He’s never left my house.

The more rural observation sites are ranked just as high for the 90° day rankings as the urban ones.

Lots of HP building in from north. No dews.

So after 3.4" of rain, we back to stein again? he's tough to shake

The ridge acid has continued coming farther east each day . Euro still playing catch-up. The retro back west is also less now do it may just stay HHH for some time . Instead of 98-103 like next week , maybe it’s 88-93 with dews

Upton's AFD regarding the heat mid-late week: A highly anomalous amplified upper flow will be featured across the country from mid to late week, with a trough out west and a a high centered over the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. Heights are greater than 594 dm, about 2 SD above normal, and 85H temps on Thursday on the latest 00Z GFS are at or just above 22C. There is still some uncertainty with the upper ridge strength and magnitude as disturbances round the ridge across the Northeast. The 00Z GFS is still supporting a convective complex dropping across the Northeast Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, sending a back door cold front through the area. NBM temperatures for the long term were a few degrees too warm, especially for Thursday and Friday, most notably with a 105 high temperature near KTEB on Thursday. This seems too high with the aforementioned 22C at 85H. More realistic highs for NE NJ are upper 90s to lower 100s, slightly lower for NYC with the rest of the area in the middle to upper 90s, except cooler at the immediate coast. Slightly cooler readings are expected region-wide Friday. Record highs during this time are mainly 100 plus. So some pretty stout records are in place. If the NBM highs pan out however, they would tie or break records for Thursday. Max heat index values reach Heat Advisory criteria (95-99 for two days, 100-104 for one day) by Wednesday, with isolated readings reaching Extreme Heat Warning criteria (105+). Thursday will see widespread 105+ across the forecast area. Lower max heat index values expected Friday, with Heat Advisory possible for most places except NE NJ, NYC, and western Long Island, where Extreme Heat Warnings may be possible once again.

It builds character.

I just did a bunch of the same things that I tried yesterday and this time it worked. We back . Have the IP direct link

The hard and cracked soil is causing this morning's rain drops to bounce high in the sky. Very strange phenomenon

Sux to be those other places. But most are centered around the I95 concrete jungle heat island. No surprise there and to be expected as the development has not ended.

The powerful winds of Audrey tossed a fishing boat weighing 78 tons onto an off-shore drilling platform. Winds along the coast gusted to 105 mph, and oil rigs off the Louisiana coast reported wind gusts to 180 mph.

(The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - The afternoon high of 107 degrees at Bismarck, ND, was a record for the month of June, and Pensacola, FL, equalled their June record with a reading of 101 degrees.

The Richmond International Airport reported the mean temperature for June was 81.1 °F which was a new 113 year record. This breaks the old record of 79.2 °F set in 1943 and was a +8.7 °F departure from average. June had 8 new daily temperature records and all were for heat. (Ref. Richmond Weather Records - KRIC)

Thanks yall. Spending my birthday weekend (and most of next week) at, you guessed it, a dance competition

warmest winter on record

Only thing to muck it up, would be debris clouds.

No I said after the 4th we cool off which looks on track. But still summer wx.

remember when nino summers were cool

75 / 67 clouds - showers. Less than had been expected earlier in the week with general showers, light rain and occasional quick heavy shower with .10 - 0.45. Clears out tomorrow then the ridge buillds in by later Monday now centered a bit east with 850 temps >20c Tue - Sat peak heat 850 MB temps >22C Tue - Sat upper 90s / low 100s. Ridge >594 DM in the period with a bit of a pull back towards the late 4/5th but overall remaining warm - hot 7/5 - beyond. The risk of isolated or scattered showers the holiday weekend but overall 90% looking good. beaches and coast the seabreeze keeps the worst heat just back.

Your local area not really representative of the much warmer pattern experienced around the greater region from the spring into summer so far. Parts of NJ had early record 100° heat for May. Many local climate sites are currently in the top 5 for the most 90° days by June 24. But I agree with you that the pullbacks closer to average between the record heat days are probably the developing El Nino influence. While super El Niños are a small sample size, none of the previous developing super El Niños came anywhere close to the number of 90° days so early in the season. Most of the shared top 5 years are La Niña, neutral, or weaker El Niños. Plus the warming climate is also influence increasing the 90° days counts.

I have never played with a Vue. You have a console right? Does you have WeatherlinkIP that directly sends the data to your modem or do you download data to software on a PC?

Good thing I have no air conditioning!

i'm so glad climate change is not letting us have a cool nino summer

00z MEX is starting to pump those numbers up a bit to open July…BDL 98, MHT 97, LEB 95. I had a feeling we would trend that ridge axis more eastward with time like early June. The Labrador taint is more of a bully in April and May, but this time of year I take it with a grain of salt in the deep extended when there’s a pig ridge trying to build in. Obviously it’s New England and we can find a way to F up heat 6 ways from Sunday. I’ll be curious to see what happens after next weekend. Does the ridge still retro or does become more stubborn. We’ll probably knock heights back a bit either way, but do we reload the heat after that or go back to normal/seasonably warm?

Seems MUCH better at time of this post (a little after 8am ET on Saturday). But wonder if once the site gets more traffic it will return.
