bluewave Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 While there was an obvious backdoor influence this May, Boston to DC still experienced top 10 warmth. We continue the pattern with the warm up today followed by the backdoor for tomorrow. Boston....10th warmest so far NYC........6th........................ DCA........3rd........................

Expand Seem like backdoors were the only thing that held it back from being an all out torch of a month. DC at 3rd make sense being futherest removed from backdoor CF influences.

This was the first time DCA was this warm in May with it being so wet. Previous top 5 warmest Mays were dry there. The warm fronts/backdoor fronts were able to find a tropical moisture connection. Top 5 warmest Mays in DCA and rainfall: #1...2015.....1.92 #2...1991.....1.57 #3...2018.....7.41 #4...2004.....2.98 #5...1994.....1.56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACRUS Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Getting closer to full sun and EWR up to 85 already. We'll see if EWR/LGA and some other spots can grab their 5th 90 of this May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I believe both EWR and NYC set new earliest May monthly high temperature records. Both locations recorded the highs of 94 and 92 on May 3rd.

uncle W Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 if the 92 in NYC ends up as the warmest temp of the year it would join 2000 and 2009 as the other years in the 2000's with the hottest temp coming in April or May...it's a slim chance that happens again but slim chances sometimes pan out...some of the winters that followed these years were very good...before the winter October had record or near record cold most of these years...some even had a little October snow... years with the highest annual temp coming in April or May... 2009-10...very snowy 2009-10...three major storms... 2000-01...snowy with a major storm... 1996-97...mild with very little snow... 1992-93...Major storm in March... 1987-88...nothing major... 1976-77...very cold winter... 1969-70...very cold winter... 1962-63...very cold winter... 1939-40...very cold winter... 1914-15...major snowstorm in April... 1889-90...mild...March snowstorms... 1880-81...very cold winter...
