It lasts a few days. Summer is the best season. Winter is slowly dying. We summer. We hop on the bandwagon.

Wind? Some big boomers down there.

Nice light show snd thunder last night knocked out power. 0.44" Sent from my SM-S921U using Tapatalk

Ya the pollen is bad now.. even had to use my windshield washer fluid this morning before leaving.. but everyone just loves summer

The NJ warm spots away from the sea breeze are tied for the most 90° days by June 6th.

NAM tries to bring a few storms across our region this afternoon. Looks like slim pickings but it's a chance.

A busy hazards week across the country

74F/ gusty, pollen everywhere......

Another round of 90 degree days on the way later this week - does anyone have stats on the record number of 90 degree days anywhere in the metro prior to the official first day of summer for a given year ?

pretty wild storm while camping at Nickerson St Park last night.

The sparking lines/transformers and smoke emanating from the grid across several blocks in Maspeth, Queens, during yesterdays severe weather. Through the night we had distress calls to 911 from downed lines, and/or those catching fire. The hazard can be seen toward the end of the clip looking north/west. Popping can be heard and smoke is evident in the last seconds before ending recording to call 911. FDNY later responded. I corrected the camera orientation in the second clip after several seconds. EDIT: I have wind chimes heard through the recording.

Similar recent theme of the wind gusts being more impressive than the actual rainfall amounts. Another very warm with below average rainfall pattern coming up this week. Hopefully, the models are correct about the wetter pattern with the Great Lakes trough during week 2 approaching the summer solstice.

This ended up knocking out our power for 3 to 4 hours last evening. We got about 3/4 inch of welcomed rain and constant thunder for about 45 minutes. It passed just to our north so nothing too strong. Some good gusts.

Yeah there was another downpour here around midnight. Ended up with 0.15" for the day. Was expecting nothing ofc.

Quick clap of thunder and downpour after midnight last night.

Got lucky enough to get alittle over 1/2”….enough to not have to water the plants today i guess. Wind was impressive tho, branches down everywhere.

Something came through patio chairs down. Didn't wake me.

If anyone is looking to move to southern MD (or knows someone who is), send me a PM. Our previous home in Prince Frederick is still for sale… it’s been a much slower market down there than anyone expected (including our realtor).

.28 yesterday with some gusty winds as it came through, lots of small branch's and leaves down in my yard. A number of trees down close by though. The power flickered but didn't go out thankfully.

0.02” yesterday separated between two 0.01” showers.

0.21” here. One rumble of thunder

As expected. Never had a chance here. Probably didn’t even rain. Doubt we get anything today. Stein is here. Can put lawn mower away.

I can't believe a couple showers actually made it into the dried up lowlands during the night. It looks like it didn't amount to much but it's something.

The signal looks real with a CAG looking to develop and the EPAC starting to light up, but the AI ensembles not being as robust still gives me pause. Either way, another interesting aspect here is the models all showing the potential for tropical moisture to get carried into at least the southeastern U.S. as a ridge flexes in the western Atlantic and a trough tries to sweep eastward from the central U.S., creating a near ideal conveyor belt for moisture transport. That’s something to watch in its own right, and why I’m a little skeptical of the euro operational burying whatever seedling there is in the Bay of Campeche.
