All Activity

Everything dies after the convection hits far W MA and CT later this week . All the hi res kill it before the valley. Shocking

It’s been nice these last few days to stand up or floss or change the channel and not break out in a sweat.

Born and raised in and around the Detroit area. Had to move this past December to the DC area for work and education. After being out here for a while I can say I really enjoy the Appalachians for hiking and camping. DC area is pretty cool and has its own perks. But overall Michigan is my home and being by water is what helps soothe my soul. Potomac and the Chesapeake is not too viable for swimming. Having access to lakes within 30-45 mins of me is the best. And i have full intention on coming back to MI in a few years once my career gets for straightened out. But if I had to pick an area it would be within 30 mins of an ocean. COL aside like FL. Plus side of tropical systems minus the damage. Edit: Cant forget about my beloved UP of MI where i spent a-lot of time in growing up and into my adulthood. The hiking is unreal.

CBS 21’s Steve Knight, whom iirc posts very blue moon here, is leaving the station tomorrow. The station tried to screw him on his new contract

Secadas?

Low of 68, high of 90.5. Dew points in the low 70's most of the day.

We are less than a week away from met Fall beginning. Looks like extended summer on today's model runs with a very hot first week of September, especially for middle and western parts of the area. With luck they will be too extreme, much like they were with the late month cool shot that had some upper 40s showing up in East Tennessee from around 10 days out. It did get into the mid-50s the last two nights. But 5-8 degrees can be huge either for lows or highs. Hopefully those modeled mid 90s to low 100s verify cooler by 5+ degrees.

An Icon. A genuinely good person. Not the biggest fan of her music, but that is trivial given her humanity. I would have voted for her for president.

I believe most modeling has it peaking in November, faster than 82/83 & 97/98. If that's what happens, an earlier peak, it doesn't necessarily have to exceed those years. It still could, but it's not a given. The faster it has developed, the faster it fades? Idk, just sayin'.

Why can’t every summer day be like the last two?

Looks like an opportunity for a 90 coming up in the next week locally. Potentially this Sunday and again sometime next week! not done with the heat/humidity just yet…

Now that everyone's convinced that the el nino won't peak as high, watch the 5C peak in February run verify.

Nice! I got a quick glimpse, it was mostly obscured by trees from my vantage point

i want to hear cicadas on thanksgiving

Yeah so much for my thought of a cooler start to September yesterday

The warm start to each month has been interesting to say the least. Its been hot spell followed by a lot of rain/storms to cooler finish.

The chart I posted shows temperature anomaly, while your chart shows temperature. August will rank a little higher on a temperature basis than it will on an anomaly basis because August is a relatively warm month.

With how the NPAC is evolving combined with the signals for ridging to focus more across the Southeast or off the coast, we could be setting up for a well above average at least first half of Fall. This doesn't mean we'll get some cool periods, probably even some pretty cool nights, but the overall theme is going to be quite above.

You forgot the "+9 to +10 will mean we go the other way big time" bargaining

Picked up two pairs of tuned skis today at the shop!

12z operationals appeared to make a coherently warm move en masse on that run, too.
