The best month of the year has arrived.

I know. Those pesky solar panels. Our system went online exactly 2 years ago. We just put them on our east/west barn roof not our south facing house roof as I didn't like the esthetics. With a few more hours to go this June it produced 1.1 MWh. at our current electric providers rate of .21kWh that has saved us about $235 this month. It paid all our electric bill and kept my electric Mustang Mache charged as I only charge on sunny days. Currently we also have a $140 credit from May. It will be nice to run our 3 window AC units full blast the next 5 days although we don't have battery storage so we do have to pay for electric at night. The nice thing is during the days we sell excess power back to the grid. That helps the grid on peak usage days. Bring on the heat!!

84 here; clouds rolled in at 3. Tomorrow the inferno begins.

Seems for my location Ninas have delivered the goods ( cold and snow ) the last 6 years versus Ninos which were either not coupled, not focused or just wishy washy, and whatever Tip said in the NE forum.

If we moved the site any distance away from the tree canopy it would be 102-103 easy. It’s ridiculous this is still an issue, and it’s the “official” climate site for the city.

90 was the high 88/66

91 before clouds , we'll see how many made it before clouds and light showers moved in. And if there is enough clearing to rebound,.

Also, when I said we're...I meant that in deference to CT and points SW... Not sure what's up where I am up here is Massivetwoshits but it looks like the situation is evolving into something else. We have Mass Pike little bombs that just erupted. Even triggering warning, meanwhile that MCS itself appears to be weakening? So this all may change the picture some.

I hope it disappears completely if it’s headed toward NYC again. Those folks get hit every couple of days it seems

Cloudy along the I-395 Corridor keeping temps down into the 80’s

0 for 1 on convective attempts here. Wish we upstate NY.

My one caution flag I have is that these things tend to follow the warm advection wing, and that's where all the convection is percolating into the CT valley. I still expect the apex to turn more south than southeast.

I think csnavy was hoping for a moderate Nino earlier this year before it was obvious that there wasn’t going to be? Don’t think snowstorm is being inferred here. Nobody can say whether there will be one or not

My dad is camping up there and had to abandon his campsite in advance of the storm. Fortunately his weather radio worked out in the wilderness.

100%. They also mention the orientation of the high is such that the worst heat favors the mid Atlantic in today’s AFD whereas some previous runs had it centered further SW. Multiple days of 100+ degree heat seem inevitable tho and it will certainly be a dangerous heat wave, but explicitly putting all time record highs in the forecast over the weekend definitely led to more scrutiny over the forecast. I had never seen 106 forecast for my area or 3 days straight of at least 105 as it had until yesterday

Dendy is now installed

Eww

3.71”

There's the warning

I don't understand how you have reached the conclusion that the mid Atlantic will not muster so much as a moderate event....Jesus, what is it with inability of the majority of this forum to accept any dialectical nuance. It's either ALL or NOTHING. The reality is that the coastal plane has a decent shot of a major event this year and history dictates that.

Interesting low level humidity increase in the mountains. Some dewpoints in the mid 70s already. Hancock mesonet site has a heat index of 99° already.

Well we're off to the races here in death valley, both cef and bdl reached 90 so day 1 is in the books

Nice core on that Belchertown cell. 60dbz to 20K on BOX

92/53 HI 89

91 1st day of heatwave for me
