Temps are peaking now. 92/74/102. Highest dew of the stretch, and I can tell. Smoke, and mid to upper 80's tomorrow will feel reasonable with 80-85 the rest of the week. Lake influence will be a little stronger with the chance of stms for the end of the week.

Yeah…there’s been some studies on it. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/277376102_Enhanced_Positive_Cloud-to-Ground_Lightning_in_Thunderstorms_Ingesting_Smoke_from_Fires

91 BDL We knew

Wonder if we undercut our high temperatures with this smoke? Looks like some the the solar radiation readings in NE MD are dropping a tad due to the smoke/haze.

Due to more particles suspended aloft?

Much cleaner look to the sky up this way now. Mostly just some cirrus mixed with blue skies.

89. We trying.

Terrible. Glad he’s still here with us.

Indeed. We are on the verge of easily surpassing 1997 in every aspect very soon….

101F/39C at downtown Toronto, Pearson cooler.

Not sure of its legitimacy, but I saw 105F in Big Bay. The next highest yoop numbers were a few 102s as you mentioned.

Wonder if the smoke will increase CG frequency and intensity. Let’s get a yore light show.

What a beaut

Thats all good points. I feel like the excess moisture is a huge thing. The assumption that El Nino always means dry has been failing in recent years, especially with stronger Ninos. Really thinking we get some good wet paste storms this year.

Yawn.

Smoke definitely held back temps today .

There’s a possibility of exceeding 1018 mb in Darwin on Thursday (7/16), which would be only the 2nd day on record back to 1991 per the SOI daily pressure records. That record high is 1018.35 mb. Even that could be challenged. This is courtesy of a 1040 S Australian polar high. Another strong polar high is progged to do similar next week in this typical El Niño pattern that brings Darwin pressure up.

Looks like Mexico City out there. 79.7° after a high of 82.9°.

Smoke Stein ? https://x.com/growingwisdom/status/2077106682698645979?s=46&t=dhcbvkjmRcyBVQtDxJ3lRg

If only we had everything come together here lol

Looks like our area is worse tomorrow as well. Dense smoke plume arrives tomorrow. https://x.com/weather_buffalo/status/2077091092860694878 The latest HRRR shows some absolutely insane smoke on Thursday across WNY. If it comes to fruition it would be much worse than what we experienced a few years ago in 2023.
