HAT to NJ (the loop/frame I quoted you) is around 5 degrees latitude or roughly 260-270 mi. That's why it weakens quite a bit- slow movement and land interaction. Beyond that is irrelevant.

The latest 90 at JFK was 10-8-07 with the 2nd on 9-24-17. The latest 100 was 8-27-48 with 8-20-83 coming in 2nd. But it’s possible 9-2-53 was last 100 since the JFK data is missing for that month. 1953 still stands as our greatest late season heatwave. One of the few heat records that the 2010’s couldn’t beat.

Gloria is a good example. It was sort of wiped out by the time it reached 40N, even though it was moving along at like 35mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a very impressive US drought in the early to mid 50’s. Most of our higher count 100 degree day years had extensive drought in the Central or Eastern US. We briefly got into this geographic severe drought regime from 2010-2013. Newark was able to set the all-time record high of 108 during the historic Southern Plains drought in 2011.This pattern reversed in the following years with the record rainfall, more clouds, and record dewpoints limiting 100 degree potential.

It made landfall in NC as cat 1 and was still a cat 1 when it hit AC. Like every hurricane that takes a track like that the highest winds will always stay out over water or hit LI. Of course my block was the only place that managed to have a tree come down and take out power lines but I think that had more to do with the incredibly saturated ground since the highest gusts were only 50-55 mph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might still have been classified as a category one storm by the time it reached up here but the winds were mostly offshore. Irene was a 12 hour monsoon. I know because I lived it.

You're absolutely right, but we don't yet know the amount of land interaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean technically yes but it only weakened by 5-10 mph from NC to NYC because it was mostly over the chesapeake. a track up the delaware river would've caused more wind damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching the radar. By the time the center came onshore, the entire Southern quadrant had already been wiped out by dry air. The 00z Euro had a much different scenario, with an offshore track until reaching NJ. It's totally irrelevant anyway. I'm sure the Euro is going to spit out an entirely different track this run.

You posted the 168-216 hr loop, and said it was moving quickly, when it actually showed a relative crawl for a mid-latitude TC. I was just making sure there was no confusion.

NJwx85 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 If you're interested in Irene, you can watch this yourself and see how the system just basically rotted inland over Eastern NC. It had no core left by the time it made landfall anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why so many think we could be affected by a tropical system next week, a million things would have to align for the Euro solution to happen. I see the synoptics, storm moves through Bahamas just east of Florida and then turns N/NE into a weakness. Ridge reforms to its N/NE and storm turns back to the NW and hits someone on the coast. Question is how strong will the system be, how strong will be weakness/ridge be, and where will the storm initially go. Will it be near the Gulf like GFS or east of Florida.

Gravity Wave Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Looks like it just manages to escape to the east at 216 as the ridge shift/breaks down but obviously the general idea from 0z is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binbisso Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Whether we get a hurricane or not next week the big change is it's going to be much cooler Monday through Thursday if GFS and Euro are correct. After that we have to see the effects of the two tropical systems as they head North and how they affect the pattern for the last 10 days of September 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Same old story since late July with the record heat remaining to our south. Looks like Atlantic City tied their record high of 94 degrees. Less warm is the new cool for us. 9/12 94 in 1961 91 in 1952 89 in 2005+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the weakness that takes it east of FL is weaker or the ridge is a bit stronger than it would've been a hit. At the very least it'll make things somewhat interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
