I feel like there's been a sea breeze all day. JFK's winds have been S to SW all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 That 84 dew point at JFK would only be the second time a major ASOS station around NYC Metro was so high. The only other 84 dew point appears to be Newark on 7/15/95. https://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KEWR/1995/7/15/DailyHistory.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or it was extremely localized due to thunderstorm activity. At first glance it would appear today's oppressiveness up and down the coast has been more impressive.

But the wind started crankinging right about the time that DP spiked. Local PWS in long beach was over 80 as well. I wonder if the NWS will comment on it. Would love to know if that was legit.
