PT time?! My grass is drowning!

FFE soon?

Scott prays for rain, and now? LOL.

Your lawn thanks you...

WE RAIN! Scott will have to watch for basement flooding! 12z HRRR ydy nailed this TRW++.

Usually with BDFs, tstms are severely limited in eastern sections. Many areas lot of fog with FQT LTG last night. How often does that happen?

Aug 2000 overnight supercell comparison Scott? The one that had the TOR? Crazy LTG w/ that! GHG special.

Look at this EIR GIF loop. Within a decaying MCS anvil area, three distinct new cells simultaneously blow up? Don't see that too often in these parts. You would think the elevated instability would have been largely used up. Associated w/ a weak s/w at 700/500.

Probably the most intense CG barrage on Cape Cod in awhile, and with no CoastalWx EML present?

Laptop shock again? Or power pole fire?

Providing historical context is not pushing an agenda. No wx event should be treated in a vacuum, but that is what done a lot these days, hence everything is "worst ever" or "unprecedented."

The worst heat wave on record for the East occurred before this date range in 1911. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1911_Eastern_North_America_heat_wave BOS hit 104 on July 4th. So is 11 days earlier in 2025 low 100s in BOS really that extraordinary or that early, relatively speaking, esp. since avg temps everywhere are up by "alarming standards" in the last 100+ years? And add in the UHI effect at many climo sites, and things aren't quite as impressive as they appear. I would argue this levels things close to equal as to as far as extremes go for the region. Facts are meaningless w/o context.

Usually in FL, the 80 DPs are confined to immediate coastal areas. I do not think BOS has ever had a 80 DP. 78 or 79 max.

I don't see any indication DPs hit 80 in eastern MA or anywhere in New England from the standard airport observations. Highest I could find is 78. And DPs were lower near the coast from the sea breeze.
