I love how a certified weather spotter is a thing. You take a two hour class and you're given a speech. Here's your diploma!

Not sure if this has been seen, they're doing another show about Tornado Chasing and some of these kids are probably going to get killed. Season 1 for the 2025 season, zero fatalities. Randomly crossed it in my Amazon Prime account. In the Eye of the Storm: Chasers (TV Series 2026– ) - IMDb

0.25" from a robust but quick a moving cell. 1.50" for the week and month.

The chart implies that the mix of stations is different depending on the year. Changing mix, alone, means one is not consistently calculating the same mean across time.

I mean, ball kind of don’t lie. Ponds and streams are easily the lowest I’ve seen them in my area in the 7 years I’ve been where I’m at.

Amazing with Sandy, we couldnt get gas in city. Drove up 95 and crossed into CT. First exit, gas for everyone. That really opened my eyes to the disfunction and regulation of the NY government…even in a crisis.

Certainly solve the problem. I'd have a coronary before I got too hot

Looking at that heatwave I happened to look at the normals out there this time of year. Salt Lake City averages 93° and Denver 90° on July 10. That’s as warm as Miami (90°)!

I hope it snows tomorrow.

Haven’t had many wins like this one this year so I’m making an old fashioned.

We had a snow in December 1982 too 7-10 inches but like cape about 82/83 ir didn’t stay on the ground long. That storm came on a Saturday night and was supposed to stay south. Was a big surprise,

0.8”, 1.6” over the last two days.

Again it looks like a nice thunderstorm pattern.

I feel like we’ve said this a bunch lately

PDO was positive in 82-83 It was a +AO Winter however. A few things that I look at in the warm season, posted earlier in the thread are going toward more -AO this coming Winter. So that's a plus.

Sounds like you need to go above 7,500ft…. Get as high as possible.

And they did, barely. Had some nice lightning and loud thunder. Ended up with .34". Nice considering we only had a 10% chance of rain.This puts me at 1.76" for the week and month.

Headed out to the Tetons for some hiking. I think I'm just going to sit my ass in the Snake River. Mother fuc...

0.67” at DCA. 0.20” at home. Nice refresher.

The norm here. Stopped paying attention to the WPC/local NWS hype for heavy rain. The time will come but it isnt now.

Sorry about the shed, that sucks.

If I had to guess our horrible lapse rates are doing something. We are sitting around 5.5 ml lapse rates which nearly puts us to a stable atmosphere.

Not surprised they took the numbers down. You can already see how hostile things are out there as a whole and with an intensifying Nino things aren't likely to change. That said, as we get closer to the climatological peak there will be windows that open, probably say out in the subtropics, closer to the U.S. in the central/northern Gulf and SE coast where a front gets hung up, or later in the peak season where CAG season opens up again in the NW Caribbean and Gulf. Other than that it may be historically hostile in the tropical Atlantic even though the peak.

You have to be concerned. Drygust and Steintember to get through

Saturday 2% seems about right. Modest flow is forecast in the upper levels. It's not really backed, but a cooking outflow boundary can take care of the low levels. See how much sun comes out between rounds. Otherwise, summer clusters with some organization and straight wind seems reasonable.
