This summer has been such a contrast from the past few years and it's awesome. Yesterday was like mid September and I'm already seeing isolated leaf change which may be from stress though our rainfall has been fairly sufficient.

Usually when you step outside this time of year it's disgusting but it's the exact opposite. Since this patterns been so persistent I don't see huge changes going forward.

What was supposed to be a strong late summer heat surge has been muted yet again.

Even with a strong ridge building in, and what otherwise would have been a pretty warm pattern they'll  be systems and cutoof undercutting the ridge.  We'll see how many warm days we can muster and if any heat reaches the area but looking no likely through Friday (8/22) now.  You just cant buy heat the last 6 weeks.

Agreed. We may go the year without an official heat wave in NYC, unless a highly anomalous pattern develops in September.

 

The last week to 10 days of August still looks to average warmer than normal due largely to increased humidity and higher nighttime lows. When we total the 3 meteorological summer months, it's going to come out very close to normal which is what both of us expected this year.

We'll see how warm we can get it thu (8/21) - sat (8/22) this week.  And also heights look to remain high into the east with troughing into the west into early September.  Perhaps its a labor day heat spell...

The 20c 850 line is still close on some GFS runs. So maybe a couple spells of 90 degrees plus? Or does it look like 80s at this point?

Why did you pick such an arbitrary cutoff such as 1984? Or is it that you just didn't have the data prior to that year?

Those stats were from the thread that I did a while back on 30 year summer temperature trends starting in 84.

 

In any event, the highs this summer at the major reporting stations are well below the 100+

of recent years.

 

2014 summer highs so far:

 

NYC.....91

LGA.....93

JFK......91

EWR....96

Looking at some long range models, it is a relief to say we struggle above 82 after Monday for the rest of the month. September looks like some very cool shots from Quebec, Canada and directed towards us. Atlantic Canada blocking may take hold in Sept 14 as well. Summer heat is definitely done for us (90's)!!!  Closing the book soon on one heck of a pleasant summer.  The -EPO looks go on forever, and should guarantee us a wicked cold winter as nothing seems to stop it.  The waters south of Alaska are very warm !!!!!  If we have a weak El Nino, we could lock in a full fledged blockbuster winter, like a top 5 or top 2 of all time.... I am extremely excited for high probability prospects for this with astounding teleconnectors as of late August on the global indexes and the quiet solar too....  I wonder if we have to suffer a hurricane strike or fringe next month as the Sep pattern is looking favorable for a strike if something is there to track near East coast. WAR ridge off the east coast and some maritime Canada and New Foundland blocking, with higher heights to our East and northeast could be concerning.

would be nice if you had some concrete evidence to back up your extreme predictions all the time - not even the most skilled MET would be able to predict a top 5 or top 2 of all time - even on DEC 1st................

i went out this morning and i saw lot's of yellow brown leaves son the ground..very unusual for this time of year for the leaves to start changing in nyc..

 

Likely stress as the color change is much more attributed to length of daylight than temps.   The strong cooldown is only 3 days and has peaked.
