Man the drought talk is out of control. Everything is pretty much at normal levels like the Quabbin. The same areas in supposed moderate drought. 

Some people must think we live in the Amazon or something. You'd think we're supposed to average like 70+" of rain a year

Today absolutely blows. Saying today is depressing is an understatement 

HRRR did pretty well yesterday having these showers moving through 

Well so much for lasting until Fall  I’ve been wanting to hold off longer, but my girlfriend had been looking at shelters and came across Izzy and fell in love with her. She was found around a gas company by some employees and had a leg injury. They had paid for the surgery and brought her to the shelter. 
 

we went to go meet her last night. Unfortunately, she came down with a cold and because she is being treated we can’t legally take her across state lines. So hopefully we will be able to bring her home Tuesday or the following Tuesday.

Looking for suggestions 

what about adding NBM and NBM probabilities?

This is pretty cool!

I wonder if the below average precipitation departures (not just in our region but within the country), particularly the last several years are a product of what seems to be the peak of the +AMO regime. Or I shouldn't say directly related because there are always other factors but perhaps a large driver.

Wiz will like the NW flow potential at the end of the ensembles. 

Let's do it

Good call Scott. 

Gusts are ripping here

This persistent trough pattern may lead to a solid nor'easter eventually.  See that storm from May 3-4 that bombed S of Nova Scotia?  981 to 968 mb in just 3 hr!  Scott impressed?

At some point you'd think we may generate a nor'easter...we've come close but have fallen short.

Yesterday a Norway maple fell in a playground, killing a kid in Melrose. Cut every one of those fucking trees down.

When I used to work as a camp counselor over the summer there were a few kids sitting under a tree during lunch. I didn't see this happen because I was inside with a few of the kids, but a large limb fell out of nowhere and just missed the kid. Extremely scary stuff. I believe it was a giant oak but it was rotting...the town quickly came in and they either completely took it down or significantly trimmed it 

Finally back to full sun and temps soaring 

Winds may end up underperforming today too

At least tomorrow should provide some widespread rains...nothing eye opening in terms of totals but a nice little drink. PWATS are rather high though so could be some room to get towards the higher end guidance tomorrow

Was doing nicely warming up but clouds have put a lid on things 

It is sooooo depressing when you see big CAPE building into the upper-Midwest and Great Lakes region then watch it just get destroyed and shunted to our southwest when you loop it. Very depressing

The format sucks and is nearly incomprehensible.  

Yeah not a fan of it at all. Who knows, maybe this will be bought up during the next CBA meetings which will be shortly (they've already been addressing some topics).

You weren't warmed by the thoughts of the Canadiens advancing in the Stanley Cup playoffs?

I would have been on fire had the Bruins advanced too, setting up a B's/Canadiens second round matchup.

What sucks about the current playoff format is the Bruins/Canadiens will never face each other in the conference finals...unless the league goes back to 1-8 formatting which doesn't sound like will be happening anytime soon. 

Awful last night, can't count how many times the heat kept kicking in. Was literally like February with how much the heat kept consistently coming on. At least its warmed up out but that wind negates it a bit. 

Quite the snowstorm about to unfold for Denver too lol...bufkit spitting out a foot of snow on NAM/GFS for Denver lol.

Great call. Last two weeks have sucked. Early next week looks good.

Finally some signals we may turn the tables a bit after the first week.

Down to the final day!
