August 2026 finished with a preliminary monthly mean temperature of 16.957C. That would shatter the August mark of 16.823C from 2024. It would also edge past July 2023's 16.953C to become the warmest month on record in the ERA-5 dataset.

Where was the heat advisory, or warning yesterday when we needed it?

Ravens fans, does Kyle Van Noy have anything left in the tank as a backup OLB?

I've been tracking since 2023. Over 1C daily is very warm but it has happened before mainly in the 23/24 nino. 1.04C in Nov 2023 is the highest monthly value. August was 0.942 the 5'th highest monthly value , the higher values were the last 4 months of 2023. Note that changes to the gfs model may change the metric.

Low of 68 with .19” of rain. Amtrak is down this morning due to a fallen tree on the tracks near Philly. Damn.

I see our storms for later on over Lake Erie this morning. Lake Ontario also has a nice batch.

Thunder just woke us up. I checked radar and it’s an isolated storm just around here. Nothing else within hundreds of miles. Rain magnet still working well I see.

93 was the high yesterday .24 rain.had a dp of 84 yesterday afternoon with a heat index of 116

An annular specimen, a developing buzzsaw and a sprawling tropical storm scramble spread across the pacific

92 for the high yesterday. I received .38” of rain yesterday while Montourville airport where they record Williamsport readings received 1.59” , they got hit pretty hard. Lots of lightning last night! 68 degrees this morning

You fished your wish, 92-93 and 93-94 seasons are up

All the quoted statements above are useless from a TC analysis perspective. I've done Dvorak analysis and classification for TCs globally for 5 years at my current job, and the details often are everything! "Tstms blossoming around the center," one must ask, "is it smooth, persistent, and banded convection or just irregular blobs pulsing up and down?" This difference is huge as to signs of organization or short-term trends. Also, it makes a difference if the convection blossoms right over the center vs. it not. The former is much better for intensification potential. At about 1230z on 9/1 we finally saw this w/ Edouard after hours of blob convection away from the center and then it started to intensify markedly. "Angle of thunderstorms" No one in tropical met field ever says that. It reminds me of what Bill Paxton said in 'Twister' -- "look at the ANGLE of the updraft!" Artistic license for the movie! "Compact storm, just needs to spin more...good sign it's strengthening" Well, thanks Captain Obvious, we know it is a compact storm, and spinning more is good thing, but how about some actual empirical observations rather than drivel speculation!?

On 9/16/1986, while a spinner occurred at 635am in Scituate MA, it was snowing in NNE w/ 2" at Glen NH. I recall it well b/c during tstms in ern MA, it was so cold during them!

Storm cells nearby racing at uncommon speeds this nox (overnight). Nice MCS hitting Barrie coming in from the SE. I'm at least 50 min drive from the nearest current cell and I can see tepid lightning already no thunder. This setup I can already tell is juiced as hell; 23C/22C DP that is seriously impressive for nox on Sept 2! EC put us under a svr watch for hail up to golf balls and 90 km/h winds. I've had basically zip for real storms all summer. They danced around me only giving thunder and heavy downpours. Its fun seeing how my main summer months now for years are absent of anything - its all in the shoulder months like March, April, and late summer like now.

Sometimes quite localized areas get repeatedly hammered. Looks at just RI, ern MA, an Downeast ME Jan-Feb 2015. It was relentless! But regarding snowstorms and the synoptic scale, the odds of them all just whaling on this small part of New England for 6 weeks? That's pretty incredible, YET it happened!

Did remember to start up in this thread. Ended up with 8.06" of rain for August. And as an obs for yesterday, I did manage to hit 90 after a 72 low. Last evening was an almost continuous lighting show and the precip blobs were impressive but I only got a whopping 0.02" from that. i noticed the line was moving fast so that might have cut down on the totals here. My sis, BIL, and nephew were at the Linc at a Bruno Mars concert last night. They initially had an hour rain/lightning delay and resumed just before 8:30 pm per her text, but then they were apparently forced to shelter in place and the show didn't resume until almost 10 pm per this - https://www.fox29.com/news/bruno-mars-raye-concert-philly-paused-due-severe-weather Currently 69 with dp 69.

The Tamaqua Split held strong last night. It sure looked like I was going to be under the gun for a good chance for a good storm, but some cells moved northeast of me, while the main area moved southwest. End result? No lightning, no thunder, and 0.05" of rain...

You got Edouard instead. Did you weenie out tracking it on radar all night last night, and say, "when is this thing going to intensify!" It took its time and waited until the last min!

Did you know there is an AWOS at Lake Placid? METARs started a few years ago! https://www.airnav.com/airport/KLKP
