GFS says mow teh lawn and crank the AC for the wetness we are about to encounter the next 4 day timeframe.

This could trend drier if the Bermuda High which is expanding west expands to far west and keeps us Hot and Humid but trains the storms more west that east.

yeah dew's are crazy, i got to a dew of 79. lows 70s is ugh but fairly common in most summers. We dont see upper 70s to 80 dews that often and not for days on end.

Also 100* heat index under cloudy skies dont see that often ether. Miami stuff.
The gulf is a steam bath upper 80s water temps throughout and even some low 90s. 80 degree water has made it to near Jersey shore.

My weather app has a warning for large hail starting in 5 minutes. thunderstorm is forming to my Southwest moving right towards me. I'll let you know if it occurs. It looks like it's going to be a wild few days with these thunderstorms popping up. temps in the low 90s with dew points in the upper 70s and any trigger could cause torrential rains. wondering if we get any severe weather like what occurred in Suffolk County today

There was also a EF-0 tornado in North Haven, CT and I happened to be driving through that area almost at that time and let me tell you the sky was amazingly scary looking. Several times I thought I saw clouds spiraling but not coming down to the ground. There was also a special marine warning for waterspouts but I am not sure if one happened or not. The tree damage in CT was localized to one neighborhood and one side of the area only. Not sure why its not on the NWS storm report page as news states it was confirmed by NWS as was the Suffolk county one (likely same storm that crossed LI sound). Pretty rare to have two weak tornados up in this area (especially on a day SPC did not have the area up for anything), I remember the EF-2 or 3 that happened in Hamden CT in the late 80's early 90's I believe which caused massive destruction, I remember touring the area and just being in awe. Its one of the things I think that got me eventually into weather.

Question, what do you guys think the chances are tomorrow our spirit cruise around NYC harbor lunch will be ok, will they leave dock if there are t-storms? I imagine we may get wet at some point and lets certainly hope there are no waterspouts! I already get seasick on a calm day lol

Holy cow, that's awful! I cannot stand humidity, let alone the heat itself. I have become the official reporter at my job for heat advisories etc. as we service ill clients and the heat definitely can adversely effect them. Hey nothing like some brownie points for showing care for our clients hehe.
