Sea fog flirting with us here in Swampscott, MA. Nice and comfy at 73 F here.

Yeah, I just took the pup out for the evening walk.  It's impressive how warm it is for 11:00pm, just stifling.

7/3/66, hottest day I've experienced (8/2/75 the only day even close).  However, CON records begin in 1921 so no numbers for July 1911 when ASH hit 106.

Going to hit the Flemish Cap.

Hey, why not Portugal while we're at it?
 

That's crazy, thought I read that town doesn't usually get a lot of snow, its east of Sapporo.

Flakes nixing in here on Winchester, just north of Boston. Too bad rates went to pot at the same time.

Well it has snowed almost non stop here for the last 3 weeks.  The sad part is despite this, our total accumulation is exceeded by Pensacola in this period.

The kind of snow grains they get for weeks on end in eastern Europe and western Russia.

I remember a spectacular outbreak in Middlebury, VT, when I was a student there, I think it was in the winter of 1981-82. Looking straight up the curtains, they were tilted to the south about 15 degrees from overhead. Fast washes of color would rush down the curtains every couple of minutes and really gave them an electric feeling. I was a fan of Pat Metheny at the time and remember thinking his piece "As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls", especially the harp glissandi, would go great as a soundtrack with the aurora.

Pretty late 90 possible on the GFS 6z. Within three days of joining the exclusive 90 in October Club (has happened in BOS 3 times)

..far too many kids are treated like fragile glass. Just talk to hs football coaches, they will all tell you that once the "cold" hits in October kids begin to quit....parents complain about there not being an indoor practice facility....we both know that SNE becomes the Yukon in October... a player could freeze to death running around a football field....

Or this could happen...

even Barrow Alaska or whatever they call it now reached 66 with a dew of 55  on the 26th that's nuts for them

Interesting also that the band of heaviest snow is almost exactly parallel to ( but about 50 miles south of) the path of totality of the eclipse in 2 weeks.


.

Interesting that parts of the St Lawrence River Valley is also bare on the north side of the storm.
 

What a total bon€r killer for BOS/SE

Well we’re not getting much snow, but I wouldn’t call this the 80s either. My ground would maybe be brown, but it would be frozen 2 feet deep.

Somewhere between the '80s and the mid-Pliocene (Global SSTA +2-3 deg C, Arctic +8 deg C) I'd call it.

Oh my...Fukushima Daiichi nuc wastewater surge again?  from 12/27 NOAA NESDIS

Meanwhile in Greenland:

Really not sure what to think of it. I mean when you look at how 500mb evolves, the scenario is a plausible one, doesn't mean it's likely but at this stage you can't really discount anything. 

The PWAT anomalies are absolutely insane. 5+ SD across a large area

Some Hunga Tonga water in there too I feel

Had a classic November hunters vibe at sun down at 1500ft.  Stick season, cold, with a skiff of snow.  The forest had a very strong nostalgic vibe for how you envision November.

 

Blair Witch vibe.

Some know the temps for thanksgiving, so two weeks should be easy.

Are they factoring in the Typhoon Bolaven recurve in the N Pac?

Are you thinking HM is Henry Margusity?

I thought it was.

This is kinda weather related but I get on twitter occasionally and HM or Anthony Masiello hasn't been on recently. Does anyone know have an idea why? Think his last post there was end of August. I always follow his insights about weather patterns

Still ... for me, I like seeing the 540s hydrostats atop -2C at 800 mbs arriving on the NAM/FOUS grid.

Hearkens the spirit of the season.

Bring it.
