At some point everyone here melts down and acts like they are 8 years old and just got their XBox taken away (aka ECMWF takes away their snowstorm).

Yup

Wet means bugs up here. High water levels, standing water in the woods and fields, bugs are excessive.

What a horrible way to go. Sucked into a 36-inch storm sewer pipe. “Police in South Plainfield said they were helping drivers in the flooded area of Hadley Road and Stelton Road around 9:40 p.m. Wednesday when they heard a woman crying out for help, “about (Reddy) being swept into a 36-inch storm sewer pipe.” Officers, with help from the Middlesex County Water Rescue Team and police units from Piscataway, determined that Reddy and another man were being swept into the pipe — which travels under Stelton Road from South Plainfield to Piscataway. Emergency units were able to rescue one of the two men. Reddy was found the next morning in a wooded area behind the 1300 block of Centennial Ave. in Piscataway, police said.”

Absolutely dude, good post. James was watching it all unfold from the beyond.

Yeah I believe since the COOP went automated years ago I think it’s always been a tick warmer than the old housed thermometer when the summit was staffed… but this summer there has been a daytime difference between our ski area Gondola top and the summit. Gondi top is always a few degrees cooler daytime. Early morning they seem to match but like 12pm-5pm they are different. If I’m looking at that MADIS correctly, it looks like it runs warmer in the summer and then fixes itself more in the winter. That’s sort of matches my gut feeling that peak solar it seems to run warm.

Yeah I've noticed the MMNV1 station seemed to run a bit warmer in sunshine this summer... afternoon temps seemed sometime to possibly be a tick or two warm, especially in sunshine. I don't know if the sensor is getting some exposure to sun or rocks warming or something. Seems fine in precipitation, nighttime and clouds. Either way, I think this is the coldest it's been in quite a while up there as I mostly remember low/mid 50s on the colder days this summer.

The Covered Bridges survived another summer. If the rain that fell last night in SNE was up here half the towns in VT would be completely cut-off. Can’t even fathom it. That’s a ton of water.

Mansfield is 48F and MWN is 37F at noon. Pretty sure these are the coldest 12pm temps in like months. I know Mansfield hasn’t been sub-50F in an afternoon since like early June maybe? July 3rd was 50-52F.

Crazy rates. So many flash/flood warnings.

This is all you need to know. That’s an overload to any ecosystem and human infrastructure. Ignoring the heavy rains before and after.

Its about as impressive as a warm season event gets at short/no lead time, no? What a prog.

Holy crap. Sale was ok with 2 ER in 6 IN but only 3Ks. Cole showing 1 ER in 7 IN but with 15 Ks!? This is awesome in the warm season. Cold season is a toaster bath up north. Get it out of the way now.

That first part is insane. 1.6" in 15 minutes on mesonet station.... in an urban area like Staten Island/NYC. A tenth of an inch per minute. Yikes!

It was nuts! Looking on Instagram for #Stowe and like 15 of the first 20 are from this evening's sunset, haha. I think a dozen friends posted it too. Everyone in awe. Here's my version walking the dog around the soccer/lacrosse/softball fields in Stowe.

I wish we could get Pete back. Still miss his always positive vibes.

My dad says like a bit north of 1.50” already. He’s only got one of those cheap garden gauges that goes by half inch.

Left NE CT about 3.5 hours ago and now back up north, but that was some efficient rain already this afternoon… water running down the chasms in the dirt roads there created by previous rains. You guys are in for a wet night.

Like watching a train wreck. I know what’s coming but I can’t turn away. Sort of like when a healthy snowstorm was looking fantastic 48 hours out but you just slowly watch the next 6 model cycles take it away. You keep checking in each model cycle just to make sure it’s really happening

Yeah it’s a Wild Card race now. I think 6-7 players out positive with COVID now? Most of the bullpen, Barnes, Taylor, Sawamura, etc, Kike Hernandez, then Bogaerts got pulled mid-game for a positive test. He’s very tight with Devers, who is now playing shortstop for many games possibly (lol) if he’s not positive. It’s not even competitive at this point, almost comical. Just get a wild card game with the Yankees, ha.

Great chamber day in Boston. Dews 54-56F and temps 83-84F all afternoon with a good breeze. Those dews make all the difference, felt pretty dry.

That’s wild for a 6-hour panel.

Maybe they couldn’t take anymore? Wild.

I had no idea the damage in ‘38 went that far north just straight through NNE. Good graphic man.
