The ground is wet and there’s no big sprawling NW flow push. It will be Lower yes, but 60’s BDL, you're summer metric for heat/humidity, is at 57 DP and it's also 57 DP here currently. The ground here isn't wet, as it hasn't rained here since Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good summer DIPA with some citrus flavor. Doubleganger is the best I’ve had so far. Must be nice to be out of the tropics of CT though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna try some Doubleganger tonight. Got a couple cans of that from my dad...traded a variety of Stowe area beers for a variety of Treehouse. I'll see how it is! And while I love visiting family down there and floating the lake...but man it was humid down there. Sometimes we have similar dews and temps but by and large it's 5-10F lower up here in VT it seems. We were playing golf again on Friday morning when IJD was 82/75 at 10am and I was dripping with sweat walking around out there. Just soaked. Then look at the obs up north and it was like 72/66, which is humid to begin with. I think living in the bubble up here I forget what that extra humidity does to the overall feel. That 4-8F increase in dews in the means takes it to another level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 4-8F increase in dews in the means takes it to another level. No doubt about that. I was up in the Tamarack region of Maine last week and what was considered tropical humidity by the local folks just didn't meet my standard of oppressive. Many days were 78-83 during the day and 66-70 at night. 68-71 dews were bad but when dews are consistently hitting 73-77 down here with during surges of tropical air it just didn't feel as oppressive and there was always a breeze by the lake where we were located.

Really nice out there now, clear and calm with falling temperatures. House cools off quickly this time of night. Though there have been a lot of well mixed, southerly flow humid nights this summer. Not as many cool/calm nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people think of their last two weeks, June was BN, first two weeks of july were low dews dry heat, its only become tropical the last 10 days, nice break before another 7- plus day stretch. Copious amount of precip again in the forecast days 5-8 then the pattern breaks and we get back to drier heat. Summer in New England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I consider any dewpoint that keeps the heat index the same as the air temp, or even lower, to be a dry heat. Anything that bumps the HI 5F or more above the ambient T as humid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 First 2 weeks of July were not low dews.

Typhoon Tip Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 That is pretty classic post-mortem 'crowd noise' behavior that is common to this particular social media outlet. Give it a few weeks passe some event that crawled up keesters the wrong way because they just hate it .....and then we get this steady diet of rationalized denials claiming how pedestrian and/or spinning it was something different than how much they resented it ... Wrong! Suck it up - NO: We had 3 or 4 days soaring to 97 over steam-room 75's in that stretch in early July - let's not re-carve the pumpkin on that? ...Jesus. But I suspect - or hope rather ... - folks are just goshin' anyway. Fascinating differences in the operational Euro and GFS runs as of late. The GFS ensemble lines powerful hurricanes out of the Nino 1+2 region of the far E Pacific ... and I suspect (or wonder..) if that is what is contributing to the differences in these two model's mid range/extended synoptic evolution(s). The Euro doesn't have nearly as prolific a tropical handling in that regard. But the difference in that handling might atone for the GFS bigger more stubborn ridging near 110-100 or so W; all that latent heat dump from the exhaust of those majors' pulling seaward S of the Baja is helping to keep its heights large... Basic wave-length arguments then kick-in ...and the flow curves out troughy in the E... It's an indirect teleconnection to active E Pac hurricanes the cooling mid tropospheric regimes unfold over the eastern U.S./SE Canada. The Euro on the other hand... the flow is flatter... Both runs do have earlier mid-range 594 expansive WAR-related heights migrating W... but right after, the Euro keeps the ridge in the west weaker and in fact, shows a bit of a Sonoran release there... This is true in the lesser dependable run types too... The GFS would not give any heat waves... and probably skips days at 90 followed by 80 and convection... The Euro is torridity...and possibly a day if not two in the strech (D4 thru 10) of big heat. interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
