Put that map next to the one from ALY and that is probably one of the more underrated storms ever in the northeast, haha. The rest of the winter will forever over-shadow that event.... but 18”+ from the Boston suburbs all the way past ALB into the Mohawk Valley is big. Also looks like the lower elevations of CT River Valley did well (20s near Springfield) and Hudson River Valley got crushed with 20-26” in the ALB area.... rare to see a long duration storm like that not screw the valleys. But again I think the rest of the winter will over-shadow that storm in the memory banks.

Looking more and more like winter in NE CT. Any good weenie would wonder why there's no snow on the roof though. The ground cover actually isn't that bad.

BTV has mixed to 82/50. There's some Chamber weather with RH around 30%.

My parents said they are setting up for fake winter in Woodstock, CT.... they are filming some Hallmark movie at various locations around town and there are several buildings/outdoor spaces getting prepped to fake winter. It's supposed to take place during December and Christmas time. The leaves on the trees must make that tough. Must be brutal filming a movie wearing winter clothing outside a house when the dew point goes back over 70F in a few days.

I was just hoping he’d go no shame and quote 80F at BDL right after telling Steve not to use those observations.

While we are talking Tolland Stem... let the record show it appears @CoastalWx was right on a day or two under 80F for the interior. That Stem graphic above only has a max of 77F so far. Most interior SNE seems to be 70s.

80/56 This feels pretty good.

I really forgotten how big that storm was. That's a legit large scale zone of counties with widespread 18-28". That's no isolated deform band jack or something... that's a large chunk of terrain buried under 18"+.

I mean, argument aside, these dews are pretty decent for midday in mid-July. You've got 59's across the board from BDL/ORH/BOS and more 50s streaming in from Maine/NH. We'll mix out up here this afternoon too I'm sure with 50s just north in Canada.

Somewhere there is a cartoon superhero wearing a giant weenie on his cape, fighting the big bad villain named "Chamber of Commerce."

Yeah we had a low in the 50s this morning and right now it's 72/62... it does not feel humid anymore. But this would've felt humid a month or two ago. Just like when we wear a jacket for 59F and sunny in October because it feels chilly after summer... but 59F and sunny in the spring feels like t-shirt weather and shorts. I mean, the argument is over a dew of 59F vs. a dew of 62F. The normal population, will never tell you the difference between those two. It only matters to what we call it on here and apparently it matters, lol.

Those dew scales were also developed by ASOS dew points, not backyard dews. Move those up 5F for Davis dews at least. You have to be honest, 62F though doesn’t feel like it did a month ago. Your body does adapt really quickly.

That is nuts. Probably one of the more impressive hail videos ever recorded in New England.

Looks good this week for sure. This evening turned Chamber worthy. After the rain stopped, I took the dog up for a walk on the hill. The sky cleared so fast after the rain, except for the low level moisture. I love this time of year, when you can start a hike at 6:30pm and have plenty of daylight when you get down at 8:30pm. This was somewhere in the middle. 60s and a decent breeze up here crossing the Sensation Quad liftline.

Highs in the 60s at the beach with patchy fog is the equivalent of 40s and rain showers in a ski town in January. I'd think you'd want big heat and humidity living a stone's throw from the ocean.

Channeling my inner-Scooter.... those sound like ideal temperatures to have at a beach house. "Just steps away from the ocean, the beach house is a perfect place to escape to in the summer. Not for the swimming, but because you can wear a shawl on the porch at 2pm in the afternoon and be comfortable."

Some sweet ground fog in the backyard about 2-3 feet thick across the lawn. 63/63

Rain has tapered off... 1.07” emptied. Most fell in an hour then like 5 hours of light rain showers.

Temperature has been bouncing around between 62-66F this afternoon depending on the intensity of the rain. A rare cool and rainy day in July.

Pretty good DBZ core there. Yikes. That’s not like just a pixel or two.

It would have to be a pickle(s) icon... it can work in a couple ways.

What a weird summer. We get very high heat at times, and all of our heavy rain events have come on ENE wrap around flow from N.NH and NE VT. I cant remember so many days with thunderstorms moving from NE to SW up here.

Going over 1.00” now, spilling into the outer tube. What a soaker for the past hour.

Guinea pigs! I love that forum wide radar hot, can see me getting smoked right now with +RN.

Getting drenched. About 0.70” eyeballing it and still pouring.
