86mph at a home site just east of the lighthouse. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KCTEASTH275

must have been a super localized gust. Actually further looking at the radar, I wonder if there may have been a brief TOR?

Around 130 EDT Only 37mph at HVN right next door.

yeah I just edited my post for the time. Meant to convert from Z but forgot

Think the worst of it was from 1-2am no? Another storm came through at 5ish but I thought that one was weaker. At least I was able to sleep through that one lol

Apologies if it's just outside of this region, but some pretty impressive hail reports yesterday in Binghamton. Several reports up to 3". Mark Tarello - WOW! Golfball to egg size hail from severe... | Facebook

wonder what time that was. This is a scan from 1:25 AM

Eastern tip of Long Island got quite a bit of rain last night. Reminds me of that one snowstorm last winter where they got like 10” out there with barely a flurry in babylon

HOLY SHIT.

Gotta get you some rain up there.

103 mile per hour wind gust in New Haven! https://x.com/ryanhanrahan/status/2087905696947884069?s=46

Some echoes passed overhead but nothing reached the ground. 1.83" this month so far, a bit AN.

Since I'm always optimistic as there's nothing to lose enjoying the hobby, I'll remain in the open instead of ducking for cover. Lol

It's coming lol I'm telling you, he's going to shred this optimism like a ninja with absolute surgical precision.

Leave him alone. He likes that corner of the room and the wall feels good on his head.

Larry is feeln' it- Dude needs a Bluewave intervention, and pronto He'll slap you across the face with a series of JMA VP images.

WB's JB snow forecast: DC 15- 20 Slightly above normal

Not only have the last 5 Jamstec runs had cold and the coldest on the globe on land in the E US for winter, the 2023-4 winter forecast made in August was much warmer with it NN (see below). Also, this NN DJF forecast made in August of 2023 had been the coldest DJF made by Jamstec in August back to when the current records go back to, which is August of 2017! So, the following for 23-24 and today’s for 26-7 are the two coldest August runs for DJF: @bluewave

Have gotten 0.0" this week. Back to drought it looks like. Can't ever remember a summer like this where we flip back and forth from weeks of dry broken up by flooding rains then back to weeks of dry.

Congrats Brian. Nice lightshow to my south early this morning. Between a shower yesterday and a light shower as the storm passed to my south a big .17"!

What I mean by exaggerated is with respect to the DJF mean pattern...it's probably going to be too cold in December, and while that DJF mean map may very well be representative of one month (February), it's highly likely to be overly reflected in the DJF mean on the model.

.67" last night from the few rounds of storms. I was just south of the worst by 2 miles or so. Just a little wind but torrential rain and very loud thunder. @hudsonvalley21 was definitely in the brunt of the storm.

The cold dominating a large portion of the E US and it being the coldest land area on the entire globe goes all the way back to the first Jamstec run with DJF, April! April: May: June: July: Aug:

Breaking the July 1936 record was mostly a function of the much warmer minimum temperatures this year. This July was only the 6th warmest for maximum temperatures behind 1936. But it was the warmest July for minimum temperatures. So the average of the two put this year in 1st place. Much higher dewpoints these days due to the warmer overall global temperatures which holds more moisture. So the low temperatures can’t drop as low. Plus the record corn production adds to the dewpoints and warmer minimums in the areas which experienced the worst of the Dust Bowl in the Plains. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2026/07/27/one-of-the-muggiest-days-on-record-for-the-twin-cities The highest dew point ever observed in the Twin Cities remains 82 degrees, recorded on July 19, 2011. That event still stands as the local benchmark for tropical humidity. Across Minnesota, the state record is even more astonishing. In Moorhead, the dew point climbed to an incredible 88 degrees during the 2011 heat wave. That combination of extreme heat and moisture pushed the heat index above 130 degrees. Only a handful of years have ever produced 80-degree dew points in the Twin Cities: 1966 1983 1995 1999 2002 2005 2011 2026 With six more hours added to the record books today, 2026 has secured its place alongside some of Minnesota's most memorable humidity events. While air temperatures often get the headlines, dew point is what determines just how oppressive the air feels — and an 80-degree dew point is about as uncomfortable as it gets in the Upper Midwest.
