Just looking at various models, several show some similar views of a low pressure down south but they all seem to lose it versus the gfs. Time will tell. But all the ensembles including gefs say nothing to see here.... move on

Sign me up! I need a new truck again. Bought my last one week or 2 before Sandy. Paid off the 5 year loan in 2 with 6 months of crazy over- time, 2-4 weeks of working 7 days a week, 12 hour days then 9 hours a day 6 days a week for months! Best silver lining to a bad situation.

They been trying it here on the north fork all day, building near l between southold and riverhead then fizzling .

87.6 for the day

Heat Advisory issued August 06 at 12:57PM EDT until August 08 at 8:00PM EDT by NWS New York City - Upton HEADLINE: Heat Advisory issued August 06 at 12:57PM EDT until August 08 at 8:00PM EDT by NWS New York City - Upton DESCRIPTION: ...HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT MONDAY... * WHAT...Heat index values of 95 today, and up to 99 Sunday and Monday. * WHERE...Portions of northeast New Jersey, southern Connecticut and southeast New York. * WHEN...For the afternoon and early evening hours today, Sunday, and Monday. * IMPACTS...Hot temperatures and high humidity may cause heat illnesses to occur. INSTRUCTIONS: A Heat Advisory is issued when the combination of heat and humidity is expected to make it feel like it is 95 to 99 degrees for two or more consecutive days, or 100 to 104 degrees for any length of time. Seniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health conditions are at an increased risk. Homes without air conditioning can be much hotter than outdoor temperatures. Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has air conditioning. Check on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbors. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency! In cases of heat stroke call 9 1 1.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... -- Changed Discussion -- Will continue to monitor temps and dew points. Portions of interior eastern CT have registered dew points in the mid 70s. With cloud cover potentially staying back to the SW just long enough, resulting in full sun for most areas into at least the first half of the afternoon heat advisories may need to be hoisted for multiple days of 95+ heat indices (starting potentially w this afternoon). Will make this decision next update as it will be borderline for later today. Trimmed back POPs ever so slightly across eastern sections for the most part for later today. Still maintaining chance to slight chance POPs from west to east across large majority of the area for this afternoon and the early evening. Previous discussion follows.

Where's Lake God?

Should storms survive/ develop they're on a south east trajectory

Sun mostly out and we're up to 85 now

Already over an inch in several areas with no signs of stopping, potential for flash flooding no doubt. THUNDER NOW!

Amazing, the temperature and Dewpoint both crashed with this rain, went from 80 to 74°F Dewpoint went from about 68 to 63.

Picked up 0.35 so far, 0.75 total for month so far

Sneaky little cell that has some training look to it....

Kinda surprised it didn't get warmer

https://www.npr.org/2022/08/03/1115378385/tonga-volcano-stratosphere-water-warming Tonga's volcano sent tons of water into the stratosphere. That could warm the Earth Earlier large volcanic eruptions have affected climate, but they usually cool temperatures, because they send light-scattering aerosols into the stratosphere. Those aerosols act as a sort of massive layer of sunscreen. But since water vapor traps heat, the Tongan eruption could temporarily raise temperatures a bit, the researchers said. It normally takes around 2-3 years for sulfate aerosols from volcanoes to fall out of the stratosphere. But the water from the Jan. 15 eruption could take 5-10 years to fully dissipate.

85 for today's high. Not to shabby

Suffolk Water Authority expands water emergency to 4 East End towns Suffolk County Water Authority officials have expanded water emergency conditions declared in Southampton Village to its customers in the entire town, along with Southold, East Hampton and Shelter Island. The declaration of a Stage 1 Water Emergency for those towns was made to ensure there is sufficient water for firefighting and other emergency purposes, Water Authority and municipal officials said at a Tuesday morning news conference. It comes just days after the state designated Long Island and more than 20 other counties to be on drought watch.
