All Activity

What conditions caused the dust storm? I didn't hear about it til after the fact. We had nothing here.

The last completely rain free weekend in Greenfield was in March.

This afternoon is gorgeous with a refreshing breeze and temperatures in the low 70s. A few photos from Katonah:

In 2021, NYC had back to back days with high temps of only 51 on May 29th and 30th, happens.

I haven’t looked a lot. I’ve seen my usual on the feeders…rose breasted grosbeaks, catbirds, orioles, cardinals, etc. My robin is nesting in the garage again and the phoebe is in the run again too.

Glad to see the thread rolling on. I have not hit one ball yet. @kdxken, please force me to play before month end lol. Thanks

I never understood the unofficial start to summer for beaches in late May. Water is still very cold and temps can be very chilly too with any east wind. To me the 4th of July weekend is the real start to summer.

The pollen was wild yesterday, but the fun part is biking up hills in my neighborhood that face w/nw when we’re in an Upper Midwest pattern.

Up to 74 before it became mostly cloudy now some more breaks - Just a fab day

Glad I don't live there. Never mind it is headed this way

I have no idea what this means.

The HRRR runs have several intense helicity tracks across the enhanced-moderate risk area. A little bit away from OKC and Wichita. 15% hatched tornado risk in the area of Wichita.

none at nyc. Lowest 38 (1976) - 5-19 and 39 (1963) 524

At least most of the helicopters and Oak dongs blew down in wind today . Get that nightmare over with.

Tuesday it appears that the warm front will be up along the Ohio River again. Outflow should at least start out in Tennessee. System should be strong enough to lift it north again. However the timing is just a little faster than on Friday.. So we get other prefrontal convergence line(s) in Tennessee. That's not necessary a recipe for upgrade. As SPC notes it's a bit veered off. Shortwave could also outrun storms, which would really help keep things in check. Slower wave than what the globals show would tee up the Valley a bit.

Pattern looks good after this week

What will you do to enjoy the cool?

It has happened, but only naturally in Tuckerman Ravine. I’ve never heard of it happening at a ski area with manmade snow (although I’m sure they could pull it off it they wanted to by simply making enough snow and using blanketing techniques, etc.) It looks like the last time it happened was 1926, and that appeared to be unusual, but it may have happened more in the preceding century. Regarding the snow in Tuckerman Ravine from the link below: “It lasts longer here than in any other area in the eastern United States. During recent years it has disappeared, on the average, during the first week in August, but it persisted through the summer of 1926, “for the first time in the memory of the old timers” and new snow fell on the old in October.” I think it’s much more about the spring/summer temperature, humidity and precipitation regime and how soon temperatures cool down in the autumn vs. total snowfall for the previous season. And for Tuckerman Ravine, I bet the season’s avalanche patterns would have an effect as well. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-glaciology/article/an-historical-survey-of-the-lateseason-snowbed-in-tuckerman-ravine-mount-washington-usa/9A5964D0AA6C9D6E9D5A2C55493F4F1C

This was in Charlotte. It was on WCAX last night. https://www.wcax.com/2025/05/18/high-water-hail-storms-hit-region/

Same here...

Great 45 day 5H look back in early April by the EPS nailed this upcoming week.

I did not install and looks like it won’t happen for awhile.

Hmm a fan and a pool night's are 50s who needs AC for that 3 hr period it was 80.

Some of the people here should pool their money together in order to purchase some land in the Floribama area...and then open a commune.... "Triple H Commune- Built To Remind You of Tolland And Billerica But With The Stench Of The Deep South"

And that's a scary thought.
