NorEaster27 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 What a localized crappy disaster of a day here today from a cluster of T-storms and the resultant outflow boundaries. Just one flair up after another over the same 20 mile wide corridor all afternoon saw a pretty good strom on the north end of the lake, enough to bring the boat back to shore. Very loud thunder and lightning hitting the mountains, saw it even had a severe t-storm warning. Rain never made it far enough south to affect me and it was a nice day with clouds to my north and south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also a storm around exit 21 and we were running out of lake to hide on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really looking forward to my trip to Oneida Lake next week, I hope the hot weather stays away and I can catch a sub 50 degree morning while I'm up there! btw : I have family reunions at Silver Bay bi-yearly. I stay at the Inn. absolutely gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be up there from Wednesday the 13th to Monday the 18th. I see some 50ish lows in the first part of my trip. I can't wait, the summer in Georgia has been miserable so far. I think we are pushing 40 days of 90+ heat already.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Eww sounds ugly.... No 90's here ...just an 89 about a month, an 86 that same period, three or four 84's, and maybe six days have come in at 80-83. The rest of the time 70's and a few chilly days in June. Thanks!

Yesterday made up for July 4th as we had a perfect 79 degree day with enough high/mid level clouds to take away the intensity of the early summer sun. Got all my yard work done and wasn;t drenched in sweat. It was your turn to get drenched all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 It was nice yesterday until around 1 PM and hit 75... Then it clouded up fast and the dew point jumped around 10 degrees to the upper 60s as the showers and mugginess pushed up from the south. We got at least 2 inches of rain...doppler shows 3" not very far west. Basically a swamp here again with the clay soil. LOL Looks nice again now.....

With the exception of a 1.5" downpour before the 4th, its been dry. Lots of brown patches in the yard. I like that. To paraphrase Johnny Cochran, "If the grass dont grow, you must not mow".

Polarbear Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Wondering aloud about MCS moving across W & C NYS tomorrow evening & night? Hopeful for something...

West Point, NY Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Today will make it a tie! Not quite as today had slightly higher humidity. Yesterday sitting by the pool you got a chill from the North wind....... which despite being 82 degrees, had a bit of a bite to it when you are wet. That combined with deep blue sky and an unabated, strong sun could not be topped for the enjoyment of any outdoor activity.......except skiing BIG YEAR UPCOMING FOR THE PHANTOMS........The CC will be rocking with the new roster and video board.

Logan11 Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 75 on Saturday here and 80 on Sunday. If you like Summer weather then this would be perfect I guess. 53 for a low early today and that was lovely. I find the sun too darn searing hot in June/July. I much prefer August/September. Great that we have lost 15 minutes of daylight already. Not quite as today had slightly higher humidity.

Flying MXZ Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Great that we have lost 15 minutes of daylight already. The lost daylight is certainly is noticable, considering I get up at 4:30 and try to stay outside until it is dark. I'd rather flip a switch and lose the daylight in November or so. The heat can go at anytime though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 59 this morning was nice again. Now a couple days in the mid 80's I suppose...then some very refreshing air.

Logan11 Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Yep an even 70 was the low here..... nasty. On the other hand KALB only got to 77 in their urban heat island....

LithiaWx Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 It looks as I timed my trip up to Oneida Lake perfectly. A cold front is moving through today/tomorrow and it looks beautiful for Wednesday and Thursday, slowly warming up until I leave on Monday. I could not be happier. Heat index near 115 today in Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 The absence of a downslope here meant that the west/then nw winds kept us in the low 80's. Windy, but still quite humid into the early afternoon, but gradually lowering humidity thereafter and very pleasant by dinnertime. Morning low of 70, High of 81.

Temp down to a very enjoyable 64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it was a problem but my realitives up here said it cleared out this morning. I'm not sure if that means it's done or could come back but apparently it's not a problem right now. What a beautiful day, stiff breeze and temps are amazing compared to what I came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 That's a brilliant location you have there for radiational cooling. I can't even compete......but it was a lovely 53F here for a low today (Thursday). One down, 48.5°. Perfect summer weather.
