What the f with these storm chances every single weekend

A brutally disappointing  summer

Bring on the next heatwave

2.73 total for me. Enough for things to stay green through the end of August

And there it is I have annexed my first heatwave of the year with a 91 today. In fact 5 of the last 6 days have been above 90

8th 90 of the season

@winterwarlock you at the beach? 

@Allsnowyes i was down at the jersey shore....10 am to 3pm...got dark clouds and left but was solid before that with mix of sun and clouds and steamy.  Got into torrential rains though for part of trip hom on 18

finally summer weather, today was tough at 94 and heat index over 100. Usually i am acclimated by now but this was only the 5th 90.

94 for me today, looks like temps are overperforming big time...too bad i had the 87 yesterday because the previous 2 day were 90 plus so no heatwave yet...but good shot on Thursday and Friday

91 imby for 2nd day in a row

For the past 5 days the forecast said heavy thunderstorms  late Monday afternoon

Currently mostly sunnny 91 and the most sun ive seen in awhile

It’s really the humidity. We haven’t had any sustained heat. The beach is empty once again despite the morning being full sunshine. Not a drop of rain fell here yesterday after the predawn showers. 

Because yet again the mets are scaring people away. Its a damn shame

Wtf...now thunderstorms  likely for the 4th? Those mid range models need to be tossed. Theyve been awful for months now. Seems like every forecast 3-5 days out changes by the time we get to 24 hours

89 with heat index of 98

Partly sunny

90..there it is. My 4th of the season

Temps and heat indices waaaaaaay overperforming

This. If I had a dollar for every time someone said it would rain because of a lightning bolt on weather.com I'd be a billionaire. 

Synoptic rains in the summer don't happen. It's gonna be hit or miss most of the time and it's almost always focused on the late afternoon hours. 

Well the tv and radio mets need to do a better job relaying this on a holiday weekend. I knew it wouldnt be a washout but I didn't  know it would actually be our best beach weekend thus far of a slow start to the year

Im upset moreso they keep forecasting mostly cloudy days

Another busted forecast. Both Saturday and Sunday way more sun and better than expected. The futility of mets is hurting the beach season which has seen so so crowds because the mets keep forecasting showers every weekend and instead there is sun

We had 3 inches last week. Its fine if we dont get anymore

.70 yesterday

6 day total now at an even 3 inches

Enough...

Just heard my first circada chirpjng drying out its wings...that is a sign folks....put the miserable bs weather behind and go on a nice dry and hot sunny stretch.....LET'S GO!

@winterwarlock anything good? 

The worst of the storms wrre training about 10 miles to my northwest. Did get into rounds of storms with thunder and lightning  but nothing too bad. Ended up with 1.80 over the last 24 hours bringing my now onto the 6th day summer is ruined event total to 2.46

And yes it can stop raining now. We have enough moisture to keep lawns green and growing for all of July

Finally got into a 15 minute deluge now winding down

That storm in Hunterdon gave me thunder and some dark clouds but skirted away to west with no rain

Still holding at an uneventful .20 for the day

Meh

Picked up .17 total from three different  storms today

Grand total now .83 over 5 days

.07 yesterday...missed all the big stuff

.66 grand total on this week long summer train wreck

Its off the rails boys on the longest days of summer

There's 2 months of summer left though more like 3 with recent September heat. 

There is something  traumatizing  to me about losing sunshine and warmth on the week of the longest days of the year. Sure i can handle a couple of days but now likely 10 straight days of clouds with showers probably in half of them. Screams summertime  eh?

When you lost June like we have it puts alot of pressure on July to deliver. Haven't  had one legit beech weekend and now this is 5th weekend of summer season now 33% over

I would also hate 60s for  Christmas
