low of 61 at 6:35am, high of 88 at 5:38pm.

Not sure if anyone posted it, but the Sept edition of the NMME is slightly warmer for DJF than the Aug run, very similar to the CanSIPS.

Thanks, more to come. I don't remember 93-94 at all, even 95-96. I have a lot of nostalgia for 00-01 and 02-03 though.

Low of 67. Beautiful morning today.

The warm pool definitely isn't as extreme as it was a month ago

68/64, cloudy, calm boring weather, such as it is, is the best take

Yeah not great, but still a higher than normal chance for the big one

Tony did 1993 tie 1991 there or exceed it?

Our local forecasters have said that 10 of the last 14 days have been below normal. It just hasn't been hot since July 15th. 80 degrees is an easy bar to clear in the summer as long as it's sunny and we are finally in a nice dry stretch with just an occasional frontal passage. I think we'll finally get a nice dry month now.

I know but look at it this way. The Yankees need to hit home runs to win games and it's easier to hit home runs in hotter weather.

My thoughts are that its subpar from average, but not as much as some are assuming with a strong nino.

The wind is incredibly calm right now considering the sun is still out Another great day. High 80, low 58

A shower coming moving SW from offshore started here ~5 minutes ago. It likely won’t amount to too much due to it likely being brief due to rapid movement and it not being large.

@CoastalWx may be on to something here beating the boring drum as the focus turns to natgas, pipelines and domestic policies rather than weather

Natural gas prices are state regulated by PURA. They have to submit rate increases and get them approved similar to electricity. I believe its every 6 months like electricity so the price is extremely stable for 6 months.

The reason that area near the Bahamas and Gulf has been relatively quiet despite low shear is mostly due to how hostile it is east of there, in the MDR where most of the disturbances originate from that could cause storms to form there. Waves and weak storms like Dolly simply are not able to make it west to take advantage of the better conditions. As said above, fronts digging down into the gulf or the fall CAG would be the likely source of anything tropical in those areas. Edouard showed us that it’s possible to get homegrown systems this year, and the likelihood of another ramps up as fall fronts start to make it to the gulf. However, these aren’t ever home runs for development and stronger fronts usually favor more wind shear and dry air as we get later into the fall. The window for something strong to take advantage of these ribbons of favorable conditions is not huge, but if the Atlantic produces anything of note it will likely originate in these two areas as the rest of the basin is completely cooked by shear

-.83 today

i am one of those people who prefer a cool summer..
