I mean its been hot and humid but not close to any records. By my count, I've had 22 days of 90F+ at TAN. Definitely above normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 This month will finish AN here, probably enough to make met summer AN by overcoming June's -2. However, the chances of it being the warmest August in our 21 here have pretty much evaporated, axed by the past 2 weeks being slightly BN. Would need for the last 5-6 days to run +10 to have a chance, and while I expect some heat, it won't be that hot. Edit: That "Tallying up the heat" table suggests that the BOS/PVD 70s minima records are in play. All the other numbers look AN but not all that noteworthy.

U20s in the valley with pack hanging on, just above freezing at ORH, then 40F at the bald peaks in the NE CT hills with lots of melting, dripping, and bare spots in the pack.

The other day you said upper 70s, now you say near 80F. One more tick up to "lower 80s" and you'll get it. The dew of 56F down there though must feel nice and fairly enjoyable to be outside in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traffic was actually light but down towards the casino it was another story. I saw pictures and the crowds were filling the streets for blocks down towards State St. Along with the closures, I think you made a good choice.
