anyone getting close to 130 degrees out there lol?

Latest Euro keeps the strongest heat this summer out West with a wetter pattern for us.

why is the western pacific running the show and why isn't the eastern pacific warming as quickly?

Especially if one chooses to go back and forth. My father-in-law and I went up Hunt in August 1973. As he'd hiked his scout troop all over the AT in NNJ/SNY, the trail's northernmost 5 miles was the obvious route. He was willing to wait at the summit while I went to Pamola and back, 2.2 miles in 1:50. Next summer a co-worker and I climbed the Abol trail, shortest (and hottest!) way to the top. The lower half of the open slide section was moved into the woods some years back, but in 1974 we baked in the steep south aspect all the way.

85.6°/68.6° at 10:30am. Gross.

Oh look more smoke.

I am not at all implying 2014 is a good Pacific match....all I am saying is that I don't think it will be a bad arctic analog...that said, I won't be suprised if get a decent look around AK next season, just not to the extent of 2014.

One aspect I've noticed over the many years of guidance behavior ...and actually have use it/anticipated it at times, is that the general model ambit will flavor a pattern like that above, or its antithesis, with surprising coherence sometimes in time ranges of D11-15, only to then lose it. In fact, the interim runs as the days then click by, even attempting to reverse the signal in mangled forms and discontinuity from run to run. All but lost. But then the original signal ultimately came back ... say D5-7, just perhaps not as amplified as the original vision.

Charlie so why again are all stations you mentioned Coatesville, West Chester and Phoenixville all clearly chilling the past and warming the current. See the raw vs adjusted for each below.

why does his station drop at noon every day?

You've been telling me the problem is the act of making corrections or even just determining if there are biases, errors, or mistakes is fraudulent and should never be done under any circumstance.

MDR region cool-might inhibit some tropical formation this year if that holds...

That is simpy an equal chance outlook... far from a forecast. The extended Euro and GFS models paint a normal to below month - not saying there won't be a warmer week in the mix.

2014 is in a class of its own for QBO matches right now......its also a pretty damn good match for solar, too....so more reason to be skeptical of much arctic blocking. We are probably going to need to get it done on the Pacific side, which is what the CANSIPS does. That is also consistent with my very early idea, but extremely low confidence obviously.

Still a vague signal for heat circa 11th -15th ... It's not as pretty in the guidance as 3 days ago, but the telecon spread offers correlation room for it, and there is some attempt - albeing weakly at presetnt - in the operational model versions to -PNAP that flow structure across the mid latitude continent. That's code for this kind of jet (tendency) ... If it fades, it fades ... but the signal's still there.

SST Anomaly

Not nearly as sunny as yesterday - i counted 0 clouds the majority of the day. Warmer start - slightly warmer 850 MB temps itll will be close the 90 degree mark - warm regardless. Wondwer how much breaks or clouds we have Sat - Sun.

Barrier islands in the mid 60s. Might be about as warm as they get since as the day goes on the seabreeze only strengthens.

Deep deep deep summer. Love it

People were concerned for rain happening like at all on the weekend but I have a different take ( seein' as anyone at all cares haha). I don't mind humid thundery forms of rain. It's the 55 degree shit spray constant shart out of ole Labrador's anus that grades at nerves for me. This doesn't appear to be of that ilk tomorrow and Saturday. Having a frontalysis stalled through the area with theta -e pooling under solar max sun is great cloud video op for one. But I dunno ...otherwise as a Met, I like actionable weather, and having CAPEy air amid a convergence zone can be fun lightning shows and interesting rain rate thunderstorms. It's also not likely to be raining all the time. All of which is happening in still mild to warm air.

79/65 ok it feels like summer now

could see some bangers around daybreak too
