Wow. Even a MPM approved 90F here (89.9). I knew it would be warm but didn’t expect that Beach was great. If you ever happen to be in Wickford RI, try out Gardner’s Seafood. Fresh off the dock into my belly

From yesterday’s Boston Glob The US Department of Energy on Thursday night sent letters to each of the six New England governors urging them to begin shoring up their oil supplies in advance of the coming winter and the peak of hurricane season. As it stands, the region’s oil stockpile is low — not low enough to prompt emergency action — but at a level the US governmentbelieves could lead to disruptions during a New England winter storm or extreme weather in the Gulf of Mexico, where the region imports much of its oil and fuel from. Stockpiling now, the Energy Departmentsays, will prevent strain on the system during extreme weather.

It might drop a little but like Ginx said lots of signs of things going up for fuels in New England. Maybe not gasoline but heating oil and nat gas. I would think similar for propane

Nasty cell in N RI right now

Yup. It kinda blows. We will get some dinner in Wickford or someplace on the ride back.

Yeah. I don’t go to the NE Mass and SNH beaches very often due to that.

I do hate the 2 hour drive to the beach. And the drive home

SRI beaches for me today Lots of seaweed though.

Not sure if one can truly prepare for a Cat 3 in SNE. You can get a generator and some canned food. Unless you want to go totally doomsday. It would suck for weeks or longer if a ‘38 Redux hit

September is usually very summerlike in SNE. The only big change is daylight. I personally enjoy Sept and October quite a bit. November and April and get lost

Local PWS to me has 0.53” for Aug so far and 2.63” for July. I think both are a little low. They recorded 0.0” yesterday when I had around 0.15” in a localized downpour. This has happened a couple of times

Lots of TwitterWx talk about tropics waking up.

I’ve only ever seen them once. In Lowell of all places in the late 1980s Some legit rain here now.

Hopefully this will get out of the way and lead to some clear skies Thurs night. Decent aurora sighting chances for New England

We locked ours in back in June

My daughter was supposed to perform outdoors this evening (under a really nice pavilion). The director moved the show indoors due to the rain. Oops

Serious question… how long are marijuana plants “fragrant “?). There is an outdoor grow place near us and it is ripe

I think he was tipping the cap to you.

0.25” for MBY would be appreciated.

To bust this drought it will take more than 0.4” over 24 hours. Places need 4-6” over two weeks or something akin to that.

Portents of the upcoming winter

He had loads of them in folder and binders just awaiting the proper time

GFS qpf of 0.75” even out this way.

We get C-130s in 2s or 3s pretty routinely. They head towards a beacon in Templeton and loop around Wachusett I guess. Neat to see but the C5s are special
