Everybody, have a good time. Chill. Please? Let's not attack each other or go into politics from any side. Carry on and stay cool! Literally and figuratively -

This snowflake just wrapped up day three of mulching in 100+ degree heat. Now about to head home, throw my catfish gear and bait in my truck and heading on down to lake Aldred to catch me some monster flatties on this old school true summer night. Living the snowflake lifestyle this weekend and loving it. -
That is one hell of a map. I would expect problems on a night like tonight, but JCP&L has the worst record of keeping lights on. They are always the highest outages measured by percentage of their total customers.

Thanks. I figured that. Heat index as a mainstream wx parameter is a relatively new (last 30 yr or so). They never talked about "feels like" temp much at all through the 1980s, local news or the NWS. We just heard, "it's not the heat, it the HUMIDITY!" Which is wrong factually. It's the "DEW POINT!" Period of record (POR) is paramount when talking wx records and historical context, something that often get ignored b/c it deflates the preferred narrative. Let me give an example. Last year, I saw a post one day something like 30 sites in TX set their all-time record high monthly temp (can't recall which month it was). In a vacuum, that was true. What they left out is since 2001, TX has added well over 100 AWOS METAR sites at airports across the state, and continues to add several each year. And many mesonet sites during this time as well, esp. in the TX PH and West TX. See the problem here? Period of record for many sites is very short, but they leave that detail out! Omission of facts is no different that lying IMHO.

Pfft didn't have AC until I was 15 -
And if you take a close look at that radar you can see what happened. I'm on the northern side of Piscataway, close to the border of South Plainfield. You see the heavier echoes to the east and west -- I'm in that narrow little area in between where you don't see the bright echoes. Somehow I got split and got only a couple hundreths of an inch of rain, lol. Very disappointing. But as I said, thankful that I didn't lose power. I hear a lot of sirens out there so obviously there is quite a bit of damage from the near 60mph wind gusts that we had ahead of the line.

2026 Spring/Summer Mountain Thread

My station made it to 90.5 this afternoon. As far as I can remember that's the first time I've ever recorded a high above 90 here at the house. Yesterday was 89.3. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk -

My pws recorded a 124 HI at the peak. My knee jerk reaction was “no way” because I don’t even live near the water, but after seeing many other obs recording extreme HI values, I started to think its legit. Usually when we break 100, we’d have some mixing to get our dews into the 60s, but they stayed in the 70s and we broke 100 anyway (except IAD)

It’s still 93 at 9 o’clock IMBY. Sun is down but it’s still steamy out there.

Well, that is one way to quickly cool things down! -
Not when it's double time and a half or more plus holiday pay. They'll definitely show up.

101.9 here.

Trees down everywhere in Clifton and Passaic. Driving through the Athenia section of Clifton is almost impossible currently.
