the ridge doesn't care. crank up the ac

This was either overzealous inexperience or pattern recognition denial OR, the models Now are lousy in summer with precipitation movements and location like they are in winter . i could have issued a damp street warning and been far more accurate

I will not miss the 3km NAM when it goes away later this summer. It almost always overdoes QPF, esp. when orographics are involved. Its fcst sim radar leaves a lot to be desired as well.

Hopefully it’s a front loaded summer. Going on a bread, milk and eggs run today. I don’t plan on leaving the house after Tuesday.

Sea breeze always wins out along the coast with this heat. Upper 80s will feel fantastic next week and the weekend. Ocean temps finally warmed to where I can tolerate it without a wetsuit.

Yup

Steady light to moderate rain. Not a downpour so it’s soaking well into the ground.

Not one but two traces yesterday. June rainfall stays around 1.80"

All the high temps on next weeks maps crashed the servers

It’s early but it’s fair to say as of right now things don’t look good given what is going on with the El Niño.

Closing in on 6 inches of rain since yesterday now, with it still coming down pretty good right now. Only an occasional rumble of thunder.

I'm not the biggest fan of snow (used to be) - CoastalWx ready to cancel me for saying that! - but, out of season events I think are DA BOMB! The flakes in the air at the end of last month in MA was a sight to see. I've actually had dreams recently about snow falling in June in ern MA.

Why are the CAMs often bad with the lasting power and southward extent of an MCS like the one moving across Iowa this morning. Even as they rerun every 1-3 hours, they just can't see the south half of the line and keep trying to crap it out too quickly.

I was thinking of doing a heatwave contest but then that might jinx it

The best I’ve had was telling someone over the phone their password needed to contain a special character and they did “specialcharacter1” …

Same. This thing has been hyped so much that we almost need it to verify to save face.

I’ll take the under on 100s - one day the streak will break but I’ll just assume we can’t do it til we can.

Not only that, but 2/5-6/2010 was probably undercounted too. That was when LWX realized the FAA contractors weren’t measuring every 6 hours at BWI and had to derive an estimate using the 24-hour measurement.

What a wacky radar. Little bit disappointed I’m not in the center of it.

I have had that happen to me before. On the phone w/ a wx client, and I said "hit enter" and they *typed* the word "enter!" Another time I said, "where are you?" referencing where on the menu, the person said "Columbus OH!" LOL. My favorite is telling them to reboot the PC, and they just reboot the *monitor*!

0.28 for the event..... One of the lower totals of the surrounding area... Periodic drizzle this morning...

Too hot. Nobody needs 105. Dangerous for all.

Progression of actual weather still looks pretty different to 2023. That was a very cold month in the Southwest. It's been fairly warm this June v. averages. Europe had a few major heat waves with the recent El Ninos - 2015, 2018, 2023 all had them I believe.
