Typhoon Tip

KFIT has 12 min to come up with 2 F to make 90 by 9 88 may be within error threshold anyway, just sayn'

It is harsh on the body, no question. I don't know if "cheering" is the right word. I mean sure... there's always someone, but for most, it's the novelty of witnessing an extraordinary event. We nick 100 F on our big heat days, with enough frequency to numb us to the significance of 1-0-0. But getting a possibility for every site to be 101 to 104? mm that is definitely novel enough to the area to take note. It's a special anomaly ... it seems there may be an "air" ( pun hopefully annoying haha) of synergistic heat bomb about this, too. There are several factors that are likely to propel this into the "rogue wave" territory - the New England version of it, today. One observation of note ... there was a peculiar temperature rise of 2 to 3 F at several home sites around the area, which took place at 2am, after we had settled off to 74-ish. Back up to 77... this happened well before the light rose during the bowls of deep dark night. And it continued to rise decimals per 5 minute click off through dawn. Now, 90 and 91s are common at 8:30. This is how synergy manifests. I don't believe the models are seeing these idiosyncratic positive feed-backs... Anyway, human curiosity takes over. There's also a ton of scientific significance to novel scenarios. But imho, I don't think the average observer of this is wantonly cheering on a injury - and if they are, they should be guided to jumping off the cliff first as their poetic justice.

wondering if this is at last a synergistic heat today -

yeah, this is a recurring ob elsewhere even inland. this is a strangely anomalous territory scenario -

I have several home sites within a mile of me all 87 or 88 as of 7:45 am... never seen this while living here, and not sure I have ever at all living along 42 N between the lower Lakes and SNE over the years.

That's an impressively elevated low for that region of the interior.

86 now .. jesus. Forget 90 by 9, we're at least in the ballpark of 90 by 8

7:30 AM T 84 me thinks we don't have a problem making 100 considering it was 99 for high here yesterday, and we're still in the same predicament air mass, but today has the advantage of a loftier head start.

this is nutty heat

100's popping up all over in between the K sites at NWS

KASH 97/75

Lowell 99/78 ah yeeeah

That's what makes it infuriating - it absolutely will be "in the city" ... who the fuck gives a shit whether it's that way or not at Logan's annexed seagullshitsville

Looks like we're at the bounce temperature... You may spike decimals and squeeze another click or even two from that but the rest temp is probably 95 or 96 regionally. I think this was above NAM MET ?

wondered that too but I'm thinkin' ... we shed a half dozen in DP we're definitely gain some back on the T side so does it matter . you know? 102/69 vs

How about a grid-wide power crisis brown down now -

KBAF 99/74

right... good point, yeah. It would be interesting if there was a "HI climate curve" - I'm sure there has to be I just curious if there's offsets

96/75 here

KORE 97/72

The funny thing is ... this would be more difficult ( I suspect ) if it were the July 20 variety. At this time of year, "geologically" we just walked out the door from spring rains climate and our shoes are still wet. The grasses are all green and lush, and trees are all perky flopping leaves... they are just dumping evapo -tran water vapor into the ambience at a very high mass load. The idea? perhaps higher than later July when a month of summer desiccation has spend soil moisture bank account. These sources are less proficiently adding back to the air. I'm just wondering if July 20 is climate high temperature... but if the HI climate is actually a tad before that because we may get better combinations of DP with sun and source in the ends of Junes to something like July 10.

NAM 12z FOUS grid at Logan tomorrow, 18z 30000391714 -3499 132715 82 35 26 18 The last time I saw a vertical profile of temperatures like this ( they're in degrees C, from left to right corresponding to the 1000, 900, and 800 mb levels), was 36 hours prior to the heat wave in 1999 - which actually ... the next runs backed off. This was back when the NAM was not yet the NAM. It was it's predecessor known as the ETA. That 1000 mb T of 35 C is going to be 39 or even 40 C at the floor of the BL where explosive thermal overturning between the air and surface(s) constitutes the actual 2-meter temperature there. In lay terms ... 39 ~ 102 and 40 ~ 104

You know... I dunno sometimes it seems sort of self-indulgent to run AC - in my case, the mini split sys. Yeah, it'd take care of it and I'd be all comfortable but I cannot stop myself from considering the ‘physical mathematics’ of it. What's the expense. First of all, cooling the air in here asks the grid for additional energy. The high efficiency of the mini split system, notwithstanding, it's still requesting the grid to provide. Which, generates that power (ultimately) by releasing more green-house gasses. In theory, this adds heat to the surrounding ambience' unrelenting efforts to raise the temperature inside the house ... Thus, the mini split automation necessarily works harder, and in doing so ... asks the grid for more energy. And one can see where this is going - feedback loop. Now, imagine that all households that can, are, doing the same ... to mention the enormous total load requirement when thinking about the total residential and non-residential environmentally controlled environments... suddenly, this is not such a "cooked" up morality issue - it really should be. To combat this cognitive dissonance … I find myself enduring the heat as long as I possibly can. I just looked at it and 80 was the point at which bead of sweat evidenced itself … at that point I figure it becomes a health and safety priority in the here-and-now. To make up for it though … I just don’t run the cooling setting on merely pedestrian summer days that often.

what's the ML lapse rate ... It's not really 'wasted' to me, if there's no acceleration anyway.
