Noticable up tick in the humidity this AM.  72F/DP 67/RH 84%

[SACRUS]

 

78 / 64 , some showers and clouds into EPA/ NW NJ should clear out in the next hour.  Upper 80s low 90s for the warmer spots.  Sun (8/21) could see clouds and onshore flow move in before trough pushes a front through on Mon (8/22).  Mon into Tue (8/23) best shot at rain since the last best shot, widespread 0.75 / 2 inches of rain (lets see).  Beyond there Wed (8/24) - Sat (8/27) warmer to  - hot, more shot at 90s for the warmer / drier spots.  Monday rains could mute 90 degree heat in the park.  Overall warm to hot at times the last 10 days of August.  Rain chances Mon / Tue and the week of 8/29.

The actual number of 90° days in Central Park is probably closer to 30 away from the deep shade trees around the castle. NYC used to almost always have 30 days of 90° when Newark reached 40 days. This was when the equipment was out in the open instead of under the trees. The years before the tree growth took off after 2002 featured NYC running much closer to Newark with just 10 or fewer 90° days. This number has increased to 18-24 fewer days since 2016. I am a bit surprised the big media outlets in NYC haven’t taken notice of this growing differential in their weather reports. They would realize how inaccurate the NYC high temperatures have become.

Driving up the Taconic on this warm humid morning (81F in Yorktown Heights) and I notice the trees are starting to change from the dryness

[SnoSki14]

Pretty good model agreement on widespread 1"+ amounts Monday.

We haven't seen this in months.

Hopefully this won't be a start of a trend of the models taking away our potential significant rain event. I see RGEM cut back on the 12z run too, now showing the bigger rain amounts staying to the southwest. Knowing that every potential event has fallen apart during this horrible drought, it certainly wouldn't be surprising if it happens again.

Very early to be using short range models, but I get the skepticism 

[nyrangers1022]

Actually had a brief shower that got half the pavement wet for about 30 seconds

And the gfs has heavier amounts to the north but still get .75" give or take 

[psv88]

Incredibly humid again. 87/68. 

[forkyfork]

imo the best shot at anything organized and substantial is sunday night with the warm front 

[psv88]

89/68/93 in the shade right now. Nasty day.

Looking steady on guidance for a 0.75 or > type event.  We'll see how it progresses.

If Newark can pull off .75, then it will be the first time since June 9th.

Raining here in Woodbury NY

[Wxoutlooksblog]

Some scattered storms around the area now as is expected with the slight uptick in humidity levels. But Central Park is on the edge of notching their 21st 90 degree day of the season. I'm finding it easy to see the Park getting to 25 maybe more than that by sometime in September. After today the next possible 90 in the Park being Thursday the 25th with an even better chance Friday the 26th.

Today I really noticed the drought related damage to trees and bushes vs just lawns.
