That tune will change real quick once the heat arrives. 100+ even with slight humidity could yield 110+ heat indices
I could see brown outs for sure if this type of prolonged heat materializes and perhaps worse if the higher end forecasts play out.
This is not your typical heat wave coming up. Ensembles and model runs are getting more intense every day. This is some historic stuff coming up. 600dm showing up on GFS
The northeast has mostly been spared from these CC infused heat waves but is it our time now?
The fact ensembles are going this high already is concerning and we have several days to go.
People's expectations are also too high. I think our average is still below 80F. We shouldn't be seeing 90+ daily weather. In fact we're averaging AN after first 8 days of June.
There's a large area of below normal SSTs east of us into SE Canada while drought conditions are present in the plains and western regions.
I wonder if modeled heat waves in the LR will keep getting muted for our region because of this.
