Dew point just briefly dipped to 49 at Dulles. Riddance of Hell Heat is wonderful Don’t spend the entire day with too much body heat. Damn sweat would not evaporate and nearly boiled

Yeah drought guy will be making an appearance by next weekend. Long range pattern looking dry barring any tropical systems. This week should be beautiful.

That is absolutely wild. Only .11” over here!

Maybe you guys dont have them up north...yet. I'm referring to these... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vespula_germanica They are the most aggressive wasps out there. I work with people form Mexico, Peru, Ecuador, etc. They claim afrancinzed bees are tame compared to them...

Antarctica like?

Thanks. No, I don't have a boat. Perhaps when I retire, I'll get one.

On the Pike heading towards CT. From our house to here the smoke has been pretty thick. You can smell it at times.

GFS takes a weak tropical storm over the Cape.. If we can keep that off the coast it could be fun

After the prior 3 full UKMET runs showed an MDR TD this week per their textual output, the last 2 runs for the record haven’t had it fwiw. The last two runs instead develop it well north of the MDR. This is from the latest (12Z): NEW TROPICAL CYCLONE FORECAST TO DEVELOP AFTER 156 HOURS FORECAST POSITION AT T+156 : 30.8N 50.0W LEAD CENTRAL MAXIMUM WIND VERIFYING TIME TIME POSITION PRESSURE (MB) SPEED (KNOTS) -------------- ---- -------- ------------- ------------- 0000UTC 10.08.2025 156 30.8N 50.0W 1016 27 1200UTC 10.08.2025 168 34.2N 49.9W 1016 28

it mixes the smoke to the surface away from the sea breeze

See above added Morgantown and Hopewell....the stations analyzed are now only 34 feet higher on average than in the 1970's

Hazy here.

HRRR says smoke should rotate down into our area tomorrow. Shouldn’t be bad near the surface but enough to make it hazy.

I'm not a fan either, had a nest behind a shutter when I went to take the shutter off to paint i got nailed, mostly arms and hands got stung.

I get 339' in 1970: Phoenixville- 105, Coatesville 1SW - 342, Devault - 360, West Chester - 440, West Grove - 449.

I got an inch and a half of rain overnight. Crazy! Was not expecting that. Cool and cloudy right now. .

Low of 56. Now 79/57, spectacular day for shopping at the farmers market.

Eastern yellow jackets are totally native. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_yellowjacket

Constant comping. This is what happens when you have low dews. I’ve noticed a lot of aggression…lots of anger, both here and in the world. Parents aggressively pushing strollers, kids screaming and yelling, dogs barking, birds violently poooping on cars. Low dews just makes everyone in a terrible mood.

We lied to the kids and told them we were out of marshmallows bc it was late and they were breaking down and we didn’t want to deal with the mess, yada yada. Anyway, it reminded me of this tweet I saw one time that cracked me up, went something to the effect of: ”Me before having kids: I will never lie to my children. Me today: They don’t sell hotdogs in Colorado.”

I know you probably know this but they aren't native to New England or even the US and I have zero issues nuking their nests. I do home improvement work and they are our worst nightmare when you disturb a nest. I'm going to try and find the picture where I got stung in the face after ripping out a window sill they nested in. Took like a dozen plus stings to my face. Couldn't see out of my eyes or even eat for like 3 days.

Didn’t someone from CT say Arctic blue skies like an hour ago?

Easily the best weather weekend of the summer!

Where's there's smoke, There's more smoke.
