Some places west of Raleigh have seen nearly 1 foot of rain! Forecast was for amounts of 1-4” with isolated totals of 6”. Per RadarScope I’m seeing widespread 5+” totals with several areas more than double that.

Considering what it’s doing to the polar Arctic region up there… I don’t think it’s a hell of a lot better

Highs: EWR: 95 TEB: 91 LGA: 90 New Brnswck: 90 PHL: 90 TTN: 88 NYC: 87 JFK: 86 BLM: 86 ACY: 86 ISP: 85

I think they actually base it off anomalies. Average temperature in Indianapolis is higher than Boston hence...

More misleading nonsense. Regarding the Tokyo data, you know something’s up when there’s a graph from Tony Heller’s wife limited to 1994-2021. You can pull up the raw data for Tokyo from JMA. There is, in fact, an inhomogeneity flagged in December 2014, consistent with the inflection point in this small subset of data. So the bias correction appears to be correct. Moreover, the long-term trend is actually greatly reduced by the UHI correction. That’s why nothing before 1994 is shown there. Further, the two warmest years in the raw data are the last two years (even without correcting for the change that occurred in 2014). 2025 appears well on its way to approaching those highs. Feel free to look for yourself: https://www.data.jma.go.jp/stats/data/en/index.html

Yeah, anyway this is like standard summer heat today… It wasn’t out of control If that’s what people’s point is, I don’t have problem with that. So the reason why the heat index is the same here as it is and Atlanta Georgia or Florida Dallas or whatever, yet no advisory, is because of acclamation bias, which is a very real legitimate concern - has to be factored into pulling headline triggers. Ex, Virginia Beach gets a winter storm warning and a town shut down for four days over 3 inches of snow

Prolly not this week. Brrrrr.. "on Thurs but this could change as model guidance irons things out going forward. Finally, temperatures will fall quite a bit by Thursday and Friday with an easterly onshore flow developing. Ensemble guidance shows surface temperature anomalies falling to between 5 and 10 degrees below climatology Thursday afternoon

What a treat to have a 3 day holiday weekend without rain.

I'm actually laughing out loud. That's how wars get started

Picked up .67" today. Not bad. Waiting to hear the big totals from west of Raleigh.

I just read that water rescues are taking place in Orange County, the county where Chapel Hill is located: "’People trapped with water up to their necks or higher’ at camelot village apts in CH”

Oh. Lol okay

Front half was a fridge

See post above

Yes, you did You posted that excerpt placing that Connecticut shit in the center of the image of course you did Jesus you won’t quit with this goddamn gaslighting crap shut the fuck up

My apologies tip I see where you've got the Northern Connecticut. It was from the advisory but that was for all of Massachusetts and Connecticut. It just so happened that that's where the screen print was cut off. Certainly wasn't devious on my part. I could have included all the other counties.

Only problem Tip , I never mentioned Northern Connecticut before our discussion and your reply. In fact, I mentioned southborough and Southern New Hampshire which were hotter than most. Maybe you confused me with someone else. We good...

Their not they’re, but otherwise kind of agree with this random post.

A +19.2 day in summer is pretty damn hot. I doubt we see that again this summer.

Just our area. Indianapolis, Savannah, Atlanta all had heat indexes similar to ours with no heat advisory.

Indeed. That 4 day stretch was nails. but the first half was pretty cool

Back half was a furnace

This is not a "become" issue. It has always been this way with weather headlines. We are reading too much into this as an Advisory . A wind advisory is breezy. A heat advisory is warm. A wind chill advisory is cold. None of it is necessarily out of the normal range/distribution of the seasonable weather, but those headlines (for decades) have been used to notify people it's going to be a bit outside the comfortable range. You notice it when you go outside, but it's easily managed.
