** MUGGY METER UPDATE **

It's generally on up from here! Our humidity will be on the increase with our comfort on the decrease as we continue to push through the rest of the week, head into the weekend, and then into the beginning of next week. Next week is looking particularly warm and humid, with increasing dew point values & temperatures climbing into the upper-80s to low-90s, dangerous heat indices will be a concern in the afternoons once again (with daily storm chances). Summer is not over just yet- make the most out of it because we know we will all be complaining in just a few months!

62/59 when I left the house. Solid summer days. Not much to talk about. 

With no real heatwave in sight, I'll call these the "happy" dog days of summer. 

Surely dont expect the respite from swamp ass humidity to last forever, but the back n forth for the next month would be fine by me, as the dog days are gone and the first chances of crisp autumn air showing up will be getting closer.  Thats a win for me.

Lol, not until October, at least, but I’m sure looking forward to snow map season!

October?! Did you not see this Maryland Mauler 11 days out?  Only concern is that with track like that and 540 line north of Goose Bay, ON we'll likely need rates to overcome column and sun angle issues, but were in the game!   Waiting to hear MU's take before I get my hopes up too much.

Following our first 4 days with well below normal temperatures we rebound today to near normal. It will be a bit cloudier both today and tomorrow. Clearer skies return on Thursday through the weekend with temperatures near to a little below normal levels for early August. Next rain chances look like next Monday at the earliest.

Just in - he's concerned about mixing issues southeast of interstate 81 that might hold down accumulations.

Well my Davis weather system was destroyed by the roofers.  Not on purpose, just a casualty of a full roof replacement.  
 

I might try the Tempest @Voyager just got but honestly don’t want to affix a rod to my garage again …

Some folks on my FB page asked me to start running some deeper analytic dives into Berks County climate data. Below is KRDG Airport average annual temperatures vs. KPHL Airport and Chester County. 1949 through 2024. Oh that PHL UHI pulling away!

All of those are up by a statistically significant margin.

For sure a little from around 53.6 to about 54.3 at KRDG....of course we are in a warming cycle for the last 30 years....but why is PHL going up so much faster?

[ChescoWx]

Updated 90 degree days this summer through today along with average 90+ days in a typical entire summer. So still time to get to normal at some locations. Of note PHL Airport has recorded 30 such days and Reading Airport with 21 days.

It’s smoky out there.
