Looks like in and around Asheville are getting hit hard

How often does this happen in the NW US in July during a strong El Niño? I assume hardly ever. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

so is this going to be Europe's hottest month or something? The GFS still has like +10C for France for a while.

Feel lucky to only be getting 95 here lol.

Has not rained this hard IMBY for a very long time

What a turnaround this month for the Triangle area

I think the evidence grows that there is a population in NWS that just doesn’t like heat and doesn’t want to hear about it. They lean less, and insults intelligence in a way, as tho we don’t see right through it… They downplay it or mock it or do things like that because what’s really going on is their personal attitudes and perspectives overwhelm and it bleeds in - I get it no humans perfectly objective… But it goes the other way too I don’t care what these fucks feel that don’t like hyperbole about heat and extremes tho. Guess what ? it is that bad and it needs to be hotly expressed no pun intended, because nobody is paying attention enough to what is clearly an existential threat. We are in a physical mass extinction event, and there is no other culprit that science can physically that isn’tglobal warming. Fuck it talking bricks

That’s a solid line sagging south.

This team just won 4 consecutive games for the first time this season, and are still 5 games under 500. Sure the AL sucks ass but they have not demonstrated the ability to go on a run to get them to/over the 500 mark. They will probably start the second half with a mediocre addition or 2 and proceed to lose 3 or 4 in a row. No reason to believe otherwise.

Made me think of this...

It's been odd that for two days it would pour in every direction from me, then something would slowly move this way as it was dying out and we'd get 1/4th to 1/2 inch of rain. Today it just sat over my area and it's rained 1.75 inches this evening and it's caused some flooding. I think the boundary is just very slowly sinking south and it will finally clear by Monday evening.

I don't think its a deer tick. This doesn't have the shape of a tick. I will try and catch a photo when I am outside tomorrow somehow. But I just did a google search (didn't try before because everytime you put something into google, the result usually is you're going to die). Anyways, I found a photo someone posted on Facebook and this kind of looks like it. The comments are no help Since I am posting someone's finger, here is the link so they get credit https://www.facebook.com/groups/485390939752444/posts/1043588527266013/

With Elias at the helm, 100% something completely illogical will transpire.

0.01 northern Waynesboro - very heavy rain just to my south again... 1.24 for the 9 days of storms.. southern 3/4 of Waynesboro soaked repeatedly....

What a top 10 summer day today was!

Getting a good shower at the moment. Yard is starting to maybe show some signs of life?

Bonus, kill off the Cyclospora parasites.

My brother is out on a road trip for nearly a month. He sent me pics from Yellowstone. I bet he is baking in the heat, if he's not high up in altitude right now.

More beneficial rain today and looks like a rainy week as well. I absolutely love this weather. Rain everyday and temps in the 70s.

I slept in several fleece jackets and winter hat. There a few days where my breath was visible inside the house towards the last couple days

That's going to hurt, both literally and figuratively. Idk what this team is going to do at the deadline, except I'm sure it'll be something completely stupid. That I'm almost sure of.....

The question remains...did you send out HAPPY POWER OUTTAGE CARDS?? LOL

Summer convection is so fickle. The plot of soil moisture anomalies is pretty textbook across the eastern half of the country. Tons of sporadic wet/dry signals within close proximity to each other. Only a few larger areas noteworthy for widespread wet top layer soil conditions. Need a broader synoptic scale disturbance to provide a more widespread convective threat followed by stratiform to get things to be evenly distributed. Could use one of those remnant tropical disturbances that have been lacking in these parts, outside that sweep over from Ida.
