Absolute garbage. It has no place here.

Love of wx is conditional for many. Not passing judgement…

Now that’s a beaut. Hope your summer is going well.

Maybe a little inflow down near Lebanon, @weatherwiz? E CT with the goods today.

I think it was last year when I was away when two tornado warned supercells went right over my house in consecutive days. Can’t make it up.

At least I’m not home to experience the miss imby live.

And if not for the foresight of installing those sensors in vulnerable areas, you guys may not have been able to respond as quickly as you did. Infrastructure matters.

I think wall to wall 70 is going to be very hard, even 20 years from now, but there’s no doubt one of the biggest changes in our summers the last 40 years has been the humidity.

Yeah, we'll probably get some action. If not from later tomorrow perhaps tomorrow morning in southern CT.

Beautiful evening out there.

Late high gets mby into heat wave territory

Same thing happened to me last year. Then just like that they were gone.

Hot July and August. Step down in September/October. 80 in early November. Fake start to “winter” after Veteran’s Day. Blowtorch December, cold rain January, furnace February. Winter arrives March 1 and ends March 17. Chilly and muddy late March through first 2/3 of May. Spring from June 1-10. Steadily rising heat and dews thereafter. Rinse and repeat…rinse and repeat…rinse and repeat…

Heat index of 106 in New Haven with a 78 dew.

Still early for us but let’s see what the steering pattern looks like in August. I’m always wary of fronts in September sweeping things OTS.

This. We would be highly unlikely to get a -6 in January just as much. The temps since that June heat wave may not be memorable, but what the general public constantly comments on is how the humidity regime has changed. Here or in the basin? Two very different things

Maybe, but we have to play the delicate balance every year of ECONUS troughing and Atlantic ridging.

2.88” MTD here. Some places in western CT nearly doubled my total today.

Western CT getting drenched under that FFW

Invest 93L off the FL coast now. Looking pretty good. We’ll see if it’s coherent after crossing Florida.

Maybe not?

It’s coming.

So much for a dry day lol

I do think the designations of a reg FFW and then the emergency alerts going off when you get to considerable or catastrophic is an excellent change. The FFEs as well. People do heed those.

I agree that happens, but then the time you have no watch and all hell breaks loose people wonder why forecasters dropped the ball…or in the most dramatic and tragic of consequences people die. Idk if there’s a particularly great way to do this. I think we also suffer from the bias that we’re weenies here. We track and follow this stuff. For some person that’s completely clueless about wx, a watch may actually be helpful because otherwise they would’ve had no idea if not for the local news mentioning it on their way out of the door or popping up on their dumb (sorry, editorializing lol) weather app.
