  1. Yeah it definitely wasn't one of those winters with lots of days in the 50s. Average to slightly below average temps and frequent light snowfalls with a good amount of snowcover days. At least it felt and seemed like winter even though we missed the big snowstorms.
  2. I hope Jaxson Dart takes over the job very quickly for you guys. No use wasting any time with Russell Wilson.
  3. I had a cookout during the late afternoon and early evening. To me the mid to upper 70s here felt perfect for it.
  4. Models are looking hot in the long range though. Enjoy the fairly comfortable first 8 or 9 days of August. We're probably going to have a heat wave during the 2nd week of the month.
  5. I never said I wanted a deluge. I would have liked a couple heavy downpours to deliver a half inch to 1 inch to give everything out there a very good watering, instead of just a quarter inch. It's very dry here because we've gotten almost no rain since that flooding 2 and half weeks ago. But a quarter inch is a better than nothing ... I'll take it. Temp is all the way down to 72 too. I'll be going outside to run shortly and it will be nice to run in rain cooled air.
  6. I got only 0.10" from the t-storm that brushed my area earlier. Now we're starting to add to that a little bit with some steady light to moderate rain and I'm up to 0.15" for the day so far. To me it appears I'm not going to get too much rain today. Maybe we end up with a quarter inch, just barely enough to water the garden. I was hoping for more significant rain today.
  7. Yeah I was just working in the vegetable garden, and I heard it constantly. Seeing some signs on radar that that storm is trying to build south a little bit. Maybe we'll get some heavy rain from it.
  8. Ridiculous, but I guess you can understand our area being extra nervous after having the incredibly bad luck of having 2 of our worst storms ever in a week and a half period earlier this month.
  9. Now 15z no longer targeting our area, but who the heck knows. Radar certain looks good with lots of action in eastern PA and a few small cells popping up in Hunterdon County.
  10. It is very dry here right now, so I'm hoping for some heavy rain. I'll take the 1 to 2 inches that this HRRR run shows for our area, but of course we don't want the huge flooding amounts that this run shows for Monmouth County. Obviously it's difficult for the model to pinpoint exactly where those jackpot amounts will occur. The next run will probably look different. Who knows.
  11. And I see 12z GFS now brings in the blazing heat during the 2nd week of the month, maybe the hottest weather of the summer. A long way to go for details on how hot it will get, but we have building support for significant heat as Don pointed out. We need to enjoy the comfortable 1st week of the month before it gets very hot again.
  12. 97 with a dewpoint of 67 here. Hot, but it doesn't feel as bad as I thought it would. Dewpoint of 67 isn't terrible.
  13. I see the Euro backed down from that and now keeps it comfortable next week. It certainly would be nice to get a long break from the heat.
  14. Temps on Friday are probably gonna stay around 70 due to the clouds and NE winds. That is going to be quite a shock after this tremendous heat wave.
  15. I see Newark is already up to 98. They're probably going higher than 100 today.
  16. Euro now brings the 90s back early to mid next week. Looks like a break for a few days and then we go back to the heat. It's 94 with a dewpoint of 67 here right now. Doesn't feel terrible today.
  17. 12z NAM 3km was a joke with how far off it was with the heavy rain it had going through this area late morning and midday. HRRR much closer to reality. I'm hoping for some rain today since it's very dry here. We've had very little since the floods a couple weeks ago. It's not looking great for rain today though ... HRRR has very little and it appears that we have only a slight chance.
  18. I'm thinking mid 90s on Monday and upper 90s to near 100 Tueday and Wednesday. Quite a heat wave, but that will be it for the heat for awhile. Next Friday and Saturday look beautiful with low 80s and low humidity.
  19. Only a brief moderate shower here as the heavy stuff is missing just to the south. So one cell missed me a few miles to the north and another a few miles to the south. Bad luck for rain here so far.
