Better days are ahead, if you're not a fan of the heat wave
we've been experiencing that is. As we move into the latter half
of the week and weekend the synoptic patter transitions to one
dominated by broad mid-level troughing over the northeast. As
this happens height falls and cooler upper level temperatures
will lead to a gradual "cool down"...quotes included because
even so, temperatures will still feel very much summer-like.
Some locations like Hartford and portions of eastern MA may even
get one more day tacked onto the heatwave streak on Thursday
(i.e. could reach 90 F once more), after which things remain
around normal or slightly above normal for early August. By the
weekend 850 mb temperatures drop as low at 12-14 C. All of this
translates to highs in the 80s across the region; biggest drop
in temps comes between Thursday and Friday with a cold frontal
passage. Good news is dewpoints should be more comfortable
during this period.
I definitely will check the SNE area that the HRRR predicts. We already know your mulch pile will be much higher +5 than any ASOS. One thing I won't do is to compare 4 pm maps to 11 AM obs
Yes, this is my phone Thermometer App that has windy with it. Love the details look. Dews dropping now. Hot dry Sahara here. Ground is dusty earth. Grass is scorched.
Love this app, has Madis on it too. Was looking at all the layers you can put on. Very cool, waves, currents tides, all air quality from NO to SO, winter radars, winter precip type forecast etc etc
The Thermometer App for Android is pretty cool, uses Euro data ,gives all the parameters as well as tides. Click able soundings too. Will be great to use in the winter.
