in the minority of recent Late Mays and fail to reach 90 degrees.

 

 

High during last 7 days of May at Newark:

5-25-09....84

5-27-08....87

5-31-07....94

5-29-06....94

5-27-05....84

We still managed to average above normal despite the blocky pattern so far this month, but perhaps a lot of people including myself got ahead of ourselves. There are plenty of instances where strong heat builds in the middle of the country only to get crushed before it gets here or comes here with far less intensity. I'd like to see what the Euro shows in this instance however. 

 

Of course we don't need intense heat for things to become unbearable here because we almost always trade off the record heat for high dews and humidity and 85-90F with 70F+ dews becomes just as unbearable as 95-100+ with far lower dews.

It might be hard to even reach 80 if the GFS is more right. The trough NE of us always makes one pause before forecasting too much warmth NE of Balt/DC.

GFS nightmare? I prefer cooler weather than intense sweltering weather any day. I hate to pay high electrical bills.

Well, it's a nightmare to me. I am sick of sub-70 days at this point. If we get a mini-April next week I'm going to scream.
