In 4 short months we’ll be talking how winter is a bust due to lack of snow in November and and first two weeks of December.

I’ll die on this hill, the PDO is going to be weak positive by the end of met fall

It’s so bad they’re trying to get after things like the tipping bucket to find water?

Enjoy the sweat, it’s the only sweat you got.

Looking for water? None around

Almost like June, very warm first half of the month, not so much the 2nd half. I bet if you put the first half of June with the first half of July, it would be close to a record warm month, and if you put the 2nd half of June with the 2nd half of July, it would probably be a Top 10 coldest month.

Fairly average July temperatures due to the much warmer 1991-2020 means across the area. Plus the record smoke for July shaved a bit off the averages and prevented another run over 100°. Several spots came close to their all-time highs earlier in the month. So one of our more unusual Julys of the 2020s.

Idk, last year's Niña was pretty standard for Niñas with snows along the east coast and cold.

Gonna miss him when Cade Povich gets the ball every 5 days

Forgot all about the air show until i saw a thunderbird over the hudson lol

I’ve never had an August 1st that felt so much like an October 1st. Clouds racing overhead, cool, gusty NE winds

Worst of this rain classic working out well for lollapalooza timing wise

Min 60.5°….I think Damn deer tripped over the wire to my FARS fan and ripped the splice apart.

I say good riddance. He’s Minnesota’s problem now.

66 for the low. Running to NYC for the day to see Death of a Salesman and thankful it’s toddy and not tomorrow- tranquil weather is appreciated!

I'd have them replace all the boards. You're place is beautiful. The reason I say this is because you need a non film forming woodstain (oil). These types of stain showcase the natural beauty of wood. New boards and old boards will have different levels of checking and coloration. You are correct about letting the wood dry. I like 13% or less on my moisture meter. That takes about 6 weeks this time of year. I'd wait 8 since your in the shade. Let's setup a free estimate sometime soon. We'll schedule it up for Oct. I have tons of experience and fair pricing. It's a little more humid this morning. I'm seeing lots of dew. I wanted to start staining at 7am but it's to damp this morning. What an awesome airmass we just had.

Agreed, no lazy days of summer break from mowing this year, especially with what looks like another wet week coming up. At least today is decent for the NY Air Show here but tomorrow is iffy.

Thank you. I made it.

This summer so far really hasn’t been that rainy compared to the past. Only a few areas in the interior have had 10” this month. Notice how far down in the rankings we are for wet summers at the major stations like NYC and ISP which missed the heaviest rains this month.

He’s been a reliable (and cheap) fifth starter for several years. Will occasionally throw a gem, occasionally a major clunker. He’s been pretty rough lately though.

Not sure i love getting anything from the Orioles but maybe this Kremer dude can be salvageable...my guess is no but hey my Twins are at least looking

That will be the test going forward. We will have to see how things evolve in the coming months. Since the seasonal models missed this summer pattern. So the seasonal models may even have lower skill than they traditionally have had beyond the one month forecast period. This summer is featuring a weaker Aleutian low than usual for a developing super El Niño and a much stronger mid-latitude ridge across the Pacific and the CONUS. So if this continues into the winter , then it could mean the traditional super El Niño ridge gets displaced further south and perhaps east into the CONUS than usual. Since a -PDO atmospheric state even overlapping at 10%-20% relative to the winter super El Niño forcing could lead to shifts. This would have implications on the warmth and possibly where the heaviest precipitation zones set up. The mid-latitude ridges being stronger than the troughs has been the main feature of our winters and other seasons since the 2015-2016 super El Niño.

The dog days of summer. Starting with a Saturday soaking for many of us.
