An air quality has broken the record for early summer rings in the Midwest as it pushed into the Northeast on Tuesday, June 24, millions of Northeasters ended up suffering from the hottest weather ever experienced in the Interstate 95 Corridor 95 that had experienced earlier in the summer.
As the sea wind and full sun arrive a few days after the summer solstice, conditions are close to textbooks – ideally, this heat spread throughout the Northeast and New England. In the mid-Atlantic, the heat further south is more grinding than the recorded grinding. All in all, Tuesday's temperature was close to or exceeded the 100 degrees Fahrenheit mark (37.8 degrees Celsius). Raleigh, North Carolinaarrive Manchester, New Hampshire.
It is no surprise that this situation could bring unprecedented high temperatures in the age of human-induced warming. The Climate Change Index for the nonprofit climate center (see Figure 1 below), which evaluates the daily forecast temperatures versus the expectations of climate change if there is no climate change, suggests that from the eastern corn belt to the wide range of areas in the Mid-Atlantic and the upper southern region will increase at least five times the amount of calories in the long-term climate change on Tuesday. The area is close to the center of a sprawling upper high school, a common summer setting that tends to generate long periods of full heat that gets hotter as global warming returns.
For New England, there is a greater natural change in temperature this time of year, which is probably why the multiplier of climate change there is lower – about two to three. Still, that's enough, plus Tuesday's classic production weather setting to produce a more striking record than the South.
From wet and stuffy to miserable heat
The roots of the scorching heat in the Northeast on Tuesday stretched to an unusually humid air quality that pushed to the Midwest over the weekend. Set some record highs, but the richness of low-level moisture is equally unusual. The rugged air is not widely stormy, keeping many cities warm on a June night. On Sunday, June 22, Chicago The earliest recorded 80°F, which is the overnight high temperature that occurs later in the summer, only every 5 to 10 years or so. Detroit At the low of 78°F on Sunday, it was also the earliest record, so warm in the 150-year record keeping.
exist Minneapolis St. Paulthe 80°F Saturday low was the earliest record, dating back to 1872. On Sunday, bets rose another gap, with a thriving low of 82°F. At other times, the Twins used to have recorded nights, and during the Dust Bowl, the serious exaggeration of the Great Plains helped inspire a decade of record disasters, a form of self-induced climate change.

When the stuffy air quality on Monday and Tuesday pushed northeast, it was driven by the moderately strong West Wind Creek – it first climbed the west side of the Appalachians and then landed on the east side. When it is forced downhill, the air quality heats up further and the relative humidity drops, even if the air is still quite humid. The result is: only a few scattered clouds, leaving a full late-June sunshine, cooked the hot air in the hot air heading towards I-95. The flow from the northwest to the northwest also makes it impossible for any cold land breeze to trim the heating, as they are easy to do in late spring and summer coastal northeast and in late spring and early summer in New England.
Statistics selected from statistics recorded on Monday and Tuesday in the east
on Monday, Central Park in New York City The earliest data can be traced back to 80°F in 1869. Then after Tuesday's 81°F, it was any year ago when it was recorded in Central Park before July 3. The city will also record up to 96°F daily, 99°F on Tuesday, the second time it recorded in Central Park early this year (the earliest 99°F was May 19, 1962).
Tuesday's record heat stretched to Quebec, where Montreal Data for any year can be traced back to 1872. Tuesday's Humidex (Canada's Heat Index) recorded its second earliest 35 degrees Celsius (95°F) reading with 45-bit data. As Maximiliano Herrera points out, several locations in Canada set historical records for June.
Tuesday's high 100°F Raleigh, North Carolina, Set daily records, both Richmond and Washington, DC, Up to 99°F.
