8pm  73/47F  Sunshine.  Visibility is good but there seems to be some mid level smoke coming from somewhere?

 

Just a touch of some Canadian smoke aloft it looks like.

I actually drove right by KBED yesterday. This makes sense as many many sneezes were had.

good line of higher CAPEed convection 21z on Saturday outta do the trick. 

[Typhoon Tip]

48 was lower than I imagined we would be last night.  huh.

Considering machine numbers tickle the chode hairs of 90, a 40+ is gonna challenge some delta records for the date.

Looks like the GFS is still just going to ruin Sunday even if it is fed the necessary grid data that would not ruin Sunday 

lol.  The Euro and CMC salvage that day with a cleaner fropa - though couldn't rule out terrain enhanced CB dappled around.  As Jerry and I were discussing yesterday, the cold push behind that boundary isn't nearly as impressive.  Weak as modeled, taking us back to seasonal as opposed to that 48 F shit.   Regardless of the GFS' beady-eyed OCD agenda to destroy mirth on weekend days ... it's own MEX machine numbers are still near 80 from BDL-FIT to ASH-MHT,  fwiw

We probably have finally graduated to 2026's summer.  We'll see what it has in store...   After a possible run in with renewed heat middle of next week, there may either be a transient seasonal cool down.. or possibly we evolve a quasi Bahama Blue pattern. 

[Typhoon Tip]

Heh...it's rare to do this once with near/at 0% coverage, but this is the 2nd day, back-to-back, that sat presented this at a regional scale

 

[Typhoon Tip]

I wonder if these low wind open sky lasing days over the nearby ocean will elevate the SSTs some

[Typhoon Tip]

oh..heh... just realized no one's in here.    Geez, better go make sure the Iran-Russian-China axis didn't smuggle a nuke up the Potomac

Hopefully we can bring small pox back so kids don’t have to worry about that evil pollen.

Already 68° off of a min of 51.8°. Pawpaws and catalpas are waking up.

Same here, but by 10am… 43F to 73F.

83 ... 35 delta

Returned from our SNJ week last evening - #2 granddaughter's recital (plays flute/piano) and HS graduation, also saw the dress rehearsal of her school's mounting of "Annie".  She had her blond hair dyed auburn as she played Annie.  Got stuck in stop'n'go from south of Lowell nearly to Haverhill, no AC, car temp 89-90.  1,136 total miles.
Last Saturday we had wind tossing twigs from the sycamores and temp topping about 65 - norm there for 5/30 is 78-80.  While we were away, our temp ranged from 31 (late frost, perhaps Sunday morning?) to 84 (probably yesterday), and 1.02" rain.

Timing is speeding up even more. May end up being a south and east of HFD day

Just had a yearly physical the other day.  Doc told me I was on the cusp of what was apparently a not very good old MMR vaccine due to my age, and if I wanted a new one.

mm far as I can tell it's only the NAM doing that.   Wouldn't trust it until more support ... but not impossible, no. 

I suppose if you really want it to be right so that you can engage and hopefully win another in the varied petty competitions over weather-related statements that goes on in here, there's nothing wrong with relying on it to make Kevin wrong.

LOL

[Torch Tiger]

Hopefully Saturday is a flooder with training storms, especially south of pike!

[Damage In Tolland]

Saturday is dry for most of SNE

Confidence continues to increase that most, if not all, of the
daylight hours Saturday remain dry, though a brief afternoon shower
cannot be ruled out northwest of the I-91 corridor as a front
approaches from northern New England. Given summerlike warmth and
modest humidity

It has unfortunately been exposed often enough, times of misguidance wrt to drug and vaccine therapies (regardless of why) that it's naive and ill-advised now to rely on in-office recommendations, out of hand.   You instead should nod thoughtfully and tell the physician not at this time.   If the they push ... particularly in that sort of situation, then you respectfully decline and tell them that you will be completing some independent research 'like you always do' before arriving to any course of action.

Saturday will have showers and thunderstorms late in the afternoon in western mass and then spreading east  after about 5-6 pm. Could be a few decent boomers around. Looks like another chance of showers and storms Sunday afternoon in SNE particularly closer to the coast with some convergence.

[CoastalWx]

Nice summer day out there. 88.
