Car top frost overnight. Might be the latest I've personally seen that

Thats the million dollar question. I hope were done with this cool, sometimes cold, cloudy windy weather till November. But I think we need further guidance on this matter.

Do you mean yesterday’s storm? It was a good event. Definitely thread worthy.

First time since 1988 here around HVN that the strongest May wind gusts occurred so late in the month. So an unusually strong late May storm system. Very impressive omega block for this time of year.

Mi casa was not part of the 'most' category. I haven't watched the whole thing, but I'm located about 100 yards from the scenes from minutes 17:00 - 20:00. Hurricane Bob drove a surge of 10 to 15 feet into Buzzards Bay. The Buzzards Bay shore east to Cape Cod was hardest hit. The highest surges, of 12 to 15 feet, were observed in Onset, Bourne, Mashpee and Wareham, at the head of Buzzard's Bay. Cove Road, in Mattapoisett, Massachusetts had 29 of 37 homes destroyed, while Angelica Point, Massachusetts lost 32 of 35 homes along the shore. Boat damage was significant, as many boats were torn from their moorings.

.37 total it does look like a twig/leaf massacre out there - winds were decent

Pretty good winds yesterday. .

Looks like maybe summer by the end of the week. Question is, do we keep it, or do the temps tank again after next weekend?

47 for the low imby

39 frigid degrees was my low too. What season are we in and what season are we headed to?

Lots of low-mid 40s for lows on the mesonet. Impressive.

Temp took a big dip here the past two hours. It was 42 when I got up at 4:30, but now it dropped to where we officially got down to 39 at 6:30. Crazy...

41.6°F this morning here. One of the coldest for this late in the season Westhampton dropped to 30°F this morning. This is the latest freeze on record for KFOK. Old record was May 22nd with 32°F set in 2002. More recently, in 2020 the low was 33°F on June 1st

But your Phoenixville chart shows increasing heat waves in the same 1978 to 2025 period. There are other explanations for the discrepancy. Station changes at Octoraro Lake being the most likely. You've been making the same cherry-picked comparisons with PHL for a decade now. Invariably the story changes when additional stations are included. Its about time for a KPTW update

Yep. Did a bit better than you last week with the drizzle here, but my veggie garden is already thirsty as heck after two sunny days

37 degrees this morning. Can’t remember seeing such temperature swings. No surprise though with the clear blue skies last night.

So glad you experienced some snow yesterday! That was a cute little system.

The chart shows more heat waves at Phoenixville, when you consider the spurious warmth at Phoenixville in the 1930 to 1940 period that is well documented in this thread.

43f at 3pm yesterday in death valley with changeable skies....40s most of the day, pretty wild for met summer 33-34f this morning for lows, not earth shattering but nice to see it can still happen Congrats to those northern mass folks who saw anything from cat paws to brief burts of moderate to heavy wet non accumulating snow or a slushy coating...so cool in met summer

The Coatesville move from urban to rural occurred in 1948, well before the 1970-2025 period in the chart. Yes the Coatesville stations have different elevations, but there is little impact on annual average temperatures, hence the good agreement between the Coatesville series and NCEI over the 1970 to 2025 period.

Down to 34F here; good end to May: golfed in Tropical storm forced winds with a wind chill in the 30’s, heard the loud bang, only 0.09” of rain and low temps in the 30’s

36 and frosty this morning..

It was far better than this last POS. no one should ever consider making a thread for that last one - mods dropped ball badly

lol hurricane bob and eventually 1991 halloween forever changed the landscape

It wasn’t high end regionally, but it was good enough for some excitement. That’s going to be hard to come by this season. I have extremely low expectations in the basin this season.
