As a wise Wolfie has said many times.. things can change , no one knows , maybe it will maybe it won’t , we track 

Better than tracking phantom cold fronts that never really happen

Pretty impressive that not a single day in the next 7 up here has a high temperature forecast to be less than +5 above normal.

Normal is 78F... "coldest" NWS max is 83F next Thursday lol.  A couple 92s on Monday and Tuesday.

Normal low is 54F and there appears to be nothing lower than 61F, ha.

Positive departures are going to escalate rapidly.

Let’s break some records.

 that "climo" of 76/52... and it's rattling off 86F, 90F, 93F, 94F, 88F, 83F, 85F, 81F.

Climo drops 2F in highs over the next week... from 78F to 76F.  

Good grief those departures are going to sky rocket in flight.

That's a solid heater right there on the GFS...

The heat is back

Glad to be escaping the heat tomorrow to head to Texas.  Looking forward to the recurving whiff to kick up some surf.  GTG at Weekapaug?

Not much humidity , good radiational cooling with temperatures in the '60s at night. Could be worse...

I dunno, these setups don't scream good radiational cooling.  But I guess if touching like 67-70F at night makes the cut, then yeah, could be worse.

Dews could be in the 70s, true.  Instead of 65-70F.

I love how he uses AVP to make that point. 

AVP is not a spot that hits 90 particularly often (I don't believe). If AVP is into the lower 90's then the hottest locations within the region are into the mid to upper 90's and EWR is probably 100. AVP is our ORH.

Where is he “forecasting” for?
