  1. Loving the GFS right now. That 18z on 9/5 is now mid-60s or less imby for the 3rd run in a row.
  2. Tank, get the top draft pick, use it on a pitcher who has to get Tommy John surgery a year and a half later, rinse and repeat.
  3. Can at least no longer say that all of the losses were by 2 runs or more.
  4. Bob Nutting doesn’t own any of those organizations.
  5. As a Pirates fan, the proper word in place of the bolded is “if”.
  6. Looks like we could add a couple more 90 degree days this week. Last full week of met summer, it was hot last year at this time too and we got a beautiful September.
  7. Maybe they’ll get some 100s this week to brighten the mood. (Meaning EJ and his warminista crew)
  8. Maybe they’re just counting on a lot of tropical systems to keep temperatures down in that region. It will be September, after all.
  9. Not that I put much stock into CPC maps, but this doesn’t look terrible:
  10. I’m still feeling burned (literally) by September 2015-2019. But I guess all I have to do is look at last year, when August 20-27 went 85, 87, 90, 88, 89, 93, 86, 87 imby and then we still got a 2 week dry period in September where several days stayed in the 60s and a couple nights dropped into the 30s.
  11. I’d post the corresponding DP map, but beggars can’t be choosers and optimism is better.
  12. It’s looking like there may be some hope here. Not for a nice string of windows open nights, but for days that “only” get into the mid 80s by the weekend.
  13. Some 40 degree gradient between Pillow and Short Pump.
  14. Sometimes you need a GFS clown map to get through Monday morning of a hot week:
  15. No, actually it was weather. She was insisting that Henri would be a non-event, while he thought it would blast New England as a major hurricane.
  16. Other dude looks like he got knocked the F out. Guilty by association?
  17. The experience seems to be, we often underperform when forecast to hit 90 or 91, and overperform when forecast to hit 78 or 79. So that tells you everything you need to know. Getting to 90+ 5 days in a row here is hard, even in the middle of July.
  18. Yeah, I don’t think 5 days in a row of 93+ is in the cards at MDT. It becomes a more interesting case for me, as the average high here is 81, which would mean a high of 90 Tues-Sat. I don’t think that’s out of the question.
  19. Does JB use the antiquated “three days of 90 degrees or above” definition of a heatwave, or the official WMO definition? If it’s the former, then it’s well within the realm of possibility.
  20. Yeah, this “back end of August will be hot” prediction will unfortunately be true. Unfortunate because I don’t want heat, but also unfortunate because as I recall, it came from Joe Bastardi and that means he’ll be right on something.
  21. I remember that being an incredibly cold month in Madison, WI (where I was at the time). Data backs that up. Could see how one of those arctic fronts could blast into Florida.
  22. Wait, hold up a minute. It snowed in Ocala, Florida in October?!
  23. I can even deal with that, given that it’ll still be well into the 80s there in October, so it’ll never really feel like Halloween.
