I'm not so sure everything will be warm. With the cold pool gone there's a good chance we see a lot more NAO blocking to come, which will have an effect on our weather past summer.
Looks like a pretty positive PDO as well. I also don't think August will be as warm as people think.
Wow no wonder the Arctic ice is getting decimated this season.
I wonder how this will factor in during hurricane season. The 2012 record low season coincided with Hurricane Sandy, but unsure if that's related.
Well so much for a dry summer as some have forecast.
My area dodged the worst of it but hearing reports of widespread flooding in northern Middlesex county.
The lightning has been incredible though and it was cool to see the storms roll through.
Next week will feel like fall compared to this, I think highs on Tuesday stay in the 70s.
No relief tonight though, 90/75 close to 9pm.
Urban spots may stay in the 80s tonight with a high launching pad for tomorrow.
Too much cloud coverage for 90 today and front passes through early Monday.
Fri-Sun will likely yield 95+ readings, can't rule out 100 for Sat or Sun in the hottest spots.
Insane how the -NAO is stuck in its negative phase, AO too.
However blocking in mid summer tends to mean hot vs cool. Not sure if there's a link between -NAO summer vs winter.
Is 100F in the cards this month?
Getting plenty of sunshine right now. 84/75
CAPE already at 2500
High instability/low shear, good recipe for training storms, precip values exceeding 2"
