This/these are becoming seemingly perfunctory by now but ... https://phys.org/news/2026-07-england-warmest-june-met-office.html

About identical here except we're 72 dp .. but it's nuts either way - particularly when knowing our climatology would have this normally be the apex day of any seasonal heat wave - which this is clearly something special when today is the low ball day. 103 and 100 back to back is within reach ... I realize the safe bets a couple of 99ers but synoptically... could send this toward the hottest 2-day thermal aggregate ever, looking tomorrow thru Friday. We'll have to see. NAM 18z suggestion at LGA and probably BOS: (103 + 84 + 100)/3 = 95.67 ... I bet you'd be hard pressed to find that historically. If so ... this is probably top 3

I have never seen this grid show this many back to back periods > 30C at BOS (left) LGA (right) 24000485024 01493 112610 81 34 2617 24000503712 -2793 142307 81 34 2620 30000464213 -1694 102715 82 34 2617 30000483314 -1193 122510 83 35 2720 36000635017 -2394 112815 80 30 2517 36000584113 00493 133013 81 32 2619 42000736850 02293 122910 77 28 2316 42000644516 00395 153008 79 30 2416 48000423036 01099 102811 79 33 2416 48000413519 00996 132910 81 34 2617 That's a 2AM 30 C at LGA (right) ... 28 at Logan's negotiable, too. But Jesus... that's 90 overnight in Lower Manhattan ... and almost that at Gov. Center. This is the hottest multi interval aggregate I've ever seen on this NAM grid... I shall miss this product when it finally leaves us later this summer - is that still happening?

I'm fascinated by heat synoptics as meteorologically trackable phenomenon. And also now more than ever, a recognized phenotype that comes with sensible weather-related hardships and actual risks ...etc. I don't like actually being in it. I think that's fair. People are fascinating with shit. Curiosity. There are those interested in nuclear physics ... why should that mean they should enjoy wondering sightless through the smoldering aftermath of a nuclear holocaust? I think it's a bit of a petty overreach to criticize ourselves for being fascinated with deep historic cold and blizzards, tornadoes and hurricanes... big heat waves, super volcanoes and cosmic ray bursts. Now, if someone is wanton of destruction and seeing other's in harms way then suffering losses ..etc, that's something else. Perhaps a weird sociopathy

Yeah, I don't have an oil option here. Not sure what the comparison would be. Part of problem with oil is the carbon footprint. My aim after consult with the install engineer was that using power from solar... even if it still needs to be supplemented by the NGRID ( which I call Ngrip or nut grip.. ) would be 'doing what I can' ... and not purely dumping C02 into a system already force fed. So, together with lowering demand by a much more efficient compressor (mini splits) ..etc I'm not part of the meal, just crumbs.

Yeah to be fair ... my property is small. My square roof space is not aplenty. But, my plan was to replace these hugely outmoded cash pig base board electric resisters with a heat compressor sys. These mini splits have been divine. And they're about 8% of the electrical use compared to those base board runners. Resister are just money eaters. I also updated all the windows in the house. Between these moves, and the panels, which I feel could have been better with one more, I am paying substantially less. SO not a complete failure. But I just feel they edged my sys in their favor - which is frustrating. It's supposed to be in my favor, and in favor of being responsible to the bigger problem facing everyone ...etc

I'm not happy. I mean... I take some ethical value away for helping by trying to go green where I can, but humanity is completely and utterly fucked if they think they can solve anthropomorphically forced GW by means of capitalism and profit mongering - seeing a solution through a lens of greed. Good luck. And that is what this whole solar wave of install marketed as sistering to the grid bullshit is being exposed as. I was actually gapped by my company, which filed for bankruptcy and doesn't even exist anymore. I got a mailers ... I think some other outfit has absorbed them - but my electric bills were cut down so I'm willing to wait on investigation until I get these other home improvement scheduled projects completed - new kitchens make solar corruption look like a reach around at a Asian massage parlor but that's a different thing. Anyway, there's clearly enough room up on that roof for another panel but they held back claiming some bs about them needed 3.5 feet of distance that I don't see on any other house down the street - so frankly am suss. If I had that panel, I might not be paying as much. I call that 'gapping' haha. You know ... a digression here, but that is what is a part of this whole Disclosure thing is about? There's this ontological shock aspect about it, and the idea there is that the baser commodity that is the soil that all economic branches grow from, is in jeopardy because there is this shadow corporate-governance lording over technology that could provide free energy at the individual controls. Such a reality would completely freeze the gears of economics. Oil becomes obsolete as a energy mechanism... solar? Gone. Wind and renewables et al, albeit virtuous and perhaps even morally more sound than burning fossil fuels which are definitely a problem... all of it... the whole conflict and any economy that is rooted in oil at all. Gone. Here's the sociological problem with that - which is very real, btw. Economy is what allows societies to function 'over the horizons' It's the unfailing faith in the value of the dollar ( or whatever native form of currency). If zero-point energy ( being able to tap into the 10 e19th eV vacuum energy of the cosmos), and negative gravity propulsion systems ... the disruption to social order really is an ontological a-bomb.

The NAM MOS is trying to Charlie Brown the bigger numbers on Friday. Not a lot but MET is just 95, BDL to MHT, which barely makes the 'big heat' cut. For three straight days and 18 consecutive cycles, we were plugging 100s - we'll see if this late change is supported in general. Looks like it's inserting spontaneously generating convective debris which cannot really be ruled out absolutely...

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change

Yeah...agreed. I wasn't interested in nailing down - per se - where it is we "actually" are... full disclosure ( there's alien technology being hid from us!!! repent repent) no but to be honest, I'm wondering if CR can be trusted or might have known this or that. I mean I don't know anymore. This f era of reality and civility ... it's got a problem. One that is almost as big as GW and it's entirely self-manifesting at species' level.
