You said you had decent rain overnight - might be as silly as the ground holding some moisture that's radiating up that you're feeling.

What's so funny? 10 more ok let's check back ave temp isn't going up to other hot summers

I said a few weeks back we got 10-15 90F days left!! And I think we've had 2 or 3 since I said that

I mean we may get 10 more 90 degree days by 8/31 lol

This summer doesn't hold a handkerchief to others for 90 degree days. This is BDL a known death valley spot compared to the rest of CT Only 18 so far. Stats are met summer. We really have not had consistent high heat.

For these 10% chance of rain days, I sure am getting the 10%. Would have loved for it to rain in the morning or at night. Bad timing.

* Building heat for much of next week with widespread 90s moderate humidity levels. Meh

Nah always a August torch week then 1 in September. So glad we had a week of AC off. Now to finish summer we torch. Enjoy your sweat

I haven't noticed anything on me and haven't really been in any environment prone to ticks. Luckily I have my annual physical Tuesday so if I'm still unwell then I can see the doctor. I'm hoping/assuming I'll be like 90% tomorrow and back 100% Saturday. I usually don't get sick for more than a day or two, even when I got covid the first time...I was horribly sick for like a day and a half. Took Tylenol like noon of the second day I was really sick and by like 4:00 I was like 90% better lol (but I grant this to having both my shots).

Friday: Another gorgeous day is on tap for southern New England as high pressure remains parked overhead. High temperatures once again top out in the upper 70s to low 80s with low humidity. What a week! Best ever?

Yea, the tweeter is actually a retired certified meteorologist lol Crazy right?

The PDO- is, in large part, a function of the marine heatwave in the West Pacific. It is not due to cold sea surface temperatures. I'm not sure the quoted individual knows what constitutes a negative or positive PDO, much less that the PDO- does not support whatever climate-related argument he is trying to make.

Only 1 degree and some change above normal was able to push this into the top 10? Very interesting. Pretty sure that was driven by our hot, humid nights. The above normal days weren't that extreme (only 2 day 95 or above) and like almost half the month was below normal in terms of daytime highs. Unquestionably.

Did you check for tick bites? Sounds like a lyme except for the tickly throat.

Yeah. It’s getting crispy around here now too. We’ve definitely had more rain than you’ve had this summer but with these slow/nearly stationary storms, it almost has to develop over top of you or it rains itself out before it moves 5 miles. lol

same here-77 with a nice breeze-house is opened up which is great on the wallet

The 12Z JMA once again refuses to recurve 96L. It keeps it weak (TDish) and it hits ~Vero Beach, FL, as a 1011 TD at 192 (8/15). Due to ridging to its N, it is moving mainly W and toward the Gulf. This is a far left outlier, which sometimes happens with the JMA.(The weak low near Barbados is from the W African wave.)

Nice day out there today with a temperature of 79 and a ESE breeze. e

Oh they'll be there.

I caught something super nasty. Very sore and tickly throat, alternating between hot and chills, a bit of a stuffy nose, exhausted, feel unbalanced. Thought maybe covid but negative. I don’t get sick much (3rd time in 5 years) but wow…when I do it nails me.

It poured the rain last night and has been raining today again. Very wet.

Gimme a hell! Gimme a yeah! LFG
