  1. That's the coldest snapshot though, it's a full blown ridge after that. I wouldn't be surprised if it got pushed back though
  2. Weeklies are still a torch for July. They have not backed down. This is the coldest snapshot from yesterday's run. I expect the weeklies to adjust and show more cooler weather in this time frame, but still well above normal for the month
  3. Interestingly, I was on the north shore when I posted that. Seems that there's pockets of thicker smoke in certain areas. Visibility down to 2.5 miles at ISP, though it doesn't look as bad now as it was before (I'm back on the south shore now), the smoke was thick earlier. I was very surprised given how clear it was around noon/late morning And yes, the sea breeze would bring in more smoke as there's less mixing out
  4. Looks like the visibility is going down a little bit outhere. Still very smoky when looking into the distance. Visibility was around 8 miles at ISP around 1pm, now it's down to 3 miles
  5. Still in the thick of it on LI. Hasn't improved yet. Street lights coming on
  6. Visibilities less than a mile now. Looks unreal outside. Everything is orange, the smell is strong. Unreal
  7. Unbelievable, never seen smoke this thick before in my life. This is insane!
  8. Getting very intense and close lightning strikes even though radar returns are moderate at best. Lots of lightning today
  9. Missed the hail, still decent thunderstorm. Never seen hail in my life here
  10. Picked up 0.14". Needed more but it'll do for now. Just glad to see some rain
  11. Temps climbing slower than usual. Smoke is blocking out most of the sun. Lots of near ground smoke too, can see it in the distance
  12. Maybe you guys need some better insulation! I had the window open last night, coldest it got was 64 inside. Hoping these clouds break up soon
  13. Tons of new fires popping up, now in eastern Canada. A lot of places, arguably a large chunk of North America are experiencing drier than normal conditions, and places north of here are well above average with 90's well into Canada. Tons of fuel for fires to develop and keep going. Only places that have been wetter than normal are the extreme Southeast and just east of the Rockies. I don't think I've ever seen so many fires burning in eastern Canada, western yes, but eastern Canada is typically cooler and wetter in the spring. All we can hope for is some rain!
  14. I expect another above average summer. It's almost impossible to have a below average one nowadays. 2014 was "cool" but really lacked any significant heat. 2009 was the last real cool summer around here. Every year since then has been near average to above average. When in doubt, you could always go above average and you'll be right more often than wrong. FWIW, Euro seasonal and weeklies have a ridge building over the central US come July with cooler than normal temps to our NE. Interested to see if this verifies, or just model noise.
  15. Forecast for today is sunny, but today is akin to a day with tons of high level clouds/cirrus due to all the smoke in the sky from the wildfires. It gives that dull, gloomy feeling to what should be a sunny day. Bummer
  16. Beautiful day, 78 degrees. Take note, those "clouds" to our northeast are not clouds but smoke from wildfires raging in Alberta and British Columbia in Canada. Impressively thick smoke from thousands of miles away
  17. HRDPS has 95 for BDL (Windsor Locks), Connecticut tomorrow. BDL is sitting at 92 right now so mid 90's for tomorrow would be a good bet there. Crazy to be talking temps near 100 degrees in New England in April
  18. Solid 80 degrees here still with good breeze off the water
  19. 82 and sunny 67 degrees just a couple miles to my SE. Happy to not be in the sea breeze today!

  21. Down to 32. Moderate snow, coating on most surfaces, streets wet
  22. Need your snow fix? Here's a live feed from Maine with lots of deer. If only it was here!
  23. Pretty sure it's ice pellets. Under decent radar returns right now but my visibility is pretty high. I was under heavy snow before
