Watch up for NH actually ... some minoring threat probably subtends down into our neighborhood.

Seems like board probkems persist, or just me? Up to 83 here some breaks in the clouds with the sun pushing up temps.

storm popping up to the west.. might have to chase if it gets it act together soon

Everything you've said to me to date has been demonstratively high-handed corrective and/or instructive in content, neither of which was or is necessary. "YOU'RE" is because the cap-lock was on and I did not see it - not helping that the site is stalling every once in a while. "Tough cookies" is perfectly fine - it means...no one is going to really care accept you about hype ( that no one really takes seriously anyway? ) which is endemic to the environment you both choose to be a part, and are not going to change. You need to chill

Today was another day of crushing inescapable heat in much of Europe. Saarbrücken, Germany (41.3C/106.3F) and Basel, Switzerland (38.8C/101.8F) set new national all-time heat records. Locations in France also set additional all-time records. Santon Downham (37.3C/99.1F) set a national UK June record.

I assume you are being facetious. As I said, debate/discussion is what the forum is all about on a fundamental level.

Me, whenever AmWx mets draw knives on each other.

this webcam in Rutland VT should be wild soon https://vermontcam.com/rutland-vt-weather-cams/

It’s been awful. It got better this morning, but got bad again this afternoon. The last few days have been worst I’ve seen since joining in 2010! @Wow

One should avoid typing any word in all caps in a civil discussion/debate on social media. It is unprofessional and just promotes conflict. "Not to me anyway?" No one is above criticism, no one. Debate/discussion is how science advances. You really think one can post on a forum like this and not get criticism at times? And criticism is often thought as always negative. It is not, not when it done reasonably and w/ civility. Silencing debate/discussion or making oneself immune/above itall is not a good thing. What you seem to be overlooking is that very fact that is criticism and debate are a good thing overall b/c many read the posts, and can learn something from what is said. Not epiphanies or anything like that, but wx tidbits/info they can take in and absorb, and also can see a productive way to debate/discuss and the way *not* to do it. Not everyone here is an expert meteorologist. Some are up and coming mets and still learning, some are wx enthusiasts, and everything in-between. One needs to consider all members of the forum here.

Was hoping we’d get beneficial rain this weekend up here. I bet most see less than .10”.

For about 4 hours earlier in the day things were moving along at click-speed. Then all at once it was as though a switch happened. Likely AM's traffic is routing through a device with mem consumption issue when there is load-balance switch at their ISP. Which they either don't know is occurring ( unlikely...), or do and are working on fixing it without telling - else they are liable and owe ...so they're douchy heh

Hoping all the garden and yard work I just did lets Mother Nature give me some good soaking rain. I watered all the grass seed I put down but would like some help with that.

*FIGHT* *FIGHT* *FIGHT* need @Masswx to bring some maturity to this board !!!

Happy birthday, @stormtracker! Appreciate you and miss you when you're...checks google...estivating.

YOU'RE unnecessarily critiquing. Don't Not to me anyway

That's so "FETCH!" What decade are you living in?

I never contested no decent heat, just I think and we see this a lot, the hype alone about a hot period coming up or any inclement wx, all too often takes on a life of it own, and many, included some on this forum, get caught up in the social media hype and mode, and that skews their objectively, as in "I called it first!" or one makes it into more of a deal than it really is. And you'd think it like it never can get hot here, or anywhere else for that matter, and it's end of days. What planet are these ppl living on? It would be highly atypical not to have bouts of well above avg temps anywhere on the globe over time. And I don't want to here about the climate change factor. Forget that factor for a min, and just look at wx history and what has happen before, and how fundamentally the Earth works for heat balance/distribution. That is what is being demonized and hype, the normal order of things - "OMG, impactful/stormy wx is occurring -- PANIC!" The above all rolls back into our perception of things, how we treat/handle it all, and zeitgeist. Things like this need to be said at times b/c ppl often forget, caught up on the social media frenzy. How we view/handle/discuss issues/things in general are just as important as the issues/things themselves.

That storm cluster looks decent and better than guidance had at this time

Pablo Sandoval ran faster than the board has this week

Last few days or a week or so - have been seeing pretty frequent Cloudflare "Bad Gateway" 502 errors from the forum. Generally a refresh of the page loads it (albeit slowly). Anything going on?

Pretty Please! As always …… ( it took two tries to get the host error photo attached )

What about tough noogies?

Yep, the lag came back.

I was stating solid forecast concerns, that's all. And personally? No, debate/discussion is what this forum is all about. The content of your response by itself suggest you take it personally. How one goes from someone stating forecast concerns and caveats to "don't like the heat" is a non-sequitur argument. Mentioning fine details is not the same as nit-picking, and the details count in any science. You were mentioning how its looks good for sig heat at least from a 500 mb height position, but did not mention that 500 mb is not always a good proxy for sfc temps. "that 00z operational Euro run fully committed to a heat wave later next week .. LOL At least at 500 mb..." So I pointed out the omission. This is of value for others on the board, is it not? It is fact CPC and others often just look at 500 height anomalies, and run w/ temps based on that alone. And "tough cookies?" What kind of statement is that in a serious meteorological discussion? Don't degrade a discussion/debate w/ drivel phrases/terminology like that.
