I actually have an official coop rain gauge but I don’t really have a good spot to set it up. So many trees in the back. Maybe on the side yard I can manage but even there is not ideal as there is some overhang there from a big oak tree. Gotta convince Megan to let me put it more toward the front yard. Lol
I’m expecting muggy 78-83 here. NNE looks better for 90+. It will def feel summery but in the same way as yesterday.
Wednesday is the day to try and sneak U80s-90 here if winds can stay more SW. The high nosing in from the NE turns the flow more SSE for Thu.
I think DIT logged off until the heat waves come back on the models. Hopefully he at least gets a few good posts in for Friday's one day of hot weather.
Euro kind of screws us for heat next week....that high in Nova Scotia is the culprit. We'll see if we get rid of it as it gets closer. It's on the ensembles too.
64F with full sun here at 3pm. That’s pretty crazy this time of the year. Just saw Rangeley is 45F lol.
That wouldn’t be so funny if it was a backdoor or east flow cutoff...but NW flow at peak heating that is pretty impressive.
Yeah there was widespread damage. Not sure if Tolland got hit specifically but there were a ton of other hail/wind reports and even a few TORs.
A massive derecho hit the Great Lakes before he system reached NE.
Wiz and Ryan may know more about the CT-specific impacts from that event.
Today is the 22 year anniversary of the ORH macroburst on 5/31/98. ASOS gusted near 100mph and a 104mph wind gust was recorded at holy cross. There were probably pockets of 110-120 based on the damage.
I remember the event well. I think it hit between 10-11pm. Trees down everywhere the next morning.
Those weren't even that bad here....1930s was mostly west of us and those other two weren't even real droughts, lol....the only real drought of consequence in NE was the late 1960s. Particularly 1964-1966.
I’ve played both Putnam and Thompson but it’s been a while. Good courses. One of them was pretty long...I think Putnam?
I only got out once last year but somehow shot 83.
