D-I-T You want him we got him come and get him he weenie getting weather facts from twitter baby

50 was the low here.

If the smoke is the cause of the ozone wouldn't that make the ozone in our case elevated?

Unfortunately Florida would be my favored area for another Major. It’s only a matter of time before we see another Andrew into south Florida. I would never favor the NE for a hit as it’s a low probability year over year but it’s the most “due”. Water temps in the home grown area for the north east are the most anomalous in the entire basin. A Bob or Carol track would almost certainly lead to a major hit for eastern New England. Something that hasn’t happened since 1938. Obviously no one will feel sorry if the Hamptons are destroyed. Having spent time out there, there are middle to lower income communities were workers live. And these people would be the most impacted.

I think this diagram answers my own question. It seems wildfires can contribute to ozone formation?

Very good point. I heard the same in the car this morning driving to work. I heard the air quality alert and assumed it was for the smoke. Then he said it was for ozone and I'm like what?

57 degrees this morning, still holding on to comfortable morning temps.

So according to the NWS air quality index, the health alert is for ozone. I recall that stagnant hot high pressure systems are conducive to the formation of surface level ozone, but I have also heard that others are attributing the air quality alert to the Canadian wild fires. On Tuesday, the smoke was at the higher altitudes. Wouldn't the smoke diffuse the sunlight to prevent excessive ozone formation in this case?

Pretty smoky sunrise this morning. I noticed temps were a little slower to rise this morning than usual due to the smoke. Lowest temp this morning came after 6am, despite the sun being up for over 40 minutes

That’s a great song. whatcha weenies want…arf arf.. whatcha weenies want…

Smoky sky this morning

49.5 last night.

55 for my Marysville low today.

Down to 49F off a high of 83F, nice natural AC. Might have to turn on the Air for a day or two; meh on the torch.

Said with my best DMX voice. “here we go again”

49.7° Still too cold

This is why I have been quietly cheer it on.....nothing we can do about the dews, but the smoke may cap the heat a bit.

Just over an inch of much-appreciated rain here. Locations less than ten miles south picked up nearly 1.8” from a SW to NE oriented line, so location mattered. Nevertheless, grass and garden will proper.

I think last winter was a sign of change, but its probably going to be an incremental, two steps forward, one step backwards kind of deal. ...

56 when I left the house and 52 through the rurals. I’ll scope out the MDT weather station as we go by on the train.

Agree. I think we are stuck in a -PDO decadal state for at least another year

The decade of smoke rolls on. Can’t buy a snow storm but get blanketed in smoke every week.

Looks like it could be a decent Saturday in SNE.

Friday may have a few bangers around especially western ma. Wonder if the smoke keeps temps down a couple of tics.
