How's the weather?

[NYEric]

It's supposed to be in the 90's F today, I'm staying in the office, cool in the AC!

 

[Paul Mc]

Over 100F for over 4 weeks, maybe 5 now... Entire state declared a disaster zone. Fires happening because hay/roofs/etc... Are just too hot.

 

[NYEric]

Where?

 

[Paul Mc]

St. Louis, MO

 

[NYEric]

Sorry to hear that. It got reasonable here in NYC. 80's!

rain tonight/this morning, which we need. windy storms went north and south yesterday evening; no more straight line winds thank you

 

[NYEric]

Heard there was a tornado in Elmira last night. Hope Charles is OK!

 

[Dido]

I had to move all my slippers inside. Just to darn hot for them in the garage.
They can probably go back in Sept. Possible mature Sandy in the works. Wish me luck.

Dull! Dull! Dull! Sunny and warm almost every day. Virtually no rain for three months. Only slight breezes at times. Not even a decent thunderstorm... Booooring!:snore:

I heard that this morning as well; something about a disaster area or state of emergency for some spots but don't know more details. I was watching the dark clouds that were passing us to the south, which was probably that system after it had passed by binghamton

(update) here is the latest national weather service prediction for eastern ny and western new england

Flash Floods Possible in Portions of the Northeast Through Sunday Morning

Slow-moving thunderstorms are expected to develop in the Northeast on Saturday, and they will be capable of producing several inches of rainfall in a short period of time. This would easily bring some streams and creeks over their banks. The area with the greatest risk for flash flooding will be from the eastern Catskills to western New England.

there is a large heavy storm heading east along the nys thruway heading towards syracuse and utica (7am saturday); slippertalk members in eastern ny near flood prone areas should check it out. they are getting larger as they head east as the humidity is still very high

Oh wow!!!! Hope everyone is ok!!!!

Well, I had to pull sweaters out of the closet because it was only in the 90's for a few days, lol... Sad when you think the 90's are cool, but glad we had two days of it. Back to the 100's again tomorrow.

 

[NYEric]

I think they said it was going down to 68F in NYC tonight!

head to st. louis, missouri; was told they have had five weeks near or above 100˚F this year and still going

 

[Paul Mc]

Yup, though we brought out out sweaters this week... Highs in the upper 90's, lol.... But we're back in the 100's again....

 

[NYEric]

Humid and 90F today in NYC.

 

[Paph_LdyMacBeth]

90 is good.
I love the heat and humidity, but normally with it comes rain and storms. Not this year
I'm beginning to feel guilty for my love of this parching heat!
