Just designated as 96L. Homebrew

Probably not a lot of time to pop, but homebrew has been hot the last two years

Latest GFS throwing out a 99 at Hartford on Wednesday. This heat wave could be an over performer. Let’s crack 100

Happy birthday!

Not sure if they have AC, but I hope your parents get through it ok @fourseasons. Just keep checking in on them.

Extraordinary

Indeed. Insane heatwave out there.

It’s actually a bit sad to see. This’ll be damaging to the environment at elevation.

All time record for Portland.

Portland up to 106/61 Wow

Here’s the NWS tweet. Some model guidance has the 500mb temp approaching just -2C.

It’s insane. I saw a tweet saying the local NWS is warning about runoff because the freezing level will basically reach the top of mountains. Incredible to see how they can torch which makes me wonder what’s the hottest we could do here if the mid/upper level pattern lined up for epic heat. Maybe 107-108 at say BDL?

I'm wild and I know it.

It’s unreal to me that those places can torch like that. I’d personally love to experience heat like that someday, but that’s dangerous stuff.

My college football viewing has declined in recent years but NFL Football is still the best show on TV IMO, no disrespect to others’ preferences lol.

Now designated as 95L. Something that may be worth watching long term depending on where the center develops.

Yep, it’s an invest now. 95L

Orange 2. A strong tropical wave is expected to emerge off the coast of Africa later today. Although ocean temperatures are still relatively cool over the tropical Atlantic Ocean and are only marginally conducive for development, a small tropical depression could form by early next week while moving westward to west-northwestward at about 15 mph across the tropical eastern and central Atlantic Ocean. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

CV wave getting a lemon now from the NHC. Some pretty robust waves so far this season.

Can’t do nice summer wx better than today.

Great point. It’d probably be enough north of the Gulf Stream for something subtropical SST wise but the airmass ahead is awfully dry. Maybe we can get a short term trend to something more robust. I’m bored lol.

None stick out to me. SSTs and the general landfall steering pattern favoring a TC rocketing north would almost always prevent a TC forming off the Carolinas from becoming a big system.

@jbenedet mentioned this a few days ago but it looks like the guidance is coming around a little low quickly developing in the next 24 hours off the NC coast before getting shunted north to muck up our Friday with clouds and maybe some rain. Too bad the waters are frigid otherwise we’d be talking (weak) tropical.
