Funny you say that. Just saw this on Reddit.

Yeah. I was just looking at some July temp departures down this way and MMK, HVN, DXR are all like +5. It's been an absolute furnace down here.

I was traveling back and forth from New Haven to Pt Judith RI this week for work. East of GON has been socked in clouds/mist for the last few days while it's been like full sun HVN West.

It's been full sun from HVN West along the shoreline all day and an amazing beach day here.

Going to be many tropical like days in the woods...

Yeah I agree. A really amazing country with probably some of the happiest and most laid back people of any European Country. The flight attendant on my Air Swiss flight was fluent in like 6 languages.

From Google AI. In the U.S., heat-related deaths have significantly increased in recent decades, with the number of deaths more than doubling from 1999 to 2023. In 2023 alone, over 2,300 deaths were attributed to heat, marking it as the deadliest year for heat-related fatalities.

What a summer.. With strong Bermuda high in place, a S/SW flow will allow plenty of moisture to be sent our way. This combined with above normal high temperatures brings some potential for a heat wave, with heat index of 95-100 currently expected Wednesday and Thursday, and 100 to 105 for many spots on Thursday. LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... ***Key Points*** *While still some uncertainty, there is the potential for a heat wave to continue Wednesday through Friday for many areas with max heat index values between 95 and 100 (2-day Heat Advisory Criteria) for Wednesday and Friday and 100 to 105 possible for Thursday (1-day Heat Advisory criteria). *Relatively active pattern with chances for several days of afternoon showers and thunderstorms.

You know the dews have been so special when your local news puts a muggy meter...

Yeah. I think it's time for some dew charts. Definitely a historic dewy July underway for BDL.

Must be record Creemee sales up there?

What a week coming up for some great dews. Muggy then hot/muggy.. followed up by some uncomfy..

Yeah. Running my sprinklers right now. Looks like BDR with only .04 and HVN .05 overnight.

77 for the overnight low here.

I ripped out a rotted window sill once that had a yellow jacket nest in it. I was like 25ft up on a ladder and took a half dozen stings to my face. My face swelled up so much I could barely see for a day or 2.
