Good evening gravity. The postage stamp had a one foot square downpour. Either that or the third floor apartments AC is leaking again. Stay well, as always. ….

A Jolly Good Miss:                           A dead calm suddenly got a little breeze to it, as showers passed to the north.         Was watching fireworks here in CI 9:45pm-10:05pm.

Probably won't see any good rain here until mid-August at best. Globals are dry for my location for the foreseeable future. Summer 2010 had a localized drought on the south shore, by August leaves we're turning yellow on stressed trees. That will definitely happen soon if it isn't happening already. Late July - mid October 2019 was the last significant dry period here. That caused the fall colors to come earlier despite it being relatively warm.

Several of our stations are near the top of the list for July heat and lack of rainfall.

The last 2 days of July are averaging  82degs.(73/91)or +4.

The tree growth issue at the Central Park ASOS has caused the temperatures during the last heatwave run cooler than the warmest urban sites by 5-8°. The main problem here is that the major media outlets focus very heavily on that Central Park temperature for their forecasts. Most forecasts for NYC were highs in the  mid 90s which reflects the error at the ASOS. Each day from 7-20 to 7-24 there were multiple 100° or warmer temperatures. Most forecasts didn’t mention 100° potential on their broadcasts. Instead, there were several twitter posts saying how the 100° readings were not reliable. This is doing a giant disservice to the public experiencing the 100° heat. The list below is all the 100° highs each day and the Central Park differential. The NYC micronet data is from the ground level sites to match the other networks.

I guess the motto here becomes---if you do not have AC where you live---just snuggle up close to the ASOS at Belvedere Castle!    

That's Where It's at Man!

Seriously speaking, I have the same problem on my balcony.      While the sun's rays never reach the themometer---a weak PM breeze---allows heat to accumulate there.    Still, I have not made it to 100 this year---just 99 briefly, which I reported as a 96---since it was the most predominate T that PM.      In 2019, I believe it was---99 that was predominate.{yep, same timeline of July 20,21 which together have about 9 of the 59  100-Degree Days in NYC station history}

Too bad their isn’t more room at that spot since it would save many a long trip out to Long Island which has the same temperatures.

La Niña through the winter perhaps

 

[SACRUS]

Made it down to 69,  Now up to 80 / 57 and gorgeous summer and beach weather.  The warmer / drier spots have a shot at 90 today and tomorrow, otherwise sunny and just spectacular these next two days to close the month.  Monday still looks to be the next chance for rain / storms as warm front begins moving through and setting the stage for the next roasting.

 

By Tue (8/2) the Western Atlantic ridge is building way west and eventulally joins the Rockies/Plains Ridge by the middle of the Week Wed (8/3) and Thu (8/4) with a blast of strong heat coming in by next Fri (8/5) and through next weekend as it looks now, with the euro bringning in >20c 850 temps at times. The ridge contracts and resurges into the week of Mon (8/8) with overall a hot pattern to at times strong heat.  Still some details to be worked out that could foster storms around the rim of the ridge and Ridge could build over and force onshore or NE flow at times to keep it just warm to hot on days.  But overall dog days of summer and some of the hottest Aug temps sustained since 2015 or more.

It will be interesting to see if there is an attribution study. If so, these events may be covered in the same study, even as they occurred days apart.

We can add Utqiagvik to the list of spots with extreme rainfall this month.

 

 

[Wxoutlooksblog]

Beautiful day out there though some locations may hit 90. The possible heatwave would start Tuesday or Wednesday. It will be interesting to see which school of thought prevails in reality with regards to the evolution into, duration, and extent of the heat. The European model is certainly the hottest case scenario at the moment. I question the NWS forecast of upper 80s on Monday with the warm front approaching the area. More than likely there will be clouds at the very least with the possibility of a few showers and I would doubt temperatures get much above 80 if they even get that high.

Some trees here in SW Suffolk are starting to lose their leaves due to the drought stress. Things will dry out further today on a warm downslope flow. It’s soundings like this that show why it so hard to get rain here.

Monthly rain total at my station at Cherry Grove is 0.36”.  Two events during the past few days have accounted for 0.03”.  The remainder fell on or before 7/5/22.

Up to a very comfortable 90 / 54 here , breeze and just golden out.  Less than an inch here for the month for rainfall and that looks to stick through sunday night.  Is there a fall flooding on the horizon - id bet yes.

Only the 3rd time that Newark reached 30 days of 90° highs by July 30th. So 40 days looks like a given. Could make a run on 50 days.
