It certainly looks much hotter (both sensibly and maybe departures) at times down your way, summer isn't going anywhere anytime soon at BDL.

Down to 65/62 after a fast temp drop at sunset. Fans drawing that air inside and the wife is already chirping that it's chilly. I tell her it can't be chilly with a dew over 60... "nobody cares about your dew point" was the response.

Gently backed off probably describes it fine. I’m not splitting hairs on a 58F vs 61F low at BDL that Ryan is changing in his forecast, ha. Overall it still looks like a nice pleasant air mass here in the north. The “over the top” heights have disappeared from the first half of the summer, and I do think climo will start to slowly (or gently) assert itself at times across southern Canada.

Next week looks nice on GEFS and EPS. “At least for Saturday and most of Sunday, our region will be dry with seasonably warm temperatures owing to the upper ridge in place. It should be a gorgeous weekend. Afterwards, an upper trough will move in with cool, Canadian high pressure at the surface.“ Pretty decent agreement between EPS and GEFS.

Some crazy people down there is the joke... the “meanwhile in Florida” memes or usually the most ridiculous news stories you can imagine (where you are like nah, that can’t be real) usually start with “A Florida man....”

Yeah those are ski trails off the Gondola. It’s extremely pleasant up here today. Clouds cleared out to just small Cu dotting the landscape.

They are ready.... haven't gotten their fresh coat of paint yet. One of the places where you truly get "paint-peeling" wind/weather. 64F at the picnic tables.

72/64 up this way at noon. Windows and doors open.

Wishing for this on a very humid evening...

Yeah, we are getting to that time of year when we start to get to see better air masses nose into NNE from time to time. Just don't post that in the main threads, lol.

Haven’t noticed grasshoppers but the bugs on the mountain came back out in force this week after the 2+ inches of rain from the tropical storm. Mountain has been pretty wet lately (raining again right now) and it’s almost like the second coming of the black flies.

I am so confused by this whole discussion. I honestly thought we were talking about up here. I'll still stand by in the next week we will see quite a bit of Chamber of Commerce style weather regardless. We'll see how the next 10 days plays out. Looks hotter down your way.

Yeah I actually think the OP EURO is too cold next week... I'd love to have some highs in the 60s but I'd lean more towards the MOS data there of mid-70s. Now also, you guys in SNE look to be decently warmer than NNE at times on the Euro. Like Dendy said though, we start to get to the time of year when those air masses can tickle the northern tier... so talking about my backyard vs. your backyard isn't going to be the same. We can do COC while BDL is hitting 90F. Overall I'd lean EPS in the extended... Day 5-10 averaged mean looks pretty darn normal starting next week.

I guess I can look at the models for you, sure. I can give you a little snap shot if you want (the box is MVL's grid point) at 18z temps so you don't have to check yourself. Euro looks colder than GFS next week, has some days with highs struggling out of the 60s on Tue/Wed time frame. Starting Friday the max temps look like: Upper 70s/upper 70s/low 80s/low 70s/low 70s/upper 60s

We’ll see, I think the next 5-7 days come in pretty close to normal. Normal being 80/54. MOS shows this for the next 7 days, almost lock step with the NWS zone forecast: 86/66, 82/56, 81/56, 79/56, 77/57, 76/55 and 75/56

But that’s what you just said there was none in sight? Confusing. And who said anything about a cool fall-like pattern? Just confused all over. It looks near normal up here. That’s lows/dews in the 50s and highs upper 70s to low 80s. Chamber of Commerce summer brochure weather. It’s like you hear that and think someone is calling for first frosts and cool autumn weather.

Interesting... just had some breezy conditions (gusts over 20mph) that dropped the dew from near 70F to 59F. It does feel a bit more comfortable out, noticeable going from 90/70 to 88/59. I'm assuming the dew will come back up if the wind levels off.

Holy sh*t. That's hard to even fathom.

Check swing for strike 3 as he slams his bat into the ground in frustration, while men in business suits run out onto the diamond to rake the infield dirt between innings.

I loved those... 89.9F "We never made it to 90F." Anyway, MVL with it's 12th 90-degree day at the ASOS, tying the record for most 90F days at that site. Looks like BML is at 91F for a max so far... I think they are also at the 12th day of 90F there too. MVL and BML have been pretty much lock step this summer with max temps. If one hits 90F the other one does too going back to May.

This whole summer is in rare air. I enjoyed the novelty of it in May and June. I'm so over this by now. The days following the TC were awesome... 70s/50s. Need much more of that.

lol... the caption could also be "Watch as convection peaks in the late evening across NY and W.NNE, and dies off by 3am as the front enters SNE..." If anything it looks fairly robust in CT for the time of day... that's like 9z/5am with some cells in CT.

90/74 at KLEW is a pretty steamy observation for an ASOS site... I think we got near that in the last period of heat though before the tropical storm. MVL here is at 90/70 now... quick dew jump from 66F to 70F. Odd to see the dews increasing as we get into the middle of the afternoon. We might join you soon at this rate for dews.

You guys live in another world. I remember that after the Police Officer/EMT/Teacher discussion from the COVID thread. Just insane salaries compared to other places, either that or you're fixating on the highest values down there. Up here it seems like they are lucky to get $25/hr in those public jobs.

BTV with 90/66 MVL keeps doing 88/68 or 86/70 type stuff the past hour. HHH.
