With a goal to get down to the Cape and me moving into a state of retirement/semi-retirement, we decided to sell Westborough and rent in Providence (where my wife works) for a year. The house in Westborough just went on the market, so I need to keep up with that lawn until it goes under contract.

Time ran out in late Napril for those whacked few hold outs

Those storms are going to explode when the cap breaks

Too bad no vort coming through

Except that it takes 5 minutes to install a window unit, close the doors, and turn it on... So oh my god, t-minus whatever days:hrs:seconds to the crushing reality of 5 minutes of effort I guess ... lol

I feel like it's a Tuesday and Wednesday deal for the real hot stuff. Thursday may introduce a seabreeze and relegate the big heat inland. But by then heights fall and the tprchy 850s are gone...albeit still very warm. We are in a warm pattern coming up.

No way ...

Those that didn't install are going to be in deep, deep trouble. Time is running out folks. Once this heat/humidity comes it isn't going away for quite some time. You've been warned

Hang in there. I'm sure we'll eventually get the background state that we got in late 2013 until the super el nino ended in early/mid-2016. The -PDO streak can't last the entire decade, right?

Yeah infrastructure is not really political, I think everyone agrees that needs to change. Let's get the grid conversation now because in a few days none of us might have power to do it then lol.

1991 had a much hotter spring at least for us. We just don't get that kind of weather anymore especially in May.

It was mixing out a little more in the afternoons, but yeah…mid level temps were a hair cooler. I just thought it was more impressive in duration

The grid conversation was kind of on topic I think, it is directly related to the record heat we are anticipating. Trust me I'd much rather talk about mist and clouds than 108 degrees lol

Yeah, we got a relaxation of the warm spring pattern for a time heading into late May here. Some spots had record highs here earlier this month for a day. But anytime we see all-time record heat like International Falls got back in May, it gives us a preview of what is possible as we approach the summer solstice now. Overall for the CONUS this averaged out as the 2nd warmest spring. So any comfortable temperatures that we have been getting recently is a real gift against such a warm background state.

Not often I wake up to early morning hail storms in Colorado. Had a few at 1.5" or so, maybe bigger since it was a little bit before I could get outside to measure them.

Wait, where is the third lawn? Did you get a new pit?

Please move the political/bickering stuff somewhere else.

Yeah---really surprised. Looks pretty dry along/north of the Pike so I might still be able to mow Westborough. Having 3 lawns to take care of kind of sucks.

I start watching my digital thermometer and start doing a countdown as soon as it reaches 99.0 lol

.03” sometime in the early morning hours. Have the cloud mist again this morning. The sinus suffers in the house, which includes me, have not have the easiest of times these last two days.

100 degree's is not exciting as 20 inches of snow, no f'ing way!!!! LOL

That's the real problem. And why is it going to cost so much? Prices are inflated here.
