Plenty of low temperatures in the 50's this morning with the Warwick DEOS our usual chilly spot at 51.8 degrees. One of the best stretches of weather we have seen in quite a while is underway. Below normal temperatures ranging from the upper 70's to low 80's with lows in the 50's to near 60 degrees through the weekend and into the start of next week. Next chances of any showers looks to be Monday night.

To me at least the cold never feels as harsh in February as it does in December or January. Especially once to mid February the increasing sun angle just helps make it not feel so bad. By mid February just by looking out the window you can tell winter is on the run. Mid February = Mid August

The 18 inch Jan 1999 storm in N Indiana will always be the storm I remember. I was only 10 at the time but it solidified my love for snow, and weather in general for that matter. I will never forget as the storm ramped up, a milk truck from the dairy farm I lived on getting stuck in our driveway as it was trying to turn around because the road west was already drifted shut, and my dad using shingles under the tires to give it some traction and get it moving again before it could become permanently stuck for days. Since then, I have seen my fair share of storms, many in excess of 3 feet, but none have made the lasting impression that Jan 99 did. It was a storm that set in motion the direction my life would take.

I remember driving from Tucson to Phoenix many years ago and seeing lightning from the top of the storm clouds.. It was awe inspiring. You would never get a view like that at sea level around here.

I can't seem to tolerate "extremes" on either side of the calendar anymore. Cold always bothered me, but now summer heat and humidity does as well. I probably should move to San Diego.

Driving back and forth over the Blue Mountain multiple times per day, it's easy to see the haves and have nots just by looking at the lawns on either side. Green in Schuylkill County and brown in Lehigh County.

Sunny, 73/59 with a breeze in late July! Meanwhile in NC with more to come yikes

Only .25" yesterday. Models don't seem too excited about today either.

Yeah it seems there was some internal rot but showed no exterior signs. Always looked very healthy and put off lots of new growth. I will say it was a leaner. From the moment we moved into this house I knew it could eventually go, despite its massive size and healthy appearance. The lean was in a direction away from the house so we never worried about it too much and luckily it played out that way.

August to me is like February in the sense that you're still in the thick of the cold/heat even though averages technically start lowering as we get into August.

Rolling bro!

Rain, rain, and more rain. Much needed.

Looks like 80's with off n on rain chances over the next few days. Typical summer wx. Cool down was nice tho. Really helped with the fire situation up N, too.

Would think the Nino will help out west this fall/winter

Still have a ways to go to reverse this long term drought. Some areas saw small improvement. But the heaviest downpours were more localized which is common with convection.

EF0 confirmed at Cape May Point plus info on 3 other tornadoes that day - As an OBS, I bottomed out at 63 this morning and it's currently a sunny 75 with dp a refreshing 58.

And I thought that seeing lightning in Rangeley while driving on US 1 in Searsport (100 miles apart) was amazing, but it was small potatoes compared to that.

65 with a northeast breeze 5 - 15. Feels like fall! Spruce Knob, 46.

The real fun was about 15 miles to our northeast i n Somerset County. We had a quick 0.20" 1:15-1:25 PM and with the 0.49" overnight, the garden was nicely watered (though July remains BN thru today).

Was it rotted?

Getting a heavy downpour with thunder in west AVL

Any major tornado event from the 50s-70s Blizzard of 78 but not in Detroit.

Meh... this summer appears hell-bent on wasting all the solar max in a flat trough with no or only brief heat penetration N of the Mason Dixie. If Mr BAM's heat/ridge and all that does manifest after the 10th of August, it's more likely the meridian flow up the EC/'Bahama Blue' type. That's not mid 90s/70 ...more like 86/78 In which case the Atlantic MDR will deliver 0 anything while that is happening so stop typing that. And the "heat" is more expressed in a high DP that is getting warmed by a seasonally transitioning solar/dimmer sun. It would all just be more black mold and lone star tick migration type, incredulous because it's slow moving and therefore not directly observable CC apocalypse shit than anything else.

I know we're all different and we like/love/react to things very differently. I can't imagine turning on any type of heat source in July. Ever. Or in August. Or in September. MAYBE by late October...MAYBE...
