Crap had a spider crawling on my leg. This is why I hate shorts...they expose skin. I felt something on my leg and thought it was one of those weird looking flying white things so I slapped it off and then saw it starting to crawl and it was a spider. 

The older I get the less I like Summer (I will be 51 in August).  Heat, humidity, tourist traffic, bugs & crazy high energy bills due to trying to stay cool.  In my younger days, I loved all things summer - now, I could do without it.   

Fall is actually my favorite season & now winter is a close second.

It's definitely a notable heat dome. Yesterday's late afternoon high was 115, which is about the hottest I've experienced since living here the past four years. It has begun its departure east so we're cooling off today (109) going into next week as temps fall back to the lower 100s.

In Saratoga until Sunday - quite nice up here, 75F but a bit breezy. Just looked ahead and Tuesday looks downright hot even back home on the coast. Woof. The central air finally goes on I suppose.

Granted it’s only the point and click but I don’t think I’ve ever seen “100” in a local forecast especially three days out. With regards to the tstorm potential this weekend I like that there could be an EML in place:

but will
also lead to the eastward advection of extremely steep lapse rates
in the 700 to 500 mb layer from the northern Plains and Rockies,
which meteorologists refer to as an "elevated mixed layer".

Expect it to be wasted.

Euro is a torch Wed-Thurs SoP. Bumped a bit warmer there. Still the same Sun-Tues. One of the days could have a weak seabreeze, more likely on Monday.

Another horrific acorn year is here. Picking up all these limbs and they’re loaded for bear  WTF

i have baby oak trees growing all over my lawn from last years acorns. I really don't want that again. i am actually kicking around the idea of taking down 3-4 big oaks in my yard. there will still be some, but those 3-4 trees make a ton of acorns and fall clean up is no joy with all those leaves.

I liked your idea of a feeble kind of onshore wind unable to really cool beach/shore roads down much below 87 or so, while the baseball fields just inland have EMTs hauling heat victims away...

(well, you didn't say that but I'm havin fun with it )

This could also be a great way to draw sharks closer to the Atlantic side swimmers, huh.

After a few mows they all seem to die off

Oh I know..

Keep expectations low and hope for a surprise..A metaphor for life in general I suppose

Also the occasional chipmunk!  Did note 14,000 outages in MA and scattered reports across eastern NY and Northern New England...  Bottom line is the New England region has an aging dense hardwood tree canopy with an abundance of diseased and previous damaged trees!  We need either a derecho or CAT 3 to clean house...

Definitely need a good canopy cleanse.

Euro has almost all of NYC and interior LI at 107° Tue.

It looks overdone to me given the 850s. Looks like a lot of MU90s with a hundy here and there.

[Chrisrotary12]

MCS exiting Maine is classic backdoor scenario. Heat in jeopardy?

All these advisories for heat and here you have winter advisories in Montana and Idaho

Euro's been having increased run to run variability on details with this week. 

still, the ens are about at the ceiling for the means.   I'm wondering if this doesn't have an extra special sauce with it and the models might or might not even see it -

Oper Euro looks lagged/too cool on Monday - may be a mixing issue

I've turned a few on to those up here and they love them.

Yeah me too in spots. Can never get them all up . It’s infuriating

Not sure…there’s a seabreeze threat Monday, but that shouldn’t affect the interior much.

I’m still on the 97-99 with 70s dews train unless I see more widespread 850s around 24C. MEX has been consistently 95-98 in the hot spots Tue. I want to see something more exotic aloft. I’ve seen these 2m shenanigans before.

Imagine this forecast on the Summer Solstice...  Glacier National Park.  We can't even get that in January.

Also, yes it is at elevation, but they are going to see snow levels down to like 5,000ft.  It's not *that* high up (this point and click is like 6,000ft).  Would be like Mount Washington getting plastered on the solstice.

Saturday... Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 31. West southwest wind 15 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 14 to 20 inches possible.

Saturday Night... Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 28. West wind 11 to 14 mph becoming north northwest after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 20 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 4 to 8 inches possible.

Enjoy! One of my favorite places. Doesn't look like you'll get a thunderstorm today. That's a rarity.

Same page ...

This has evolution room, tho.  It's really almost ideal. So we'll see, but for now.  

If it's 98/72 ... it's not going to make any difference if it's 101/72 save posterity perhaps.

Also, many times I've seen big heat, for 3 hours in the afternoon the 72 DPs slip to 66ies while the temperatures are at apex.

Good friend lives out that way. Just sent me this about an hour ago. I love the West. 

 

[Typhoon Tip]

so it's made it to 81 F here

same next door at KFIT..

It's a weird combination getting these canopy leaner wind gusts at that warm of a temperature.   ...just anecdotally.

usually it's 3-4 mows. It's been like 8 mows and they are still growing.

Yes... it has always been a bluegill hot spot...

We got a few bass, pickerel, yellow perch and good size American Eels but never any bullheads. Do you know if it ever produced those?

[HoarfrostHubb]

So many leaves and twigs ending up in the pool today

[CoastalWx]

Yeah agree with Brian. Probably a lot of 98-99 with some spot 100s. Only thing that mighty argue for a 101 is that per GFS...we mix deeply and dews mix out. That might help offset the 850 Ts.

[CoastalWx]

NAM and HRRR are messy with the MCS. HRRR kind of carries activity into SNE through Sunday. That would cancel heat. NAM might argue for clouds. If that clears out in time, Sunday could be quite oppressive in the aftn. Some signs we have deep dews aloft with one of those setups that do not mix out much. Otherwise could be one of those mostly cloudy 85-90 days.
