Today in New York Weather History: June 10

 

1974 (Monday)

In a month that was on the cool side (2.6 degrees below average), today stood out because it was quite hot.  With a high/low of 95°/74°, it was fifteen degrees above average.  This was the first of four days this summer with a high of 95° (the other three were in July).

 

 

1996 (Thursday)

Although it was just a spritz, the 0.01" of rain that fell this afternoon was the first measurable rain on this date in 15 years.

 

2008 (Tuesday)

For the second day in a row the high hit 96°, a record for the date.  This was the last day of a four-day heat wave.  (The next time there would be a heat wave of this length in June would be in 2021, June 6-9).
