That’s sweet. Right where you want it, at the beach. Looks like the Cape was a big humid too. Good for the vacationers there. Today sounds like it hit all the right places.

High of 73F in the valley, most of the afternoon was 68-72F. Elevations in the mid/upper 60s. Good deal of sun and low dews. Wild to be sitting upper 60s and low 70s with some occasional sunshine in July below 1,000ft. Those Canadian air masses tickling in.

TAN looks down to 63F dew and NW flow picking up a bit. Swamps should get some relief soon.

WFO BTV knows C.O.C. when it sees it. Previous discussion below: Thursday wl feature some fair wx cumulus clouds developing over the trrn associated with sfc heating/bl moisture and weak instability, but otherwise another beautiful North Country Chamber of Commerce type day with comfortable temps/humidity values. .LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 352 AM EDT Wednesday...It`s looking like we`ll have beautiful weather for next weekend into early next week as a large Canadian high will settle over the region. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will be a good 5-10 degrees below normal, but with ample sunshine and light winds, it`ll still be very pleasant.

It’s like when SkiMRG (still think he should come back) used to post “Big, big winter incoming” in October… and keep saying it only to have the first warning level snow come in February. Its funny but loses punch over time.

62/57 0.40" rain. Up at the office it's showing 58F right now outside. The Swamps of Taunton are a long way from here.

The first video in this Instagram post has to be the most visual depiction of our country that I have seen in a very long time. https://www.instagram.com/p/CfooKSHtprl/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= That video, of Americans running away from a celebratory fireworks display because of an active shooter is absolutely on-brand for the USA. If that doesn't drive home the point, its hard to imagine what would. Americans, going to celebrate our Independence, are in full sprint away from the celebration because someone is gunning them down. The imagery is incredibly damming to the American brand. We as a citizenry were regarded world wide as the model of civilization and the great American experience was a full win. Not anymore, their are cracks. Cracks in the foundation have occurred. Widening cracks as the ground shifts over time. Maybe it's as simple a comparison as a single house/homeowner, who after a long period of time experiences cracks in the foundation. There are some growing structural issues, even with a grand home standing above it. The owners revamp it, repair the foundation but the house above it remains the great place it always was... and it's an expensive fix. It was stressful. But in the end, the homeowner is left with another period (decades) of stability in that house. Eventually the foundation will crack again, but you repair it and enjoy another run of prosperity. On the flip side, we cannot forget the millions of Americans who work together. The unspoken majority. A friend wrote this, it's not a viral post or quote. But he explained it quite well. There are a lot of us out there who are a melting pot that just want to improve ourselves and country daily. It's not a team sport, you can be both dismayed at the current state of things and yet proud to be an American. It's not a team sport. Say that to yourself as many times as you can.

Yeah it’s looked better all day from the MRG/Sugarbush area into CVT/MPV area… a half inch or more soaking gets the job done.

The irony when someone thinks they hear hyperbole and responds sarcastically. Full circle, ha. 0.28” here now and tapering off. No big rains but enough to soak things.

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.
