The warmth getting gypped is down right unfair. Next week's -NAO is a natural progression down wind and time of warm period in late winter and early spring. We're definitely getting that hangover but the shit unfairness is that we're not getting much of a party of this warm up, first.

1976 also had the April heat wave. Unlike 2002, it never got that hot again in many places, especially in New England. That year turned cold early, as October 1976-January 1977 was record cold. This year is the 50th anniversary of that Easter/Patriot Weekend heat wave.

Raleigh said water restrictions will go into effect when falls lake dips to 85% capacity. As of two days ago it was at 87% which is well well below normal for this time of year when it is almost always kept at full pool. Matter of when not if now

Agreed! As a teenager I would mow our small front lawn. It was green, neat and nearly 100% crabgrass. The mowed weed seemed to have more lasting power In adverse conditions. As always …..

What kind of damage will there be where the warmth didn’t get fudged?

As opposed to this? I'll take it Blue lines don't matter as much this time of year with that 1E to 36th power fusion bomb in the sky. What could make it worse is if that -NAO is real and pins a rhea wheel here

Yeah, the atmosphere seems to be following the April 2023 developing El Niño script. Both April 2023 and 2026 have featured early record 90°+ warmth in the Northeast. Then a reversal to cooler and strong blocking to close out the month.

With that modeled airmass early next week I’m not too upset about the warmth getting fudged up a but this week. I don’t need fruit trees breaking bud. The forsythia flower buds are just starting to swell.

Summertime low of 64. Things start to shift on Sunday it seems. MDT and THV topped out at 87 yesterday and LNS at 86. Carry on.

We need rain where I live, but hopefully temps will stay near or slightly above normal. We'll see what actually happens.

Ugh. Here comes the 60 day rainy season..

Set a new record high for the date at 87.2 degrees, old mark was 85.0 from 2012. Absolutely overly hot for this time of year!

Strobe lighting on the privates?

Man, thank god for backdoor fronts...almost makes the 33-and-rain days worth it.

Days and days of 50s right through early May.

Have you ever aerated it? That can do wonders.

Agree, it's hard to break this pattern. It's rained twice in the last 2 months. Yes, twice. Add that to the dry fall and winter....yikes. Everyone around here has not had to mow their lawn/weeds yet. If they do, it's nothing but dust.

Yeah, we may get one of our famous spring cut-off low patterns.

Man next week is gonna suck.

It’s always been there since I got the new one

Yeah, that was a good light show to myself. That Providence to Marshfield on south corridor got nailed. Hrrr makes it again. Big MUCAPE spike.

Def warm down there, but it’s time to get your Davis off the deck and back on the lawn.

Yeah ive tried to in the past too just didnt do it the last few years. I dont need it looking perfect, i dont care too much about weeds and dandelions and stuff, i just dont want bare patches and shit growth.

Thankfully all the AC were humimg.with dews and temps again in 60’s.Another warm night on the good side of the door

April 15th and I had to turn on the AC. It was pretty nasty yesterday. I will always remember 2002 for that heat. It started in April and didn't end till September.
