  1. Past hour
  2. Pretty strong smoke smell now
  3. 80/60 Building Cu The sun is bright here. Some smoke or haze. From my vantage point I can not make out Mt Sunapee anymore (28 miles) but still can see Kearsarge to my SSW. That is 25 miles.
  4. Yeah, we might get that stuff in upstate New York, which is why I said we may get some hazy skies this afternoon, but I don’t anticipate anything close to yesterday. Yesterday was a disaster.
  5. Front is coming from the north…FU may sneak into SNE briefly, but it will get mostly pinched off up here.
  6. The first time I remember smoke hitting the DC area was March 31, 1999. The fire was in the Shenandoah Valley. The date stuck in my mind because Activision's *Civilization: Call to Power* released on that date. I made a special trip to Gamestop to pick it up, and wondered about the weird smell in the air and the funny-colored sky.
  7. The large kelvin wave around 140W is probably the one to do most of the heavy lifting in a few weeks. Would expect subsurface anoms to increase past +10C here soon. Getting a little more tricky to find them when they get generated since the thermocline is pretty depressed already, but at least this one is still pretty visible.
  8. on the bright side, its a great day to work outside (assuming you don't care what happens to your lungs). Apparently smoke blocks UV a lot better than clouds. UV index is near zilch.
  9. nest has popcorn firing to my west along the differential heating boundary between smoke and clear air

  12. Have a cool breeze in Kearny right now. Making it feel tolerable minus the smell of smoke.
  13. I think eastern mass might be OK this afternoon. It might get a little hazy but nothing like yesterday.
  14. If I squint on the GOES-W imagery, it looks like a surface based plume is pushing through southern VT.
  15. It must be a pretty serious issue given the length of the outage and no estimate for restoration.
  16. Yes, at first blush it's not a disaster for the SE. But last couple of strong Ninos makes it clear it may not be that cut and dry either. Either way, I'd bet on wet.
