Right-we all live at 1000 feet.  I’ll give you my house in Chestnut Hill (Brookline part).  High was 81-similar to Newton and the swamp as you call it.

Some of us live above and we take!

Sell any cane near here.

[CoastalWx]

Sell any cold front too

[CoastalWx]

Man, even if there’s a bootleg cool down from Northeast winds, dews and heat come right back

We 6z GFS 

[Lava Rock]

no severe storms at all, perhaps the new norm?  SNE, not speaking for NNE.  also no cold fronts, just very weak boundaries.  Perhaps Septorcher we'll see a severe storm or two when an actual front arrives

Up until couple years ago, there was a 3yr stretch where we just didn't get any storms. Last summer was decent. This year, back to meh.

Last summer had a couple decent TS, after 2 years with meh.  So far this warm season, we had one strike within 3 miles in May but no others within 5 miles.  Only 4 days with any thunder so far, lowest thru this date since we moved here in 1998.  The past 2 weeks have given us 0.03" RA and the Sandy River flow is below the 10th percentile.

You love to see it

How about 8

currently 71/61, looking forward to the upcoming week of unabated windows open 

Well played sir.

[CoastalWx]

Actually got to 57 this morning. Lowest was 56.4 last weekend so definitely notable. Luckily that’s gone now.

Goes over ern LI into RI. 6z gfs is nasty in SE areas. Of course it’s fun to look at.

[dendrite]

It’s been a bit of a dirty ridge south of here with some E flow right down into the Mid Atlantic. The smoke has helped keep a lid on max temps as well. 
 

CON is -2.5F through 8/7. With the normals I grew up with it would’ve been -0.2F in the 1990s. 

[dendrite]

The sun has lacked bite over the past week from the smoke. It almost feels like a week long partial solar eclipse.

Off to the races from here on out with smoke mainly gone

Always has been a rad king!  My place can’t come close to competing.  Gorgeous morning today and my only complaint is I had to wake up at 8.

[Typhoon Tip]

There's liable to be sea-breezes into eastern MA and coastal CNE with that synopsis today.  It'll keep temps down, so using Logan for real world experience is probably a dumb idea.   Later in the day, this could possibly gathered enough mass to sneak a low level cooling west to a termination somewhere near an Ayer - Worcester position.. Not certain though because tho the look for that is in place, even the higher res suppress a wavy breeze boundary from moving W.    Prior to that the highs should make the low or mid 80s. 

[CoastalWx]

Finally, no smoke. And about right as we warm up and start shifting the air mass around. Fuck the COC.

Feels terrible to ask this and there are going to be some great responses.... what's COC?

It’s abbreviated for Chamber of Commerce. There are certain individuals who think smoke filled skies, lung hacking, and sweatshirts in the middle of summer as Chamber of Commerce. 
It’s silly because our summers are basically the Mid Atlantic now so Chamber Of Commerce or COC is really bathing suites, jet skis, and a rum punch in hand.

Folks from New Hampshire clogging 93 South to get a break from the heat. Crazy world...
