What a beautiful blue sky today. Have seen several high planes/jet contrails traversing the skies today.

Oddly, I like that feature. When I first saw it, wasn't a fan.

-2 at Saranac Lake. Pretty legit cold for April.

As an aside, today and tomorrow both should bust MOS like 1-3 F I think. It's not a huge or even noticeable thing. Not 'busts' per se. Just that we are Sep 3 sun equiv, with just about as unadulterated solar as is physically doable on this planet, with the possible exception of say 1,000 miles out amidst the Sahara ... I doubt these machine numbers have the lowest 500 feet of explosive super adiabats locked down. It's a fetish of mine to test MOS in April and May

38.9 this morning felt especially chilly after the hot weather stretch we’ve been in

Always take the over on our warmups and take it even higher with dry ground and no foliage on trees

Just get through tomorrow morning and the last vestiges of winter will be behind us.

I think I could still be on the warm side of things…especially Tuesday. Wed is more fragile. But if it ends up 68° with sun here while it’s 83° at BDL I’ll have no complaints.

We're definitely seeing 90+ next week. We already saw mid 80s in March

I suppose if you have 6 days to know it's coming by the time it does, meh. When it comes to na na na-na scaling ( haha ), in order of irate the least is that one. 3 is knowing for days your fucked. Oh k... gradual acceptance. 2 is surprisingly BD's ... you'd think they'd be #1 but no... Usually you have some inkling that a BD is possible. Also, knowing it's BD time of year ... 1 is when it is warm for days in the charts. Plans are made. Then, the models pull the rug at that sweet 36 hours ahead deliberate look. This rendition is the most annoying. To help qualify this .. imagine a historic blizzard, not like that isolated SE Mass job last Feb... I mean interior VA to Maine, in 2-3 feet of snow, with a stall off Montauk Point across 2 cycles of Lunar tides, for 5 days of guidance. Nat Guard is on call... APs are preemptively canceling flights. General states panic as ems light up FEMA web-site graphic. General state of dopa O.D. awe --> 36 hours out that first model run with nothing. umm

24 for a low

KFIT GFSX MOS GUIDANCE 4/08/2026 0000 UTC WED 08| THU 09| FRI 10| SAT 11| SUN 12| MON 13| TUE 14| CLIMO 33 55 X/N 48| 24 59| 35 66| 44 60| 32 60| 44 70| 55 75| Heh, nothing like being 20 points above climo at both ends of the diurnal range, at 6 days lead time in a MOS product that is pretty heavily weighted toward climatology at that range ... I do think next week is kind of 'first test' for this summer - personally - because I feel this year's season has a shot at some historic heat. The reason primarily being the pan-dimensional dry antecedent continent, with lower persisting soil moisture anomalies, right as we are about to jump into the highest sun angles of the year. Keep in mind, we are less than 1 month from solar max entry... on or about May 6. We just need to shed the 90/60 polar vortex and things can turn around and catch civility off-guard. We still live in a CC-enraged synergistic heat event planetary system and that's not going away... This seems to be a good candidate year to test if we send the mercury into over-achieving warm results, both relative to pattern... but relative to "when it gets hot". Again, we need to get the patterns ...so we'll see. In the meantime, this next Tues/Wed, if that boundary does hull up NW and leaves our region soaked in WSW flow of dry kinetically charged air mass, that's an opportunity to over perform. Being 20 over climo weighting at D6 isn't trivial

26 at home too. The tulips looked sad this morning.

WU has me at 86 next Tuesday.

IAD barely touched 32, and not till *after* sunrise.

Frosty low of 26 this morning. Looks like you'll be enjoying a lot of relatively dry weather here at home while I deal with the onset of the rainy season in the Caribbean.

East Nantmeal broke it’s record low this morning with a low of 25.9. The old record was 27.8 set back in 2007. While a short-term record here since 2004 nowhere close to record across the county. The lowest reading I could find this morning was the 21.6 at our typical cold spot in Warwick Township. Another well below normal temperature day with highs struggling into to the low 50’s. Another freeze potential tonight before we start a slow warming trend to near normal temperatures by the weekend with highs in the low 60’s. We should see well above normal temperatures early next week before another cool down sets in by the end of next week. No real rain chances through the week.

Cool. 25F in CAR and 80 in BOS

Minus the turning the grass blades white if you overspray

The targeted for misery factor might be even more delicious the next day on Wednesday...

25 for the low here. Heat was running this am
