Hampton Beach not 20 min ago. Photos courtesy of Rich Hamel. Even when no tstms exist, the mesoscale "Hampton Effect" as I have called it, comes through!

Locally we tend to see more robust monsoon precipitation, advancement and development when the snow pack is destroyed early in the season. At the automated snow measurement site on Ski Taos at 11,000 feet above sea level, we had ~40 inches of snowpack left on 5/23/23. In 2026, that was the day the snowpack fully melted. Would prefer not to relive July 2023, as it's essentially as warm as it can get here due to the complete lack of rain in our wettest month. I believe its our warmest month on record. Fortunately the source of the July 2023 heatwave here was the June 2023 heatwave in Mexico, which is not present. The El Nino developing still looks pretty different from 2023-24. My records from June 2023 show towns even at 8,000+ in elevation in Central Mexico were running over 90 degrees for highs, v. typical readings in the low 70s. Some of those same towns have had rain-cooled highs in the 60s already this month.

Hope we can catch at least a little of that stuff east of CON. Desperately need to wash some of this pollen down the drain.

Maybe someone will get a good snow strorm this winter,other than that its more than likely going to be AN,we seem to be already headed towards WQBO the next few weeks,more than likely a brick PV probably this winter

Can still see some of it. That little bit last nite not enough unfortunately. Better than nothing though

How's the fert?

I really need rain. Have missed the last two storms completely. Wednesday might be a chance of a few showers.

I don’t understand pro sports getting strikes and balls or yards gained down to a 64th of an inch, and then letting blatantly wrong calls stand.

My Dad and I were LIVID!! Absolute bull on that non-call. Just run to the outfield while we’re at it. Absolutely ridiculous. And then the umpire was a little ***** and wouldn’t look at Baz when he was leaving the game. Inexcusable

Chucky

Unless that SE NH stuff builds back west, Steiner

Looks like there could have been some small hail near the Jones Beach West End.

Kill off entirely? unlikely .. but, attenuation is getting easier to do with the expanding HC, however. Folks also need to start assessing matters in a new paradigm; decadal recency urges that. Since ~2000, the broadening/latitude expansion of the HC has been measured and objectively scienced. A larger envelope circulation does not mean a stronger HC circulation eddy. It in fact means it weakens, with increasing observation of perforations/cut-off and/or TUTTs, combined with weakening trade fields.

Getting ready to wash the car so I know it will rain. I’m sure the water will flash evaporate on it today.

Definitely my kind of weather this weekend. Beautiful combo of sun and tolerable humidity with some bonus late day storms.

my neighbors too....college graduation. they got most of the day in though, and the storm was short. but it blew the tents all over.

We stein.

What’s the point of replay if a bad call can still cost you three fn runs? four now. How is this not an out? Gunnar went to tag him and he ran 7 feet off the baseline.

Looking at RONI, you can see a pretty clear and distinct El Niño and it’s only June!

I had to clear the beach at jones beach after visable CTG lightning. Just clipped by the core, brief heavy rain and a few gusts in the 30s .

74/63 under mostly sunny skies at the lake. Beautiful summer day out here.
