That's an August storm if I've seen one.  I remember such a setup in Aug 2003, PVD/SE MA got smoked.  Great shots

*edit* SST's aren't quite the killer for you south folks Aug/Sept =)

Yeah I remember that. Had big hail in Duxbury. @amarshall

We had quite a few back then. Probably don’t remember the Scituate/Marshfield super cell that brought baseballs to Scituate on 7/3/04

Gorgeous backlit CB on expressway tonight heading north. Expressway was flooded so we had to detour through Quincy. Man hole covers popping off by Furnace Brook Parkway. Biggun storm.

64° / 58° .  10-day forecast looks more than takeable. Best August ever?

So many great photos from yesterday. Most photogenic day of the year?

Looks like COC is going to win out in the 10 days starting Monday. It does feel like a bit of a seasonal shift with the cP airmasses trying to make more latitudinal gain southward. Days still look warm, but dews will be down again.

Sure…like I said, after Monday. Work weeks looking more COCish and weekends torchy.

Embrace the coc, it’s the only coc you have.

Another fantastic night in the 70s here on the shoreline. BDR and HVN 74 for the low.

Time for some addition now that the Great Heat of August '25 has ended.  Days 90° or above at the the majors: 

Worcester - 0

Providence - 1

Boston - 2

Hartford - 3 (non-consecutive) 

Anywhere north of route 2 - 447

That’s actually perfect. Any sports or outdoor/ yardwork activities and ACATT will be drenched in sweat and swamp each weekend And weekdays they have to work so can’t enjoy the smoke and coc k.

Air temp no longer matters, how many days above 90F is the “feels like” temperature.

But you rained every Saturday didn’t you?

Late March into June, yes.  Then I planted the garden and the spigot was turned off - 1.53" since July 1 and 0.00" since August 1.

That should get parts of Northern and Western New England moving into moderate drought territory.

any concerns with your well?

Already not liking the darker earlier mornings and the earlier sunsets...both very noticeable now and it's getting depressing. Not looking forward to the dark by 4:00...unless its snowing out. The thought of having a a snowstorm ongoing and its like 4:30 PM and already dark but its so peaceful and calm with heavy snow is very soothing. 

[Typhoon Tip]

Last week of the month may try to evolve warmer ...kind of a newish telecon signal.

Had several days in the 90s here.

At least the week heading into Labor Day  looks to warm up.

I haven’t weighed in on the great debate and I love summer, but the dog days are over and the step down is here. Still summer…but you know what’s coming next.

Hope so. Summer's too short.
