Off to Wilton, CT. 

Decided on a bit farther south and can adjust north or a bit south if need be...traffic dependent.

94-95 is probably off the table.  88 and mostly cloudy.

75 dew currently, This is what it’s all about. 

Absolutely

[dendrite]

Even 74-75 dews at the airport sites up here.

Still not installed yet either. Love it!

[CT Valley Snowman]

high of 89 so far but should hit 90 over the next hour.  

[powderfreak]

Highs early next week might be similar to our current dew points up here.

Is next week actually going to be BN, or just N?

Look what happened Thu just over the border in Pauling NY.  Hail up to 2" in diameter.

Serious wind damage right over the CT border in Quaker Hill NY.

NW flow delivers!  The LTG plot reminded me of July 10, 1989 a little.

Also, June 20, 1995. See here:

These were great storms. Found clear evidence of a microburst during my walk today.  Multiple oaks snapped off about 30' up and all the low level, chest high brush had their leaves flipped inside out and pointing in similar directions. Probably a 1/2 mile square area of coverage.

Quite honestly didn’t dig into it much, to compare the forecast here to the Champlain Valley.

Was just looking at the NWS zone forecast for here and saw Upper 60s to near 70F for 2-3 days… which is around where dews are now.

Monday

Partly sunny with a 40 percent chance of showers. Highs in the upper 60s. 

Monday Night Through Tuesday Night

Partly cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s. Highs around 70.

This doesn't strike me as anything too cold. About time for a little cooldown after this epic torch of a start to summer. Look at these forecast departures & percentiles for average daily high temps for the 1st half of June - unbelievable!

Can you imagine if we ran a full month of +9F? Wow!

Sunday

...Mid-Atlantic...

   Currently, the best overlap of enhanced west/southwesterly shear and
   MLCAPE near 2000 J/kg appears to be across the Mid-Atlantic from
   eastern VA into southeast PA/southern NJ within a moist axis and
   pre-frontal surface trough. Scattered thunderstorms may develop
   within this area during peak heating and pose a risk mainly for
   damaging gusts. Stronger southwesterly flow aloft is expected with
   northward extent into PA/NY and portions of New England. However,
   degree of destabilization is uncertain due to cloud cover and
   possible remnant convection over the Ohio Valley from the Day
   2/Saturday period moving across the Upper Ohio Valley early in the
   period ahead of the surface cold front. Depending on model trends
   and mesoscale details emanating from prior day convection, severe
   probability could be adjusted northward in subsequent outlooks.

Coldest week of our lives next week.

I feel like we’ve done it in the winter… or at least +7 to +8 recently up this way when radiating conditions are really poor.

Yeah, we did that in March of 2012 pretty sure

I meant for an entire summer month.

[dendrite]

95-99% percentile for the first half of June and some are frustrated that summer hasn’t set in yet.

This would be like starting the first 2 weeks of Dec at -10 with a couple of good snow events.

Going to have to keep the kids indoors and find other ways to keep them occupied if it’s going to be that cold.

It seems there’s only one person frustrated and that person will have some of the hottest temps next week with West flow DSD

Yeah, I hear ya. 

Fact of the matter is...we also have not yet to experience a synergistic/resonant feed-back heat scenario.  They're actually studied in climate as "synergistic heat waves"

I may be that we can't.  We might just have too many goephysical traits that make that less able to happen here, but like western Europe and Australia, the steppe of the Urals and over in Russia ... Chinese Asia...  The Pacific NW in 2020 is an example of that, where carried on for 10 days at some 35+ for high temps.
