The future from my perspective: will begin a new two day topic for Wednesday-Thursday and add a couple of graphics by 740A. Next heat-convective event sometime between Sunday afternoon and the middle of next week, but modeling is variable as to which day? and modeling is also variable if indeed another heat wave occurs for NYC between the 26th-29th. I do note the GFS operational has reverted to a potential nw flow event here Sunday (00z/06z 21 cycles), but other global models differ (early or middle of next week).  No matter, opportunity for action continues in the overall pattern sometime between Sunday the 26th and Wednesday the 29th.

Looking back the past two days... looks like 97 was the good non-marine influenced max T for the 19th-20th.  Even though the HI made it up to near 103-104 in Toms River and possibly parts of LI, overall, I think the max HI was closer to ~100 .. and so from my perspective yesterday-Monday the 20th, did not quite live up to the intense heat  that was suggested in some of the modeling (trough too close and so some afternoon lowering of the TD near the city on a westerly surface wind). 

Yesterday was a high end event on Long Island. Every ASOS out to Montauk hit 90 and had HI close to 100. That’s rare. 

FRG ASOS reported heat index of 104, probably higher between hours. That’s representative of a large chunk of Long Island. The ISP readings have been out to lunch for weeks.

86/66 off a low of 70.  Good Vibrations - great beach day this Tuesday Jul 21st.

Less clouds more of a NW flow today perhaps can lead to opposite of yesterday and over perform today.  Either way more low  - mid 90s less humid initially but dewpoints will come up later as winds go more SW/SSW by evening and overnight.  Tomorrow warm front pushing north with higher dewpints temps and surging 850 temps.  Clouds and storms should be more numerous and we will need to watch if the 90s continue.  Dry things out Thu and Fri but more 90 / low 90s before winds go around onshore this weekend. Pending on when winds shift which looks to be Sun PM could determine when the next heatwave starts.  As it looks right now break Sat and late maxes Sunday starts the next round of heat especially away from the coast. Mon - Wed strong heat with 850 temps forecasted a >18c and peaking Tue at 21C - offering the next shot at triple digits.  A strong cold front looks to come in Wed (7/29) at some point and bring in some cooler air to close the month.  Ridge is in the Plains by Aug 1st and again looking to eject more heat towards the east in  early August with WAR near by.  August looks to start quite humid as well and that should mean warm and wetter.  Lets see how it evolves. Looking like Aug 4th for next heat surge at this point.

Having  so many 95° or warmer days this July, it would be a oddity for LGA not to reach 100°. With the heat in the forecast, LGA could finish in 2nd place for the most 95° or warmer days in July.

EWR had some southerly affect from the Bay holding at 88.  winds now more SW, see if they spike.  Or perhaps there was some calibration done there.

on TJFK radar it looks like the sea breeze moved east on the past few frames
