Story of our lives up north.

Might break 75F tomorrow up here. Too early to pay for heat so good to see some 65-75F afternoons in the forecast this next week.

Down to 46/44 at MVL and 48/45 at MPV at 9pm... crisp morning in route.

Agreed... next two weeks likely average AN, with some periods of dews (60s). Nothing extreme but southerly flow ahead of the FROPA's will pump up the moisture. The first third of the month has been BN, but that should moderate a bit heading through the next 10-14 days.

Magic Mountain is now the tallest ski area in the East. Well done Magic.

Looks like a nice run of beautiful weather. Some extended period with highs in the 70s would be nice again. Next weekend sounds awesome: “Temperatures Saturday through Monday will warm to above normal, with readings in the mid to upper 70s forecast. &&”

Was just looking at local PWS from this morning and the station along the Stowe Country Club looks like it dropped into the 30s this morning MPM-style. Lol...39.9F for a brief minute after being in the low 40s all night. Historically this station does well at night being right on the golf course.

42F this morning.

Sounds like our summer up here... but I do think if I lived down in SNE lower elevations and especially near the urban heat islands, you'd want to leave the AC in. Those heat sinks just don't cool off at night and that's when it really sucks. We've been lucky to avoid the September heat but the later we get into the month, even the total torch days might feature some low 80s? It looks like some low-70s have crept into the forest for Wednesday and then again next weekend. Today's high did get up to 63F despite holding around 61F in most of the hourly obs. Down to 52F (not fake cold either, thick clouds overhead) and have to close up the house tight to avoid the heat kicking on. It's 63F inside.... a few days in the 70s might feel real nice as I'm not ready to give up the ease of shorts and a t-shirt. Looks like its staying mild in SNE with widespread 60s this evening. I could go for a couple more of those mild evenings they are enjoying.

It is mind-boggling how long a lot of us posters have been on here and the forums that came before this one. Way back when the entire East Coast was covered in the same thread, ha.

Thanks for your service in Law Enforcement. If I wasn't so addicted to skiing, LE was what I wanted to go into as a kid. Tons of respect for you guys.

Ha big difference in those Euro runs.

Yup, there are many instances for both political parties throwing their weight around when it comes to department heads and ideology. That’s why a lot of those moves no one can blame the current POTUS, everyone does it. The fun non-partisan stuff everyone can laugh at together is like reminiscing about the last time a POTUS held a press conference with hand drawn maps to prove a 3-day old tweet...South Park might have done that episode too.

Luckily if it gets warm, daylight is getting shorter so the evening temp drop happens earlier and earlier. Natural A/C turns on earlier and lasts longer overnight.

Can’t risk a day being a little uncomfortable, ha. Only ran AC once this summer, we safely can get rid of that. Heat came on by accident yesterday. Left the windows open and it was 62F inside.

Start throwing pumpkins into the brew tanks. Buy that Halloween candy before it’s too late. I saw Christmas stuff going out on the shelves of the Dollar Store the other day.

Cold, windy, some rain last night. MVL had almost a half inch of rain but only 0.15” in Stowe. Gondola is on a rare summer Wind Hold, 43F with wind chill near 32F. Feels like fall. Highs only upper 50s to mid-60s today:

What’s the difference again between the speed and gust on Davis stations? Is speed a 1-min average or 5-min average? Sustained 47mph, gusting 95mph seems like quite the spread. It’s huge damaging wind anyway, just curious what exactly are the specs for each ob?

Yeah dude all your wave shots today look tight. That’s perfect sized stuff to play in.

Even above normal starts to fall into COC territory. Still none of those Sept heatwaves or near heatwaves like we’ve seen in recent years.

67/47... the way Chamber’s draw it up.

It sucks that most normal people (or all other Presidents) would’ve just said, “since I was last briefed the models changed course to the East and Alabama won’t be impacted luckily.” End of story instead of doubling and tripling down to prove correctness...eventually ending with the local NWS taking the fall in an unsigned statement. But the reasoning for not being able to just admit that is going to be the study of Graduate level Psychology students.

Those look like they could be dropping some decent 1/2” rain amounts overnight in the deep interior.

You forgot portions of NNE too.

The reaction coming out from the weather community is awesome. Glad to see folks standing up for their own. Can’t believe it came to that for the poor folks at NWS Birmingham, as they were just trying to tell people Dorian would not be hitting them harder than expected. Anyway, should be an interesting 24 hours from Cape Cod to the Maritimes.
