awesome I was wondering how long it would be before the 95 record from October 2 a few years ago would be broken

not saying we will fully mix out but +16 850s are exceptional for late october. that would actually translate to mid 90s in the warmer spots in july

Records:

 

Highs:

 

EWR: 84 (1947)
NYC: 84 (1920)
LGA: 82 (1947)


Lows:

 

EWR: 31 (1974)- reverse
NYC: 31 (1871)
LGA:33 (1974)

Historical:

 

1934 - A severe windstorm lashed the northern Pacific coast. In Washington State, the storm claimed the lives of 22 persons, and caused 1.7 million dollars damage, mostly to timber. Winds, gusting to 87 mph at North Head WA, produced waves twenty feet high. (David Ludlum)

1957 - The second in a series of unusual October storms hit southern California causing widespread thunderstorms. Santa Maria was drenched with 1.13 inches of rain in two hours. Hail drifted to 18 inches in East Los Angeles. Waterspouts were sighted off Point Mugu and Oceanside. (20th-21st) (The Weather Channel)

 

1975: Carlton Fisk made history on this day because of a walk-off home run in the 1975 World Series, after rain had postponed it for three days.

1987 - Cold arctic air continued to invade the central U.S. Eleven record lows were reported in the Great Plains Region, including lows of 12 degrees at Valentine NE, and 9 degrees at Aberdeen SD. Temperatures warmed rapidly during the day in the Southern and Central Plains Region. Goodland KS warmed from a morning low of 24 degrees to an afternoon high of 75 degrees. (The National Weather Summary)

1988 - Joan, the last hurricane of the season, neared the coast of Nicaragua packing 125 mph winds. Joan claimed more than 200 lives as she moved over Central America, and total damage approached 1.5 billion dollars. Crossing more than 40 degrees of longitude, Hurricane Joan never strayed even one degree from the 12 degree north parallel. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - Unseasonably cold weather continued to grip the south central and southeastern U.S. Twenty cities reported record low temperatures for the date, including Calico AR with a reading of 26 degrees, and Daytona Beach FL with a low of 41 degrees. Squalls in the Great Lakes Region finally came to an end, but not before leaving Marquette MI buried under 12.7 inches of snow, a record 24 hour total for October. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

The coolest air so far this season will move into the region tonight as the clouds continue to depart. Tomorrow through Tuesday will be chilly late autumnlike days. Some frost will be possible in areas outside New York City and Newark.

However, by the middle of the week, temperatures will surge to above and perhaps much above normal levels. During the peak of the warmth, the temperature could reach 70° or above as far north as southern New England. Much cooler air could return to close out October.

Nevertheless, October is on track to finish as a warmer than normal month. Since 1950, only a single El Niño event with a monthly ENSO R3.4 anomaly of +1.00°C or above was warmer than normal in New York City during October: 2015 (sample size: 6). If one lowers the ENSO R3.4 anomaly to +0.75°C or above, only two 2/12 (17%) of El Niño cases saw a warmer than normal October in New York City: 1963 and 2015.  

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.3°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.5°C for the week centered around October 11. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.67°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.57°C. El Niño conditions will likely continue to strengthen into the fall with the current East-based event transitioning to a basinwide El Niño for the upcoming winter.

The SOI was -23.47 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.482 today.

On October 18 the MJO was in Phase 1 at an amplitude of 0.252 (RMM). The October 17-adjusted amplitude was 0.229 (RMM).

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 79% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal October (1991-2020 normal). October will likely finish with a mean temperature near 59.1° (1.2° above normal).

Models now indicating record 80° heat possible for next weekend. Maybe we can finally break the streak of rainy weekends. This would be the warm and sunny weekend which was so elusive all summer.

Certainly looks like a dry start to the weekend per attached WPC 7 day qpf through 12z Sunday the 29th... 

I'm still not giving up on weekend rain, but odds seem to push any weekend rain threat to later Sunday, if then.

Have checked ensembles through the 00z-06z/22 cycle.
