doncat Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Even with the mild last three days, March finished here with a -1.5° temp departure...Precip of 4.60", so 13 of the past 14 months have been above normal precip wise. Snowfall of 10.1" , all of that to start the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 You're all lightweights with your beer and 100s. My ideal summer day is snorting coke in the 120 degree heat. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastalplainsnowman Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Someone's probably already asked and answered this already, but has anyone happened to confirm whether we've ever had a 12 month stretch like the one which just ended (4/1/2018-3/31/2019), in which Long Island (and possibly NYC) received more snow in the April-November timeframe than the subsequent December-March?

You can build up a tolerance for it, if you drink lots of water etc. The humidity is a killer though. I've done rides in the low 90s with relatively low humidity. If you're not trying to race up hills its not so bad. Last summer I rode very little cuz it was always extremely humid. 75+ dewpoints seemed almost daily at one point. Even temps in the low 80s wit that humidity it was hard to do any activity beyond stand still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I didn't ride much last year either because of the weather and a busted left hand that made it difficult to hold a handlebar. I paid for the inactivity with a heart attack in December due to laziness and lost fitness So see what ya can do about keeping the humidity down this year so I can get out and ride more comfortably would ya please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even temps in the low 80s wit that humidity it was hard to do any activity beyond stand still. July 1999 was probably one of my more difficult bike rides on the LB boardwalk. That was the last time around the area with 100 degrees and a 75 dew point combined. I guess it’s a small consolation that all the 75 dew point days since then stayed below 100 degrees. Our big run of 100 degree days from 2010 to 2013 were mostly drier heat. The major run of 75 degree dew points since 2015 were wetter with clouds and onshore flow keeping temperatures below 100 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High heat/low humidity weather is VERY therapeutic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That summer we had some kind of bird flu epidemic, I remember seeing dead crows in my backyard. I've seen that in some other very hot summers too.

LibertyBell Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 BTW we had a Mag 3 earthquake this morning (7:22 am) just south of the Hamptons (33 miles SE of Southampton, 4.4 miles deep.) It was felt over Long Island, parts of the city and all the way to Albany. Maybe that decision to allow offshore drilling wasn't such a good idea.....
