ACATT gone wild . They lost this week to dews , rains , and smoke that they thought was CPC below normal . Now they are counting on next week ahead of the late month and Sept torch 

I blew last week's forecast highs by 5 degrees yesterday and likely today.

Everything ends up 5-10 degrees warmer as you get closer in. Next week will be another example. Big signals for more HHH 25th on into Sept 

It would be welcomed after this meh of an August. How many times have you hit 90?

Last four days below normal as we thought. Didn't we try to tell them?

I'm wondering if the smoke is dense enough to delay the fog/strata erosion.   The saturating of the lower levels by the MCS late yesterday is now a solid blanket at 1200' or so, but at the same time ... high res vis imagery reveals that the smoke, particularly bad this morning, is overriding this lower level cloud deck.  Typically, the edges of this kind of nocturnal cloud response would already be eroding but it's not.

Interesting feedback phenomenon, possibly.

Had .40” here yesterday. 

I'm so pissed. Initial cells around here developed virtually overhead and strengthened as it tracked south (at least I had good thunder). The second round missed me by like 5 miles to the west as the storms dropped south and ended up producing all that hail in Enfield.

It's been a great week ... a/c off, windows opened wide.  A big W in the warm season

I have a wall of windows to the south and west.  So as the angle of sun lowers, I find i still need a/c through September.  I make up for it by saving on heat in the winter.  
I set my a/c somewhere between 72 and 74, depending on dews.  In winter during the daytime, the wood stove and the glass brings the house up to 78-80, and you can find me walking around in shorts and a tee shirt.  At night, the common areas near the stove are in the mid 70s, and the bedrooms are around 69/70.

Average here was 0.1° BN, but we're just east from the green/yellow change, so close enough.  Also had 3.65" rain during that week.  Aug 1-4 was +7.4 and 5th onward was -0.9, which has pulled month-to-date down to +1.3.

Freaking ridiculous. I take a couple weeks during the summer and go around for storms and see shit but people get videos and pictures of funnel clouds, wall clouds, tornadoes, FROM PARKING LOTS OF STORES, FARMS, THEIR HOUSES, SIDE OF HIGHWAYS. Its b**********

It sure seems that way.  The low deck just doesn't seem to be eroding much.

Socked in up here.  Smoke layer must be delaying the burnoff.  Only 62F at 11am.  Models have a high 75-80F.  Even last hours HRRR has a high for Plymouth NH of 78F.  I don't see that happening.
