All Activity

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.

This world has become soft

Why OND?

87 we meh

About the same here in Raleigh but I’ll take it over the nearly 1 foot near chapel hill. Also the biggest rainfall event here in more than 3 weeks so we’ll definitely take it

@Damage In Tolland June was only 1.3 above average for highs.. not a torch here

What a catastrophic situation in central TX. The area from Austin to San Antonio and north in the Hill Country is probably the worst in the nation for flash floods. There's tons of moisture from the Gulf and remnants of Barry, long term drought so the soil is hard as a rock and the water has to runoff, and the hilly terrain which rushes the water into relatively small creeks and then larger rivers. Some places reported over 20" in this event and it's still raining. I can remember how bad it got in May 2015 when I was there and Wimberley was devastated by one of these fast moving floods coming down from the hills, and water rushed through downtown Austin on Memorial Day. But this is even worse.

Agreed… But you know we’re also getting these strange heat things everywhere. I’ll just leave it at that.

You need to say this sentence to me otherwise we’re not having this conversation further: ‘I should not have used an isolated area of northern Connecticut to characterize a total situation that was in fact hotter.’ The fact that you tried to do that comes off as gaslighting… Maybe it was maybe it wasn’t. I hate it when people fiddle with facts. It’s like gerrymandering reality Maybe you’re just one of these people that thinks their backyard represents everywhere. I don’t know, but I didn’t think you were that dumb either Because you use something tactically to manipulate or attempt to manipulate somebody to thinking of a reality that wasn’t so

Tropical juice and lift.

actually wasnt that bad

For sure, wandering instrument is most likely and that’s why I said it was worth checking out. Sorry if that wasn’t clear. PBG, the dews did drop into the mid/upper 50s while the temp spiked on west wind. Instead of 88/70 it was 96/57? Thermodynamically it works but that station isn’t known for doing that, despite being in the shadow of the Adirondacks. Maybe something changed around the site allowing better mixing? Or the sensor is just off, haha.

Martinez and Rizzo out for the Nats. Won't change much unless the ownership changes.

Could be instrumentation though? It seems like these national weather service temp instruments are prone to slipping their calibration or something.

OZ HRRR with some boomers on the eastern shore tomorrow afternoon that drop a lot of rain.

Treehouse put on a good show Friday, they charged $20 per car but you could see them for miles so didn't need to pay to see. We saw them in Oxford.

Worth checking on PBG. The 100F degree day fit on the westerly winds off the Adirondacks and associated obs. However, I’ve paid attention to weather up here for over two decades now and haven’t seen that happen before. In the moment it synoptically made sense, but why hadn’t it happened in any air mass before? Now a 96F while BTV is 92F? The BTV ob is in line with the MVL and MPV obs (MPV higher, so usually the coolest max of the 3). But the PGB obs buck a multi-decade trend. PBG is historically a degree or so cooler than BTV.

Tell me what I was gaslighting?

Alamance County is getting shelled right now. I’m at 5.5 inches and parts of the county are at 9 apparently. .

Big display in Greenfield last night by Atlas Fireworks.

You can feel the ramp up in the juice tonight here. Very tropical feel. This informal verbiage surely has weirdo ohleary perplexed.
