Hey now, I relocated to here a year ago. I have experienced a CT summer already. I know that it can and does get into the 90s, I just got the impression from last year that it wasn't something that happens a lot in a given summer like it does where I came from (and last summer was above normal, apparently?), so already being hit with this at the beginning of June is yucky.

Just hope my A/C can keep up with it. I can't afford to get a window unit for my bedroom right now.

You got the right impression

Another example, they've had Thursday as mostly sunny in their forecast.. still do.. No mention of PM storms.. Weird

I'm in Florida at the moment so not in the know but maybe they're short staffed?

When is UPTON going to learn. They had mostly sunny in their forecast last Sunday Monday and Today. All 3 days ended up being mostly cloudy

Maybe they should hire you, the best forecaster to come out the Cann

Long range turning to shit again, why is it so hard for these models to jump into summer in New England..  

Because New England sucks

At Costco in Enfield and hoping this moves out but it seems like the back edge keeps back building 

Any good samples?

Yeah, especially since I'll be in Florida. You can have your 91/77.

We'll see. I expect a AN and humid summer. That's just our new climo. But high end stuff? Yeah not sure.

Dammit no, please say that's not true

Hey @H2Otown_WX i just added a full radar loop of your favorite storm Dec 30th 2000 and Feb 5th, Mar 4-6th 2001 as well as Dec 2003 and Jan 2005. Even the blizzard of 96 is now up. All new snowfall maps as well. I cant link them here cuz the file sizes are massive.

Hell yeah man, thank you. Appreciate your hard work. Look at that radar loop for December 2000. That's a sexy storm and a rare distribution these days with west beating east.

Was ACATT expecting a week + of 90’s? I mean that’s a very. Very warm and AN look . With dews, uncomfortable days and nights for those seeking 50’s and rains all summer 

At what point are you going to give up on the big heat and humidity summer? 4th of July? Labor Day?

What the hell is an oak dong? I thought oaks just had leaves?

My wife may feel some type of way about that  

I don't have a wife and never will (thanks autism) so maybe I'll have to make a trip

95° and sunny here in Vegas

Heavy heavy Bunny Ranch?

Glad this is rain, I would've melted if it were January

 BDL at 3.71? I thought the big totals were going to be on the coast.

This was the 12z run, 18z backed off quite a bit but still has a large of 2"+ and by large swath I mean basically all of CT/RI/MA with totals approaching 3" in southern VT.

Dumb stat. 2005 was brutal and that's not even included. It's a bit more often than that.

Also what about 2013?

Big differences in the models for precip totals and location of QPF max just like a winter nor'easter. NAM goes absolutely bonkers @ BDL with 3.71" on BUFKIT. GFS only around 1.5" and the HRRR about 1". Who will win? Oh and the Euro is about 1.8" with the QPF max farther southwest towards my area and southwest of there. Euro and NAM kind of look similar so perhaps the old "EE rule" will be in effect?

I do! I had to do quite a bit of walking today and the weather is just perfect for that. No sweating, no sun in my eyes. Also, it feels amazing in my apartment and I'll be sleeping under covers tonight (as I have been the past couple of nights). All of that makes me happy. Not looking forward to the walking I'll have to do when it gets warm/hot. This weather happening in late May is a blessing to me.

Hmm, well having spent a miserable spring and summer in Little Rock I guess I can understand why you prefer this lol

50 degrees and overcast. It was perfect weather for my walks today. Tomorrow won't be so great for that due to the rain, but I appreciate it staying cooler! And keeping us from going back into drought is good, too.

You like this weather? Too cold to me for late May.

I know it's been mentioned a few times here, but wanted to make a point to mention https://windy.com for weather maps and models.  It's come a long way from wind/waves that it focused on when it first started.  They also have apps for iOS/iPad and Android.  I'm seriously considering a premium subscription.

Nice find, will be adding to the bookmarks

Man, Thursday looks like we'll be taking a page right out of the Shitwaukee playbook. Mid 40s with driving rain on a NE wind in late May.
