Def smoky here . Hazy look

6z GFS was close with.a cane

Can we tariff Canadian wildfire smoke?

It’s coming for all.

Expanded data back to 2010 - looks like Mon, Tue then 8/10 and beyond could add to those - no strong heat (95+) but do see plenty of 88 - 91 days through the 13/14th before perhaps more sustained warmth / heat towards the middle , second half of august. EWR can get there with a N/NNE/E with right amount of sun.

This morning’s low of 55.7 was the chilliest morning here in East Nantmeal since the 55.1 reading back on June 4th. The lowest temperature around the county this morning was the 52.3 at the Warwick Township station. The first 2 days of August have averaged around 10 degrees below normal temperatures. Today will continue the below normal start to the month, but we have a quick 2 day warm up on Monday and Tuesday with temperatures not too far from average in the mid 80’s. Starting Wednesday we chill down a bit again with temperatures finishing out the work week a few degrees below normal. There is no rain at all in the forecast for this week.

80s is perfect not a hint of smoke. We Arctic blue

Was interesting watching this thing spin up right in front of me down in Carteret county. Had squalls from all directions. Picked up 2.12” of rain but only had a high gust of 35mph just off the water. High sustained was about 20mph.

Got down to 53 in Marysville this morning.

52F for the low. Last night was spectacular. Very rare to be able to light the firepit in August.

Yea winds here in the Outebanks are sustained from the NE 20-30 with gusts to 40 mph. Water is closed to swimmers double red flags as the ocean is running 5-8 feet.

All Newark needs to have another year with 40 days reaching 90° is to approach the 2010-2024 average of 11 days after July 31st.

58 imby, Tipton airport hit 55.

71 / 59 and another beaut of a day on tap. Warmer than yesterday by a few mid 80s. Monday warmer still with some inland areas to 90. With a similar Tue. Likely see clouds push back in on Wed from the south and clear out Thu, with the brunt of the rain down into MD and points outh. Overall near normal week - dry and lots of sunshine. Flow remains manly onshore the next 5 days with flow coming around more southerly with a warmer / hotter and wet overall next week. 8/3 - 8/8 : Near normal / below - dry overall - Wed/Thu clouds - rain looks to stay southwest 8/8 - beyond : Warm- Hot / Humid - wet overall - Tropics - heat for the area targeting the 9-12 period.

2. Central Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave is forecast to move off the west coast of Africa in the next day or two. Thereafter, some gradual development of the wave is possible during the middle to latter part of next week while it moves generally west-northwestward across the central tropical Atlantic. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.
