DAW 90 84.5° at home

I spent the entire summers in Greece in a lot of our warmest summers in the 1990s here. I wasn't here to experience 1993, 1995, or the 1999 summers.

lmao I told you it looked like an air pollution map from June 2023.... or a map of Mars

I don't know if it's as much of ploy as it is a boneheaded decision. The tidbits colors are ok. The weathermodels map is not so good. But Pivotal takes the cake for worst color scheme. It has deep red for temps in the upper 60s. GTFO with that nonsense.

yes there was

If the climate models were correct, we would all be getting three 100 degree days every summer. Sure some areas are getting hotter but it's not as widespread as we thought it would be and the warming is affecting our winters much more than our summers. These models need to be tweaked to account for what we're actually seeing. Which is higher mins and a blunting of extreme highs in the summer.

what about those other days and why does it happen at the same time

Yeah and I'm driving to northern Maine and then through to P.E.I. Sounds like it could be some crappy driving in spots.

No drop yesterday.....

They actually make it look like things are cooling. Since the more recent climate normals are the warmest on record. Our warmer summers patttern bagan back in 2010. So when we use more recent climate normals they appear cooler than the climate normals did over 20 years ago.

Big move south by the 12K NAM but it's a garbage model so who knows - edit-the RGEM moved a bit south at 12z so maybe it's onto something

Won't have to go far either

Show me the statistical data and reason and reference any station relatively nearby showed the need for a 3 to 4 degree adjustment during those years...

Maybe the heat from the continents is heating the western basins more quickly? The same thing seems to be happening in the Western Atlantic.

Man wish I could go to the beach.

Still a decent chance, probably based more on Kansas and the Colorado Front Range based on climo. Good luck.

Saturday still very much a question mark. The nams look nothing alike

We are

Another so-so call here. Was expecting something a bit more robust. Instead LP will run the OHRV along a boundary as HP hovers over the Lakes. A CAN system will enter the sub over the weekend with another LP coming in from the SW wrapping up over the Lakes is what it looks like. That's closer to what I was keyed in on, just too early. Being off by 24-48 hrs is pretty typical in my casts.

Absolutely - would be nice to run this weather through Labor Day

Tomorrow looks interesting along and just north of front tomorrow.

Just go by actual temperature history, no summer in recent memory can hold a candle to 1993, 1999, 2002 or 2010.

I wonder if this is a yearly pattern now, with heat going to the western part of the continent. We just do not get super hot summers here like 1993 and 2010 were. Posting that temperature record from July 9, 1993 from JFK is quite the revelation.

Yeah, it runs on the 5th of every month and this summer update was just released a few hours ago.

Let's see if we can get it to match what I just posted from July 1993.
