  1. Past hour
  2. Can we say UHI contamination? Yes we can. In your own Chesco analysis. Well documented in the previous 8 pages. Your network changes from town to predominantly rural and you don't remove the station changes. You have Chester County as warm as the Philadelphia airport (PHL) in the early 1940s. How ridiculous is that. When you compare the Philadelphia airport to Chesco stations with a consistent set of measurement conditions, the Chesco stations and the airport both show significant warming. Since 1948, Coatesville has warmed by 3.8F vs 4.8F at the Philadelphia airport. Since 2007 both the Avondale USCRN station and the airport have warmed by over 1F per decade. The charts below show that the Philadelphia airport does a much better job of matching individual Chesco station data than you do.
  3. Some much needed rainfall spreading into parts of northeastern Ohio. A number of locations have seen very little rainfall this month, with 0.18" at Burke Lakefront Airport, 0.21" at Akron Fulton International Airport, 0.50" at New Philadelphia Clever Field. Even the cooperative observer in Chardon has reported only 0.52" for the month, typically one of the wettest spots in northeast Ohio. Cleveland Hopkins International Airport and nearby Elyria - Lorain County Airport have picked up 0.79", while Ashtabula County Airport has seen 0.81".
  4. I was thinking the same thing. Must have been the wind.
  5. In my very limited forays into that political sewer there was plenty of triggered intolerant nasty personal attacks from some seriously deranged jackazzez. And yeah, you know who they are.
  6. with this evening's frontal boundary convection almost done working through, I picked up 1.02" of rain since 7:30pm, skyrocketing my July total precip to 2.70". all in all a very unpleasant day to be outside. hit 97.7° this afternoon, the highest temp of the month. now i'll have to mow the lawn, dammit.
  7. Can someone give you a ride? Doesn't look like they have transportation.
  8. Maybe we start to get some better surfing waves by the mid to third week of August, not too crazy please, but maybe just enough to make if more interesting.
  9. Quite the change from the 1980's, when he quit touring because of serious health issues (etc). He looks far heathier than say, 1985. One of my favorite drummers!

  11. Ill take cromartie. Hes always easy to instant ban. Tcc posts climate stats which many of us here do as well, minus the nonsense. Plus we post all weather stats, not just one kind. Basically hes enough to annoy everybody but not be banned. Cromartie always gets instantly banned so he usually tires of making new accounts.
  12. I do not have a backyard thermometer. I usually run similar to DTW. It was probably 95 or so. The hottest my phone said was 94. No way was it 98, you know as usual that many amateur thermometers run high, just as dewpoints on non calibrated awos often run high in humidity. The high at DTW marks the 316th time since records began in 1874 that Detroit officially hit 95+. A well advertised hot and humid day, not sure id go with "very impressive". Only missed the record by 10°. To be honest, the way they talked about dewpoints i expected worse. Peak HI was 103. 95 and humid is "very impressive" but 105 with low humidity doesn't require AC? Hmm
  13. Well guys and gals... it finally happened... I was mowing the lawn this morning when I saw it. My first lantern fly sighting. All red-eyed and looking straight at me while trembling. I tried stomping it but it was on the tall soft grass so it was fine. A minute later I see one again. I don't know whether it was the same one but it flew onto a small tree trunk just out of my reach. About 30-40 minutes later I'm out mowing the front yard (the first sightings were IMBY) when a third lantern flew onto the tree trunk next to me... it zipped out from under my shoe in the nick of time like in an action movie and flew into the grass a few clicks away. ... Yes... I could've just said that I saw three lantern flies today and left it at that but I'm more of a storyteller. ANYWAYS seeing that I'm in obs... currently 81/68 at IAD.
  14. Today
  15. I had the other reaction today… maybe I braced myself for the worse. But heading outside late afternoon/early evening with a good breeze didn’t have that humid “bite” I was expecting. Now we are back to the dead calm humid stagnant air once the sun went down.
  16. My condolences, he was a huge contributor to this forum.
  17. Every run that WAR gets more and more expansive for Aug . Literally like the 5th right thru end of month. That’s going to be a wildly humid stretch overall
  18. Today during peak mixing it felt drier than it should have for dews in the mid-60s. Maybe it was the healthy breeze? It was hot as hell though. This evening is damn dewy as soon as we went calm and decoupled. Went from 64-65 to 68-69. As soon as the air stopped moving, it got noticeably more humid.
  19. Perfect summer weather out there. Bottle 'er up, it's going bye bye
  20. Something happened there. It really only stands out on the hottest days and on the maxes it seems?
