It was a phenomenal evening. Spent most of the afternoon/evening in ORH with some friends.

Beautiful morning. I’m still soft selling the Euro but I’m getting more intrigued.

Yeah—I’m just talking about 100° in June. That seems far more rare. I only see 1952 and 1964 on NOWData. There was a 99° on 5/26/2010 from what I see. Assuming something doesn’t muck it up, next week looks pretty anomalous for this time of year.

The only time I can find BDL hitting 100° in June is 6/30/64. Would be impressive if it happens next week.

High of 90.3° at home

DC smoked by a bow and confirmed tor heading toward Philly.

This seems like a nowcast day. Models are all over the place on both initiation and coverage of convection.

What interesting SNE wx actually produces these days? We’re a poor man’s San Diego.

120mph/953mb

Now those are beautiful

64kt or bust

New England into the Mid-Atlantic/Southeast... Strong heating is expected across a broad, moist warm sector with dewpoints in the upper 60s to low 70s east of the Appalachians by Thursday afternoon. This will result in moderate to potentially strong instability across much of the East Coast. The best chance for more organized storms will be from central Virginia northward where stronger shear will be present beneath 50 knot mid-level flow. A zone of potentially greater severe weather probabilities may be present across the Mid-Atlantic where the greatest instability/shear are expected to overlap. It appears the cold front will lag well behind with the majority of convection developing along a pre-frontal trough during the afternoon. Without the stronger frontal forcing, some concerns about convective coverage/intensity exist, precluding higher probabilities at this time.

The VIL on that severe warned storm is big time

I’d come down to chase!

Extrapolated pressure now at 972.5mb, with FL peak of 93kt and SFMR of 88kt. Not bad.

Will posting pictures of an EF-3 tearing through town while Kev smokes cirrus.

I’m stirring the pot but yeah, I do think we could see an ENH kind of day tomorrow in part of New England and the Mid-Atlantic.

For the weenies among us

Erick is really looking good. Recon will be interesting.

Nice call. GFS and Euro hint right at that tonight.

Miss those days, or should I say nights.

I was gone for a while but your melt the other day was an all timer. Short and sweet. As I hope you’ve seen by now, this place is just for laughs. There’s plenty of ribbing and sometimes it’s brutal lol but for the most part it’s all “love”. I like my summers but given where you came from I get wanting to have cooler summers. Imagine it…an early July day with a deep summer feel…90/68 with beach, barbecues, brews, and bikinis as far as the eye can see…kids laughing playing in the sand, the sound of cans opening and bottles clinking as the waves roll in. Phones down, music up. The way it’s meant to be.
