The NYC micronet had multiple 100° and warmer readings back in June 2021. But there was a strong sea breeze so the shoreline was much cooler. Models still outside the reliable range for details of where the sea breeze front and compressional warming just to the NW of the front will set up next week.

mm... not sure you looked hard enough for the rain ? the GFS/Euro runs from 12z yesterday, for early/mid day today ( 18z) and it clearly had a field of QPF in the region - I guess you can argue the degree of inundation but if one is being objectively open minded about weak flow/summer/and green on charts, they might paint picture in their mind that includes the possibility of it not being sunny and 84 lol

I'm trying to remember all the most uncomfortable times my power went out. Number 1 would have to be August 2003 when we had that massive power outage that covered 1/3 of the country and eastern Canada. It was the hottest day of the entire summer (95 degrees) and no breeze even at night. I was too young to remember July 1977 but I think that would have been first if I had any memories of it outside of sitting in the dark with my family and hearing lots of sirens outside. Next up would be a 4 hour power outage we had in January 2018 I think it was. I was getting ready to see a total lunar eclipse at 11:30 that night and it was brutally cold and very windy and the power went out right after sunset and it stayed out until 11 PM. The high winds did it and I was freezing for hours without power. The wind came right into my house. Next on the list is November a few years ago (I forget the year), when we had 8 tornadoes in one day on Long Island. One of the tornadoes (an EF2) was close by-- I never saw it-- but had no power for 4 hours and was shivering all afternoon. The power came back around sunset. Next is last August when I lost power for 4 hours again when it was sunny outside, no bad weather at all. It was in the low to mid 80s and with a light wind it felt hot without any a/c. Next would be March 2018 my power went out for 2 hours during the first of four noreasters that month. It wasn't as bad as the other ones I listed because the power came back pretty quickly.

lol, there does seem to be a subtle shift in the seasons the last few years. I could use some Vitamin D even if it comes along with 90 degree weather. I think the trails could use a breather as well.

We tried to tell em. Yesterday was okay, but today and tomorrow are wasted days. Next

2% tor added on 1300z SPC OTLK for today

It’s literally gonna rain just about all day . A day ago models had nothing

It takes a couple minutes. A literal monkey could do it.

yeah, I was just going over the more detailed mass distribution and timing and it's really those two days 'at this time' ... I mean, the ensembles of the EPS and GEFs would allow the operational runs to to 'fill those days in' *thu-sat. They were sort of more like that yesterday. It's not believable one way or the other at this range... but these latest runs are cooling the 850s by a couple clicks each day after that. It's not abundantly clear how that is doing that, but both the Euro and GFS did that. It's almost like they're fabricating/introducing emergent little erosion factors.

About to rain, and the grass needs it with stein lurking in the bushes

Amazing...Another inch of rain last night. My poor plants are drowning. 6inches now for the month.

My wife said to fill up the cars with gas just in case we have to sit in there with the car AC if the power goes out lol I can't think of another conversation I'd rather not have more than that one haha

With a goal to get down to the Cape and me moving into a state of retirement/semi-retirement, we decided to sell Westborough and rent in Providence (where my wife works) for a year. The house in Westborough just went on the market, so I need to keep up with that lawn until it goes under contract.

Time ran out in late Napril for those whacked few hold outs

Those storms are going to explode when the cap breaks

Too bad no vort coming through

Except that it takes 5 minutes to install a window unit, close the doors, and turn it on... So oh my god, t-minus whatever days:hrs:seconds to the crushing reality of 5 minutes of effort I guess ... lol

I feel like it's a Tuesday and Wednesday deal for the real hot stuff. Thursday may introduce a seabreeze and relegate the big heat inland. But by then heights fall and the tprchy 850s are gone...albeit still very warm. We are in a warm pattern coming up.

No way ...

Those that didn't install are going to be in deep, deep trouble. Time is running out folks. Once this heat/humidity comes it isn't going away for quite some time. You've been warned

Hang in there. I'm sure we'll eventually get the background state that we got in late 2013 until the super el nino ended in early/mid-2016. The -PDO streak can't last the entire decade, right?

Yeah infrastructure is not really political, I think everyone agrees that needs to change. Let's get the grid conversation now because in a few days none of us might have power to do it then lol.

1991 had a much hotter spring at least for us. We just don't get that kind of weather anymore especially in May.

It was mixing out a little more in the afternoons, but yeah…mid level temps were a hair cooler. I just thought it was more impressive in duration

The grid conversation was kind of on topic I think, it is directly related to the record heat we are anticipating. Trust me I'd much rather talk about mist and clouds than 108 degrees lol
