While the sample size was small, this was the coolest July at LGA following a 100 degree or warmer temperature in June. The other 2 Julys at LGA averaged around 80 degrees. This was also the first time that LGA had 4 days in a row under 80 during July following a June 100. So the lack of follow up heat this July was a bit of an anomaly compared to the past.

June 2017....101...July...78.4.....4 days in a row below 80

June 2008....100...July...80.0.....2 days in a row below 80

June 1952.....101..July...80.3.....1 day below 80

Miserable day! 66 cloudy and windy. 

One of the lousiest stretches (6 days) of summer in a while.  Luckily better times ahead in August and it wasnt a season-full (2004, 2000, 1996) like this past week.

First time since July 2009 that a station like LGA had 4 days in a row below 80 in July.

unless you planed on going to the beach todays weather is great for late July in the city...

It's unusual when you can save on winter heating and summer cooling bills in the same year. This looks like the first time since the 97-98 winter and 98 summer. Warm winter and cooler cooler summer couplets are a rarity around here.

So far, you mean major summer heat as in 95 (+) or # of 90 degree days?

Overall coolest summer since 97-98 following top 5 winter warmth. The 2016, 2012, and 2002 summers were hotter.

#1...01-02

#2...15-16

#3...16-17

#4...11-12

Very windy at the coast.  Air is dry and it certainly doesn't feel like beach weather.

Most of these weekends going back to mid April had at least some measurable rainfall around the area. Looks like we may keep the streak going for next weekend with a slow frontal passage.

Yep.  I don't understand how a trend can go on for so long.  I hope August brings about some better weather.

The 2010's is the decade of stuck or stagnant weather patterns.
