A lot of models now bring in the rain overnight wednesday night. I remember a few days ago looking at the CMC and being surprised that it was bringing rain up into the area wednesday, since all other models had the rain staying south until the end of the week. It was slightly fast but it looks as if the CMC had the right idea bringing in the rain much earlier. 

Anyway I'm glad we're finally gonna bust out of this dry pattern. The ground here is already very dry again since we didn't get enough rain last week, so it's great that it looks likely that this pattern will deliver and give us the rain that we desperately need. 

Looks like a bona fide wetter pattern coming up with key ingredients coming into place.  Been a long time since we've had a deep layer southerly flow around here.  Would not be at all surprised to see some local 4" totals around this forum over the next 7 days.  This wetter pattern is going to really help lawns and gardens.

Pretty good discussion from Mt.Holly on the rain and thunderstorm potential over the next several days beginning Thursday.

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Following a record dry May and a fairly dry start to June, the
northern mid-Atlantic is looking at an extended period of warm,
humid and rather wet weather for the end of the week, the
weekend, and even into next week. The flow throughout much of
the atmosphere will become well-aligned from the south, and
remain that way for much of the long term forecast period. Cut-
off low pressure over the Southeast US will only slowly lift
northward toward the Great Lakes, then drift eastward across our
region over the weekend. Meanwhile, longer range model guidance
is tentatively in good agreement of another fairly strong
upper-level trough ejecting eastward from the northern Rockies
toward the Great Lakes early next week. That system may amplify
as it settles into the long wave trough set up along the East
Coast, reinforcing warm, moist southerly flow across our region.
The airmass from Friday through the weekend looks quite
convective, and showers/t-storms will tend to be enhanced with 
daytime heating, particularly if there is any sunshine. While
it will not rain all the time, and any one day through this
period does not look anomalously moist for June, the pattern
will be capable of producing heavy rain, particularly with any
training convection or when the flow aloft weakens. Despite the
drought in some parts of our region, flooding may become an
issue particularly next week if this pattern comes to fruition
and the ground becomes more saturated.

If it were possible I'd be in 200% agreement.

An extended period of generally cooler than normal temperatures is ongoing. No return to summerlike heat is likely through the remainder of June.

Tomorrow will be another fair day. Afterward, a potentially prolonged stretch of unsettled weather will develop.

Parts of Texas are in the midst of an extreme heat event. High temperatures through 6 pm CDT included:

Abilene: 108° (old record: 106°, 1934)
Austin: 106° (tied record set in 1934)
Brownsville: 98°
Corpus Christi: 99°
Cotulla: 115° (old record: 107°, 2019)
Del Rio: 113° (old record: 106°, 1996 and 1998) ***New all-time record***
Houston: 100°
Junction: 110° (old record: 104°, 1953) ***Record 6th 105°+ June day***
Laredo: 113° (old record: 109°, 1996 and 2011)
McAllen: 106° (old record: 103°, 2017)
San Angelo: 114° (old record: 110°, 1969) ***New all-time record***
San Antonio: 106° (old record: 103°, 1996)
Victoria: 98°
Zapata: 115° (old record: 107°, 1980)

At present, there is little indication that this heat will move into the Middle Atlantic and southern New England regions.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.7°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.9°C for the week centered around June 14. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.28°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.67°C. El Niño conditions have developed and will likely continue to strengthen through at least the summer.

The SOI was -22.71 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -0.631 today.

On June 18 the MJO was in Phase 2 at an amplitude of 0.203 (RMM). The June 17-adjusted amplitude was 0.605 (RMM).

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 85% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal June (1991-2020 normal). June will likely finish with a mean temperature near 70.5° (1.3° below normal).

For most of the area. Most of the rain on 12z Euro is thursday and friday. It's showing only isolated activity for the weekend. 

Good...we don't  need 4-5 inches of rain

 

1-2 inches are fine

 

Why are people rooting for 7 days of clouds at the total beginning  of summer

I wonder if the heat in Texas will eventually begin to spread north and east, looking back at maps for June 1936 it looked fairly similar and that intense heat did not really begin to move out of the south until early July. The real push northeast began around July 3-4. It reached the Midwest by 5th-6th and the northeast U.S. by 8th-9th. I don't suppose this will be equal but it could be a change in the pattern. There were actually some quite cool days in early July of 1936 before the record heat wave began.

Yes we do.

No it isn't.

Have you seen some of the reservoirs? Did you know that NY State is about to see it's worst strawberry harvest in decades? It's really dry... I'd rather not have a wet week but sometimes it's necessary.

Exactly. We need a prolonged very wet period to bring back up ground water levels as well. It’s actually been wetter on the south shore of the island than it has been in the city which is very rare during the warm season. 
Meanwhile, it definitely does not feel like the first day of summer!
