Celebrate with multiple IPAs tonight,  you did it. BDL tied with 73 hottest ever and now driest. Was a perfect summer to me sans Izzy

 

You sit the grandkids on the knee and you say” Summer of 2020 was Yore” . That’s all they need to hear. They understand it was the best ever complete with damaging TS and they yearn for more just like it , in  a warming climate

My grandkids will remember swimming in Poppas pool for days and the BLTs from the garden. Special summer

Our grandparents told us about the great hurricanes. We get to tell the grandkids about the great tropical storm.

As a grandfather, I still look back to 1966 when I lived in NNJ.  That met summer held NYC's heat and drought records for 44 years until 2010 came in a fraction warmer.  Still holds the drought record, also tied with 1953 for most 100+ (4) though the earlier year's 4th triple came in met fall.  Since I spent that summer working between counter and grill at Curtis-Wright's summer resort, that additional heat just accentuated the extremes that season.  On Sunday, July 3 NYC was 103 and LGA 107 and we had the biggest crowd through the gate of any day in my 2 summers there.  The coil thermometer at the end of the counter was well beyond 120, the highest number on its face, and I worked a lot closer to grill and fryers than was that instrument.  It was so far beyond anything in my NNE experience that the memory is emblazoned on my brain.  :o
