Two ugly losses to a lowly A’s team and two hits in last 14 innings . After the UConn loss. Not a great time here

I’ve been picking them off the dog and myself for almost 2 weeks.

All these folks that have ticks. How often do you get the yard sprayed?

"Summer-like warmth arrives early next week. Highs well into
  the 60s to the lower 70s Mon and potentially 80+ Tue. Duration
  of warmth is uncertain, with backdoor cold front lurking
  nearby midweek. Other than a few brief showers possible at
  times...dry weather dominates"

 

What's not to like?

I’m encouraging these guys to take care of them

10M+ households ain't terrible

Grew up in a very wooded neighborhood with a mountain very nearby with thousands of acres of forest…always was in the woods, and high grass, never had a tick ever on me, or my sister,  or my friends.  I guess we were just dam lucky.

Same.. I was constantly outside when I was a kid and never got one.. now it seems everytime I hike and go in the woods I get them.

Definitively have not seen a week stretch like this in mid April any time I can recall. 
 

Awesome.

[dendrite]

Min 32.9°

2023, 2012, and 2010 were pretty warm early off the top of my head.

Door and breeze potential next week for a couple of

days but overall looks nice.

Euro is still a little wedgy up here Wed. Hopefully the gfs wins that.

Forgot about that warm stretch in April 23 where BDL hit 92/96.

Just looking at that ...

Euro has a 1030-ish high pressure moving from NW to S of NS overnight into Wed AM. 

GFS does not have that feature.

The difference is resisting and/or creating a warm boundary in the Euro - that look is nastier probably in reality on this side of that type of boundary. 

The GFS has, by an admittedly narrow precarious room for error, a W east stationary front aligned W-E, situated just N of you, which places us all in with the popular kids, movers and shakers.    heh.  

The Euro did not have this two proper cycles ago so... it could be nuanced and fake.  However, given to this year's shenanigans? wouldn't be shocker either.
