Cold front of yore…err bore…coming through

Crappy? There's some overcast but the temps are warm and the winds are light... What's the issue?

Squall lines have become as rare as derechos and hurricanes around here

[SouthCoastMA]

random pop up shower overhead, with partly sunny skies but not enough to fully wet the ground 

very tropical, 84/72

of course, most of it misses me by a mile or 2

[Chrisrotary12]

Same here, was cloudy earlier but cleared up nicely.

[ineedsnow]

Missed a good downpour by a half mile earlier.  It was pouring right down the road and by the time I got home it was dry.. looks like we might get a quick downpour now though

Rain on Monday and Tuesday dropped about 2 inches on the area, but it wasn’t enough to ease the drought. Parched ground prevented much of the water from reaching groundwater supplies, sending it instead into storm drains. Forecasters say the region will need several heavy storms, with days of rain, to make a difference.

July 4 may have been the peak of severe season here.

Let’s get two tropical systems to pour on us like 1954 so we can get moved from moderate drought to abnormally dry.

+4C or bust

I bet you the strength of the trade anomaly is going to be offset for those temperatures - in other words somewhat anti-correlated.  Not enough of an anomaly to support that. Just a hunch.

I’ve long been harboring the notion that this El Niño is entering into a synergistic feedback with the background - possibly for the first time in human history are we seeing something like this at this kind of a scale?

And I’m not sure we can use that to cast dystopian outlook on the winter either.  It’s almost like if everything is warm, the gradient aren’t sufficient to generate the restoring to make it wild. 
Oh, I’m sure it’ll be one blizzard too formulate an argument against. But over the total winter? The motif … I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just mild and boring.

congrats EWB, MVY, FMH
