When was the last time you recall the humidity being low while it was raining?

TSA agents now at the entrance to the pool?

what are these wet things coming from the sky?

oops, I missed that somehow!

Glad I checked the most recent muggy meter. Looks like a humid week ahead..

Good guys won game 1!

The s*** you believe "was slashed with a knife, or a box cutter" "the major damage was caused by VANDALS!"

It was a top 10 day of the year here. 81. Mid 50's dp. Working on the house as usual for this summer. Full paint job done. Installing a new wood storm door (seems out of order, but its a long story). Fun chisseling the hinges to be level with the jam. But, nocking off 10 year old hit lists this year is enjoyable. I am going to sleep well tonight. Hope to see a few innings of the sox game.

Picked up a staggering 0.01” sending my MTD to 1.52”

With that last sentence, you'll definitely awaken the great Blizz. It's way to early to awaken him. You'll need to start the fall thread in a few days.

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose? Ramble on, baby, settle down easy Ramble on Rose...

Tomorrow through Monday will see highs reach the upper 70s and lower 80s. It could turn somewhat warmer to end August and start September. However, no excessive heat appears likely through the remainder of August and into the opening days of September. Some showers and thundershowers are possible Sunday night into Monday morning and again on Wednesday and Thursday. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +4.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +2.6°C for the week centered around August 19. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +3.87°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +2.43°C. The ongoing strong El Niño, which has reached super El Niño threshold, will continue to strengthen through the summer. The SOI was -7.95 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.169 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 74% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal August (1991-2020 normal). August will likely finish with a mean temperature near 75.9° (0.2° below normal). Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 0.7° above the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

Rambling in this ideal wx

3.77" here in PWM for Jul/Aug total. Unfortunately, that includes the 1" I recorded in only 10 minutes on the 13th (1.19" event total).

Hopefully it’s not 42 rain CAD in winter. With massive Nino , it’s possible

That's excessive for me too. I experienced 116 out in the desert and it was way too much. I think 110 and higher is too much. It feels like being stung with burning needles. When JFK had a heat index of 117 on back to back days in 2019 I think it was although the high was only 99 on both days that was too much. I'm fine with 103 degrees and 30 percent humidity but not 99 degrees and 50 percent humidity. The hottest I've experienced in NY is 103 I dont buy those 106-107 degrew temperatures reported on the south shore of Nassau county the last two summers. The houses are just too close together and there's way too much traffic to accurately report temperature, I learned that after relocating here and having 2 acres of land to properly place weather sensors I'm always within a degree or two of Mount Pocono even though I'm south of there and over 300 feet lower in elevation. I experienced July 1977 in Manhattan when it hit 104 but was too young to remember it, all I remember from that summer is being scared during the big blackout and all the police sirens. Although I have issues with how the heat index is calculated because I hated the 81 degrees with a dew point of 81 in June 1996 during a supposedly cool summer the heat index was only 93 but it felt more like 113 to me. My big problem with this summer are all the stuck fronts and cutoff nonsense that's not normal for us. I'd like either hot and sunny or cool and sunny. If fronts are going to come in they should just keep moving. I love my pristine blue skies just like we had today. Next week looks like a humid disgusting sky nightmare again.

Yeah...like I said this morning, we get a little wedgie up here. 9 months of CAD hell incoming.

Lots of dews SOP overall there . Take

Most folks here love the muggy meter!
