Looks like the wonderful dry weather is back. No rain in sight for the next couple of weeks, add some 90's to that too.

I still think you should be more than happy Weymouth got two 20"+ "white gold" events in one season this past winter. I bet that has not happened more than 10x in last 60-70 years in the immediate area. Let me put it this way, nothing even remotely close like this happened in the 80s. Scott used to get mad as a kid when he expected 4-8" fcst by WBZ on the "backlash" and he'd wake up next morning to sunny conditions! "I WANTED NO 'SKEWL' !!!" I had my share. I recall on NOAA Wx Radio, NWS BOS would say "the storm failed to develop." This was a fcst like 24 hr out. Storms don't just "fail" like that in such short range. It was the stupid LFM model turning flat waves into 980 mb S+ events! It had so many problems w/ convective feedback. The NGM out by 1985 largely took care of his problem, but Scott still called it the "NO GOOD MODEL!"

We got about .2 here. About 15 miles south of me there was around 1/2 inch.

Full sun just popped out here. Should be a beautiful evening.

It's strange how our human bodies work differently. The older I get, the more I despise the cold. When I was young, I didn't mind it, but as I got older I started to dislike it. Now I flat out hate it. If it's really cold, it can be downright painful, but in general, I just hate bundling up anymore, and love the freedom of a short sleeve shirt and shorts/jeans. As for the snow and ice, that's a trucking thing. If I worked inside and just had a to and from work commute, I'd probably somewhat like snow

Per RONI Nino 3.4, no Super El Nino was ever this low in mid-May. Might be Super per ONI and Strong, RONI.

I think its a combination of all three. Its been lingering there for a bit, we'll see it shrink towards late June

Had light snow and graupel again today at 1,500ft. Dew points in the low to mid-20s have been quite effective at evaporationally cooling the cores of the showers.

0.29 spread over several hours. I'll take it! (measurement from Mesonet 2 miles away)

Hopefully we can lay down 2 to 3" of basin coverage from that nor'easter on Thursday ...

https://www.masslive.com/news/2026/05/drought-conditions-in-mass-worsen-after-brief-improvement.html Not great news going into the dry season. Many ponds and reservoirs still kinda low I've noticed. Except in Baldwinville and Otter River......

Man.. can't wait for this winter to finally be over -

Frost advisory's and freeze warnings are out for tonight.

This coming high amplitude MJO push into the PAC as we go into late month, coupled with an ERW is going to cause another massive WWB and a continued strengthening of this El Niño into June. A super El Niño is inevitable at this point and very likely a top 3 super event

F the heat! It’s why I left Texas.

Finally ... a chart that agrees with your sentiment from earlier - nice !

I've been posting a lot in the Sports threads. I've kept pretty quiet here as I realize that what I want is a lot different than most of you now that the winter crowd has left. I don't want to bring the group down by posting how great I feel every day it's cloudy, cool and damp or just cooler than normal. The older I get the more I despise the heat. It is the only reason my wife and I continue to live in PA. Otherwise we'd be living on the gulf coast of Florida.

0.3", feels like I need to build an Ark to handle so much rain.

Good agreement now

Yeah I know I’ve seen like 3-6” overnight without the ASOS going below 2sm -SN in deep snow growth layer orographic snows. Big arms of dendrites hooking together. Honestly the late January storm yielded like 10” overnight of mid-level fluff at like 1.5”/hr in 3/4sm visibility. Meanwhile the flip side is you get the SWFE poor snow growth needles in a 6-hr QPF dump and struggling to 1.2”/hr snowfall but at M1/4, ha.

So is the cold pool off our coast a result of this past seasonably cold winter, of more of a stronger Labrador current? Or perhaps upwelling?

Goes either way ... I've seen it snow 30 straight hours at 3/4-1.5sm -S and end up with 3" of cobwebs you could move with the broom. Does that a lot around the Lakes in very frigid air...etc. I've also see that analysis be 6" overnight. Heh, it would be funny if not actually more practical to have qualifiers rmks in there like "3/4-1.5sm -S meaningless mood", or "3/4-1.5sm -S Ineedsnow trigger flake size", or "3/4-1.5sm -S; 30 hr tortoise event" etc

Just got home, .45 in the bucket! I feel like I just won MegaMillions!

WB 12Z EURO for midweek rain.
