CAPE

Heavy rain and Thunder here at work in Easton.

84/75 Sultry

Tropical juice and lift.

You can feel the ramp up in the juice tonight here. Very tropical feel. This informal verbiage surely has weirdo ohleary perplexed.

Plenty of juice plus h5 shortwave energy should contribute to some impressive rainfall rates and possible flash flooding tomorrow afternoon/evening.

Long shot for a wildcard especially with mounting injuries. Sanchez now on the IL. They acquired Alex Jackson(who?) from the Yankees. Why not just call up Basallo? There would be no pressure on the kid because the Orioles aren't realistically in contention.

Latest QPF forecast from WPC has 2-4" for the region over the next 5 days.

.03" Dropped the temp 10 degrees. 88/72 before the shower.

Shower moving up from the south on the doorstep. Its weakening but might be enough to wet the ground.

12z HRRR, 3km NAM, and 6z Euro look interesting for eastern parts of the region as the remnant low tracks ENE.

Typical MA summer. At least it doesnt look boring. Nothing worse than brutal heat and humidity with no trigger for storms. Snippet from the latest Mount Holly AFD-

Currently 82 after a high of 84. Was a tad more humid this morning but the dews mixed out. So nice out right now.

Should be even nicer tomorrow.

1.45" total

Dover radar effed up again. I was looking at it this morning when it was pouring here and it had nothing over me- it was depicting reflectivity from sometime earlier. 062 NOUS61 KAKQ 020837 FTMDOX Message Date: Jul 02 2025 08:37:56 KDOX RADAR HAS BEEN PLACED IN STANDBY MODE DUE TO DEGRADED VELOCITY DATA.

The last half hour or so is the most impressive rainfall I have seen here in a month. Up to 1.3" for the event. That's a little more than half the total rainfall for June.

Getting some decent downpours this morning. Up to 0.95"

Getting the usual split so far but somehow managed to pick up 0.52". Can't remember the last time there has been more than a 5 min heavy downpour here.

Slight risk for excessive rainfall too.

A noisy thunderstorm woke me up around 2am. Ofc it passed just to the south. Picked up .08" in a very brief downpour.

The pitching is just plain bad, and it puts pressure on the offense. This is a lost season realistically, but maybe the second half can provide some optimism for next year if Bradish and Wells can get back and be productive.

They are top 4. Very tough schedule but on paper probably the most talented team. If they stay healthy this might be their year. Just need to execute in the playoffs when its all on the line. They are super motivated.

Eflin lol. Put him on IR. Throwing batting practice.
