Dry air drain getting close for comfort here on that run.

Good. Keep it coming. I’m out of the numbers game for this season…I’d prefer it end up BN. Less snow to melt next week.

It’s trying to drop a foot in the Monads

Am I the only one that likes a faint smell of skunk? Not the intense nearby spraying. It’s like smelling gasoline to me. 

Fun times.

One of my faves. It was fun stealing it from DC, then Philly, then NYC, then BOS in just a matter of days.

How so? A few warm days and then it gets back close to climo.

Guess it’s the same down in SNE between ORH and everyone else around there.

Dripping off rooftops at ORH but locked up tight elsewhere.

Jesus. He was almost 40° all night.

Hrrr has an insane sleet snow line at the pike. Congrats Ray on the best event since Jan 2024.

There’s a pretty big area just sitting near 0C between 750-850 for many hours. Tough forecast.

It’s an inch + primarily frozen . Snow for you ice others 

Not trolling you here. But you have to advect this in on NE flow over Wor county. You’re going to need a good low level push to avoid that annoying 31.5° kinda-sorta-not really ZR. I’d feel better on decent accretion in the NW hills. 

Yup. It’s over. 

Still 43° at 820pm. Wow.

And we’re supposed to believe a high in the 40s. 

Hopefully no power for anyone around 990ft for a week so I can enjoy my warmth next week in peace.

Keep pushing this south so I have 0 cleanup. My body is broken down and has had enough.

18z euro starting to show the dendrite-drift on the high middle of next week.  That’s gonna be my new term for Quebec highs trying to nose down and ruin torches. It’s the high pressure version of the messenger shuffle. 
 

@dendrite gets the honors since his area is usually first on tap to get screwed by these. 
 

Hopefully a couple of James Bay jerks when I wake up tomorrow morning. But yeah…it’ll creeping a little too close to the county. 

The ground has pretty deep cold too in shaded spots.

That ptype map is messed up

Do you literally get no sun on your deck all summer or do you move the Davis onto the lawn during warm season? You always seem to be on the cool side and I see your temp a lot when I check mine.

Now 47.9. 40’s it was

ORH is 44

ORH is always cold and it’s in a sea of 40s. You’re surrounded by low to mid 50s.

Cope.

We’ll just agree to disagree then . I’ve lived in this spot 21 years and I know how it works and the climate . 

I have deep woods on the west side here that hold cold. Depending on the mixing this time of year I get some nice battles between warmer air mixing back down and the cooler air oozing back in. But even beside that, it’s common for temps to jump around even in full sun. There’s a reason why they put 5 min averages on ASOS.

Well you have it mounted on a deck railing too. But I don’t think you’re far off temp wise even with the Vue.

But yeah….temps fluctuate quite a bit over a few minutes with uneven heating during the day. 

52-53 makes sense

They don’t drop under midday sun lmao. It’s semi shady on the Davis now vs when you posted. It’ll go back up again over the next hour as it’ll be in full sun again. 

Of course they do lol
