Great band!!...I doubt he ever expected a song to be written with his name as the title. Lol And I highly doubt he received an early distant warning while living in his subdivision prior to the release of the song.

Same thing here, unfortunately. Measured 0.17” since Friday. The other day was plastered with flood warnings just a few miles west, south, and east of me, yet we were sandwiched in between and got nada.

finished with 2.7"

1877-78 is probably the closest to an extreme east based event. Unfortunately I cannot change the 1991-2020 climatology for this map (not an option), so you have to extrapolate that the anomalies in Nino 3 here were likely extreme for its time since the baseline SST’s have warmed since then.

You got 3 weeks of rain in a day. How much do you all want to “make a dent”? Honest question.

The Nino 1+2 regions not fully cooling off from 2023-2024 super El Nino for the first time was an early signal something was different this time. Notice how much warmer Nino 1+2 was in 2025 than all the previous years following super El Niños. Almost like a bridge between the two super El Niños only three years apart.

Bavi failed to go annular, but remains a monster of a storm

On Sunday, July 5, PHL had a high temperature of 94 making it the 21st day this summer. Not sure about the other stations in your area, however.

Who uses toilet paper or paper towels to wipe sweat anyway? Kinda odd.

Far cry from folks in CT and most modeling was spitting out 4+ here for days. We take, but it didn’t even make a dent

Ju-ply is back tomorrow.

72 / 62 with most the area cleared out, we've turned the corner from sunday night 7/5 - 7/7 hung up front, into a gorgeous early July day sunny, ;ow - mid 80s. While we have scattered storms each of the next two days Thu / Fri, both should have much of the day dry / sunny and warm, with Friday a chance at 90 with enough sun in the warmest locations. The weekend looks mainly dry and great (perhaps some scattered storms Saturday night). The trough staarts to lift out with the expanding western heat pushing into the area by the 14th. The period 7/14 and beyond warmer with next heat surge.

We probably need something like this to reconfigure the Pacific, even if it means this coming season sucks, of which I am not convinced..

Was that today's Tom Sawyer? I heard it was a mean, mean ride.

My former 8th grade teacher and freshman football coach Tom Sawyer began the football program at Londonderry...hence the name change from Rangers to Lancers.

Made a comment on this a while back but isn't this sort of a product of the declining +AMO as we transition to a -NAO regime?

.94"

I went to Pinkerton Fuck Londonderry

Wonder if we’ll all go 10 straight days with no rain ?

A major issue in the Londonderry area.. https://vnews.com/2026/04/06/new-hampshire-pfas-remediation-cost/ How the hell does the city of Londonderry agrees to a settlement with Saint-Gobain for only 1.7 million dollars ??? Residents of Londonderry are furious with the settlement. St Gobain raked in around 50 BILLION last year in revenue..

Looks like 2.15 will do it. Definitely was needed because local pond barely responded.

Yes, I hear that....but first of all, I feel as though at this range, the reluctance to forecast an event of an unprecedented magnitude/nature should take precedence with any ultimate capitulation reserved for closer lead times. In other words....in July, it's safer to heavily incorporate analogs and if it still looks unprecedented later this summer and into the fall, then revisit. Secondly, this is just me musing when I offer guesstimates in the forum like that...it's not as though I'm issuing any type of published forecast online or anything.

Dewpoint down a couple of ticks, nice breeze, it actually feels fairly pleasant this morning.
