Interesting that there is such variability in human physiology. I spend winters - and particularly this winter - with a very dry and stuffed up and sometimes burning nose. Humidity clears that right up, and humidity plus heat equals my easiest breathing. No way I could stand a desert climate except for visits. Bring on the rainforest!

Humidity with temperatures below freezing is great, I love that too. However once you get to around 70 and higher high humidity makes mold spores multiply quickly and causes bad air quality issues and high levels of air pollution, especially since it traps car exhaust closer to the surface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way I could stand a desert climate except for visits. Bring on the rainforest! (But I think I am in the minority). Rainforests are much better for biodiversity, the problem with that for us is that if the earth becomes more like that in the future, we're going to see a lot more microbial diseases and pandemics. Mosquitoes that carry malaria, dengue fever and other such infections are just an example. We'll also have a lot more worm infections, in nations that have tropical rain forests, the parasitic worm infection rate is as high as around 1 out of every 3 people (especially if they walk barefoot.) I love tropical rain forests too-- but to visit only. I've noticed I get very sick if I'm there more than 2 weeks. The water isn't all that good either.

A sure sign spring has arrived The weather flipped a switch in the last week of February; besides that brief 2 day bout of cold, we've been above normal ever since. That's probably why bulbs are sprouting and peepers are out. I've even seen flying insects get busy outside. The birds must be having a feast lol.

We were in the mid and upper 80s for three days and this was before the middle of the month, I think we hit 85, 86 and 88 on consecutive days.

Cfa Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Canceled my RadarScope subscription until we get weather, and with Long Island being the most boring part of the region outside of tropical events, it’ll be quite awhile. 2012 was the best spring+summer combination that I can recall, but this is the first March in a while that hasn’t sucked.

LibertyBell Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago 2 minutes ago, bluewave said: The 850 mb temperature forecast for next week would support 80°. But the warmest 850 mb temperatures peak at night. Plus we have clouds and onshore flow at the time of the peak. But a day before the 850s peak and front arrives could be a 70-75° day for the usual warm spots with enough sun. Any chance of a downslope wind on any of those days to get JFK to heat up, Chris? Doesn't that usually happen on the day of the frontal passage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
