Thru 8/27

 

 

BOS : +2.1

BDL: +1.9

ALB: +3.0

 

NYC: +3.6

EWR: +2.7

LGA: +2.6

JFK: +3.6

TTN: +1.5

PHL:  +2.2

 

 

Incredible longitudinal and urban/suburban gradient in temperature departures this month. Part of the difference is due to cool air anomalies weakening upon reaching the longitude of NJ, and the other reason is that the cities cannot effectively radiate in low dew point airmassess.

 

The past few days have brought my August departure down to +0.6, in line with Hightstown COOP at +0.6 as well. My JJA departure is +0.3, very close to normal. The final will probably be close to this, as the next couple days/nights won't bring significant positives. For reference, summer 2014 was -1.1 here - quite cool - and summer 2013 was +0.9. So this will make three consecutive summers with moderate heat, and under +1 JJA departures. That should change next summer, based upon very early indications.

LGA would be 50 straight as well..if they make 80 today. Last I saw it was 79.

 

43 straight at JFK, it's 81 there.

 

Correct both NYC and LGA were 79F on 7/9 EWR was 80 that day.  Close to being 55 like ewr by 1 degree.

 

JFK was 79 on 7/16 and 77 on 7/9.

Based on the projected 850mb temps. only, today would have been our best chance to fail to reach 80 of the next 15 days.   Maybe 5 or 6  90's possible too.   Anyone know the Sept. record for 90 deg. days?   Probably set in 1961 perhaps?

Central Park's most consecutive days at 80° or above:

 

1. 59 (6/26-8/23/1944)

2. 50 (7/10-8/28/2015) ***Ongoing***

3. 41 (7/8-8/17/1943 and 7/4-8/13/2011)

5. 40 (6/20-7/29/1966)

Should break that. The next week alone looks pretty easy. Should also make a run at the most total 80 degree readings.
