Are you talking here and May 2005?  I only had measurable precip on 14 out of 31 days in May 2005.  We did have that one 7 day stretch from the 21st that it rained every day but other than that, it wasn't raining every day.

I agree that May has been totally manageable at least for our locale but others have not been as lucky in terms of precip.  I'm not minding the temps at all.  It's been great to get stuff down outdoors and not be sweating.  There's plenty of time for nice warm New England summer days before fall.

Yeah man was that one awful month

Depends. For you, you've had cold nights and chilly temps in the hills this go around. That May, the coast beared the brunt of the disaster. Looks like Saturday and Sunday are 40s for you. 

Lowest temp was 37. 2 days under 50. No wind with sunny breaks . Not great. Not terrible. One of the two weekend days , if not both above 50 as rain starts mid afternoon Sat and ends early Sunday with pm sun . Point is.. 2005 rained almost everyday. Huge difference 

It's not remotely close to a disaster. zero rain and plenty of sunny breaks and manageable temps.

you know, even though we have been trapped under the wheel of ‘rhea, I don’t think it really has been that bad. A week ago it looked like we were going to have off and on rain, with cooler temps. Yes, the temps have been pretty chilly for this time of year, but aside from last weekend, i haven’t seen much rain.

*yes, I also realize that this weekend is going to suck.

Yeah this has been way way overhyped by the usual hyperbole folks

.SYNOPSIS...
Unseasonably cool temperatures continue for the rest of the
work week with a few spot showers at times, but the majority of
this period will feature dry weather. The potential exists for a
period of moderate to heavy rain and gusty winds along the
coastal plain late Saturday through Monday with a late-season
Nor`Easter, track dependent.

 bulk of the rain should overspread
the region Sat afternoon/evening and continue into Sunday.
Heaviest rain most likely Sat night into Sun morning.

All these doomsday all weekend heavy rain washouts lol. Come on folks. You know better. It's a run of the mill rain event ending Sunday morning.

Good Lord at some of these posts today

Gfs all alone. Can be tossed

Ignore the guidance at your own peril. That massive warmup, if it does come looks transient.

Listen to the mets on here and not some phantom gfs run

Every single piece of long range guidance points to a  massive warm period from the 20th on. This month very well may still come in AN

The 12z EPS mean looks mainly below normal temperature wise throughout the period. Even though a ridge does try to move East around the 20th it gets mostly shunted Southwest of NYC with a backdoor moving in for places East of the Hudson River.

More and more support for an OTS suppressed storm for the weekend. Good to see

I think we know which one is wrong.

Did you get snow into the forecast?

Dews today. We wipe more

Yup..the last 10-14 days of the month we quickly torch. the end is clearly in sight. No problem

KWA?

Should there be preparations for power outages next week in SNE with snow on leaves?

The EPS disagrees

Glad we don't live in NJ

It's not going to pan out like that lol. Meteorology, not modelology

I did laugh at his comment. Good one. 

He's acting like it's May 05 again. A few days of sunny mornings and pm cu buildup and scattered showers and 50's isn't end of world stuff

Pretty colors at 500 FTL
