Hoping for some rain one of these nights. I think the next three days there is a chance for pop up T storms
Yup. Been offshore since Monday. I played golf in Old Bridge where it was 90+. Got back home where it was 78.
Talked about this earlier. You can really see the influence of the S/SW winds off the still-cool ocean/bay in today's map (and same has been true the past few days) of high temps in NJ, with highs in the upper 70s into the low/mid-80s along Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean and even inland 5-10 miles from each.
A couple of things: Mungo Jerry was a band, not a person. In The Summertime was their first single, it was a worldwide #1 hit which is why it finally got exposure in the US. The band was out of the UK, and had a number of other hits after this one in the UK territories (Aus, NZ, Ireland) and in Europe, but nothing ever hit the charts in the US.
Around 2013 I rode my bike in confirmed 107 F. That was in NY where the governor just excitedly reported that NY had never hit 100 F before.
Yesterday the drivers were really sloppy and bad. Three localish fatalities that I know of. Way too many state road construction projects (part money laundering operations) in small areas.

Yeah Kathy is a special kind of a stupid liar
Had our company picnic yesterday, just too damn hot to do anything in the sun other than go in the pool. Definitely cruel to be out there. Spent the time in the shade or in the pavilion.
I see our resident nutcase emoticoned my last post with his latest ID, Spanky Hates Free Speech. He's too stupid to realize that I wasn't the one who banned him yesterday.
What? We had a WINTER Olympics in friggin Sochi (a SUMMER resort). Anything is possible with the Olympics.
That's why people go to the beach in the summertime. Thank you for attending our TED talk.
So far this week has been hot but manageable. Today is a ‘get the hell in the air conditioning’ kinda day.
three days in the 90s. Love the relative nature of temps…three delightful days in the 80s and one in the 70s with some yummy rain! Enjoy summer…best season!
Sometimes the roads make temps rise. Back in the 90s when I was going to Jersey a lot the temps would go up 10 degrees every time I hit 287. Concrete and asphalt absorb and store heat.
Speaking of heat, I'm watching my 10th Era Tour gig (UK this week) and realized Taylor swift never sweats. Maybe they have blowers or something? Do some people not sweat? I would be soaked after 2 minutes.
Here's a decent vid (Cardiff) if interested (sound get better after a few minutes but the visuals are great)
