Saguaro

Finally the first peeks of sun today behind that line as it moved off to the SE.

Yea it's been solid overcast draw the shades mood all day. The line arrived here about ten minutes ago and the only thing noteworthy is torrential rain. No thunder or wind or anything like what's happening in NH and SNE. The only excitement I've seen in Harrison is the mini tornado outbreak back in July 2018. Multiple hits in Bridgton and one lifted as it crossed long lake moving into Harrison.

It's pretty remarkable how consistent warm fronts are in dying on our doorstep. Even when it's not the low level crud, as today proves.

IZG with the ultra rare 73 dp at the moment. Today has been surprisingly soupy.

Anything south of Bethel ME has fizzled. Even those have no polygons so they must not be very impressive.

Looks like that cell collapsed pretty fast. After it moved through we finally broke out into the sun after being plagued with high overcast most of the day. I was in Naples and Rome last month and I noticed the same thing with the latitude vs weather. It was remarkable how consistently they were able to both get into and hold onto a solid summer airmass and not have it constantly assaulted by backdoors, unrelenting buzzsaw troughs, heat ridges getting cut in half, marine layers, cloud debris, et al.

Little cell blowing up in southern oxford and the fishtail of cumberland county, moving NNE. Hearing lots of thunder and some rain starting now.

cod satellite is broken today. Lots of clouds putting a damper on highs so mid 80s are going to be as warm as it gets. Yesterday was spectacular, a day earlier than I expected the marine sludge to get dislodged. Forecast looks terrible for any more sun before next Tuesday.

I think it's mostly a Maine thing. I can definitely feel a difference outside tonight versus the previous several evenings. IZG dp is 66, PWM 64, AUG 66. Getting a lot of marine intrusion, the whole of Androscoggin county was socked in with it all day under low overcast like a May gray or June gloom day in the LA basin. The high is far enough offshore that we're having to deal with these issues now. We probably won't clear out until Wednesday.

This marine taint has knocked dewpoints down to mid 60s

That marine puke never went away for inland areas east of here. It's now marching ominously back in like a wall of doom and it's looking like it never goes away at all tomorrow for places on the wrong side of the mountain divide well inland from here. Today has been much cooler than yesterday due to onshore flow I am guessing, since FIT was stuck with similar overcast conditions for the morning but still managed upper 80s. Upper 70s here, dewpoints still up there though. Going to guess our next chance at sun will be Wednesday, based on similar past events this sludge will be slow to budge.

Yea we managed to luck out today somehow in the fishtail of cumberland county. Still lost a good 6 hours of insolation but we may be able to salvage the rest of the day if convection doesn't move in too soon. The rest of cumberland and points east look pretty porked the rest of the day, if anything the marine sludge is expanding inland even further.

Outflow boundary cut temps down 10 degrees and then cells developing overhead with heavy rain have now dropped it down to 70.

Lots of debris clouds have put the dent into late day heating. Did manage 90 yesterday and today upper 80s. Dewpoints have been consistently high the last week or two which is reminiscent of how summer was when I lived in SW CT many moons ago.

Yea I love them at my place in AZ. Very quiet and cool well even in the 110+ afternoons and nights in the 90s there. Even the outdoor condenser unit is quiet.

Definitely a summer feel out there today and plenty of sun. IZG dewpoint bouncing all over the place, currently at 62. SFM's is at 73.

True summer night out there, 72/70. Hopefully the stalled front over the weekend keeps trending further west.

Ultra rare heat advisory issued for this area tomorrow. Today has been brilliant, lots of sun and we were finally able to get above that elusive 80 degree point. Dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s if IZG is accurate.

Finally got some late day sun to push temps to mid 70s. Dewpoint around 70 making a decidedly summer feel.

Fourth day in the last week we've had some microscale thing happen to ruin the day while most elsewhere had sun and much higher temps. Friday Saturday decidedly ruined by the marine sludge, then yesterday and today, persistent mid to high level clouds while most of the region salvaged a nice day. Sunday was horrible too, more of a widespread NNE thing but it made sure to be exquisitely miserable here. I would not be at all surprised if the marine junk makes a return tomorrow, Thursday and Friday undercutting the brief weak surface ridge respite.

Another gloomy sunless day. Lower 70s.

Persistent and stubborn high clouds have ensured we're stuck in the lower 70s right now vs potential mid 80s. I thought they might go away but still haven't and the day is spent.

Despite the persistent overcast there have been rare peeks of sun and ceilings are much higher than yesterday. Temperature is also 15 degrees higher and there's been no rain yet so it's definitely an improvement, but still far from ideal for the time of year.

The warm front stalled along the pike yesterday and based on the surface analysis, the part in E MA is now pushing back SW. It really is quite remarkable how impossible it seems to get any decent stretch of true summer weather up here like E PA, NJ, SW CT, and NYC metro had yesterday. Even more remarkable as you alluded to, the local engineering of misery in this region. Go far enough W and N, and even Montreal had some sun with upper 70s and dp near 70 yesterday despite being N of the stalled warm front. I guess we're still paying the price for that heat wave a month or so ago?

Meanwhile warm front has cleared most of CT. It'll probably stall along the pike.
