Scary heat

I remember being in 6th period newspaper and itching to go home (I lived right through the woods). Literally sprinted (also had to take a leak because the bathrooms at school sucked LOL) and made it home with just enough time to track the line rolling in. I remember seeing tons of tree debris flying through the air. As bad as 6/4/2008 was - I think it was outclassed by the 2012 derecho pretty easily.

Wagons NNE

It actually feels hot. I'm wearing shorts too...short sleeved shirt and shorts. I'd actually probably be dying if I was wearing jeans.

17 years ago.

Weekend looks good here. 80 or more each day on Euro.

The smoke put a damper on temps out here, thankfully it's clearing out now. High of only 75 at ISP so far, actually cooler than yesterday's high of 77.

Up to 86/52 now. Really nice heater out there.

alright ..it's a little warm. not quite 'hot' per se, but please don't sit so close to me warm

I had a cape before this house-impossible to get cool air upstairs and the roofline was right there-no attic...terrible.

If we can see it start to dip into negative around 50mb this will be a good sign of an overall weaker SPV no guarantees of anything other than probably not the near record levels we just saw. A lot of things still need to come together over the next few months. Still have yet to see a tropical system in the WPAC beat out last year but looking further into data it seems like the 8th of June is the latest for tropical storm and typhoon is the 21st.

My current house is from 1985 and doesn't have it, but my neighbors does. I'm jealous. Like Brian said, it was perfect to put on for like 30 minutes during evenings like yesterday. The breeze it created was awesome too. My old house being a split level with the bedrooms on top level and the a/c unit pushing air from the basement that was pretty much 4 levels down was useless. Up to 86 here

Obsolete-most of those are being torn down here and replaced with bigger homes

85 and a tad hazy. Hopefully lawn and plants can fully take in this sun and warmth for a while.

My house is from the 50s and it doesn't have jack sht lol

88 here

I found this going back a little further. From 1854-1896, that phase seemed overall cool I would say even though the chart doesn't outline that. So maybe this cool phase could last even longer? Hope not though! https://www.daculaweather.com/4_pdo_index.php This is pretty cool link for pdo as well.

Funny thing is that I thought it was worse 2-3 years ago and then wasn’t as bad last year during the dry heat season.

Mini split installs the next two days here.

was probably an add on you could select when the house was being built....we are probably one of the few that still use it-but I don't like to turn on the AC unless it's needed-like the fresh air better but when it's HHH it goes on.

My old house was from the late 70s, I think 77, and had it. It seems like all the split level homes in the neighborhood had it, but the bi-levels, colonials and ranches didn't.

1982 - A four day storm began over New England which produced up to 14 inches of rain in southern Connecticut breaching twenty-three dams and breaking two others. Damage was estimated at more than 276 million dollars. (David Ludlum) 1988 - A dozen cities in the eastern U.S. reported record low temp- eratures for the date, including Atlantic City NJ with a reading of 40 degrees. Fifteen cities in the north central U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date, including Glasgow MT and Havre MT with readings of 102 degrees. (The National Weather Summary) wow a 4 day storm in June 1982-- a few months after the historic April 1982 cold blizzard !! By the way this wasn't just a 4 day storm for New England, it was also for NYC and Long Island! I wonder how much rain fell here.... 14 inches of rain in Southern CT sounds like a lot of rain here too!! And it was 40 degrees at ACY on this date in 1988.... that must be the latest it's ever been 40 degrees there? 2 years ago history repeated itself and we were in the 40s here too! JFK: 49 (2023)

Exactly...my house was built in 1973 and originally had no AC. It's loud but you turn it on and open some windows and the cool air comes rushing in-leave it on for 30 minutes after the sun goes down.

100x zoom. I'm not a camera expert. Thought that is what you meant.

Probably was the "modern convenience" in late 1950s-60s before ACs took over?
