Summer 2013 Thread — Northern Hemisphere (hottest, places, clouds, compared)

[nei]

Of note, drought conditions (which were mild to begin with and not yet obviously affecting vegetation) is over for most of New England, though it's still in the "abnormally dry". Data is up to Tuesday morning so the additional 1.1" or so in the last couple days is an additional help. The onset of more humid air seems to have led to (or be associasted with) a more active storm pattern. Rainfall rates are higher, too.

Regional Drought Monitor: Northeast

Too hot for you? Think Ice Bergs & take a look at this one spotted yesterday 5/29 in Twillingate Newfoundland. They actually have boat tours for this. http://icebergquest.com/

2:30pmEST Temp Update.

Not surprising to see the main areas in the 90s are Baltimore, Philly, NYC, & Hartford metros
Otherwise it's pretty much 80s widespread in the East

It's so nice out. A balmy 91F, down from a high of 94F.

Windsor Locks, CT(BDL) monthly temp departure is -0.1 below normal.

Todays High is 91 so far, Normal max is 75. Goodbye minus sign. LOL

Atlantic City Intl Airport, ten miles inland from AC reached a high of 91F.

Loads of other 90's in our area. Somehow I'm thinking you are trying to downplay this May heat and blame it on urban heat islands. You would be wrong.

Here, and these temps are past the afternoon highs for the most part. Temps at 5:15pm.

101 F in Jackson, is that right?
Big differeces around New york city, 77 F in the east, 90 in the northwest
