62/61…. Chilly but a bit humid feeling. 0.15” and steady rain. Synoptic rain in July, nice little clipper, widespread 1-3” or locally 3-6” if ratios increase a bit.
-
That’s absolutely bonkers. What’s the elevation there, a bit above 2k? Phin probably would’ve had 8 feet on the ground at 1500ft.
-
So if it doesn’t snow in December, it will snow in April? Is that the argument put forth? Weather has an allotment that will occur at some point and if you just delay it, it’ll happen at another time? No sustained dews in June/July mean humid Oct/Nov?
-
It’ll be right on time in August for the dog days. And we can all enjoy it. It’s possible to crossover and like both. You still haven’t answered, have you enjoyed this summer weather so far?
-
70? He calls it Morch if the temp is above 50F. It’s been tough to watch so far this summer. Can’t say it’s a torch or humid and then nitpicking over Chamber of Commerce definitions. COC is more of a function of RH than anything. Get 40-45% RH or under and it’s in the zone. Under 30-35% is Red Flag style dry. Today, no COC… 68/58 here and spitting raindrops. 70% or higher RH. Crazy when upper 50s dews feel humid.

A couple shots from the bombing. This is literally right from the back steps, can't even get the lens angle wide enough to capture it all. Just over the back trees. Probably decent bear deterrent, ha. Look at the positives. Happy 4th though everyone!
-
It’s actually pretty incredible looking around the region. KNYC… isn’t that ASOS in a semi-forested area of Central Park? 85/42 for 22% RH at 2pm on July 4th in Central Park. Red flag conditions. Thats how you draw it up. Dry heat. Summer temps but no swamp ass.
-
ALB area with dews in the 30s on July 4th. That’s something I don’t remember growing up there. Yore.

We are right next to the town of Stowe display that takes place in neighboring fields. Dog reacts like WWIII. The industrial grade fireworks are close, like you feel it in your body as a human. We are right on the closure do not enter line. She got a heavy sedative two hours ago (she gets a lighter version daily to keep her energy levels down after her knee surgery) and goes into the master bathroom with loud relaxation music and fan on. As dumb as it sounds, it seems to work.

TAN didn’t get above 55F it looks like. One of the highest in NE.
-
There wasn’t a station remotely close to 83/60 today. You got the temp right but you keep . And yea, dews will come and we can enjoy that too. It doesn’t have to be a team sport. Like we’ve said, it’s ok to admit you enjoyed today. Did you honestly not enjoy today’s weather?
-
It’s July. Dew points are in the 40s region wide at the ASOS stations. It’s a warm, dry glorious summer day and it’s ok to feel that way too. No need for a semantics argument on the 4th … DIT, hope you are having a great 4th. Happy Independence Day!
-
Lol you keep trying to fight it. This is as Chamber of Commerce as it gets in July. The black roof of the Tolland High School has been 80F with a dew point of 51F all afternoon it looks like. ORH has been 70s over 40s. It’s ok to admit you love this and enjoy it too. Put your business suit on and jump into the pool.
-
Chamber approved. Couldn’t ask for better weather for 4th of July. We finally “win” on a holiday.
-
72/48... just days and days. The number of max temps in the 70s since May 1st has been staggering up here. It was above normal, then normal, now a bit below.
-
That’s sick Dave! Right in the yard.
-
How do the dogs do? Mine loses her shit over fireworks. Thinks the world is ending.
-
Holy crap.
-
BOX reads minds. They aren’t confused. “After the cold front passage late Tuesday, the upper level pattern features a mean trough which will allow daytime highs during the remainder of the week to be below to near normal. For reference, typical daytime highs are in the low to mid 80s away from the immediate coast. From a climatological standpoint, we are fast approaching the highest average temps in the year. So no real big heat in the horizon during the hottest time of the year!”
-
Yeah I’m not sure I can remember a July air mass with RH values so low. BDL at 84/39 for 20% RH is some early spring before leaf out type of RH. FIT has been sitting 18% RH. Dry, dry, dry.
-
12z GEFS continue to keep the trough going days 5 - 9 in the 2m mean temperatures.
-
Yeah this is more of a summer I remember when I first moved here a decade ago. One of those years we had like half the minimums in July were 40s. Of course it’s this summer after spending a ton of money on A/C because of the past 2-3 summers that were roasters.
-
NW flow mixing out pockets of real dry air?
-
It’s a confusing process… but yeah if that trough leaves we will bake for a while. Nothing to stop that central ridge from moving in.
-
This pattern seems pretty stable now. I’ll wait for a Tippy post about the long wave indices, he usually covers that stuff well, but not sure what it would take to really rock the boat now and switch it up. The persistent SE Canada trough seems locked in.
