All Activity

Almost my response exactly!

Eh, seems like the heat will have moderated by the time it gets to us, maybe +5 degrees above average for a stretch

I saw that when I went fishing thought it was a UFO lol got a good video.

One thing to watch moving through the first week of September is the increasing likelihood for ridging to be centered more towards or just off the Southeast coast. For much of the last several weeks (At least) we've seen the ridging centered more Texas/New Mexico. This will open the room for widespread 80's and 90's in the typical hot spots and we probably become active with convective potential too given a westerly flow developing aloft.

Awesome! That is about 6 miles to my NW. Will be pinning that one. Thanks!!

August 25 1976: The Roy Lake Fire results in 2,600 acres burned during a drought. 1875: A tornado strikes near Hutchinson. For Tuesday, August 25, 2026 1814 - In the early afternoon, a strong tornado struck northwest Washington D.C. and downtown. The severe tornadic storm arrived the day after the British Troops had set fire to the Capitol, the White House, and other public buildings. The storm's rains would douse those flames. The tornado did major structural damage to the residential section of the city. The tornado's flying debris killed more British soldiers than by the guns of the American resistance. The storm blew off roofs and carried them high up into the air, knocked down chimneys and fences and damaged numerous homes. Some homes were destroyed. It lifted two pieces of cannon and deposited them several yards away. At least 30 Americans were killed or injured in the heavily damaged buildings, and an unknown number of British killed and wounded. 1885 - A severe hurricane struck South Carolina causing 1.3 million dollars damage at Charleston. (David Ludlum) 1940 - New Jersey experienced its coldest August morning of record, with lows of 32 degrees at Layton and Charlotteburg. (The Weather Channel) 1987 - Morning thunderstorms produced heavy rain in eastern Nebraska and southwestern Iowa. Stanton IA reported 10.50 inches of rain. Water was reported up to the handle of automobiles west of Greenwood NE. Rainfall totals for a two day period ranged from 7 to 14 inches across southwestern Iowa. Crop damage was in the millions for both states. Subsequent flooding of streams in Iowa the last week of August caused millions of dollars damage to crops, as some streams crested ten feet above flood stage. (Storm Data) 1988 - Seven cities in California reported record high temperatures for the date, including Sacramento with an afternoon reading of 104 degrees. Thunderstorms produced locally heavy rains in Arizona. Chino Valley was drenched with 2.50 inches of rain in just thirty minutes washing out a couple of streets in town. (The National Weather Summary) 1989 - Morning thunderstorms drenched Spencer, IN, with 4.10 inches of rain in three hours causing extensive street flooding. Evening thunderstorms in eastern Kansas produced up to six inches of rain around Emporia, and four inches of rain in just forty-five minutes near Parsons, and also produced wind gusts to 70 mph at Lake Melvern. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 2005 - Katrina becomes a hurricane just before landfall in south Florida between Hallandale Beach and North Miami Beach. Maximum sustained winds at the time of landfall were near 80 mph. There were eleven fatalities in South Florida, including four by falling trees. More than 1.3 million customers lost electrical services, and preliminary insured loss estimates ranged from $600 million to $2 billion in the state of Florida (Associated Press).

Yeah everything is furnacing the first 10 days or so of Septorcher . Euro has temps near a Hundy for a day or two . Classic super Nino weather for fall with heat ridge in the East and endless summer .

Living in God's country already. I'm just fine

Aug 30 - Sep 7 period trending warm - hot ' er we'll see the ridge position key for pushing a late season heatwave and matching 3 summer months early hot starts.

It’s definitely trending warmer though

Got down to 57F this morning. That was nice.

That’s the EPS AI Ens

ECMWF hints at this, though I think this is exaggerated....likely closer to the coast than this. That is a resolution issue...like when the GFS places the CF near ORH a few days out from a storm.

More 6z maps

heh... ENSO correlations for 300 years due too - but, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that until the gradient locks in and the jet(s) configures accordingly ...etc.

Is this the GFS AI ...or ?

Roundy's stuff favors W Canada.

Great graphic from the NWS showing how Bridgeport was significantly ahead of the other major sites for summer rainfall this year.

Let's get a Labor Day '98 redux but even more widespread

yeah it sucks how relatively short in duration we get enjoyable weather. I mean 50's and 60's aren't bad but it's just so much more enjoyable to sit outside with shorts, plus when its into the 80's you can at least do water activities/beach. January though I don't mind...you're in prime winter/snow season so you just hope you can rack up winter events. The month I really despise is March. By the time March rolls around I am ready for consistent 70's. But March...and April can be dreadful and it feels like better weather will never come lol.

warming trend continued on the overnight models
