  1. yeah no unfortunately ... the court of public opinion in this particular ( or any most likely ..) social mediasphere will predictably ignore principle achievement while formulating their impression of reality. Obviously, in order to maintain their personal biases in these sort of debates - tediously too. Like over decimals when the principle of this, seems to completely escape their awareness. but good luck
  2. yeah right ... I'm mean I'm preaching to the quire here but mmm ... it's kinda difficult to run a winter expectation when the world is warming. At baser arithmetic level, let's just say that warming is not synonymous with snow. I mean, we can get into the whole debate about burgeoning atmospheric ambient WV going up, such that when it snows it snows harder. You'd be correct. But that's during the 'initial stages' of this 'Anthropocene Epoch' - terminology debate ongoing amid the global scientific ambit. At some point, harder and hard snows become harder and harder mix ... eventually, cold rain. But something else is happening also. The CC that doesn't exist while something simultaneously fucks up actual climate ( ) is also represented in morphology of storm tracks. Storm behavior and morphology in and of themselves... Types and distribution. Speed of the ambient winter hemispheres - there's a reason most commercial airliner air-land speed flight records have been set in the last 20 years, on west to east intercontinental transits, and it's not because the vehicles are necessarily better. Any evolution of aeronautical design and power conversion mechanics via jet engine propulsion cannot account for taking off from Laguardia and landing at Heathrow in 3.5 hours... or whatever that was ( just 1 ex). Anyway, all this shit effects how/if a storm snows too. Think of it this way. We have a front side dammed in cryogen airmass, but the storm is moving some 15% faster than past climo storm motion... But the evaporation and other physics remain constant - that means the the storm moves by and limits snow, but warms the column in time to clip with more mix to rain scenarios. Just being a little creative here to exemplify the point... But, that 1 in 10 storm that stays snow, yeah...snowed more than expected - for now.
  3. I've been personally looking for a Bahama Blue circulation mode to set up... It's when you get a deep layer cross-latitudinal flow straight along and off the EC ... S to N with mass gathering from the eastern Gulf meshing in with Trade circulation fields turning NW through the Bahamas and all the way up the stream comes. It's actually some of my most fascinating weather...just knowing the the deep blue with brilliant narrow turreted CU towers and their blinding single pixel rain shafts are bring the tropics to a none tropical climate. heh. Anyway, I have seen some hints of that in recent guidance but not convincing.
  4. Beyond this weekend .. what we got? The CPC's enhanced probability for above normal temperatures. Just a primer (again..) on how to use this product: the intensity of red colorization does not mean higher scalar temperature. Orange hues progressing to red means greater and greater probability of above normal temperature in that order. In other words, this product says nothing of the magnitude of above normal. If the days turned out +0.01 ..this product was successful. Very high probability of above normal with that deep insidious dried scab over NM for example, means that there is a very high probability, based upon whatever methods CPC uses to assess, that the time range will average between 0 and Nth degrees above normal. This all conceptually true at the other side for BN, obviously. Having said all that, yeah...there some semblance of trend in the operational longer range means to roll another warm interlude out of the west. That observation matches timing with the day 8-14 from the same source above as a progression timing. The teleconnector numerical fields are positive-nominal ( AN but not +AN). SO ....there's likeliness for AN from all this blended info but nothing that smacks as exceptional at this time. It's important and obvious to note that telecons and these spatial synoptic layouts, et al, are more stochastic in summer, which doesn't lend to predictive skill.
  5. I, for perhaps one, am psyched for this impending rain. Well timed, while also well needed. Just commencing here... showery and vaguely convective N of the more obvious downpours sliding up ENE out of CT ...ranging to strata rains over Upstate NY and CNE. This is occurring through 13z tomorrow morning, and then the moisture fields/sigmas make it appear as though we actually fracture the ceilings and sun wins out over the course of the afternoon hours, NW-SE, tomorrow. It's a work day and night ... this is when we ...or I, prefer it. Wouldn't mind a solid 3" soaker but as me grandmammy always used to say, 'beggars can't be choosers'. Saturday still projects to be the very best weather in terms of subjective consensus, this summer ...or any summer, can provide on Earth. If you want something better... I don't know, go to "Pandora" or something I guess. It's like regional mean of 78/50, under the last days of solar max irradiance, thru 100 mi type visibility air moved around by caressing zephyrs. Altho..hm, not sure of Michigan smoke but cross that bridge.. . Sunday looks pretty much the same, too. Jeez

  7. yeah i was pretty sure it was that late june one just curious. actually got to wondering how often it is to get 1k high orh to do that just in general - as in return rate.
  8. Orh back to back days 90 or better. last time that happen ?
  9. This is basically what it’ll be doing here tomorrow night Reflectivity
  10. lot of 96 and 97 around again this afternoon. Won't make 100 but damn this is still hot and are still Big Heat numbers
  11. Yeah that consensus is more of a strata layout deal N of the Pike from what I'm seeing and knowing how these modeled synoptic scenarios tend to go. There's likely to be some bumpy clumps on the satellite training along southern zones for a time, but the whole axis is settling SE. Seems Friday may correct toward breaking cloud in the afternoon, because the subtle but crucial small tendency to flatten the whole thing means that it is also slightly accelerating almost unnoticed as well. Saturday may be up there among the best quality days this summer's had to offer -
  12. late to the party today but it may also be a shifted to far south for that, too
  13. Oh yeah, those east west running roads down here like Route 2 or the Pike and Route 9 in Framingham they absolutely broil even at 70 mph they’re sometimes 5 abv NWS
  14. I'm a little leery of the cooler August ideas ... I see the cool-down as being typically oversold by longer range models. Something more seasonal/average, then fading into Act III .... then we "break back" Friday rain not included - It's just my personal sense of where this is going. Those pesky non-linear aspects ( trend and trend' ) keep trying to lower heights in the Pac NW as kind of rest state and every time we deflate the eastern ridge, that tends to force it back. So right now the linear structures happen to look autumnal but I'd like to wait that out and see
  15. yesterday's mid 90s followed by a 95-100 today, and probably at least low 90s tomorrow ... this is a pretty damn potent heat wave. 2nd place on the season.
  16. actually the GFS nailed this from 2 or 3 days ago. I brought it up/posted that the model was roasting on one of those runs - but i haven't paid attention since.
