I just thought the same. What an awful day. -
I think it's pretty clear that the wildfire smoke was the main culprit for thunderstorm activity not occurring over Maine as it suppressed instability to an extent and created and maintained a mid-level cap. Doesn't seem like modeling picked up on that at all. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the lack of storms in Maine also meant that the environment S and W was untapped and contributed to overperformance farther south in NY, VT, and NH. The forcing was clearly there and this was close to being a much more destructive event. I think we got pretty lucky all things considered but numerous severe reports in this region doesn't constitute a total "bust" IMO. -
Wow, that is surreal. Wonder what code that gets? Code orange here today and tomorrow.
-
Currently 92 here. Probably makes it to 95 then we’ll see how much smoke holds temp down.
-
Definitely starting to brighten. Breeze is picking up too as dews drop. Love the smoke. Hopefully we get more days of this. -
Except for the band that just crossed LI and SW CT the smoke aloft is mostly thinner than yesterday so many places are warmer than this time on Tuesday. Also more favorable downslope. Yesterday the lack of surface heating kept winds down somewhat and even allowed LGA to stay more 210-230 most of the day.

I don’t care or see the big deal either way.

90/101

Yeah, the additional clouds aren't helping, but man it's dark out. -
Wow, it looks like 8:30 pm out there. There's a weird "solar eclipse" vibe about it where things don't quite seem right. The air definitely has a heaviness to it. I don't smell smoke, but my mouth kind of tastes weird. Was it mostly forest that burned up there, or did it hit a lot of manmade things that have who knows what in them? -
92 here right now.

I can smell the smoke but don't really see it yet

Took 134 to the New Sharon Dunkin Donuts a few times this week. Hard to beat the views as far as a quick car ride is concerned. Taking the kids to hike Bald Mountain Preserve in Camden tomorrow morning. Usually it's Bald Mountain or Mt Blue in Weld, but I'm out of hiking shape and we are looking to try something a bit different outside of the Kennebec Highlands trails near us. -
Smoke starting to filter in here in Suffolk as well. Temp has “dipped” down to 90.
-
Nice to see bluebird skies again. Smoke just to my south but blue to the north. The sun is back! Other than a few Cu the skies are clear! Unlike the smoke of a couple of years ago this smoke came on quick yesterday. -
Light smokey haze with a distinct smoke smell in jersey city
-
One can smell the smoke in the Bronx, as well, even as it's not as thick as that in Rhinebeck.
-
Not only Canada, the Boundary Waters area of northern MN has lightning-induced fires and they've closed the park for only the third time on record.
-
90 here 7 behind the hottest day Jul 1-4th so thinking we top out in the 97-99 range 100 south of the area.
-
Those are great books especially the Early American series. -
This isn’t the smoke I prefer to bathe myself in. -
Enough that you can blow a flat surface is see the ash blow away, and its visible falling too.
-
Let the hair hang down out of the confines of the pony-o ..and wave it around and wash the hair in the smoke -
WPC increased rainfall total

It is so thick here in Brattleboro that I can't even see the sun Sent from my SM-S176V using Tapatalk
