Down in NE CT today, arrived last night. This is total comfort. Windows and doors open all night. No AC needed. Breezy. Its in the Chamber column today.
-
So sorry Dryslot. Thoughts with you and your family.
-
Still good summer signal August 18-24th time frame. Probably a bit drier too (QPF wise, before the Dew Dads read into that drier word too much)… but this stretch in there looks the most summery (without rain) we’ve seen in a while.
-
Just digging into rainfall numbers locally; others south/east of here have had more, but ~23” in the past 10 weeks is 0.33” per day. Averaging a third of an inch of water, every day, for ten weeks. That’s keeping the ground moist.
-
Quick half inch of water to keep things damp. Fantastic lightning show, very loud boomers and frequent. Only problem is the dog hates it. It does storm when the dew is over 60F. 63/62

Looks like BTV has warned it.

Like a meso curling this way from just south of BTV. Been trying to tighten up.

Interesting way to frame it. It’s true, though most of my friends and family memories are skiing. Without that though, winter would be a real tough season to put up with the never ending darkness and clouds. Summer is a vibe like you said. Winter is more like waiting for a singular weather event that may or may not happen.

Hopefully some get that close in.
-
Summer trends towards winter, and winter trends towards summer… until it’s 12 months of April and October. Welcome to climate normalization.

What a block on the 12z GFS… can’t get this in winter for sure. Storm wants to cut but just gets crushed out underneath SNE.

18z evolution was interesting on the GFS. It pops this ridge around the 20th which would be quite hot/summery. But the persistent pattern just returns by the end of the run. It will be interesting to see if the growing signal of a Midwest ridge has any staying power.

That’s awesome.
-
Ha to be honest it feels slightly like anxiety. Life is different and seems more structured starting in the fall.
-
It reminded me of darkness… or shortening days… like need to get home to watch football with a fire lol. Weird feels.
-
High of 73F in the valley. Dew of 52F. Mid-50s and windy up high. Can almost smell the Pumpkin Spice on the breeze… but it feels too early to be honest. Giving that like Sept/Oct afternoon vibe up here but still all green.
-
Heard tomorrow is the last sunset at 8pm or later in Stowe until May 6th. Sun is descending. Hate it… absolutely love the late light and being outside until 9pm.
-
Looks like Day 10 they are starting to bring ridging in… 12z GEFS more than the 00z EPS.
-
That’s all we can do, use the models and discuss them. Refreshing to discuss them even, ha.
-
70/54 Breezy. Almost a bit too chilly to be honest. Never had these days in July.
-
How did Back to School shopping disco end up with DIT describing Dendrite as child trying on clothes nude and zipping their junk up? 66/55 with some showers moving through.
-
Dude, now you’re talking. How do you know you went to school in the 90s? Ha.
-
64/55 Time to buy those composition notebooks kids.
-
That’s insane. 3.37” in August here and 23” same time frame. The persistent SSE low level wind flow ahead of these systems has really favored the SE sides of the general terrain uplift. You guys in eastern VT really did very well. Convective precip loves the hills/topography in eastern VT coming out of the CT River Valley. ORH Hills and Berkshires too.
