With cloud cover moving in temps decreased a bit down to 92 degrees here, with a dew point at 70. Heat index 98. Looking at the radar, I really hope things start getting more active to our West.

La Nina = Dewey Beach road trip.

If my data is correct, and I believe it is , upper level soil temp has already eclipsed all of 2023's summer months highs. Incredible !!!!

Nice breeze on the early AM walk with the dog.

Have to revisit this in July to determine feedback loops, soil moisture, changes in the pattern,etc. There is more moisture in the atmosphere and with the West Atlantic SSTs getting ready to take off will we will be at high rish from tropical systems.

Only Jun 20 th by that point. You think hottest summer ever here ?
-
Quick thunderstorm last night .25 inches. I was extremely lucky, storm was only a spec on radar.

Well, the more hurricanes the higher the odds. SSTs are going to be boiling by mid July everywhere in the Atlantic basin below 40 N. . A lot depends on the pattern at the time of a threatening hurricane. However, if I lived anywhere along the East Coast, and especially the Gulf, SE and Fla. I would be very prepared for the worse.

Never seen the extent of that anomoly before enveloping the Tidewater and our area.

Might be getting a + PNA in early June, not a very common thing in these parts lately. The heat should at leas be kept at bay.

I believe so. Also interesting is that research shows it means your soil is healthy. Today I see zero mushrooms. -

Do you have mushrooms in your lawn? I have hundreds. Crazy year. Little sun and always showers. -
2024 Mid-Atlantic Garden, Lawn, and Other Green Stuff Thread

Nitrogen is key to a fig tree producing fruit. The fig tree may also require trace minerals and a rather large area under the tree canopy free of grass, but covered with straw to prevent nitrogen run off and to keep a balance of soil moisture. Here is a good link FYI. The title below seems that the article is only about nitrogen, but it is a much broader article in general. https://www.growveg.com/guides/how-to-fertilize-fruit-trees/#:~:text=Once young trees find their,but this method has drawbacks. -

Mine too. I added cow manure recently will give more fruit late in the season. Apply straw mulch as a top dressing to keep moisture in the soil, but also prevent the heat when it gets to 90 and above. Early in the season they say by hitting the lower bark it signals the fig to wake up from its winter slumber. -
What is your current thinking about the weekend rainfall ? WPC seems to have the heaviest rains West of I 95. It is getting dry out there.
-
It's over. Really, talk about upcoming hurricane season. Atlantic Ocean is very warm already.

The Weekend Rule? Saturday 2/17 - The Icon Storm

Seeing reports of 14 inches in East Central PA. -
Would have been a HECS .

For the 6 th year in a row the weeklies sucked. LR Models can not predict HL events, nor the NAM stae, modeling can not predict the AO or the NAO far in advance. Modeling may be able to handle the warm seasons, but when cold is forecasted best to not believe it. This winter was the final straw.
