So for my 5000th post I am going to dedicate it to @Blizzard of 93 to remind him that any snow we get this month still technically counts in the 20-21 winter season.  Keep up the hope!

I mean I’m sure it costs an arm and a leg to keep a house at 68 on the Outer Banks, but it’s not like these rental properties aren’t making a killing anyway.

If I ever went to a rental place that had a "lock" on the thermostat I would have to move to another location.

Generally expecting highs in the mid 80s on the coastline next week. It will be humid as crap though. 

You know, I am a rule follower through and through but I'm always challenged to follow my morals on vacation. There's a notice in our house stating not to set the AC below 74 degrees...are you kidding me? 

Yea, 74?  Really its not always the temps as well its the "conditioning of the air" unless one wants soggy papers all through the house.

I'm liking how there is a precip max of nearly 5" in eastern NC and another just offshore with the Outer Banks itself receiving significantly less. Interesting...

I have been noticing less precip down there but did not want to jinx you by saying anything.  You will definitely be cooler than us if the CMC is right again.

Yes! The pressure is off, I fully expect a 14 game winning streak to follow.  

I heard the Sox and Ray's lockers rooms were shaking in fear.

Oh, our upstairs is like the gates of hell. First floor master and no kids (yet) for the win.

That is one difference between me and some of you guys.  We have a long brick rancher with a finished basement so I am in the "upstairs" most of the time.  I do not have any protection between myself and roof except some attic space.

WPC says south central PA might not see much liquid after all:

 

WPC seems to be model mongering.  Maybe I should apply there.  :-)

This is wrong on so many levels I can't begin to go into detail, but anyone waiting until June to turn on the AC will be judged by me. A lot.   

I made one small edit.   

O's win!

We made sure to run it for a few hours on the last warm, humid day last week to make sure it works when we really need it.

We have run ours hundreds of hours already since March.  LOL.  It would be 80 in here without it.

But it is June, so I can now turn on the A/C at any moment without a bit of judgment.

There should never be hesitation turning on the A/C when its in the 90's.   January or June.  Ha.

Remember, I thought it was too extreme with the appetizer for this event before our cold pattern came back and I was dead wrong.

The CMC has spanked other models, when it comes to temps, for months now so definitely not sure it is wrong but a week of 90's is extreme in early June.  I have to hope it away.  LOL. 

Nice this AM.  At least it should be comfortably cool in the AM for all into early next week.   Upper 50's and low 60''s.   Warm mornings do not arrive until close to a week from now.   Maybe a little humidity to go with the cool temps some mornings.

GFS and, to a lesser extent, EC try to break down the pattern late week. CMC’s hottest day is D10. We’ll see.

CMC is an "Open the shelters, bring the animals and lesser fortunate people in" type forecast.  Have to assume(hope) it is too extreme.

Hot, hot, hot coming next week. Wow. 

Summer 2021....right on time.  Wish it would not be as extreme as the CMC though.  Goodbye yards.

I just noticed that you are quickly approaching your 5,000th post!

I can be vociferous. 

GFS is not good for the grasses.  Eh not as bad as I thought.  The total precip map had not updated but not great.

Me 2. I was 13 years old at the time and I was giddy anytime I got a Greg Jeffries rookie card.

Even in this golden age of sports cards where almost everything is worth money today, Gregg Jeffries and Shawn Abner do not cut it.  LOL

I was an Orioles season ticket holder during that era...I'd race home after every game to see how far Sammie or Mac hit one that night. At the very least, baseball was relevant and had captured people's attention. (albeit for the wrong reasons) 

Those two also contributed to lots and lots of wasted money on sports cards.

Curt's head wasn't screwed on straight, Freddie was at the end of his career, and Brady hadn't discovered performance enhancing drugs yet.

Hell yes 90+degree heat high humidity lets do this !!!! The hotter the summer the better I say. If its not snowing then it better be sweltering . I few cold pools aloft is good ,but it can stay up there where it belongs this time of year.  Other than  two over hyped cold snaps its been a very nice spring.  Last year I lost hydrangeas, beans , clematis ,apple blossoms , and a few pepper plants and much of CPA'S low lying brush and plants got tip damage to two late freezes. This year i was spraying for mites and aphids by the second week of April and will have ripe sweet corn by July 21 this year. My earliest corn to date is aug 2 .

The much above average warmth of March 2020 also contributed some to damage.   Our plants were out in front of their schedule when the bad April freeze of 2020 came calling.    It was one of the warmest March's in the 2000's   3rd warmest of the last 20 years I think.  Bad timing for a cold April.

We're 2/3rds of the way to matching our infamous 1988 streak. Of course, that one started the season and many wondered if the O's would ever win. 

A team with Curt Schilling, Fred Lynn and Brady Anderson.  Would have figured one win in there in 21. 

I like seeing the short range models showing some of the LSV waking up wet tomorrow AM.  Get it while we can.

CMC might even allow some places in Canada to hit 100 (or should I say 38?).

We would not have to worry about our grass anymore.

Yeah, there only appear to be two of them on that train so far, but that’s enough.

Euro looks like it ticked up another degree or two from its prior run, and every degree you add is misery.

It definitely did not cancel the heat wave but I would not call for triple digits with temps in the low 90's at 18Z.  CMC is the King though.   CMC would probably break the all time June high at MDT.

Bumped. Go check out what they have to say on the matter. Monsters, I tell ya.

I saw what the one Pro Forecaster said.  I will check out the rest now.  Euro is not nearly as hot as worried.  Definitely hot for early June but probably not record breaking.
