Mets and models busting badly right now....any reason why?

 

 

Close to 3 inches of rain the last two days. Started today at 1pm and just got done. We have had enough rain, let these lawns burn out

 

 

Pouring here now, never seen it rain so hard

You might be thinking more of 2011. Last August was between +1.5 and 2.5 above normal. 2011 saw the July heat end after the first week of Augus then the warm/rain occured. Last year and 2010 he heat continued thru August. This year I am leaning warmer than normal and had originally had august as the most positive departures.

I remember last August being cooler than last July because I wasn't using my AC that much.

10AM Roundup.   Today will be the 1st of which should be at least 5 90+ days for many (even the park).  some left over clouds should ccontinue to mainly clearout over the next couple of hours.

Can anyone remember the last time SPC had us in the D7 Severe Weather Outlook?

It's the strongest cold front we've seen this summer thus far, with potentially a major thermal gradient. We've got +10c 850's to the north and +20c to the south. Additionally, strong kinematic parameters (high wind shear) coupled with impressive thermodynamic (95/75 airmass, so CAPE will be plentiful) will probably yield an interesting period convection wise in the Northeast. We may see some differential advection type MCS activity early this week as well.

I can't remember the last time we had a strong squall line move through

You can really see the marine influence with convection forming to our north under the 

massive 594 dm ridge. If this ridge built in from the west instead of the east, then we would

likely be seeing highs at places like EWR of 100+ and full sun.

Heat Advisory up now for most of the area

 

... Heat advisory in effect from noon to 8 PM EDT Monday... 

The National Weather Service in New York has issued a heat
advisory... which is in effect from noon to 8 PM EDT Monday.

* Locations... western Long Island... interior portions of northeast
New Jersey... the lower Hudson Valley... and interior portions of
southern Connecticut.

* Hazards... heat.

* Heat index values... up to 100 due to temperatures in the middle
90s and dew point temperatures near 70.

* Timing... highest heat index values will occur during the
afternoon and early evening on Monday.

* Impacts... initial impacts if no protective action is taken... 
fatigue. Sunstroke... muscle cramps... and/or heat exhaustion is
possible.

Precautionary/preparedness actions... 

To reduce risk during outdoor work the occupational safety and
health administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by
heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke
is an emergency... call 9 1 1.

A heat advisory is issued when the combination of heat and
humidity is expected to make it feel like it is at least 95
degrees for two consecutive days or if heat index values reach 100
to 104 degrees. Take extra precautions if you work or spend time
outside. When possible... reschedule strenuous activities to early
morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion
and heat stroke. Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water.
