Nope. It will be higher amounts in a more narrow area than modeled… but I think in terms of probability of precipitation, CT looks good in SNE.

Isn’t that 0.50”+ across all of CT on that map? I like your area… maybe not for jackpot but for high probability of rain.

Crazy. 6.89” this month here. The three nearest stations are 6-7”. 1.5 miles SW drops to 4.09” It’s crazy how a localized 2.5” footprint or two can skew summer rainfall.

I kept waiting for her to do something lol. Mark’s been reading up on the Twitter algorithm I see…

That weather will include you two clowns too lol. Region wide. Isn’t this what you’ve been posting about for the last week? The start to August that looks great?

BTV starting to undress on the long term discussion... "unabated perfect weather." For general recreation purposes, though, it`s looking gorgeous. It`s hard not to see the long stretch of 70s to mid 80s with low dewpoints, nil PoPs, and steady breezes without anticipation of unabated perfect weather.

Who are you kidding, you're going to watch every Bruins game like always. It might be as painful as watching the models come out this winter, but it'll be something to pay attention to. 70/67. Drove north for 3.5 hours home today and it felt drastically more humid when we got home. Looks like dews surged everywhere today.

That’s pretty impressive. Didn’t know that about the Tampa climate but makes sense with the humidity. It would be hard thermodynamically to get triple digits in that sauna.

I give credit for posting multi-day means. The solo hour snapshots out that far are wild.

We pour in NE CT. We rain in VT too.

Margarbage or whatever his name is didn’t nail the evaporational cooling ending swimming today with dews in the 50s. 78F.

It was weird in CT… this morning it was like ground level smoke blue haze when passed by the Woodstock Fairgrounds. Sky was still blue. This afternoon it’s just all milky haze. Still great day in the water. Whole family out and swimming for hours. Anyone saying these dews aren’t swimming weather is high as a kite.

Crazy how blue the sky is still.

I take that back. Got out of the woods and can definitely see the haze.

Doesn’t seem that bad over here.

Going through the minute by minute details of how someone feels getting out of a pool…

That’s crazy. They keep popping wild highs during these 90+ days.

I had the other reaction today… maybe I braced myself for the worse. But heading outside late afternoon/early evening with a good breeze didn’t have that humid “bite” I was expecting. Now we are back to the dead calm humid stagnant air once the sun went down.

Today during peak mixing it felt drier than it should have for dews in the mid-60s. Maybe it was the healthy breeze? It was hot as hell though. This evening is damn dewy as soon as we went calm and decoupled. Went from 64-65 to 68-69. As soon as the air stopped moving, it got noticeably more humid.

Something happened there. It really only stands out on the hottest days and on the maxes it seems?

Warm day. Locally, MVL hit at least 89-90F in the valley. It’s alarming how comfortable it felt with dews only in the mid-60s instead of low to mid-70s. We are moving goalposts rapidly now after the heat/humidity so far this summer. Mid-60s dews feel not so bad. Was low-70s above 3Kft. Really nice evening up high.

Man, 82/57 at CON in July for an average is wild.

Haha, doubt it but if my brother-in-law wants to go I’ll shoot ya a message. He’d do anything to get out of there lol. My 75-year-old parents get all their kids, spouses and grandkids together for one Saturday a summer on their 45th anniversary… I’m sure they would understand leaving for a couple hours in the afternoon to meet a fellow weather weenie. I actually should float the idea just to see my mother’s reaction. Maybe Sunday on the way out. Still funny you know Graham. “How the f*ck do you know Kevin?” lol.

That’s a lot of competition psychology just to say the first week has a trough and then the ridge folds over after that.

That day 7-14 signal is tough to ignore. 5-day 850mb means… something cooler is going to happen in there. The ensembles are pretty bullish.
