Only one clap of thunder here. It rained briefly, but no flush hits recently. Sun is popping back out, so maybe that’ll energize things with that trailing batch near Hagerstown.

One can't even calculate how many feet of snow we would have received from such speculations.

Liberty.

79/70 here

You can absolutely see snow squalls coming at you, and it is assume.

This is why we’re weather weenies… for storms like Erin.

3rd year in a row with top 1% Rapid Intensification 2023 was Lee 2024 was Milton 2025 Erin

Greeks do the same thing as well.

They have no stations in eastern Queens anyway, Queens College is the farthest east they get and that's barely east of the Van Wyck. You basically have nothing in the eastern half of the borough that faces Nassau. And technically it was part of the state Mesonet. And the sensor is on the roof of a building 50 feet up.

Borderline CoC here. 80F. Not too dewy. Partly cloudy. No smoke

There’s a blob of precip meandering south, but not sure how much of it will make it over the Catoctin force field.

Peek a boo but most cloudy Heatwave in jeopardy

Lollies to 12? Can always go higher.

Always take the over on temps under on rain.

Laughably ridiculous RI

Incredible photo. Those guys have be getting the shit kicked out of them flying in this beast

You win championships doing it both ways that compliment each other. All teams that are continuously good do it this way. Except for the rays. Some how they trade there best players and still are a perennial post season team most years.

It's hot again. 88 currently with a DP of 72. Heat Index of 95.

It's also interesting talking about previous historic records (both hot and cold, both snowy and rainy) and instrument relocations, it gives a lot of context to what's going on.

Wow

Absolutely beautiful hurricane

In traditional Italian families the first son takes the name of the paternal grandfather. Sadly for Anthony’s son this would be a posthumous honor. As always ….

woah you can probably even see a snow squall wall headed towards you, those can be truly epic, I've seen a few of them on I-80 in NJ and PA. And the associated traffic jams lol. The jams might be a good thing in snow squalls though, you really want to slow down in them.

These weather forums have always existed in order to provide context to the current weather being experienced and the forecasts based on these current initialized conditions. Don and Uncle started adding background on the other forum. Reading their excellent posts was one of the reasons that I joined. While it’s nice having everyone list their current conditions, adding context to how it fits in to what is usual or unusual has always been a tradition. This is the main reason that weather records exist in the first place. But these frequent climate shifts since the late 1970s to warmer have been changing the baseline. So we are no longer in the stable and cooler climate prior to the 1980s. Understanding this is essential since it sets the new parameters of what types of events are possible for each warmer climate background state. We can’t accurately make forecasts based on these older assumptions which applied to the cooler climate eras. Plus the warming introduces new biases into the model forecasts which we need to discuss for accurate forecasts. If for some reason things were different and we were slipping into a new ice age, I doubt that the posters such as yourself would complain that too much attention was being given to how much colder our climate is becoming. So my guess is that you would be fine with discussing that in these threads and not want to move the discussion into a separate coming ice age and global cooling thread.

That makes my skin crawl, even though I know we need them lol. Just not inside my house =\
